Fallout 3 power armor was just a better armor than other armor, but I move a little slower. Fallout 4, though... Made me feel like a motorhead and unstoppable killing machine all in one. I would be the grease monkey that pimps out his ride, keeps it all shiny, scrapping down everything to keep it pristine with new parts. And when I got into combat, it felt like I was the Iron Giant.
Game feel sure, but statistically it's actually terrible. They balanced the power armor around being available early game which means by the end game regular armor actually offers more benefits and doesn't stack with the power armor. You're actually safer, not wearing any.

@@obezy8705I loved the power armor in the first 2 games. It showed the armor that pushed the Chinese back from Anchorage. Power Armor is representative of a moving tank so I want it to have the durability of one.
Fallout 4 I feel like a tank even in raider power armor. But with my 80 DR in Fallout 3 with T-51, I feel like I’m using medieval armor. Those supermutant overlords with their tri-beams cut through me.
that's because the Tri-beam laser rifle has a unique effect where it adds 40 damage on top of the beams against the player and the 40 damage per beam doesn't count armor, so it's just 120 damage thrown at you if all beams hit. If it calculated armor, it wouldn't do nearly as much damage.
That's because a lot of DLC enemies cheat and have enchantments on their weapons causing them to do a certain flat amount of damage to you that bypasses your armor entirely.

A little trick i like to do to make the fallout 3/New Vegas power armor feel more like fallout 4, is to set player scale to be just a bit bigger, so that the power armor looks massive. It helps sell the illusion, but obviously not as good as just straight up fallout 4.

When i was younger I'd no idea the Brotherhood and Enclave armours were even supposed to be power armour. At least it was still among the best armour in the third game, so there's that.
I modded the Fallout 3 power armor when the CK came out so that the armor variants were all different, but had a DR about 2X the amount of original PA for the T-45 and it went up from there to the Hellfire Armor being the most resistant. Basically it meant you needed anti-tank weaponry to kill the Enclave, but their weapons tore through the BoS and it felt like a desperate battle if you didn't salvage Enclave Armor, which was useless, because the condition of dropped armors was intentionally made to be less than 25% and needed a repair skill of 100 to fix. I wanted to post the final version on the Nexus but someone else already made a pretty good version for lore-accurate power armor that was like that from Fallout 1 and 2.
I did the new update and immediately started doing the enclave mission and it genuinely makes the game feel insanely fun. Repairing it, making it bright pink, animated VATS, mods, its all just so wonderful. This update + DLC really turned me around on the game, I've played it more now than on release.
@@logicnorespond7100 X-02! An NPC had it on at the Western Enclave Outpost I believe. Fully armored too. Though I learned yesterday that you get another X-02 by doing the mission and you can find a powerful mod armor that increase AP on enemy hits while also doing AOE damage. But that one isnt fully armored.
@@LatinaCreamQueen Me personally I like the purple on the X-02 better, but I've yet to fully mod it out, I only just started my first playthrough like 2 weeks ago. But the X-02 is probably one of the most badass sets of power armor followed by the raider power armor.
Just for anyone, wondering the armor used in fallout four is from Iron Man one and the depiction of power armor for fallout three is from the show community
I found that in survival difficulty power armor still broke too quick, if you use the P.L.U.N.D.E.R. gameplay overhaul mod though it makes the power armor feel as tanky as it should be aswell as a whole number of gameplay changes that make the game feel like fallout should
I never stopped and read the pillow armor spec sheet, and man its got some hidden gems "Astronaut diapers for relief during long battles." "Face mask conceals blanket-eating warrior within." "The Pillow of Thor™"
Idk something about that slimmed down power armor is kinda cool to me, charming in a way. Of course the new power armor is great, but the nostolgia of the skinny power armor will always stick with me
Honestly, the power armor is one of the things i appreciated in FO4. In 3/NV, cool as it was, it still just kinda felt like regular armor with better defense. 4 actually made it feel like power armor. Not only giving unique benefits beyond boosted strength and defense, but it really felt like you were operating something that was almost a vehicle, not just wearing a bunch of metal.
