If it helps, I've had the most luck with the H'Dryzoid and the Bag Man. Those are the only two so far I've been able to semi-depend on.

And speaking of dying... would it be possible to make it so we don't have to wait until the next day to play when we die? Maybe an hour or two?

It is the 21st century afterall... I'm not hogging your phone lines anymore.

*addiction rears its ugly head*

I used to be addicted to this game about 10 years ago... amazing I finally found people still playing it. I just managed to get myself killed by falling through a hole without a rope, but glad to be playing again .

Anyway, I seem to remember being able to have a laptop in this game and sometimes you would find discs in the wastelands that would let you install new programs that did various useful things. It was very cool. Am I crazy or did that used to be a feature of this game? What happened to it?
