That being said though, the heavier weapons are still much more manageable in a nice suit of high tech power armor so don't be discouraged. Lets assume that in the world of Fallout they use a special light(ish) alloy, but even then it would still set its weight in the range of ~500kg and upwards at the very least.Ĭonsidering all of this, power armor movement has been modified fitting to a suit of this magnitude. Just to give some perspective, 1 cubic metre of aluminium weighs ~2700kg and that's just aluminium.įurthermore, a cubic metre of steel (which is actually used for repairs in Fallout 4) weighs ~7800kg. The 'equivalent' armor plates that we have today which even come close to such durability are extremely heavy. You will actually feel like a person who has weight and momentum, not an arcadey camera whipping from corner to corner like a superhero.Īccording to the lore, power armor can supposedly withstand multiple hits from heavy caliber rifles in the same spot. Sneaking is slower, strafing is slower, and aiming on the move will significantly slow you down. Humans move much slower, and different types of weapons will further affect mobility. Movement will feel correct, combat will be tense, and everything will just make a bit more sense.Īll in all, you will have a completely different experience. If you're a realism/immersion freak like myself when playing games then you'll feel right at home. This mod redesigns various game mechanics towards what would actually make sense from a logical standpoint.