If I had to use different franchises to describe the power armors between 3 n 4, 3’s power armor feels like Spartan armor while 4’s feels like StarCraft Terran Marine armor. One feels like a second skin while the other is built like a tank
Fallout 4's power armor is most of the reason I still play. I have overhaul mods, better jet pack mods, and a cheat room mod for all the fusion cores in the world so I can just stay in it. It's such a fun feature. My favorite feature in fallout 4, actually.
FO4 power armor maneuvers like a vehicle, with its own unique advantages and disadvantages. It has this really brutal vibe to it, since its a hulking suit of armored plates. FO3 power armor was really neat (I have a thing for T-51) but its implementation was limited by the engine back then. Its curious, because power armor is absolutely afraid of water-laden environments, which limits its terrain, but a non-pa dude might just swim across or not be bothered by swampland. Its all a game of tactics.
The most hilarious aspect in Fallout 3 and NV is that you get into a tank suit and your character still does that doodleedoopdoodoo-stroll like there is no weight at all.
Personally, i think this is why in Fo4, the BoS has a over the top presence, along with the wasteland being 'littered' with random power armor, especially the typically first encounter with a Deathclaw is done with one in the first quest lines,
I think the reason power armour feels more like a mech suit is cause its got a different menu and you need fusion cells to use it can it looks more bulky that fallout 3 power armour
Fallout 3 armor with the exception of the Winter T-51 only Will give you style points at least. Plus, the enclave armor looks crazy with all those Tesla bulbs on the shoulders.
Yeah power armour in Fallout 3 feels more like regular armour, while in Fallout 4 feels like an actual power armour.
Yeah when you play on easy Difficulty that may be the case. On very hard and Survival, power armor still feels like you're just cosplaying ironman.

Fallout 4 power armor:I’ve put my armor on to show you how strong I am
I did the new update and immediately started doing the enclave mission and it genuinely makes the game feel insanely fun. Repairing it, making it bright pink, animated VATS, mods, its all just so wonderful. This update + DLC really turned me around on the game, I've played it more now than on release.
The hellfire or X-02?
@@logicnorespond7100 X-02! An NPC had it on at the Western Enclave Outpost I believe. Fully armored too. Though I learned yesterday that you get another X-02 by doing the mission and you can find a powerful mod armor that increase AP on enemy hits while also doing AOE damage. But that one isnt fully armored.
@@LatinaCreamQueen Me personally I like the purple on the X-02 better, but I've yet to fully mod it out, I only just started my first playthrough like 2 weeks ago. But the X-02 is probably one of the most badass sets of power armor followed by the raider power armor.
Just for anyone, wondering the armor used in fallout four is from Iron Man one and the depiction of power armor for fallout three is from the show community
Fallout and Community go together so well. That should be the movie, just the Greendale Seven trying to survive the Wasteland.
A sweater with the image of armor on its front is how I feel while wearing power armor in Fallout 3.
I found that in survival difficulty power armor still broke too quick, if you use the P.L.U.N.D.E.R. gameplay overhaul mod though it makes the power armor feel as tanky as it should be aswell as a whole number of gameplay changes that make the game feel like fallout should
That's my only complaint, and that the fusion cores don't last long
Fallout 3: I don't feel no different...
Fallout 4: I AM THE LORD OF THE HARVEST!
I never stopped and read the pillow armor spec sheet, and man its got some hidden gems
"Astronaut diapers for relief during long battles."
"Face mask conceals blanket-eating warrior within."
"The Pillow of Thor™"
Hey does anyone know how to get past the death claws to get to the enclave?
Dang that first time I power armor was a dopamine rush
i was playing fallout NV yesterday and a deathclaw from quarry somehow flung Veronica in power armor to the encampment or maybe closer.
Second clip is from Community if anyone was wondering
Season 3 episode 10 Pillows and Blankets. Ken Burns civil war spoof.
