[MEGATHREAD] Fallout 4 || Contraption, Vault-Tec, Nuka World

It looks like it would fall over and get stuck if you shoved it.

The fallout 3 sentry bot would just drive in circles when tipped on its side.

But good luck tipping it, since it's on a tripod and doesn't look top heavy.

Ever seen the movie hardware? It's basically that.

I couldn't even penetrate the Fallout 2 sentry bots with a gauss rifle and the bullets travel at the speed of light.

lol what
is this just you being your normal self or is that actually what the game said

According to the wiki, the in-game description of the Gauss Rifle is;
"The M72 rifle is of German design. It uses an electromagnetic field to propel rounds at tremendous speed... and pierce almost any obstacle. Its range, accuracy and stopping power is almost unparalleled. "

So, just Tony being Tony.

I'm about ready to disable legendary drops. It makes the game too easy.

You keep talking about this.
I don't understand why you don't just do it already.

speed of light is a tremendous amount of speed.

[IkeTheGeneric]

When I say I ate a tremendous amount of fries it doesn't mean I ate 88 cubic tons of fries. It probably means that it fires really fast but firing projectiles at the speed of light is just ridiculous

[sir dooble]

speed of light is a tremendous amount of speed.

200 mph is a tremendous amount of speed.

670,616,629 mph (speed of light) is far far far beyond a tremendous amount of speed.

[Lord Tony®]

tremendous is not an actual measurement for speed so you can't really say how fast it is.

[plad101]

tremendous is not an actual measurement for speed so you can't really say how fast it is.

Yes but it is at least an assumption of the range at which it fires, tremendous =/= Speed of light

[sir dooble]

tremendous is not an actual measurement for speed so you can't really say how fast it is.

I can certainly say that it's not the speed of light, because that's physically impossible for a rail gun. Even by Fallout's often wacky physics/science.

[fireking]

tremendous is not an actual measurement for speed so you can't really say how fast it is.

and therefore you can't say that it travels at the speed of light

[Lord Tony®]

Yes but it is at least an assumption of the range at which it fires, tremendous =/= Speed of light

The word tremendous was over exaggerated during the 90s.

[plad101]

The word tremendous was over exaggerated during the 90s.

This means nothing, the word beast is exaggerated and mis used now.
