Re: Fable 2
Got a Hero doll and a Lionhead tattoo...may try it again later being more evil, I dunno.
Man, even this game has me thinking about morality and how they make you want to care. Fable's not like some games where it's easy to be evil, it's kinda like Bioshock where you didn't really want to kill the Little Sisters...Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-7009-7102-8818Comment

Re: Fable 2
IGN: Fable II: The Gunslinger
The original Fable didn't have guns, but Fable II takes place more than 500 years later. This is a swashbuckling age where pistols are as common as swords. If you prefer to be a traditionalist, there are crossbows available for purchase. Just don't expect to impress the ladies with a bow and arrow. A gun gives you swagger.
Ranged weapons are relegated to the Y button. If you want to shoot someone, tap Y and you'll whip out your pistol (or rifle or crossbow) and take a shot at the target. As a hero, you're quick on the draw, enabling you to easily mix ranged shots in with your magic and sword attacks. You can cast three fireball spells, then leap at an enemy with a sword slash, then snap-shoot him in the gut.
Guns are classified in the same way as melee weapons. The lower-end guns are rusty, followed by iron and steel, working up to master and the very rare legendary weapons. Augments can also be slotted to make your gun more powerful. In fact, there is no distinction with augments between melee and ranged, making all magical gemstones interchangeable with every weapon.
Each gun/crossbow has several stats that note its effectiveness in combat. Damage, damage type (bullets or arrows), attack speed, ammo capacity, reload time and range are all included for your consideration. Keep in mind that you never have to buy ammo and never run out of ammo in Fable II. Ammo is always such a nuisance in RPGs, so Lionhead took it out altogether. The punks of Albion always know there's another bullet in the chamber. Ammo capacity refers to how often you must reload. Since reloading takes time, this can slow the speed of your ranged attacks. Pistols have worse range and do less damage than rifles, but they also require less reloading. If you want to be able to get off a number of quick shots, then a pistol should be on your hip. But if you prefer capping enemies from across the river, then a rifle should be slung over your back.
Improving your skill with ranged weapons is crucial if you intend to follow the ways of the gunslinger. Your talent with a gun is tied to your Skill abilities. There are three areas where you can spend your experience in Skill: Dexterous Styles, Accuracy and Speed. Accuracy increases the damage dealt with ranged attacks and speed improves how quickly you reload your weapons as well as the speed of melee attacks. It's Dexterous Styles that end up being most beneficial, as each level adds new functionality to your gun.
Level 1: Roll
With weapon drawn, tap A to roll out of the way. While this doesn't help at all with attacking an enemy, it's crucial if you want to focus on ranged attacks. You can't block with your gun out -- roll dodging is the only option to avoid being hit.
Level 2: Aimed Ranged Attack
Hold Y to enter Aim mode. You can manually aim the gun with the left thumbstick, which helps to target objects as opposed to enemies. With great skill, you can get in some headshots, but it's not always easy. Don't worry, greater help is on the way once you earn more experience.
Level 3: Zoom
Holding Y not only enters Aim mode, but it now zooms in to give you a better view of the target. This is helpful for those who like taking out enemies from long range with a rifle.
Level 4: Sub-Targeting
This is where the magic happens. While in Aim mode, hold the Left Trigger to bring up the sub-targeting cursor. Move the Left Thumbstick and you'll target specific body parts. Shoot the gun out of a bandit's hand, blow a Hollow Man's head off from 50 yards, or pop a Balverine in the crotch. (Yes, Wolfman has nards in Fable II.)
Once you achieve Level 4, you are pretty much the deadliest person in Albion. You will wreak a mighty vengeance with your gun. One of the most effective ways to take on enemies is casting Time Control to slow time. With enemies moving at a snail's pace, take out your gun, sub-target your enemies and take their heads off in an orderly fashion.Go Noles!!! >>----->Comment

Re: Fable 2
Almost there. I just need to get to the weekend, then football will distract me. This game is sounding so freaking awesome. I didnt pick up Fable 1 till about 6 months after it came out (bought an original XBOX just to play Fable at that time) and liked it, but was disappointed a bit. Now, this game sounds like it deliversCheck out my Tampa Bay Buccaneers CFM Thread.
You too can be a 5* recruit at FSU.......

Re: Fable 2
I cannot wait for this. So close, yet so far away. Thank Gooshness for Nba2k, and maybe pick up Dead Space tomm (I am a sucker for horror games).
Fable 2 seems like one of those games, were you will be playing the game and then just stop in your tracks to admire the beauty and detail of the environment you are in. Last game to do that for me was Grand Theft Auto 4- coming home from a night of killing and missions and just driving around in the early morning with the sun just coming up and having trance music blasting and watching all the pedestrians drink there coffee or doing their early morning run- beautiful (nice run on sentence).
Next Tuesday can't come here soon enoughComment
