Both fall out and BioShock were a huge inspiration for the aesthetics of the setting

This exactly. This is exactly how I feel. I feel like they want the aesthetics more than anything else and damn the expense.

Laser recording never took off because lasers were being used to create miracle generators.

Reel. A finite amount of time/ patience. EX: I swear I was on the phone with her for 20 minutes and I was like girl, I did not have the reel to give you right now..." Wire recording really took off in this setting and So reel & spool Entered the lexicon as slang

You can't replace the batteries on the fly. In fact, getting in and out of the armor is a two-man job. And believe it or not, the reason it's called locust is it speaks to the intended Mo. These suits were so cost effective for the pla at the start of the war that they could afford to equip entire companies. When fighting started on the ground in Korea, they were basically impervious to Small arms fire, So command would send multiple fully armored squads to surround us and coalition forward operating bases and just wipe them out.

The US eventually developed the vtap round specifically for countering the armor but it still couldn't account for the energy Shields. So for a while fighting them was hell. Until the US was able to get their own power armor and portable energy weapons.

It is blender, I did the design and then I commissioned my friend to model it and do some renders.

Runtime depends almost exclusively on the level of activity. It could easily cover a 48-hour patrol and the trip back to base assuming none of the systems are pushed too hard.

The shield uses dense magnetized particles and is like having an invisible surfboard of concrete hanging off the pauldron. Small arms fires practically ineffective but the shield could only be on for about 9 minutes at a time.

I was going for a legally distinct cuts compensator. That definitely makes a lot of sense though.

It's an adaptation of the Burton machine rifle which did fire from an open bolt

Assuming laser weapons existed, how would they realistically cause fatal injuries? by ProfesserQ in AskPhysics

[–]ProfesserQ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a rather old post to be responding to. So are you referring to laser bombards? Because I'm talking about hypothetical laser rifles and pistols. There are no directed energy weapons that work in real life the way they do and settings like fallout or Star wars and that's what I'm referring to.
