Well, not that much info, but <b>Kharn</b> over at <a href="Http://www.nma-fallout.com">NMA</a> has <a href="http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8031">posted this news item</a> that <A href="http://www.bethsoft.com">Bethesda</A> did get the rights to use SPECIAL in addition to snagging <A href="http://www.interplay.com/fallout">Fallout</a>.
<br>

<br>
<blockquote><b>Q: Have you purchased the right to use SPECIAL for any and all Fallout games from Interplay? </b>
<br>
A: yes, we have full rights to SPECIAL.</blockquote>
<br>

<br>
Of course, that doesn't mean they'll use it, nor does it mean they won't heavily modify it for use in <b>Fallout 3</b>, but it's a decent start.

I assume that SPECIAL is part of the FO license package; I doubt they made a separate line-item decision on licensing SPECIAL.

Odd thing is that the skill system (gain through active usage) is one of the few things I liked about MW.

Not I. I thought it actually was rather crappy idea, and poorly implemented.

But I also thought MW was a single-player MMORPG. It was as souless as one.

At least not every NPC repeated "I'm Rick James, Bitch." In all caps.

They can just hack the system, even FO:POS had a hacked version.

Tag several skills, after increasing those tagged skilled by use by 10 points you can level up by resting and increase stats.....
