Recruit Pipboy in Fallout Tactics

[@Mogget01]

He can’t crouch or crawl either, but his height does factor into the mechanics, his standing height is about the same as a crouched character

[@freddywright4239]

Child soldier

[@mementocity]

crouching and prone are key game mechanics since it both decreases the hit chances on the unit and also boosts accuracy thats why even with mad crit stats the vaultboy stays on the recruit pool and i just grab his endgame weapon early

[@foofoo3344]

And to compensate, he's slow. But why'd they make him more fragile, though?

[@DarthWall275]

Not sure how a weeb kid who wasn't even born when this game was released has such an intimate knowledge of the game, but it's both impressive and sad.😂

@@DarthWall275 I thought the 2010s rerelease of fallout 1-tactics was infamous in the community because interplay used fan patches for them

[@zanethezaniest274]

Another thing about the Vault Boy the companion, if u do plan on finding him make sure you have 2 or 3 empty party member slots while u wander around the location to trigger his encounter. Otherwise he will say your party is to full and refuse to join unless u have a smaller band. Coming back to the location a second time actually soft locks you if you are playing without any patches. So remember to have a small party when u first meet him.

[@nelsonsmith2917]

I like the way he walks with that rifle

[@freastt]

I just love how goofy the whole idea of meeting the Vault Boy in the middle of nowhere and him immediately deciding to join your group to fight enemies for no reason sounds Now I kinda want this guy as a companion in a modern fallout game, because I think it would be funny

Even if the enklave never want to rebuild the usa in case of the war. they want take some starships and reach a new world.( well mention only in Fallout 2) and the Endboss(kind of) was his own General...

A pipboy is a small computer The Vaultboy is a cartoon character from the bunker company That is a robot that looks like the latter and is named after the former. The only question is, did some ingame robot factory get confused with the naming, or was it the real life creators of the game?

Tactics is a glimpse into the fallout 3 I wish we would've gotten.

[@bloodred255]

OK. 1.) fallout tactics was rather buggy crashing semi frequently for me. prevented me from doing ironman since it crashes randomly on the map 2.) fallout tactics 'tactics' was trivialized by the voodoo drug which you can take 3 of and get 12 AGI, 12 Luck, 60 damage resistance (armor adding another 40% to get you to 100%) and 72% chance of critical hit. for like 30 minutes. after which you cycle him back to the party and drug up someone else waiting for the withdrawl to wear off. since fallout had those bypass defenses criticals, this means you get yourself a burst mode gun a Browning M2 is ideal but anything works really, and just crit them to death. Fast shot + bonus rate of fire. I used Jax I think, mutating his kamikaze for gifted for the bonus rate of fire perk. 3.) Pretty sure a big existed to get you 2 pip boys, I don't recall them being weak, did you not put armor on him? good stats especially luck. Random encounters can be farmed, voodoo can be found off beastmen encounters, pulse grenades can be found off reaver encounters. considering the last maps of the game are against robots, these pulse grenades are pretty clutch. but yeah fallout tactics drugs allowed for over 100% damage resistance and very high critical chance. trivilizing the tactics. oh and you could over dose turrets, make a video on over dosing the turrets.
