Bethesda Rapes the Fallout Lore Once Again

How does Sup Forums feel about X-01 being canonically pre-war, Ghosts canonically exist, and radiation giving ghouls the ability to teleport short distances?

>radiation giving ghouls the ability to teleport short distances
¿que?

like Sierra Madre ghosts?

In the new DLC there's a ghoul in a magician outfit that has the ability to teleport because of radiation.

DELETE THIS

adding new things =/= raping lore

>X-01 power armor being canonically pre-war now
>not fucking with the lore

No fucking way

The ghoul is even in the trailer for the DLC, you can see him poof away.

maybe it's a magic trick he learned in the pre-war time
he is a ghoul after all
right?

>loading screen describes X-01 as built by remnants of the government after the war
>hurrr durrrr lore rape

Learn how to read. T-60 on the other hand is the lore rape you're looking for.

>Ghosts canonically exist
To be fair there was a quest in Fallout 2 where you see a ghost and put her to rest, and Hakunin is able to speak to you in a dream-scape. Telepathy is confirmed to exist in Fallout, too. The Master could do it, and the Forecaster in New Vegas was a telepath that would read futures to people. So psionics definitely exist in Fallout. That said Fallout 3 and 4 both are ass, and I don't like anything Bethesda does, so take my comment with a grain of salt.

...

But in the new DLC it specifically says that Nuka-Cola was given X-01 suits for promotional/advertisement purposes.

>He doesn't know
Theres a set of sealed away x-01 power armor in nuka world. Not only is it sealed away but it has a nuka cola quantum paint job. So unless the enclave decided to paint up a set and stick it in there for some reason it shouldn't exist.

Welp, pack it in boys, I'm a massive faggot

I thought it was never really canon though and people just assumed it was

Go away Bethestard.

Although I'm pretty sure the ghost was Fallout 1. I thought that was in the Hub.

The Master would attack you telepathically and then he had a room full of psykers with psionic nullifiers on them. It's been canon since the original game. You could get a perk called Mental Block or something to keep them from attacking you. I know this because I replayed Fallout 1 recently. There was also a fortune teller in Adytum that could permanently increase your luck by 1 after he tells you the locations of the Cathedral and the Military Base.

I don't remember a ghost in Fallout 1 but the one I was talking about was the ghost of a woman in the Den. A drug dealer had her locket and you had to give it to her to put her to rest.

That was Fallout 2

Guess it was just space madness then. For some reason I had it in my head that was 1.

Yet more proof that 2 is poop from a butt.

I'm just here for the Toddposting

Plus, aliens canonically exist (and have been used to create such things as Skynet), and Melchior could evidently keep at least twelve mutated monsters completely submerged under a vat of toxic waste indefinitely. That's not even going into the dubiously canonical Special Encounters, or the cavalcade of retardation that is Tactics, or the talking Deathclaws. Fallout is a very silly series.

Ahahahahahaha

It's worse than you think user because he's right. Fallout 4 loading screens explicitly state X-01 is postwar power armor. If what you're saying is true Bethesda just contradicted themselves in the same fucking game.

Who cares though as long as its fun

there were ghosts in fallout 3 retard

...

What's the problem?

If you count the voices/hallucinations in Dunwich as ghosts you're a retard.

you never learn what Psycho is made of. It's just found in Pre-War military medical facilities.

and that's not how you make Stimpacks.

Are you seriously nitpicking the crafting? 99% of shit you craft is not made with the materials you provide.

HAHAHAHA OBSIDIAN FAN BOYS BTFO

those were holograms though, aren't they, they even flicker

If it happened it's canon unless later said otherwise. I don't understand why the Fallout fanbase has this delusion that just because they specifically think something should not be canon it isn't. If anything Fallout runs on tbe opposite, actively retconning shit left and right but leaving the actual event in game as ambiguous as possible except when given no choice.

It's like the retards who insist Mothership Zeta isn't canon purely because it's ridiculous. If the aliens had never shown up before or since then you'd have an argument but aliens have been part of Fallout since the very beginning, just because it's ridiculous doesn't make it non-canon, it just makes it dumb. Imagine hypothetically energy weapons were ultra rare in Fallout and could only be found in one off encounters, then Fallout 3 releases an Energy Weapons Land dlc filled with them, before going back to having it be a one off encounter again in Fallout 4. Would you argue energy weapons are noncanon? Of course not. Are they ridiculous? Yes but in this hypothetical you would never think they aren't canon. It's the same damn story with the aliens. They were always canon, Fallout was never a serious game.

>muh lore
you fags remind me of those fat nerds in the simpsons

>t.pete hines

I swear to god if they do a nod to The Prestige I will forgive it all.

basically this
even shit like Tactics, BoS, and Van Buren is considered semi-canon in that unless something else directly contradicts it, it's fine

>later on you find a big water tank full of ghoul corpses
FUCK
I WANT THIS

Jet is pre-war now

I find it odd that there are no robobrains in the commonwealth when the manufacturing plant for robobrains was right in the middle of it

You didn't even bring up cryofreezing

That's not making stimpacks, that's making Psycho, dumbass.

Really makes you think.

NO. Brotherhood of Steel NEVER HAPPENED. END OF LINE.

You do realize theres 2 pictures put together dumbass

>BoS 2 was supposed to take place in Florida and they had all kinds of really cool ideas for it
>some of this is probably going to make it into New Orleans if it's a real thing and not just a hoax
take the good with the bad

That's how I feel about Fallout 4 except Fallout 4 is every Bethesda game.

