The Fallout Screenshot Thread, For FO3, NV and their DLC Options

[Acadian]

A great collection of Hecate’s travels and adventures in the desert. The Scorpion Queen makes for an impressive bbq. Looks like Sunny believes Hecate is stylin’ – I agree. While taking aim is an ultra cool shot, I absolutely love Mojave sunset - Girl, gun, cacti, desert, sunset *sigh* - just doesn’t get much better than that.

[Lopov]

Nice that she roasted the scorpion queen. I find radscorpions the most repulsive of all creatures, also because they make a creepy sound if they're close.

Is that Hecate's saloon attire? It looks good, I bet that Ms Smiles is slightly jealous.

I'm glad she helped those caravaneers against the Legion, they'd definitely get killed if she didn't intervene. These days I use mods that make caravans better protected.

Beautiful sunset, beautiful Hecate.

Don't be so sure about that Nightking being gone for good. I encountered him again in a few of my playthroughs, probably because of some respawning-related bug.

Let's give the Hobo some rest and meet a newcomer in the Capital Wasteland --> half-android SX4-Volodymyr.

The man in black

SX4 received his orders from the Overseer and is ready to pursue James.

Direction: Megaton

For those not familiar with Fallout, Megaton is that heap of rust in the center.

Talk among friends

SX4 is able to scan through data of various robots, receiving their visual recordings - that's how he "saw" that James came to Megaton but already left.

Face to remember

Jenny's comment couldn't be more on the spot.

He came and left

After finding out where James went, the half-android left the town at night.

And ran into crazy sniper Sam Warrick

The blue ray is in fact a bullet from SX4's weapon.

Uncle Sam vaporized and embraced in blue

A classic Lopov's shot for the end.

[Acadian]

Lopov, great concept and I'll bet great fun to RP. Even the name SX4 is cool. Neat shot with robbie the robot and I love the little blue sparklies all around Sam.

[SubRosa]

I love the pic of SX4 hacking Deputy Weld!

Looks like Sam Warrick is going to get his atoms pulverized!

Very cool to see SX4 in action.

[Lopov]

@Acadian - thanks, it's indeed an interesting roleplay. Maybe I overpowered him with some stats and resistances but it's okay, after all, a supreme android should be slightly above wasteland creatures.

@SubRosa - thanks, the hacking shot is my favorite as well. It looks like I always encounter Sam Warrick as my first random encounter, the Hobo also met him after making a few steps.

Night vision ON

As I said in another thread, the NV uses action points as power source so it doesn't last very long but it's useful for quick scouting.

Super Duper Pulverizer

SX4 cleaning out the Super Duper Mart.

Explosion 1

Mad brahmin were running towards SX4 and instead of shooting at them, he blew up the car next to them.

Explosion 2

This time there were mutants and centaurs in question.

"Anchorage...sounds familiar...aargh, the headache!"

Encountering pieces of the past makes SX4 remind him of his previous life, unfortunately chips in his head are trying to suppress this and as such cause him immense headaches.

Night vision ON again

It glows no more

And neither it roams

[SubRosa]

I have tried some of those nightvision mods, but the green color eventually got to me, so I stopped using them. Instead I made the nights brighter.

Oh no, did SX4 nuke the Wasteland Captive that the Super Mutants have in one of those tents?

Poor SX4/Voldy.

Actually, I think it is still glowing! It must have a half-life...

SX4 in the wasteland! The night vision effect looks cool but, I can see where too much of it might get old. I love that pulverizer weapon that turns foes into pretty blue sparkly bits! Of course that fire bomb weapon thing looks pretty impressive as well. Sorry ‘bout his headaches. Sounds like some programming to help keep him focused on task.

[SubRosa]

Acadian: I recall some good sunset pics of Hecate in the Capital Wasteland, so I had to stop and take advantage of the twilight hours when I saw the chance for that sunset pic. I am sure you see plenty of sunsets, desert, and cacti out in New Vegas yourself...


Lopov: I don't like all those eyes that radscorpions have. No creature needs that many eyes. Nor that many legs really. Though they are still not as bad as spiders in my book. But I will never be a fan of arthropods in general. I know the sound you mean, that clicking noise of either their legs, or pincers, clacking against one another.

I think protecting the caravans is one of the most pragmatic reasons for siding against the Legion in New Vegas. Even Loviatar - who would just as soon eat everyone - would rather have the caravans around for their useful services over the Legion.


Hold Up

You know how this ends

Now Hecate has a sword

These ghouls are out of this world

Taking a well-deserved break

Super Tuesday

Walk into the light

[Renee]

It's hard to keep up with you folks! Lots of lovely shots & commentary.

[Lopov]

How nice - ghouls came to the Rocketeer tour but Hecate killed them.

Now she has her own bumper sword! IIRC its strength requirements are quite high.

It's the GhNASAoul Crew.

Does Hecate know where is the missing O from the REPCONN sign? I only found it in Blondie's playthrough.

Hecate for the Overseer!

I hope she returns from the light...

[Acadian]

Hold Up – As ever, I love those old billboards!

How this ends – Eeep! I’m imagining what Hecate must see in sight at that range!

Sword? Sacrilege!

Spaaaaace Ghoooost. . . remember that old cartoon show?

