Fbos Renders info

[Odin]

Well it seems IPLY also sent out some info along with the latest Renders that were released a couple of days ago, here's a goodie:<blockquote>Spitting Radscorpions - Spitting Radscorpions are a step sideways on the evolutionary ladder from normal radscorpions. They have developed the ability to spit radioactive venom at distant targets. As a result, their claws are severely under-developed, used only for protecting the spitting radscorpion’s head. Spitting Radscorpions are usually yellow in color with a bright red coloring on their back and legs. </blockquote>Great imagination on varied enemies, what's next? Spitting Deathclaws?

Yeah, what's the need for two pincer claws and a poisonous barbed tail when you can *spit* acid. Stupidendous!

And the deathclaws don't really need those massive claws, right? Why, they can simply pick up rocks and throw them. That'll make 'em think!

Oh, Interplay, keep the ideas rolling.

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

Why would their claws shrink? They'd still need claws to tear up stuff for eating as well as burrowing.

Sounds like someone flunked biology.

 

[SeanDMan]

While that is true Saint, several generations of breeding which enable smaller clawed variations an equal chance to survive, since a non-spitting variation needs more strength and abrasiveness in their claws to survive, where as spitting ones would only need a minimum amount to cut dead flesh, where as a non-spitting variety would need to pierce and crush living flesh, shell, bone that was moving and reacting to attack. As well, years of using the claws as a main attack source would build the tissues, muscles, and bones themselves to be stronger for assault, where as years of using them only as a butterknife would basically weaken them.

Not saying you don't know this, or that they do, just saying...