They're incredibly juvenile and the more you think about anything the stupider the game becomes, on every level with basically every mechanic

I don't understand how this is a profound concept to people

oh fuck me that IS bad

>X-01 canonically pre-war
>X-01
>pre-war

>The X-01 power armor is a set of power armor created by the remnants of the U.S. military after the Great War. It improves upon the pre-war suits by offering superior protective abilities. The power armor bears considerable resemblance to the advanced power armor seen in previous Fallout games.
>[Remnants power armor/Advanced power armor] was created by the Enclave's skilled team of engineers and scientists after the Great War as a result of a research program initiated in 2198, part of a larger project to develop various technologies. In 2215 the first truly superior suit was manufactured, entering service in 2220. Various accidents, explosions and deaths were involved in its creation but were classified by order of the Enclave's President Dick Richardson for the sake of morale.
>The advanced power armor Mk II is a model of power armor used exclusively by the Enclave military forces, developed after the Great War. Like its older brother, the standard advanced power armor, it's matte black with a menacing appearance, but with a few significant differences - it appears to be composed entirely of lightweight ceramic composites rather than the usual combination of metal and ceramic plates.

>Nukaworld has fucking mini-nukes as low tier prizes for arcade tickets

This is just 2wacky for me. Please tone it down Beth.

>ghosts
i never found those in the DLC
where were they

is this bait? they were holograms, you could even turn them off

BOO

Hines, we need the funny.

>Violence is funny
-Todd Howard on why he purchased the Fallout license

WHY IS BOSTON FULL OF ORCS

>X-01 is still canonically made by post war remnants of the U.S. military

>ghosts have been featured in fallout before, even in 2.

>No idea what you're talking about, probably not canon if it's only one account you can think of.

It was already said multiple times they were hologram hard lights. The courier even gets a hologram copy if he/she gets trapped in the gold vault

Stimpaks are made with xander root and broc flower, post-war mutant plants.

Stimpaks are also found in pre-war ruins in literally every Fallout game.

Don't let your autism get the better of you.

were there ?
i only saw souvenir cups and plates as tier 1

...

To be fair, anyone that played that dlc got btfo.

See:

Has anyone done a writeup on the new raider system with settlements yet? I really fucking want to know what it added/changed, but I don't have Fallout 4 installed any more to check for myself since a good settlement raiding system might get me back in.

>There's a set of X-01 power armor sealed up in Nuka-World, a pre-war area supposedly given to Nuka-Cola for advertisement
>I can agree with the second point
>There's a ghoul in the new DLC that can teleport short distances because of radiation and can resurrect other ghouls with radiation
Read the thread next time.

lol oh wow. contradicted in the same fucking game, huh? c'mon bethesda.

>Vault-Tec built a vault for testing FEV five years before FEV even existed on the opposite coast with an entirely different strain

Bravo Bethesda

>DLC it specifically says that Nuka-Cola was given X-01 suits for promotional/advertisement purposes.
>Beth managed to fuck up the lore of its own fucking game

Do they have writers? Or even a design team?

The worst part is you just KNOW Hines is going to act all arrogant when people play the DLC and complain about it.

so in that picture is he is crafting Pre-War stimpacks?

DLT THS

i'm sorry, but it's pretty much preston 2.0
you go to the guy called shank, ask him nicely if he can set up a raid for you, and you either get the choice to talk settlers out of their houses or just capping them
it's boring as fuck

>X-01 pre-war
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

the one thing they got right

>Power Armor has now canonically been given paint jobs as advertisements for private corporations pre-Great War
>Power Armor existed as walking advertisements for corporations before the Great War, when they were used in a domestic capacity for marshal law and gunning down civilians

This is fucking beyond wacky. Bethesda really needs to tone down the lore rape.

No.
NO!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TODD GOD DAMN IT

however

You better delete your post if you know what's good for you.

Did anyone at Bethsoft have anything to say about t60 being shoved in pre-war? How hard could it have been to make it a postwar Brotherhood creation, given that they tell you they can now manufacture vertibirds, etc. with the enclave salvage?

what does this expression convey

>this guy walks up and slaps your lore's ass. what do?

He KNOWS you pirated Fallout 4

todd what the fuck

did they at least add some good evil options or is it all extort money and shoot people like you always have done

>FO3 states that Liberty Prime wasn't finished before the Great War
>FO4 states that Liberty Prime was deployed in Anchorage and was fully functional before the Great War

BETHESDA PLEASE GOD WHY

well the whole power armor ad deal is pretty well explained in game
the CEO of nuka cola, bradberton, was in cohoots with the military, so he had access to military hardware at leisure for nuka-world
kind of a flimsy explanation if you ask me
also if anyone has any questions about the DLC, go ahead

>opening shot of fallout was pa dudes blasting motherfuckers with an american flag in the background
c'mon brah it fits the lore.
>this is an issue and not t45D

Why are Fallout fans so autistic? HOLY FUCK WHO CARES, IT IS A VIDEO GAME.

The amount of time you are wasting discussing these non-existing things can be used on doing something productive or playing video games.

Except no because they were fucking holograms, you dumb cunt.

So how does the creator of Nuka Cola survive for over 200 years

They just don't care anymore, I'm sure more than half of the playerbase doesn't even know what Anchorage means

What kind of evil shit can you do

fuck off, Pete.

B-but power armor dude!

It's an iconic piece of the Fallout™ Franchise! Bethesda should absolutely take every opportunity to shove it into the player's face just like they do with bottlecaps, nuka cola and the fallout boy and never forget the highly memorable quote "war, war never changes"!

So he was so in-cohoots with the military he got a power armor suit 200 years early?

you ever watched futurama ?
...yeah, pretty much that

>post yfw Avellone said Bethesda skims wiki articles to source lore