I wonder if it has been uploaded to the official youtube channel yet
Perfection.
He is part man, part pillow. All carnage
2nd dude looks far more menacing
Can you believe people were complaining about Fallout 4 power armor just because it was different than the previous games.
I loved it. Best version of power armor ever.
Idk something about that slimmed down power armor is kinda cool to me, charming in a way. Of course the new power armor is great, but the nostolgia of the skinny power armor will always stick with me
OG power armor was fairly sleek and compact too, the new stuff in 4/76 is a retcon
I love Keith David. Here bud, have a like :3
In Fallout 2 power armor made you completely immune to to attacks from beginning enemies unless critted and some small arms attacks (pistols and smgs)
I'm surprised after all these years, there still isn't an Iron Man suit mod.
Honestly, the power armor is one of the things i appreciated in FO4. In 3/NV, cool as it was, it still just kinda felt like regular armor with better defense. 4 actually made it feel like power armor. Not only giving unique benefits beyond boosted strength and defense, but it really felt like you were operating something that was almost a vehicle, not just wearing a bunch of metal.
If I had to use different franchises to describe the power armors between 3 n 4, 3’s power armor feels like Spartan armor while 4’s feels like StarCraft Terran Marine armor. One feels like a second skin while the other is built like a tank
Still have to give props to the Winterized T-51b.
Fallout 4's power armor is most of the reason I still play. I have overhaul mods, better jet pack mods, and a cheat room mod for all the fusion cores in the world so I can just stay in it. It's such a fun feature. My favorite feature in fallout 4, actually.
Does anyone know if there is a mod that reskins power armor to look like Iron Man Prototype armor?
FO4 power armor maneuvers like a vehicle, with its own unique advantages and disadvantages. It has this really brutal vibe to it, since its a hulking suit of armored plates. FO3 power armor was really neat (I have a thing for T-51) but its implementation was limited by the engine back then. Its curious, because power armor is absolutely afraid of water-laden environments, which limits its terrain, but a non-pa dude might just swim across or not be bothered by swampland. Its all a game of tactics.
I miss the mod that had Iron Man power armor that shit was so mint
The most hilarious aspect in Fallout 3 and NV is that you get into a tank suit and your character still does that doodleedoopdoodoo-stroll like there is no weight at all.
Fallout 4 in survival mode actually makes you feel like your in a tank compared to normal difficulty.
Vanilla weapon/armor & PA Modding + Vertibird and giant flying support carrier is one of the Few things i like about F04.
Personally, i think this is why in Fo4, the BoS has a over the top presence, along with the wasteland being 'littered' with random power armor, especially the typically first encounter with a Deathclaw is done with one in the first quest lines,
I remember by friends hyping up that they just got power armor in fallout 3. Then I got it and was like "Oh its an outfit thats tough"
Fallout 4 turned power armor into murderous car culture and I AM HERE FOR IT
in fallout 4 power armor really makes you feel like iron man
We need a mod for the mk1 iron man suit for fallout 4’s power armour
"He is part man. Part Pillow. All carnage." had me laughing so much... lol.
He is part man, part ghoul: all radiation
Idk man them institute sewer turrets caught me by surprise and melted me in maxed out xo2😭
I love how accurate this is! XD
Someone has to have made the mark 1 suit into a mod for the power armor
"And Jesus wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer.”- Dean Pelton
Agreed lol. But Titans of the New West mod definitely brings it up to the Fallout 4 feeling.
Either way theyre both unstoppable behemoth juggernauts
I think the reason power armour feels more like a mech suit is cause its got a different menu and you need fusion cells to use it can it looks more bulky that fallout 3 power armour
Fallout 3 armor with the exception of the Winter T-51 only Will give you style points at least. Plus, the enclave armor looks crazy with all those Tesla bulbs on the shoulders.
Get the xo 2 armor from the rationing site then replace the helmet with a t-51 and chest plate with an xo1 shit cool ash