Nuka break is a great shot of Hecate relaxing

Tuesday – I love how she’s showing the election blather what she thinks of it.

Into the light – Wow, you took a subway tunnel and turned it into a mysteriously evocative scene! Beautiful.

[Lopov]

@SubRosa - yes, the captive got nuked as well unfortunately. Collateral damage.

@Acadian - indeed, the night vision can get disturbing if turned on for a long time. It's useful for spotting traps in dark areas, though.

Sniper's Bane

Aim

Shoot

Above shots were taken at L'Enfant Plaza, that place is one huge warzone and even SX4 had troubles coping with mutants attacking from all sides. He got wounded and crippled and had to retreat back to sewers to recharge himself at a generator.

It's raining ghouls

Helping the BoS Part 1

Helping the Bos Part 2

SX4 took initiative here and was always one step ahead of paladins so Sarah's thanks at the end actually felt well deserved.

Behemoth arrives

Who laughs now?

Ash pile that remained behind, wasn't any bigger than that of some smaller enemy.

Time to recharge

This shot was taken after DJ Three Dog sent SX4 to replace the satellite dish at the Washington Monument. Having been awake for a very long time, SX4 had to recharge his batteries at the radio relay / generator before heading on.

Blue sparkling super mutants. Now that is a new one! They almost look like Disney princesses, almost...

I think I prefer Purple Rain to ghoul rain!

Wow, I have never done GNR Plaza in the dark. It looks kind of creepy. Those explosions and the big fire hydrant club between them don't look good!

Glowing blue behemoth! The pulverizer was a good choice of weapons for SX4, given how unique its effects are.

Neat pic of SX4 in charging mode.

[Acadian]

Like SubRosa, I was drawn to the pretty blue foes.

Very cool shot where you can see right through his foe as SX4 is shooting.

It seems that he can self-recharge? Just has to 'rest'? Very handy that he doesn't have to plug his bits into some power source. Or cast soul trap on his foes. . . oh, wait.

[SubRosa]

Perhaps in the future SX4/Voldy will acquire some solar panels (a.k.a. the Solar Powered perk)?

[Lopov]

@SubRosa - I like blue effects too, I didn't know that they come with Atomic Pulverizer when I was deciding for SX4's weapon.

@Acadian - I "imagine" that as long as he's close to some generator (or some other running electrical device), his batteries recharge, so to speak. If it was actually possible to plug his cyber arm into some proper device, it'd be even better. The more advanced the device, the longer he can go without sleeping and vice versa.

Perhaps in the future SX4/Voldy will acquire some solar panels (a.k.a. the Solar Powered perk)?

Right now I'd be more interested in some mod / console command that'd make him slowly decrease radiation. He resists most of it but if he's around in some very irradiated areas for a long time, it accumulates over time. Right now I use RadAway each time he recharges but I'd prefer something "automatic":

[Lopov]

Eh, I'm a real n00b.! There is an official perk called rad absorption that allows you to slowly reduce rads, no wonder there isn't any mod to do this if the base game provides the perk. I'll add it with the console because its level reqs are too high.

[SubRosa]

Renee: Fallout is the happening game right now!


Lopov; Come for the tour, stay for the 5.56 headache reliever!

I didn't know they actually put the missing 'O' from the sign somewhere! That is neat. I might have to go looking for it now...

Thankfully Hecate did return from the light. Now that I know what is going to happen, the sacrificial chamber is not as bad as the first time. Though even then I was of course expecting something. It being the sacrificial chamber after all...


Acadian: Hecate is probably lamenting the sad state of Wasteland dental care in that pic with the ghoul!

Hecate won't be using the bumper sword of course. She prefers to kill her enemies from at least a hundred yards away. But it will go in her collection of strange and unique weapons.

If you look close at those election signs, you will note that they are not about getting votes, but rather not getting votes! That was an interesting Vault.

I have always wanted to get a pic in that into the light tunnel. This was the first time I got one that came out looking good.


Looks like SX4 could get a good charge here

The power of the Sun God

Big gun

Perched

Hecate puts her space suit to good use in irradiated Searchlight

Taking a break

Another Scorpion Queen

The Sengoku Jidai Wasteland?

[Lopov]

The missing O sign isn't that far from REPCONN - I bet you passed it a million times without even noticing it. If you want a subtle hint where to find it, click on spoilers below, if you want to find it out on your own, then better don't.



Oh my, the first pic represents seventh heaven for SX4!

Did the Sun Goddess burn the NCR?

The sign left of Hecate in the Perched shot should say "Hecate" instead of Novac.

There are NPCs in Searchlight? Looks like it's been too long since I've been there, I only vaguely remember some non-hostile ghoulified soldier but no people in radiation suits. Though seeing them rings a bell of another quest in that town, but looks like I forgot most of it.

Are warriors in the last pic a forthcoming sign of your samurai Hidetaka (hope the spelling is partially right) coming to Mojave?

[Acadian]

Oooh, robocharging stations. I see why you thought of SX4.

Sun god? Phhft, I thought the wastelands had enough radiation to make everything glow for centuries?

Woot! A big gurl gun!

Perched. . . someone’s been taking perchyposing lessons from Loviatar.

Bubblehead vs Radscorpions! Hey! What’d that silly bubble suit do to Hecate’s beautiful ponytail!?!

Ginsu Jedis? What is that all about?
