Tacticular Cancer: We'll have your balls

  1. Having trouble staying logged in? Note: We are rpgcodex.NET not .COM. Trying to login via .com will cause issues. Make sure you are on rpgcodex.net to login and all will be fine.

    And if the Password Recovery doesn't work (there was an error transitioning accounts during the upgrade), use the "contact us" link right down the bottom right of the forums and harass us about it. Include your account name and its e-mail address (or whatever parts of it you remember).

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

    Maybe civilization will collapse and we'll get to larp Wasteland 2, with added Ultimate DOOM expansion pack. :troll:

    Confirmed. I used directly the credit card too.


    Now the project is up to 650k/900k, 33 days to go. I doubt it will collapse.

    To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if Bethesda chimes in with some 10k pledge.

    You mean the company owned by Zenimax who've spent the better part of the last few years taking Interplay to court?

    Bah. I suppose if they chipped in it would somehow make up for the money I wasted on Fallout 3.

    This is unofficial for now and I assume we'll discuss this with Chris Avellone in more detail before it goes 100% official, but...

    ...thanks to a Codexer who wishes to remain anonymous we now have MCA offering further incentive for our members to donate towards the Codex shrine in Wasteland 2 -- straight from Facebook:

    [IMG]

    A unique personal troll pic/avatar from MCA! Don't pass up this chance, o wealthier Codexers!

    (And now I'm really torn between a signed collector's edition and this...)

    Well I guess I will have to make a decent donation on my next payday. I haven't been this excited for a game since that one that is to be released on Thursday™, and maybe that game from the German living the life in SouthEast Asia.

    Just donate more. It'll get added up, I'm sure. ;)

    That wasn't me, so I couldn't ask him about it, alas.

    Well, screw you, guys!
    I actually donated 50$ before reading this newspost.

    But since my next payday is closer than the end of the fundraising, I guess I'll be able to donate another 50$...

    Since this game is all about the ITS, not having Cleve in it would just be a damn shame. I want a fully functional bunker with all of our Codex favorites, their dialogs guest-written by Jimbob so that they are able to properly convey to the PC the truth of how the world really ended. It wouldn't even be fourth-wall breaking.

    Let's get a team cracking on the design docs for this mother. I think we could probably pitch this to Fargo, especially if we can back it up with some dinero. :salute:

    Could only squeeze $15 dollars worth of blood from my stone of a bank account this month. I'm praying for Cleve's Bunker. :kfc:

    Are people stunned or what? Give me some feedback, I think it's a pretty fun idea and I'm honestly excited about it. There's hundreds of subtle ways to reference to this community in a way that seamlessly ties in with the gameplay and actually adds to the overall experience. The idea of coming a cross a huge statue of [IMG] in the Wasteland with a plaque reading "hopw roewur ne", or the Codex troll equivalent, is about as blunt as it gets when it comes to throwbacks, and when you know about it beforehand it's not even all that startling. This place already has a fine mesh of lore that could be interwoven with a general wasteland community with ease.

    Fuck yeah.

    :thumbsup:

    Damn... and if we could get Cleve to write a couple of his special "real truth behind it all" articles it would be truly mind bending... imagine all those normals asking what the fuuuuuu? and running around in pure panic as ITS comes.
    Jimbob could do something too... if he isnt insane anymore. Did he get better?

    Anyway, codex should use this for something deep.. i mean derp... no, no, i mean REALLY DEEP ULTIMATE TRUTH BEHIND THE VEIL OF CONSPIRACIES.... or whatever, rather than just a statue and thats it.
