Multiple ideas for mods

Aderod · November 5, 2022

1. M1890 M1 12-inch coast defense mortar as replacer for "castle" artillery piece

2. New flamethrowers:

- https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/55627?tab=description created in 2014 but still looking fantastic

- https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/74883?tab=description a great option to replace F4 oversized torch

- Far Cry 3/4/5 flamethrower would be nice "light" flamethrower in F4

3. Gauss turret as end game defence for settlements.

4. https://www.deviantart.com/sleszu/art/vz-96-Iskra-930037866 this is fantastic gauss rifle, but with some modification it can be a good replacement for laser musket, a simple laser rifle that was used before more efficient (but complicated and expensive) Wattz 2000 and AER series therefore was moved to civil market and not very "demanding services" prison guard, coast guard ect

5. Ideas for places that can be converted (in one way or another) to player home/settlements:

- USAF Satellite Station Olivia both interior and outside

- The Castle tunnels

- The Switchboard

- Electrical Hobbyist's Club cellar

- Nahant Oceanological Society Research lab

- https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Coastal_hideout coastal hideout near Mahkra Fishpacking

- https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Factory_(Fallout_4) factory an unmarked location near Four Leaf fishpacking plant

- WRVR broadcast station (copy of interior and exterior) would be a nice player home

- Fort Hagen hangar and satellite array both places are good for player home/settlements, I still don't know why people avoid those places https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fort_Hagen_hangar https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fort_Hagen_satellite_array

6. "UZI" (or something similar) as a replacer for pipe gun. From what I know UZI have few variants from pistol to PDW size and it also quite simple gun. I think that some post apocalyptic gunsmiths would have made such a gun themselves or reverse engineering pre war weapons. Something like UZI would be a great "wasteland smg" and replace for pipe gun.

Example of "UZI" gun in FNV: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/66778?tab=images

7. Colt New Service as replacer for pipe revolver

8. Winchester Model 70 as replacer for Pipe bolt-action

9. Winchester Model 1895 (or weapon based on it) would be an interesting addition to F4 https://www.artstation.com/artwork/3dkxvB https://www.artstation.com/artwork/d8zbY3

10. Heavy Rapid Capacitor Weapon (H-RCW) - I always think that Fallout lacks of "laser machine gun" a weapon that will fill gap between gatling laser and laser rifle. When playing Old World Blues mod for HOI4 I notice this energy support weapon based on Light machine gun from FNV, which is a good idea, we have a nice energy gun based on Thompson smg, so why not energy support weapon based on LMG.

11. Tank replacer - I always think that F4 tank have no sense and is absolute abomination. I see this tank occasionally but I will gladly see a replacer for it. https://eu-wotp.wgcdn.co/dcont/fb/image/npi_ae_phase_i.jpg https://www.deviantart.com/war-of-art/art/E-F-G-F-M61A5-Semovente-Main-Battle-Tank-448620635 https://www.artstation.com/artwork/nzb11

12. VT-191 Murdelizer very good looking gun https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/40035?tab=images

13. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/d4wkA good looking MG that would fit in Fallout world

14. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/g2J5lE Stoner 63 will be a fine addition to F4

15. Shipping containers as containers - I would like to see a shipping container that can hold items, of course I can put my 5 tons of steel in duffle bag but something bigger will be nice.

16. Electronic lock pick - Instead of playing the thousandth time hacking minigame player will use this new item Electronic lock pick to quickly and simply hack into computers. Something similar could be also used to open locks instead using bobby pins. (lock pick gun or whatever it is called) In FNV was a mod that use a Crowbar to open any lock this is also interesting idea. https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Electronic_lock_pick

17. MGX light machine gun - https ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXzn27vFb5Q

18. Robots with hands - I like idea of robot companion but big cons for me is that robots don't have hands so I can't give them a weapon whenever I want. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/0nzm04 https://eduardpronin.artstation.com/projects/VgkNo5

19. 20mm autocannon - When miniguns give much firepower to Power Armor, why not create "small" autocannon to use with PA https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M39_cannon

20. Wattz 1000 laser pistol - a proper laser pistol instead of laser rifle that was cut in every possible way to make it pistol size. https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Laser_pistol_(Fallout)

21. Prefab building - more prefab building so we can quickly and easy deal with settlers housing.

22. Relay tower as buildible object - relay towers look cool and I wish to be able to build it. (example Relay tower 1DL-109)

23. Cargo robot as pack brahmin - tracks from robobrain + few trunks will make a cool transportation robot to replace pack brahmin.

24. https://www.deviantart.com/dariofish/art/Wasteland-Cowboy-312995823 - cool idea for new armor

25. https ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAlZsuJWgtI - Johnson m1941 Rifle

26. Fantastic weapon inspired by plasma rifle from Fallout Tactics - https://www.artstation.com/artwork/PeWRX3

27. Tina De Luca as proper companion.

28. ArcJet Systems without Paladin Danse - You don't need to rescue Paladin Danse to fully explore this place.
