What's with Advanced Power Armor MKII in Fo3?

Don't forget that the PA in Fallout 3 gives you protection against radiation while wearing nothing but cloth gloves, its just lazy of them to not even change the character hands animation while wearing PA, i think it was the same shit with the enviromental/rad suit.
I played vanilla Fallout 3 wearing the rangers combat armor, it was way better than the PA, go figure.
The F3 compendium mod, and some other mods alter the weapons dmg, so a missile hit usually kills you, the only problem were the overpowering assault rifles.

Yes, I think that is one of Bethesda's problems. They invoke the Rule of Cool too much, and too shoddly. I don't mind Rule of Cool, hell, Fallout has a lot of rule of cool (the setting itself is rule of cool), but with a proper mix with consistency, realism, moral ambiguity, black humor and grimdarkness with a bit of 50s optimism and some idealism. But Bethesda fails to invoke the Rule of Cool because it overdoes it. Fallout 1 and 2 can do Rule of Cool, Fallout 3 fails it.

It's ass-ugly armor. Standard Power Armor doesn't look bad at all IMO in FO3, shame it's so worthless. Rather have Ranger Battle Armor.
Oblivion with guns. Oblivion with guns. Oblivion with guns. EVERYWHERE you look in this game you're reminded of that. I particularly don't appreciate their bastardization of SPECIAL and the Tag Skill system. Blatantly Oblivion-inspired.

It looks ugly as all hell. Standing, shoulder blades sticking a foot on either side, and it's too God-damned small.
I hate it how badly Bethesda ret-conned the artistic feel of Fallout.

I SO just saved that image to use as a desktop wallpaper.
Also, the pauldrons are too big, that I'll grant. Too small? I personally didn't think it looked too small, though it was obviously not as beefy as T-51b armor from the first two Fallouts.
I would like to weigh in on the BoS APA from Tictacs. I think it's fucking terrible. I liked the look of the Environmental Armor, though I doubt that it is anything even REMOTELY close to canon.

The Powerarmor of Fallout had to be squzed in to the animations of Oblivion which are copy pasted (almost) for Fallout 3.
No surprise the thing is "to small" or looks like it doesnt fitt. If they would have at least with the Powerarmor bothered at least once in their life as programmers/designers to make seperate animations and models. Even the armor values are almost straight out of Oblivion. Just one damage and one resistance ... no surprise the PA in F3 sucks so bad. Or letz say it with different words feels so "mediocre" like a standart armor.

I just remembered that one time when a long-time VBR member came back and asked me some things about Fallout, and I told him about the enchanted itens using Linlcoln's Hat as a example. Hilarity Ensued!
And it explains why Lincoln was so badass, too!

What is that symbol on Rhombus' right shoulder pad? It's distinct from the original Fallout 1 BoS symbol.... Rhombus wasn't a scribe so the gear doesn't make any sense... it's on Cabbot's suit as well.
Is this Brotherhood symbol covered in the Bible or any other sources?

By looking at Rhombus and comparing it to Fallout 3 I really cant understand how people seriously think its "worse" in graphics.
I mean its just a cutsence, a talking head, a short occurance, yes. But look at the details men! And that was the 90s. And now compare it with what they at Bethesda made ... one cant tell me thats the BEST they could do ...

Does Fallout 3 even have cutscenes?

A right proper chap.
Actually I did, looks really weird having a little grinning face on your armour.
