wellllllllll

no power armour? big mistake, you know why? cuz i think if you dont have power armour the end enemy is gonna either be too tough or too much of a wuss like a regular guy and you cant just change the plot if a game buy removing an issue, it'll be gay if your main ally (as in fallout 1 the brotherhood) or your main enemy (the enclave, and i doubt that they are gonna make mutants again as enemys) are just a bunch of sissy men who wear metal armour, it wont be a challenge like fallout 1
 
RE: wellllllllll WHAT!?

'scuse me, but ehm, It will be a challenge cause you don't have powered armour either! I personally would like to see some smaller more specialized armours, ok, so the people who use the herioc approach (go in guns blazing) can have Powered Armour, but I don't see how a thief would be able to sneak around in a outfit as big as half a car! I don't think the Powered armour should be dropped out of the game, but some more specified advantages and disadvantages. Fo2 the armours could be graded, from F to A+, so the choice of what to use is way to simple, the choice has to become harder. A diplomat in Powered Armour doesn't exactly look like a nice person. And a thief can't hide wearing one. A scientist would have trouble repairing small complex things with one because it's so big, but would be able to move very precisely (like in taking the detonator out of a nuke). Heavy armour should slow you down.

Oh, and just incase you're a smart-ass, no, I don't think having powered armour with build-in stealth boy is a solution for thiefs, cause the herioc approach would have serious advantage of it as well.

Power armor

PA shouldn't slow you down, it has all these little servo things. Actually it should make you FASTER. I agree that metal armor should slow you down, but it does, in sorta way (decreases your AC). And what slickaslash meant (i think) is that it would be weird if they suddenly made the BroHood go around in small sissy armors.
 
RE: wellllllllll WHAT!?

Okay... on a WAY WAY WAY! off topic, I just had to mention something.. there should be more variables to how fast/far you move in combat. I mean... in FO1 and FO2, you went the same distance running as you did walking for the same amount of time. there would be a penalty for running... I mean, most people cant shoot accurately while running, or immediately after stoping (ahem... can we say 'PERK'???). so you might have to run somewhere one turn and then shoot the next or something, but thats beyond the point..

"PA shouldn't slow you down, it has all these little servo things"

Yes, but can you sneak around in it? I can amagine that thing making quite some noise walking in it. And adjusting it without disadvantaging it would make it better, easy choice, instead of more specialized.

I didn't say the BoS can have any power armour, just modify the armors in the game to have more (dis)advantages and put in new ones to make the choice harder.
