We want to create a game that is very familiar to Fallout players, but it needs to be better balanced for multi-player. And one more question about weapons. Screenshots look like flame sources are implemented already. Probably no scorch marks. Fallout Tactics will have a little more of an interactive environment.
Open flames are already in, but mostly as decoration.
It was told on the board, that in multiplayer we will be able to play as mutants, ghouls and other non-humans. I can't answer that at this time. In Fallout 2, you could not obtain Stealth Boy fairly. We are working on new items to counteract most of the effects of the Stealth Boy under certain conditions. Chris, you told many times that multiplayer will have two modes - deathmatch and cooperative.
