Is it possible? Yes. Can you release it? No.

Bethesda doesn't allow porting assets from any of its games to another.

Hermes Armor is going to be considered Power armor? if so will it be as heavy as power armor? Thats going to be disappointing if it is...

Eh, speculation at this point. Aside from a guy noticing the H3RM35 sign on the antenna we really know nothing more about it that we didn't know before.

Im hoping its light because im playing on hardcoe mode and I dont want to carry around a heavy armor.

I'm wondering if perhaps Hermes was never the intended name, similar to how M4a3 (i have always wondered why the 'm' is capitalized and the 'a' isn't) Sherman Tank had a alpha numeric designation.

Well that is what people are calling it because of the markings on the antenna maybe since hermes was the messenger god its just a company that invented a communicator so the brand name is on the antenna. H3RM35 Antennas gets yours today! Thats just speculation because thats all we can do right now.

T-45d looks like Bethesda tried to make Medieval Oblivion knight armor translate to Fallout.

Here! Here!

In Van Buren it was supposed to be a prototype of the next generation of Combat Armor, which protected as much as a Power Armor but without the additional benefits and limitations. If the NCR has got their hands on that prototype schemes and found a way to produce at least a limited number of them, I can see them equipping the elite Rangers with them. I can also see how that would provide a perfect high-end medium armor to contrast to the Power Armor.

I believe that comes from the writing on the antenna, which I like to assume is like a serial number or something, I doubt the actual item will be called that in game, in any case.



And how is that, when I see http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090720102419/fallout/images/1/14/Fallout_3_T45d_Power_Armor.png I in no way think of http://www.swordsandarmor.com/images/AR008_White_Knight_Armor.JPG. About the only resemblance between the two is that both are suits of heavy metal armor which covers the wearer's body, and by that resemblance, we could just as easily say that T-51b was Medieval knight armor translated into a science-fiction setting. Though to be fair, maybe the concept of power armor caught on in science-fiction BECAUSE it made it possible to capture an image similar to an armored knight while not looking out of place in a technologically advanced future.

Or perhaps you simply could not take the fact that Bethesda DARED to put a kind of armor in the game that was NOT in Fallout 1 and 2? How dare they want to put NEW things in sequels! The nerve!

But it is good to see what looks like the Fallout 2 Advanced Power Armor returning, that was probably my favorite power armor in the series. I had nothing against the Fallout 3 Enclave Power Armor, but I just didn't like it as much as the Fallout 2 version.

I know you're just joking, but it really would be best if we drop the grammar discussion immediately, it's gone really off-topic.

Since the Enclave are presumably long gone, it will be far less awkward playing wasteland messiah dressed in black power armor.

I've got one thing to say, if T-45d is in the game. I want a damn good reason for it. In the current lore the only store of T-45d they had was located in the Pentagon, meaning there isn't any on the West Coast, unless it was brought there by someone. Only possible way I can see to get your hands on it would be a secret pre-war bunker filled with the junk.

... :whistling:

Anyway.. I actually have an on topic post for once lol.

Does the look of the Enclave armour bother any of you who have played Fallout 2? I've only seen videos of Fallout 2, but other than the helmet the armour looks nothing alike to me. If you look at it in Fallout 2 it looks quite chunky, and broad across the shoulders. Whereas in New Vegas it just looks small and almost weedy. That's obviously just down to the fact that it's had to be designed to fit the character models in this game.

I still quite like it, and I will use it when I find a set, but I think it looked ten times better in Fallout 2..

OMFG i want mk II and THE SARGENT to yell at me!!!!!!:DDDDD

It looked more proportionate in the opening cinematic, that's for sure.

I hope there's some decent options for those of us who don't like Power Armor. In 3 it was Armored Vault Suit, Combat Armor, Reilly's Ranger Armor, the end (excepting of course the absurd Chinese Invisible Ninja Armor). Options are a good thing.

I have deleted a lot of off topic posts derailing this thread, make sure you stay on topic now please.

Advanced power armor
The advanced Tesla armor
T-51b power armor

Hopefully [src="http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Hardened_power_armor"]Hardened Power Armorwill be in the game as well. As well as Advanced PA MKII

Best news is Damage threshold will put the power in power armour again

With the addition of repair kits, I can wander about aimlessly in the Mojave Wasteland in the Advanced Power Armor Mk. I and not have to worry about needing to go to a merchant just to fix the stinking thing if its just a one of a kind suit, that and the perk that lets meh repair it with metal armor or whatnot just makes Power armor that much more pleasing an option for me.

If the textures and mesh are still in the GECK, yes. If not, you'd have to build it from scratch.

In a way I hope not. Hardened power armor weighs 100 lbs IIRC

Im gonna use the hermes armor as Its most likely going to be lighter and that is going to be an advantage. Will we have to do the power armor training thing to wear power armor?

You forgot leather armor, metal armor, raider armors (especially the pitt raider armors and their tougher unique versions from The Pitt), and merc outfits. All those provide decent to good DR.
