Chris Avellone has revealed some nice Fallout 2 secrets on the Black Isle forums. Here is what he said there:
karlmarx9001: I've noticed in the dialog files entries for gaining hit points in Vault City from both guzzling a ton of alcohol-z in the uppity bar and using the autodoc repeatedly. Has anyone got these to work? I suppose I could figure it out myself, but the only .int script documention out there is in Russian.
MCA: Alcohol-Z
The way it's supposed to work (I was looking at this this morning) is that you need to have a Luck of 9 or 10, and you need to buy like a 100 glasses of the stuff. Luck 9 should give you +2 Max HP, and 10 gives you +10 Max HP - bad luck characters, however, get penalties to their HP if they drink a hundred glasses - LK 1 gets -4 Max HP, and LK 2 gets -2 Max HP. If you have cash to burn ($20 a drink, each drink normally heals 3 HP), feel free, but as far as an Easter Egg goes, it's pretty out there.
I was going to test it, then I realized my LK sucked. Let me know if it actually made it into the game.

MCA: Oh, the above is for the Councilman Bar in Vault City. I just checked the Auto-Doc in the VC Courtyard, and you're right: What happens is this:
1. If you don't fix the Auto-Doc, and you're below 3 IN, talk to "Doc" Andrew.
2. Make sure you're hurt, then ask him to passh you up.
3. He'll go, "okay."
4. After you're done, ask "to ride again!" If you have a LK below 9, then you get +2 Max HP, if you have a LK of 9 or 10, then you get a +4 Max HP Bonus. |
