57. "RE: Fallout 4"
In response to message #54

Oh man, Pipe Minigun. That would be epic.

>Could also be "This guy just blasted his way into the building past a

It's worth noting that Tendo doesn't really know what he's talking about anyway; he's been standing there at that terminal like he's doing Important Tactical Things and if you go and look, he hasn't actually logged in. :)

(Also, he describes that beater power armor as "cherry". The only thing cherry about that suit is the color of the condition indicators for the right leg and left arm.)

>Then again,
>Preston tells you pick up a laser musket (a weapon that didn't exist
>pre-war) and instinctively know how to work it.

In fairness to Preston, he doesn't know you're from The Past until later. He might just have assumed that you'd know how to use a homebrew laser gun because doesn't everybody know how to use those things? They've been around for 200 years. (That you are able to work it is just testament to the fact that, well, you used real energy weapons in the war, I mean, how hard can it be? :)

As an aside, I so wanted to be able to take the uniform off one of those redcoat mannequins in the museum and wear the coat. George III is taking back his wayward colonies, Raider bitches. :)

>It could be that she was military but went into law rather than

Yeah, upon reflection I suspect the latter is the case.

The punch line is that god mode turns off consumption of ammo and whatnot, but not fusion cores. So power armor is still useless. :)

It was ever thus. "Jeez, another bandit leader is hoarding an important artifact in Halted Stream Camp? You'd think they'd learn to stop going there. Or at least cave in that back entrance."
