| Posted: 02 Aug 2020 07:58 AM PDT The reason I think it would be .221 fireball is that it's very similar to 5.56mm but different. It has very high velocity which in theory definitely enhances its armor penetration capabilities, but also isn't too big a bullet explaining the low damage per shot. 5.7x28 could also be a contender as the P90 does exist in the Fallout world.

| Posted: 02 Aug 2020 05:36 PM PDT Of course there are cases like the Prydwen being able to fly somewhere but I think that's a very specific situation with BoS and all. What about regular folks? Say someone wanted to travel from the Capital Wasteland to the NCR. How would they go about that? Would they use cars? I know we don't see them in games but I think I read that it's not like they're completely out of commission. Would they just walk? If so, would they walk on foot or would they use... animals? I don't know if that happens in-universe (I for sure haven't seen any mutated horses that'd be the perfect traveling animal). Would it even be possible to cross the US as in are there parts of the country between NCR and the Capital Wasteland that would be a complete no-go due to their state? Are there any traveling services that offer to help people travel? Or do folks in the universe just don't really migrate? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 02 Aug 2020 10:05 AM PDT Surely they would've removed them from the surrounding area of their community instead of leaving them there and walking by them everyday, right? I'm also not talking about the skeletons that you find at a park bench in the middle of nowhere, or along deserted streets and empty buildings, I'm talking about skeletons where people and communities live.

| How common is voluntary ghoulification? Posted: 02 Aug 2020 07:10 PM PDT I know in FO4 that Eddie Winter purposefully took drugs to become a ghoul to prolong his life, and in NV you can find the body of Trash, who unsuccessfully attempted to become a ghoul too. Despite the obvious suffering and pain that ghoulification comes with, the prospect of eternal life seems seems appealing. How many people tried to become ghouls on pupose? [link] [comments] |
| Questions on the use and effectiveness of Power Armor Posted: 02 Aug 2020 08:05 AM PDT As we all know, the T-45 and the T-51 series of power armor was critical in the American victory over the Chinese in Alaska among other things. I'm trying to visualize the combat situation was at that time. The question lies in how practical a full heavy metal suit of armor is against, at the very least, an enemy platoon. I would imagine power armor would not offer very significant protection compared to a tank, so how is it that the Chinese, who probably have anti-armor weapons for their infantry to say the least, fall short against, let's say a small squad of PA infantry? You can't exactly sneak around in the thing. As we know in FNV, the armor clad BoS is defeated by the NCR, whose critical weapon were the Rangers and their Anti-materiel rifles piercing the thick armor. In FO4, PA is easily countered with heavy ordinance like Missile Launchers and sometimes even something as simple as a mine. I imagine that the situation would be very similar in Alaska at the time, unless of course the Chinese were ill-equipped, which is highly unlikely. So the question is, how does a metal suit powered by a nuclear battery of all things, prove quite effective against the Chinese when a well placed Anti-armor shot or two could have solved the situation?

| Was the Fat Man commercially used, or was it exclusively military? Posted: 02 Aug 2020 10:28 AM PDT I ask because it seems like an illegal weapon of mass destruction, so naturally the military would possess them, but in the beginning of Fallout 4 there's a commercial for the Fat Man, suggesting industrialization and sales of it. Furthermore, it seems crudely built and super dangerous to use. [link] [comments] |
| How come Behemoths And super mutants Don't attack each other? Posted: 02 Aug 2020 04:39 PM PDT The Muties have some sense, But the Behemoth only roars and basically Is a Wild "animal". [link] [comments] |
| Are West Coast super mutants pretty much human intelligence? Posted: 02 Aug 2020 02:11 PM PDT I understand that there are some dumb mutants but the same can be said about regular people. Most dumb people would die in a post apocalyptic world but mutants would be more likely to survive. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 02 Aug 2020 10:13 PM PDT In f2 the opening cinematic it talks about overpopulation being one of the causes of the great war you can see how big dc is in f3 where much of it you can't get too and you can see in the overhead map in 1&2 how large the cities are so why is boston so small? Was much of it in the glowing sea and buried or did the city just not grow like the others? [link] [comments] |
| Why people in Arroyo are native looking? Posted: 02 Aug 2020 01:41 PM PDT If people of Arroyo suppose to be people from Vault 13 who joined Dweller then why are they literally look like native american? Vault definitely was diverse, they had black people and even one russian, but not an entire section filled with native americans. They should've had pretty much the same diversity as real-ife USA with mostly white people. And they don't even have black people, come on. [link] [comments] |
