Continuation of http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1185308-praise-the-devs-and-pass-the-ammo-we-got-m1911s/.

To bring everyone up to speed, we are now certain of:


Also, there will be fire bombs, war clubs, Yao Guai and Yao Guai Gauntlets.


And I'm sure we'd all like to show out appreciation to Josh, Chris and all the devs who worked on this. Hopefully Josh didn't have to make the weapons on his own time. :hubbahubba:

-Gunny out.

Sawyer said that the Compliance Regulator was an Energy Weapon, i.e. off my radar.

But like I mentioned in the last thread, I paused the video and compared the unique Service Rifle to the regular one, and it definitely had a shorter and thicker barrel, as well as a muzzle break. My first thought is that it's chambered in a bigger caliber, but the magazine isn't wider, so who knows.... Perhaps it's part of a full auto conversion, for longer sustained fire (like an AUG HBAR).

Also:
"Description:
An expedition into the unspoiled wilderness of Utah's Zion National Park goes horribly wrong when your caravan is ambushed by a tribal raiding band. As you try to find a way back to the Mojave you become embroiled in a war between tribes and a conflict between a New Canaanite missionary and the mysterious Burned Man. The decisions you make will determine the fate of Zion.

Key Features:
?New Terrain: Navigate the highs and lows of the steep canyon walls, caves, riverbeds, waterfalls and explore the lush landscapes and rugged terrain in beautiful and sprawling Zion Canyon.
?New Enemies: From the deadly Yao Guai and exotically lethal Greek Geckos to new hostile tribals, Zion Canyon is as dangerous as it is beautiful.
?New Perks and Weapons: Survive the wild with Tribal Wisdom or exact increased damage with Eye for Eye. Honest Hearts offers a host of new perks and weapons including the .45 Auto Pistol, .45 Auto Submachine Gun, the Compliance Regular, Fire Bombs, War Clubs, and Yao Guai Gauntlets" (http://fallout.gamesas.com/eng/games/fnv-dlc.php#hh).

With the Greek Geckos and the writing on the slide of Graham's snakeskin M1911, there seem to be some Greek themes in the DLC. Although there is the word Arrete inscribed on the unique Service Rifle (which means "Order" in French if I remember correctly)

Thanks. Edited the OP.

I agree, for whatever reason, the barrel on the unique is definitely different. It could just be cosmetic, or could be either of the above, as you say. One certain note: Josh is pretty thorough with his weapons. If he did chamber a Service Rifle in .308, especially considering it's a unique so it gets it's own skin, I would expect that the mag well would more closely resemble the non-angled mag well of the AR-10. Maybe not, though, if that means if needs a new mesh. I don't know if they've used new meshes on uniques or just new textures. I shall look at the vid again to see if it's an AR-10 style mag well.

Got a good image of the new http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t204/Leviathan451/unique.jpg

Looks like a snake-skin grip.

Yes!!!! Yao Guai!!!! Animal Friend perk all the way!!!!!!!!! :fallout:

It says: κα? ? σκοτ?α α?τ? ο? κατ?λαβεν

Translation is a little more probelmatic. So far I have:

1. and Scotland was possessed Procedure
2. and or Scotland this oy katelaben

Not workin' out so good. Knowing Josh "The History Major" Sawyer, he's using ancient greek or something the modern web translators are struggling with.
Figured it out. It's from the Greek New Testiment

John 1:1-51

and the darkness did not comprehend it.
-Gunny out.

one sugestion pops up

and in scotland it was possessed

makes more sence

It's form the Greek New Testiment.. http://scripturetext.com/john/1-5.htm Scroll down and you'll see the Greek.

-Gunny out.

good eye gunny makes alot more sence than scotia

it's my new favorite gun i just hope i don't have to kill someone good for it bliviongate:

In the trailer you can see it on Graham's hip, so don't get too attached to him if you want it.

crap if he is one of the good guys i'm going to be pissed :/

Is this frase alone, or has something more with it?
It is not in modern Greek (Neither ancient) It goes as "And Scotland didn't Occupy this"
But Both σκοτ?α and κατ?λαβεν may have different meaning. It depends from the rest of the frase, if exists any.

It means "Stop"

if it is Arreté ye i think it means stop

-Gunny out.

i know Gunny, it makes alot more sence that something to do with Scotland still if a greek had trouble transulating it must be some ancient or sub language from modern Greek i know that greeks have some of does

I don't know when the Greek New Testiment was written, or what form of Greek it was written in. Not much of a bible scholar. I'm sure it's not ancient nor modern Greek. It's probably whatever Greek dialect was written in the middle ages.

Well, I learned something today:

The New Testament was written in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koine_Greek, so we can probably assume this is the Greek dialect that quote is from.

-Gunny out

So what r the new armors?

I am very happy about his info :bowdown: :bowdown: Devs :fallout:

SO Excited! I hope that there is at least one merchant to buy the weapons, ammo, and mods from in Zion.

I have looked closely and there are definitely 2 magazines for the Thompson. There is the ~20 round box mag shown when the tribal is shooting accross the creek at the beginning, and one later in the hands of a missionary (?) with a drum mag. This either means:


Since the second weapon didn't look much different than the first, I'm going with it being a mod, and therefore, either there is/are vendor/s in Zion or there is some other conveyance of mechandise.
