Isn't it funny how no matter how throughly you prove their argument has no merit whatsoever, some ~~trolls~~ people just can't let go?

Seeing as to some other posts you've made in the past, I take it you're trolling here. Not that he has a very good side of the argument.

Also wasn't it impossible to take a pip-boy off? I seem to remember someone said that.

Sarah mentions that she knew him.

END OF DISCUSSION. If the game Devs wanted him to be someone else, they would have put evidence of it in game

It's like the Moon Landings.

All those conspiracy theorists arguing the US faked the whole thing. And all of them forgetting that there was a space race on and the Soviet's tracked Apollo 11 all the way there, tracked the landing and tracked them all the way back.

Sometimes logical evidence isn't enough.

The Pip-boy is'nt IMPOSSIBLE to take off, I mean maybe older PB-3000's were unremovable, But If i remember somewhere, Someone said if you relax your arm you can slip right out of it.

You convinced me. Hooray. As a doctor he doesn't know how to kill. :spotted owl:

yeah because this totally explains how an 18 year old Vault Dweller goes into the outside world and almost single handedly kills half the [censored] population in Washington D.C. just to find his daddy.

by that logic, the hero from fallout 1 wouldnt have been able to stop a mutant army

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 7:44 pm

Which he himself says in one of the earliest quests in the game.

Spoiler

When you ask him for help in the "Ghost Town Gunfight" quest, he states that he's no good in a fight."

anyway guys i gtg but ill prove you wrong lol

If your performance so far is any indication, no you won't. You'll just continue to get shot down in flames.

It's like the Moon Landings.

Aye, precisely.

yes, but because of a bum leg, which he likely injured in his travels as a roaming docter.

His wife is dead. Would you want to talk about that? No.

Then why in fallout 3 on your 10th birthday if you talk to stanley or whatever his name is, he says that the pip boy is nearly impossible to get off

Stanley also says it has to be removed for maintenance every 10-20 years, so...

Not to mention the fact that in New Vegas you can have it taken off and replaced with a Pimp-boy 3 Billion.

Wasn't Mitchell the Overseer that gambled Mr. House for the position of the vault?
(can't remember where I read it, probably bull****)

Mr. House won (some believe unfairly) and forced the inhabitants out. When he began filling it with concrete Sarah convinced him to keep the top floors open and renovated into a hotel.

"Nearly impossible" isn't the same as "impossible".

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 1:04 pm

If it's so hard to get off, how do they wash that arm? What if it itches? Just imagine it getting a rash or worse. Probably diseased. And smelly.

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 8:11 am

Inconsistencies!
There were supposed to be biometric seals that prevent the Pipboy 3000 from being removed.
That's why the Outcast had to cut off Gary 23's arm to take his Pipboy in Operation Anchorage.

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 9:00 am

Nope. Not inconsistent. For all the tech the Outcasts collect, they aren't very good at using it.

The 3000 model has a built-in radio and Geiger Counter. According to Stanley in Fallout 3, there are several models of Pip-Boy 3000, each a bit different. The Pip-Boy 3000 features a biometric lock that can only be opened by either the user or a skilled technician.

The Pip-Boy 3000 also features a light that illuminates the area around the user, allowing them to see better in the dark.

In Fallout: New Vegas, the PC is provided a Pip-Boy 3000 by Mitchell.

A biometric lock that can be opened by the user or a skilled technician. Doc Mitchell, being both the doctor and the user wouldn't have had any problems taking off his pipboy.

People, knock off the name calling and accusations, please. If it continues, the thread will be locked and whatever warnings are appropriate will be handed out.

Considering the countless critters looking for their next meal, tribals and raiders eager to kill for sadistic pleasure, who knows, or maybe he fell down a hill. The possibilities are numerous.

i like then idea of him falling down a hill haha
is he missing his leg if not it was obviosly not a rad scorp or something hungary

» Sun Mar 06, 2011 5:08 pm

Personally, my theory is the good doctor hurt his leg during football (that's soccer for you Americans) training.

football in a vault (im saying in a vault because there is no soccer places in the game)
