Forum:Will there be Power armor in FONV

it would be cool if there were really cool Power armor in Fallout NV.Like really advanced and big.Like TB-25 in fallout 3 but litle biger skulders,legs,arms and chest

I believe there will be Power armor, but I think it makes a very late apperence, considering the Enclave won't be in the game and the BOS makes a very minor appearence. As for NCR and Ceasars legion, They may have minor Power Armor, but nothing major, So don't really Count on power armor ro be a big part in FNV. Fallout3Maniac 21:08, February 21, 2010 (UTC)

Really, I hated PA in F3. The best of the PA suits had problems, so you'd be stuck w/ lesser versions. I prefer the idea of PA being a rarity, and really powerful. Like a unique weapon.--Master of cheeZ 23:54, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Power armor is likely to appear, but the quantities it will appear in are probably low. Fallout had four suits, Van Buren had one. Fallout 2 had infinte amounts of regular power armor, but only 2 suits of Enclave armor. I hope that power armor is very limited, like F1, and I hope DT makes a return, to make it effective.

I hope power armor isnt that rare. Why would it be? Dont explode when I say this, but if I understood it correctly, the NCR and some of the other factions in the west are supposed to be powerhouse centers of production. If thats the case, why wouldnt they outfit their soldiers with the best armor available? If the BoS and Enclave can do it, why cant the other major factions? Raymorn 00:17, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * The BoS couldn't do it. They had a bunch of old suits at Mariposa Military Base. Nobody outside the Enclave could make Powered armor. Nitty Tok. 00:19, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Oh. Well maybe/hopefully, someone will have figured it out. I like my power armor. And what exactly is DT? Raymorn 00:30, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

DT is Damage Threshold. In FO 1 and 2 It represented the amount of damage that you wold completely negate. I.e a DT of 6 means that for every 10 points of damage you only lose 4 HPs Sheepbiter 12:58, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

That is pretty sweet, why didn't they include DT in FO3?--KieranBOS 19:12, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

I dunno but I like it! I always thought that my power armor would realistically (sp?) make me damn near impervious to assault rifles and this sounds like the answer. Though if they had included it with all the power armored soldiers running around dc small gun enthusiasts would be pretty screwed against the Enclave, BoS, and Outcasts. Raymorn 23:01, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Basically that's it. What with the sheer quantity of power armoured soldiers the game would be nigh on impossible if it had DT. Sheepbiter 09:34, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

Well that is a logical explanation, you just wouldn't be able to complete the game because of the Enclave.--KieranBOS 10:29, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

I think it would be great to have power armor in NV, it would be cool if there was a guy in NV to change that power armor. Like make it lighter or stronger or even more durable. The Chosen One 16:34, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

There may well be. There was a guy in fallout 2 who could enhance power armour for you. Sheepbiter 11:40, February 25, 2010 (UTC)

There was a guy in fallout 1 as well. Remember... Harden power armor.. The Chosen One 14:42, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

The role power armor played in the first two games was great. I hated F3 PA because I never felt invulnerable to certain weapons, like a knife. Those weapons wouldn't stand a chance of taking away my health. but they did. I agree w/ Nitty, DT needs to come back.--Master of cheeZ 14:37, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

At the very least, power armour in NV shouldn't get hurt by weapons such as the dart gun. We're talking Hi tech power armour being penetrated by rubber tubes and children's toys. Not cool.

If there is power armour, there should only be a small amount. Some sort of broken, bare power armour ( sort of like recon) as a reward for a few quests, but proper armour should be ball bustingly hard to get, like T-51b was ( but harder)

Or maybe have power armour which you assemble piece by piece over time to assemble a massively powerful suit. Sheepbiter 11:33, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Which T-51b did you think was ball bustingly hard to get? I thought they were easy enough... Raymorn 19:35, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
