Fallout 3 - Multiplayer?

Now I know that there is Fallout 3 thread, but I feel that this topic is something different than that of the original "general" game. I was wondering what people would think of a Multiplayer option for Fallout 3. Instead of having it worldwide and Drop-ins and Drop-Outs like Fable, but limit MP to LAN only and just get a program like Hamachi to LAN up. It'd be another great way to experience the game. Have it on Multiplayer Co-op and have fun in the Capital Wasteland. Instead of the actual story, the players are typical Wastelanders and thus removing VATS. Conversations would not slow the game, but players are immune to damage during dialogue. And have each player's actions affect the Wasteland. Player 1: "Hey can you come to Megaton to trade?" Player 2: "Yea sure. Be there in a few minutes." "Sucker." *Blows up Megaton* and the player respawns at various sites or possibly a "home location". Fast travel wouldn't pause the game, but it'd be hard to work with. Now that it's out of my system, thoughts?

I agree that FAllout 3 should have multiplayer, it would make it a lot more open. However, I don't think you should be able to make the big decisions in the game, Blowing up Megaton, stuff like that. Talking with someone might be hard to achieve, I think they should just have: If you have a mic, thats how you talk to people, but if you go up to someone and click "Talk." You'll go into this "Private Chat" Which is like you'll still be able to move and what not, but you're talking to that one guy and no one can hear you. And if you don't have a mic, all you really do is trade, with eachother. I also think, like I had in the Fallout RPG, that you shoud be able to be a raider, wastelander, BoS, Outcast, Enlcave, or a Vault Dweller. It will make the multiplayer that much more interesting, like the Enclave and Raiders shoot at everyone, so everyone is hostile, or the other players are non-hostile unless you shoot/ or they shoot at you. Being a BoS would make things a lot cooler because you could do like little mission with them, but I don't know. This is just me being me. With that note, I think Fallout Multiplayer would be an AWESOME Feature..
