greatbigjerk Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I read a comment on the Somethingawful forums Fallout 3 modding topic about this and thought it was an awesome idea. The game is in desperate need of Jin-Roh armor (from the movie Jin-Roh - The Wolf Brigade). It's badass looking and just looks like it'd fit in properly with the current power armors.

Remo801 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Wow :blink: Thats cool ... and fits well into FO3 Szenario, yeah !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHammonds Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 It does look quite awesome! I still plan on doing a Necromonger Armor eventually but it might be for Fallout 3 rather than Oblivion (or maybe both) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatbigjerk Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 The Necromonger armor would probably fit Oblivion better, though if you could modify it to have more of a technological look to it, it'd fit in Fallout , especially the helmet.

GreyViper Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Those crazy Nipponese, what will they come up with next. IMHO the suit would be better used in next Wolfenstein game, but since we have so few info about EU countries armament in FO who knows maybe something similar was used.

greatbigjerk Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 That's sort of what I was thinking too, it could fit in to the Fallout universe as either Japanese power armor, or even the invading Chinese army's power armor. The US couldn't have been the only ones developing suits for warfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kerberos Panzer Cop armour is one of my absolute favourite armours from any genre. And if the person who makes the mod just so happens to go for completeness and add the MG-42 from the anime version complete with the unique firing sound of the 7.92 ammunition (as heard in Aliens when the smart guns are firing or in the anime "Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade") then I would be SO happy. ^.^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedyB64 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 That armor is awesome! It looks very fallouty and should fit in very nicely. You could call it Spec-Ops Tactical Armor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wreckless1 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 And if the person who makes the mod just so happens to go for completeness and add the MG-42 from the anime version complete with the unique firing sound of the 7.92 ammunition (as heard in Aliens when the smart guns are firing or in the anime "Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade") then I would be SO happy. ^.^ The sounds heard in Aliens is nothing like the actual firing of an MG42 or MG3, that sound was edited quite extensively to give it that futuristic sound, same as the Pulse Rifles (which in reality were dressed-up Thompsons). While Jin Roh is a lot more technically accurate with guns than most Anime I've ever seen, the Japanese don't exactly have real-life MG42's to record to make the soundtrack accurately true-to-life. Even Gunsmith Cats is seriously lacking in this respect. The sound isn't affected by the ammo nearly as much as you'd think, particularly in that situation. Having fired an MG-42 in both 7.92 Mauser and 7.62 NATO (courtesy of an MG3 kit), I can say that with authority. Honestly, it fires so fast (1200 rpm or so.. 20 rounds a second) that it sounds more like hell's chainsaw than a gun, in a lot of respects. I can't even imagine being on the receiving end of one. Videos you can find on youtube can hint at the fire rate, but the sound itself is totally different to hear in person. But given that rate of fire, I also strongly doubt it'd fit kindly into FO3 without a hell of a huge change to the way ammo is found. The MG3, the updated version of the MG42, fires 7.62x51 at a similar prodigious rate and .308 (7.62x51 in US nomenclature, basically) is already 3-4 caps a shot and very rarely ever found. For what its worth, Saving Private Ryan had some of the best gunfire audio of anything I've ever heard - but they used cyclic rate reducers in the MG42's to slow down the fire rate for some reason. :( As for the Jin-Roh armor, it needs to have way less leathery/cloth stuff especially in the legs and arms if it's gonna pass as Power Armor. Plus the red-glowing eyes would be way too archetypical and lame. What works in Anime doesn't really work for the wasteland in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
