Seriously, if you look at NCR Fatigues, which has none of the plates on it, it's 26 pounds, what are those clothes made from? Steel? :blink:

@Omega: You know, if they made those clothes from the hides of the hillbillys in PL, they'd be in power armor :laugh:

Don't know what they are made of, but I have never seen a set of overalls that weigh 26 pounds lol. I think the devs be trollin.

I think they should start making more power armors though, maybe deathclaw skin ones, Cazador armors...

well, at least in mods or somthing like that

Or worse. They Dun Goof'd :cryvaultboy:

@Omega, that would be a great idea. Making a Deathclaw hide armor, which is highly valuable, as the only to make one is to kill 5 deathclaws.

They are made of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_%28computer_graphics%29.

If you however want to know what they should represent, I'll say they represent something like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_plates also known as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigandine sometimes. In essence steel or other plates under textile or leather which holds them together.

isn't the dt only 2 tho? i would think it would be higher if it had steel plates under it

This is what I speak off: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/NCR_Trooper_Armor. It has DT of 10 and is considered medium armour. Is there something lighter which is NCR specific?

A hill billy with dr usanagis skin/iron implant, then skinned and wore by anothe rhill billy, also with usanagis implant.

I think most people are talking about the caravaneer outfit, and I think there is another ncr armor that has only like 5, or 6 DT also weighing in at 26 pounds. Also the Field Hand, and Prospector outfits weighs like 15 pounds lol. When they look like they should weigh about the sqame as prewar cloths

No, I'm referring to NCR fatigues, they weight 26 lbs and has 2 DT at maximum repair. :laugh:

Its pretty ridiculous really it weighs more then combat armor, and offers as much protection as a wet piece of paper lol :rofl:

Can you point me to wiki or some picture? I am really lost now

"http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/NCR_Trooper_Fatigues" have DT 10.

» Mon Sep 08, 2008 8:32 pm

OK, newer mind, I got it now. I newer noticed there is in fact different armour, they all look so similar.

» Mon Sep 08, 2008 11:26 pm

Heavy?

» Mon Sep 08, 2008 8:35 pm

well if you think about all the ammo and machetes they put in their pockets...

Go under Variants to the last one saying 'trooper fatigues'. The picture is Row 2, Guy 3.

Brahmin hide, Bathas in Modoc can make combat leather armor and its very good armour.

New Vegas lets us know they have Big horners so they make stuff from their hide as well.

my god, now i want to see a super buff guy in t-51b wrestle a legendary deathclaw, and rip its jaw off :bowdown: :poke:

How about because whoever was responsible on the Dev team had attention deficit disorder and just reused the same template for several armors and only changed the textures and name. They probably had no military experience and didn't know that fatigues are clothing and not armor.

Probably the same guy who nerfed the Sheriff's Duster (with even less excuse because there is only one in the game.)

You know, you have a point. 3 had a duster worth wearing.

» Mon Sep 08, 2008 7:59 pm

If your tough enough to pull off the duster look, you shouldn't be getting hit anyway. Who needs DT when your just that awesome?
