I can't imagine a sniper rifle being held like that. And Jason Bergman did allude to a bozar......so.... :mohawk:

Yep, that's the Bozar. And yes, I'm excited as [censored] about it.

Yeah, that's a bozar, now I'm really looking forward to September, despite school.

Yep (to the choir).

I was never a fan of it in Fallout 2, as it used the same minigun animation (I thought it looked stupid); it looks way cool in Vegas with its own model.

I wonder how it's implemented:

5.56mm with an insane ROF so with each trigger pull it puts several rounds in the same general spot (theoretically possible, and in line with the description from Fallout 2), or something like a scaled down .50 BMG HMG.

It's probably the latter. In the base game, the Anti-Materiel rifle is the only one that uses .50 rounds. It would be nice to have another.

It would also make the Bozar much more valuable then it already is.

I can't wait to use the Bozar to mow down some NCR and BOS. These new weapons in the 3 dlc are gonna be awesome.

I wonder what caliber the rounds are going to be for the Bozar?

I'm guessing .50 MG since the AMR is the only weapon using that ammo type ATM and the Bozar looks very similar...

Barrel the size of a lead pipe and a muzzle break like that? It's gotta be in .50.

-gunny out.

No, it's probably going to stay the caliber it was in the originals. 5.56 is what it will more than likely be.

Agreed, can you imagine having a Burst Fire .50?

A noraml 50. cal machine gun?

The barrel doesn't look all that thick when you compare it to the hand on the forearm, and the ejected case looks around the size of a 5.56mm cartridge when you compare it to the same hand.

There very well might be a .50 BMG HMG anologue in addition to this.

There are only 2 bottleneck ejected case animations in the game files. One for 5.56 and one for .308. I highly doubt they would make a new case animation for the .50 now when they didn't for the main game. So you can't go by the case. Hell, I thought the cyberdog might have been in .50 or .308 based on them using a .308 case animation, but the thing ended up in .357 and .44. Maybe the damn Bozar's in .45-70!

Maybe the Bozar uses a new ammo? :mellow:

Ooooooooh! Maybe in .416 Weatherby? Or .338 Lapua?

I am still saying it's sticking with it's old caliber, though it would be nice to see it in .308.

» Sat Aug 27, 2011 2:37 am

I can't wait to use it. That is all.

Good point.

I meant a .50 sniper rifle though. Sorry, forgot to clarify. :sadvaultboy:

My favourite weapon in the series, and now I get to use it in New Vegas... YEEEEEAAAHHHHH!!!!!
