The outside world's pretty nice in New California, besides the run-down buildings and giant flies.
I don't think they'll find a GECK though.
See kids, this is why freedom is overrated. The second the generic vault dwellers get a taste, they run directly into turret fire without a care in the world. For your own security and safety, submit to your corporate overlords
Cassie: "You're not gonna make it"
Two seconds later.
Cassie: "'You could survive with bandages and Stimpaks".
Me: "Decide yourself !"
But Stimpaks are these magical Panacea tropes that cure everything
In reality, the metabolism increase of 9,300% required to heal him so instantly would kill Rossman anyway :p
(ShoddyCast on YouTube: The SCIENCE! Behind STIMPAKS in Fallout)
For the stimpaks and the healing items, i made a auto heal effect to replace them and i am going to test it with Rico before releasing tit.
Also, machines should have more DT and DR but less HP than animals. Their plating is harder and thicker than skin but once a bullet gets inside and starts ricocheting off of their gears and circuits they'll just break.
I see what you are saying, and it has truth in it, however, you are talking about how they could possibily function after two centuries; on that point, i agree, it's the same thing about the computers and the lights inside the buildings: how is that even possible? Where does the electricity come from?
Whatever, it's what we call an acceptable break of from reality.
However, there is one point on which you are wrong: you simply don't get a bullet behind the plating: they are war machines designed in the sole and only purpose of waging a total war, they don't have weak points, or at least, no weak point so obvious that you could shoot through with a simple pistol: the guy responsible of that fatal flaw in the design would be fired on the spot and put in front of a martial court.
Try shooting a tank with a 9mm, you won't have any results, at all, never. Try shooting a WW II tank with a 9mm pistol, you won't have any results, at all, never.
That's the same thing with the sentry bots: they DON'T have that kind of weak points, you simply can't shoot through their plating with a small gun, you can't break them with your firsts either (although it's kinda cool), and besides, you can bet than any kind of robot that advanced has it's inner components also protected by a second layer of plating.
Shooting it with a .50mm antimaterial rifle however...
(Also note I'm saying a lot of this from a hypocritical standpoint. To counteract the fictional enemies mentioned above, my Skyrim character Lizzy was basically fem-Wolverine and Fallout 4 President Victoria was a genetically enhanced Supergirl.)
Saving before, there was one playthrough where I made it with only one vault security dead. Both Enclave PAs and all turrets destroyed.
But every one of them disappears into thin air when you leave Vault 18 anyway
