so this is my first post so bare with me on this.........

there should defenetly be some multiplayer action with this game.
heres my ideal on how you might add a mmorpg element to the game

V.A.T.S.
some would say that there would be a problem with the V.A.T.S. and online play.
i say revamp the V.A.T.S. and you got yourself a solid gamer loving MMORPG.
first youll have to make a DLC for the Online version.
and i say have the VATS a menu in your PIP boy were you set up your focused shot.(head, limbs etc.) and you pre choose were your AP will be spent on what shots.
then when you are in a battle npc or agaisnt someone, you would use the same button, but instead of slowing down time and going all matrix, it simply executes your VATS commands.


PVP
player verses player would be handled with safe zones like towns and settlements being no kill zones, aswell as a sorta buffer zone so far out of town is like duels only no free attacks. and once your out of the buffer zone its free for all in the waste land. kills should always drop a finger or ear. players should be able to loot a pecentage of what you were carring, and the rest is burried with you corpse in witch you have so much time to go back and get your stuff, after witch other players will be able to rob your grave.
its the waste land dog eat dog

GAMEPLAY
gameplay for the most part should remain the same.

We actually have an http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1112031-fallout-multiplayer-discussion-thread/ for discussing multiplayer and the Fallout series, you're welcome to repost this there however first please read the opening post as it contains important ground rules.
