Course it's OK. Isn't it?
Awesome info, man. It almost certainly means that the Enclave are in, plus for some reason I'm excited to get to experience the traditional Power Armour for the first time ever, as I've never played the originals.

Hopefully the suit can be recieved from an Ex Enclave member, and the Enclave arent in.

If the Enclave IS in I'm hoping for a camp or small base on a cliff or in a corner

Well, isn't that the courier who's wearing that enclave armour, unless the enclave have pipboys?

I thought it was the courier as well but the Enclave having Pip-boys isn't that impossible, in the opening sequence of FO2 they were slaughtering Vault Dwellers were they not.

This is my hope as well. If it is a unique armor that is very difficult to obtain, like the T-51b in Ft. Constantine, I'm okay with it. What I would prefer, though, is if it is the final reward for a companion questline where you slowly realize your companion is former Enclave [cough]Raul[/cough].

I'm wondering what Lexx thinks about this version eheheh.

But it looks cool. I honestly still doubt that the Enclave is in game, though.

I like the look of that armor....looks better than the armor in fallout 3,would look a bit better if it was darker though

I did'nt wear power armor alot,i like my stealth/sniper characters,but i'll do many playthroughs in NV as different character types.
I will say though,that the tesla & hellfire armor in fallout 3 looked awesome

Tubes on his helmet and his left arm clips through his armor covering the shoulder and neck. I guess it's unavoidable. At least they ain't hovering shoulder pads like with the T-51b's, that was so ugly (and the texture on them aswell)
I'm glad that it's in because it looks way cooler than Fallout 3 Enclave armor (which was pretty inspired of the BoS armor in Fallout: Tactics)

I dont like the looks of it.

Expecially those mantis eyes looks ugly. I liked the fo3 enclave power armors more. They looked lot better, but they were too small.

Hopefully it will make us big as in fallout 2. Power armors needs to look like a walking tank.

Not a futuristic plate mail.

It's the one in your signature? To be honest, I like the texture better on the official one! xD Harharharhar

Edit: damn you for editing your post just when I replied to it!
Edit 2: I still like the official texture better x) Yours look like Eldars or something.

The texture was only begun this week... I'ts a massive multilayer photoshop file that I'm still tweaking and fiddling with. The one in the sig is old, and has a checkered grid as a temp texture. :foodndrink:

Holy canoli, that is a pleasant surprise. Sure hope we can see some other re-designed classics. T-45 and leather were pretty much the only recognisable ones.

Looks excellent, I quite like the off-yellow moon base alpha toxic shock look

A bonus that you can actually do that stuff in the first place

Or is that online mutliplayer ops?

Thanks Geezer!

Anymore Exclusive Armour Pics you want me to post??? :wink_smile:

I am happy Advanced Power Armour is back. I am not happy that there is an Enlave mark on it. I hope it has nothing to do with them. I hope the Enclave are not in this one. I really hope it's not called "Enclave Power Armour." Would be awesome if Advanced Power Armour Mk II is in as well.

“The Destruction of the Enclave erased all trace of President Richardson from history. Now the title of “President” is used as a boogeyman to frighten children.”

Sweet, though the shoulders look a bit different than they did in the Fallout 2 menus and talking heads, but I'm not that picky... that model is more than good enough. The helmet was probably the most distinct part of the armor anyway.

Hopefully the suit can be recieved from an Ex Enclave member, and the Enclave arent in.

I imagine it will be located in an old base or on a former Enclave member; the the eye pieces are cracked and there's a lot of rust. If it was still being used by Enclave it would be better maintained, and besides there's no trace of it on the Enclave's main forces in Fallout 3. I doubt the Enclave will be present in NV, personally.

Obsidian have already said that FNV will not have a single big bad guy like in FO3, so even if the Enclave are in it will most likely not be a fully functional military operation but rather some scattered remnants and outposts.

Also, if we're gonna quote The Vault wiki:

However, the destruction of the oil rig did not cause all of Enclave to be destroyed, as Navarro and other, smaller outposts on the mainland were able to survive.

Wow, I was just about to post the link to NMA. News travels fast. I hate to disappoint all you Enclave haters out there, but it looks like they made it in the game. Note the freshly painted Enclave symbol. That's no 100 year old armor. No way would there be new plasma weapons and relatively intact Enclave armor without some Enclave presence. Fallout 3 nuked the fridge with their Enclave element. Just accept that there might be a small remnant.

:celebration: Hooray! As an avid Enclave supporter, this makes me a very happy man. I hope we can get the Advanced Power Armour Mk II of an ex-Enclave soldier or something like that.

Thanks for posting this. :goodjob:

I do hope they'll get rid of that damn logo, it looks like the EU logo :mellow:
