I have gotten most of my information from this amazing Gameinformer article. I welcome you all to read it if you haven't already. It is on page 3 specifically because it details to the main topic I'm wanting to discuss today. I also know that there have probably been plenty of other discussions about this but I wanted to start my own.

The article states, and I quote: "Our look at Fallout 4 concludes in a courtyard battle that becomes more chaotic as it unfolds. A rocket is fired into the chest of an enemy. Two Brotherhood of Steel soldiers descend from a drop ship and open fire on your targets, marching like invulnerable titans along the ground. Another dropship is blown out of the sky and crashes into a building. Its debris rains down on the battlefield; one of the bodies flung from it screams as it flies off screen."

That particular paragraph seems scripted, and I am going off the assumption that it is. But for the sake of argument I will base my post on the assumption that it could be either/or.

It seems that our PC is going to the factory for a very random reason (kind of). To just kill the raiders. But then BoS appears. The writer does not specifically say if the PC called these walking tanks in, or if it was just a 'pop-up'. What if it wasn't scripted? The game is content locked, which means this segment is not just meant for the demo. We will get to play through this mission. It is possible it will be removed, but I doubt it. What if it was just something that happened?

We can't say for sure, it doesn't matter, this segment has gotten me excited. What if this place is meant to be a part of the BoS? What if it will be occupied, and then the BoS will use it to make what ever it is that was made there (the article describes it as an assembly plant)? What if then we have to find a manufacturing plant to send supplies to this plant (that's a long shot, admittedly)? The possibilities are endless. I hope this is part of a larger picture, and if not, it still sounds fun.

I'd love to be able to make it into a 'wasteland palace' perhaps, and set up our own defenses as one of the areas we can build on. Because as they say, variety is the spice of life.
