i loved seeing them in MZ so now we know they are in the game and give you lots of screws for building things do you have the hart to smash them or collect them lol

None of the above, a Giddyup Buttercup should be the final boss.

I'd smash the neighbor's cat if it ensured my survival. If it comes down to it... I'd smash the neighbor.

wouldn't be much of a fight

I will collect all the Giddy Up Buttercups and formate them in a circule then use it as my ritual offering to the alien overlords of the Fallout world. Maybe they will take me and make me one of them! Or perhaps I will be given the holy Alien probe. At the very least, they must give me some of there technology to have fun with on Earth.

Yeah, it'd decimate us.

For some reason I first thought of um, bittercup from Fallout 3.

Didnt they cost like thousands of dollars before the war?

I remember seeing the advertisemant in the FO3 loading screens. Seems like that would make them pretty rare and completely deserving the inevitable scrapping they are gonna get.

I misread as http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Bittercup and am kind of disappointed that we can't ride her now.

Would be cool to see a robotic one in-game that's actually working. (Could mean a LittlePip or Blackjack follower mod would be that much easier to make).

Not gonna lie. I dig those kookie chicks. Always have.

... explains a lot, now that I look at it in text.

They cost 16,000 in pre-war money and in the Mothership Zeta DLC the Aliens Research Lab has 109 of them all stacked up. The Aliens were apparently obsessed with the Mechanical Equestrian and even tried to mate subjects with it. I'm hoping to find a huge craters filled with Giddy Up Buttercups in Fallout 4 from the time we destroyed the Alien Mothership in Fallout 3.

Collect for parts.

i smell an interesting mod

smash those eldritch abominations, they must be destroyed before they wipe us all out

I would support this wholeheartedly if and only if it's a part of "Wild Wasteland" and the game makes sure to tell you thusly (if you ain't got it, you don't get it).

People are* happy about the connection to Fallout 3 and MZ, other members here are* even happier that it's a semi-confirmation that MZ is non-canon. Win-Win

Plus I mean.. A crap-ton of screws for the Sims portion of the game.

They have precious parts of importance.

My precious *rubs hands*

Similar to the Brotherhood of Steel and their persuits to preserve Pre-War tech, I will build a society around preserving and maintaining Giddy Up Buttercups. Anyone who is caught bringing harm to these Equestrian beings will face the rath of the Giddy Up Buttercup Brotherhood. We will leave no stone un-turned and no screw un-screwed until we find the perpetrator!

GUBB a new FO universe faction

I think Todd said they have like 16 screws in them and that internal testers covet them for that reason.

LOL, remember finding the giant room filled with them. Weirdest since the dreamers in Morrowind.

I remember that room in Mothership Zeta. Probably both - collect some, destroy some.

Or the room with the dead people and the red eyed buttercup...

So are screws rare then? If having 16 of them is notable...

Did you see that one room in Mothership Zeta? Would be worse than fighting Liberty Prime


There's mods for that

Yah Mule!
