disappointed with lack of Power armor

[mastertenerife]

I mean with the customization and the way we use power armor im disappointed about the lack of actual diversity in previous games we could find unique power armors with different looks etc.

 

I know we can change the paintjob and upgrade them a little but when you find all 5 variations there's nothing to find anymore.

 

Wouldn't it be interesting to find some old enclave mk2 armor which i love and i hoped to see, even if enclave isn't in the game why couldn't there be some unique variant hidden somewhere or the enclave tesla armor with visible tesla coils i wish we could find goodies like that, i guess mods will have to be made.

I don't know a lot about the lore stuff, but don't they have most of the versions represented? I'm definitely let down at the lack of Enclave armor, but I have a suspicion that there's going to be an Enclave related DLC that will include it, otherwise I can't imagine why it would be left out. You have to expect some more armors in DLC's.

The game has a wide variety of Power Armors already in the game: T-45, T-51 (the classic, original FO1 styled PA's), T-60 (closer in appearance to the T-45), Raider Power Armor (new to the franchise). Advanced Power Armor is in the game. It's the X-01. I wish the different paint jobs had more variety of an actual... paint job on the armors though.

 

 

I got the Torso & Helmet in some underground bunker/research lab in the SW corner of the Commonwealth as I was working the core storyline. You need a Radsuit or Power Armor though for heavy Rad Resists in the outdoors of that map region though. The Rads out there is really bad.

Yes, there's the 5 different types of armor that go onto the frame, but I am extremely disappointed with the lack of visuals on Misc Mods.

 

You see the jetpack, and you see some paintjobs, though I find it baffling that many just add effects and no visual whatsoever; I want my shiny chrome looking titanium plating dammit... and why can't they simply remove that ever-present rust on the metal? am I painting under the rust or something? At least let me buff/polish the metal if you can't be bothered to design a paintjob...

 

Nothing else seems to modify the aspect of the parts you're modding. Having different devices on the hemets depending on the mod would work; having the color of the glass change with the light would work too. When you put Tesla Coils on the torso, you'd expect those awesome things to be visible, with lightning playing around on the frame... nope, not there. Not even on the X-01...

 

Vents, hydraulics, rusty nails, extra gadgets and light emiters, etc. etc. would do wonders for the PA enthusiast, but nope.

 

God I hope the modders go crazy with PA meshes when the CK finally gets released.

Ha, considering how much customization we used to have with Power Armors before (none), I'm happy with what we got right now in Vanilla FO4, just over 1 week after release. I also want to emphasize that I think many around here complaining about customization have been spoiled by previous TES/FO games that have had the benefit of years of thorough modding.

 

FO4 is 10 days past going live. The game's version of GECK isn't out yet. Give it time.

 

And BTW, the color of the headlamps do change when you change the light color.

Now, I do wish the materials do change the general appearance more of the PA's but again... The game is 10 days past going live.

 

RELAX.

 

Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, FO3, FONV did not get extensive customization options until much later.

 

RELAX.

Yeah I agree about the coatings not changing the colors...that only makes sense. But yeah, I expect this to be a very popular reskin mod once the GECK is out.

 

Honestly, I'm probably more excited at the idea of someone making a high quality Iron Man suit and making the jetpack able to sustain flight. Then all I need are Repulsor beams and a glowing Fusion Core inserted into the chest like an arch reactor and I'll be happy.

The PA Jump Pack just absolutely screams for a Warhammer 40k mod, using Space Marine Power Armor with the Jump Packs that Bethesda copied the idea from :laugh:

And here I'm wishing there was more paint.

And here I'm wishing there was more paint.

There definitely should've been more.

 

In the meantime, I await my Iron Man themed paint, and solid gold power armour, and more ridiculous stuff.

 

Also, I found a guns and bullets magazine with what looks like T-60 power armour on the cover, and this soldier is all posed and looking badass, with tesla coil pylons attached to the freaking shoulders... And you're telling me that isn't in the game!?

 

What a tease.

I wish for light green, jet black, polished steel, sliver, quantum blue and bright nuke cola red.

 

And if it was possible, there an armor color in the monster hunter games called rainbow, your armor colors changes into a different color of the rainbow every now and then. So fabulous!

 

What I hate about the paints more is that the vault paint has no 111 logo. Like the hell beth?! Why not?!
