What armor mods do you want to see

[AltaSilvaPuer]

I really miss the Fallout 3/NV aesthetic of repurposing literal junk, sportswear, and other random things as Post War armor. I'm thinking things like the Legion's unironic use of football pads for armor, or the raider armor (iconoclast?) that had a piece of a tire for a pauldron.

 

I'd love to see some creative takes on that vein, because outside of the people who have recreated the aforementioned armors from FO3, themselves, I have seen precious little of this ramshackle style.

Some football based armor might be pretty cool.

Tho I think since it's like... plastic...ballistic weave would be a personal must ;)

Other armors from older Fallouts would be cool, perhaps the leather armor from Fallout 1/2 would be cool, the tesla armor too, since it wasn't a PA, but rather a metal based armor with coils. Also, with the release of Wastelanders, a lot of content will be added to FO76, the PA showed in the promotional trailer was cool, i think it is called "T-65", also, the Enclave Scout Armor.

Hats, mascot heads and other head wear. There's a mind-boggling lack of these types of mods.

 

There is some concept art for sheepsquatch mascot outfits that never came to be in 76. https://cdna.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/018/874/342/large/chris-ortega-sheepsquatch-mascot-outfit1b.jpg?1561053524

 

They look wacky!

 

Edit: I just wanted to add that I find it rather odd how you don't find any halloween costumes in fallout 4, considering how shops in Boston should be stocking up on costumes for the season. There's not even a halloween mask in sight! I'm also surprised that bethesda missed the opportunity to create a baseballl mascot outfit, considering how the biggest hub in the game, diamond city, is all about baseball. Heck, I can already envision the resident of diamond city practically worshiping the mascot as some sort of pre-war warrior protector. The best skull basher in baseball history, according to a certain someone. :tongue:

I think some mix and match armor mods sets would be nice. By that I mean that some -or all- of the items in one set could be used with others. Everybody wants to have a custom look but not a lot of people out there have the skill or time to create a unique look for himself. So if a qualified creator could string along a few outfit with gear and swag that fit on one another, it would be a major win.

On the subject of halloween costumes. That gave me a thought.

MA is an area that is really well known for the old witch trials. Especially since Salem is like...30 minutes from Boston IRL.

It might be considered lore-friendly if we came across some really old, "witchy" or "warlock" type clothing from an earlier era. (Not that in real life, said suspects had any kind of standardized clothing sets, but you know what I mean!)

HAHAHA! I can totally see "that certain somebody" coming up with some wacko story about the mascot being some kind of old tradition where they would come out and bash prisoners or sacrifices to death as part of a pre or post game event! ;D

I love power armors from the Fallout world, but now we have (I think) all the armor that appeared in the series, so we don't need any more. Personally, I love the Kerberos Panzer Police mod (F:NV) and the Commander version of this armor (https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/images/88818). There is a port to F4, but the armor could use a refresh. Personally, I would like to see something that would be in the category Marine armor / Heavy combat armor (https://www.deviantart.com/knightwatch/art/AFF-Antarean-Standard-Armour-30913737, https://www.deviantart.com/mcgibs/art/Tacterrian-Grunt-65723738). And I certainly miss the dedicated Combat Medic Armor.

I was just looking at your predator ballistic mask mod, Newermind. Maybe an expansion on that would be pretty cool. Maybe some body armors to go with it. I know, aside from the shotgun you haven't really ventured into the weapons modeling. But you've definitely got talent at sculpting. Maybe some of the daggers that they used in the first Aliens Vs Predator movie?

 

I'll throw in a vote on hats and masks as well :)

Honestly - What I'd really like to see is some honest-to-goodness "Tribal" armour/outfits. Remember 'Honest Hearts' and its tribals? Stuff like that, but appropriately US NE 'themed'. And of course keeping it 'scrappy', tribal-tradition gear, but made from clothing and scrap that can already be found in-game.

Actually, I can provide a hypothetical example (call it a 'request' even):

The "Red Menace Gang" are a borderline raider/tribal "settlement" built up around the discovery of an 'ancient test of power' (a functional pre-war "Red Menace" arcade machine). Leadership of the tribe is determined by the 2nd highest score (why not first? well thats because on this particular machine the 1st place is held by "GOD" and nobody else has ever come even close (It was in fact 'hacked' and the score is technically impossible, even for the player). The 'tribe' has thus come to believe that the machine is a tool of "GOD" and he is 'testing them' through it, by literally *being* the challenge they have to overcome. Thus the tribe is completely clueless as to the pre-war nature of the game and its "communist = bad" intent, and go out of there way to collect tokens and trinkets and clothing and the like that they think will impress their "GOD" (lots of stars, stuff thats red, etc, etc), believing that doing so will make them luckier and more likely to get the 'new high score' and become the new leader of the tribe.

There you go! Lets see some designs of outfits/armour for THAT! HA!

I'd say that there's not enough Power Armor mods in Fallout 4. Also, I remember loving this power armor mod (Fallout 3) 10 years ago and I'd love to see something similar in Fallout 4. And you can freely remake it or re-uses assets as you can see in his description: "Note from author. This Mod is officially dead. I'm not working on it anymore. Anyone who wants to improve on it, go ahead and knock yourself out. I give Full permission to anyone who wants to use elements of my Mod. Best, brothershogo".

 

On the other hand, the best thing that I'd like to see about a Power Armor mod would be a kind of metal-organic stuff that would remind me of Fallout 1's master NPC. There's a lot of nightmare-fuel material if you look to Warhammer 40k's Plague Marines.
