Looks more like something from Sonic the Hedgehog rather than Fallout 3.

what the fuck is a gas bot doing in a world with no petrol?

who the fuck made a robot like that?

who ever the artist is doesnt seem to get the 50s future concept, incorporating 50s items into futuristic enemies does not a good setting make.

I think it's called that because its torso is made out of an old petrol pump. Those would still have been around somewhere, I guess.

The parts are uneven, obviously bits and pieces found here and there, which is nice. Except the 'hands'. Still, the parts themselves look a bit too good. Not very '50s, either.

Not to mention that the whole thing probably isn't very stable.

1. this does not look official
2. it looks like a concept tops.
3. it doesn't say anything about the game

sure if they are ment to do that robot in the game - and use it more then once - well then it would be weird - but I wouldn't dig too deep in it as it is.

and yet you can justify anything with story in any game - want tech in a high fantasy setting - sure it can be arranged - want clean nice 90s stuff in fallout - it can be arranged.

and not only poorly, but well.

if anything LSD was tested back then.

Holy shit I used to live down the street from Josh Sawyer and didnt know it! I could have beaten him up until he made Fallout 3 or something! Oh and hurrah on this rumor, heres to hoping it turns out the way were hoping. Later all, Ive got to see if my old house is up for sale again.

You too far to drive over and smack him over the head for trying to include race and class into Fallout?

Yeah, like playing deathclaws and ghouls...

Be sure to hit him hard enough.

lo id be liek totally YO JOSH and hed be liek GASBOT...COMMENCE ATTACK!

I think the gasbot looks good far away. And concept art rarely looks like the final product so mario u no?

Smiley · Post by **Smiley** » Sun May 25, 2003 7:17 pm

Hmm.. I guess the "race" thing could be acceptable, but definately NOT classes!That'd pretty much destroy the whole Fo system!

I'd like more variation of ones person though... y'know... height, weight, eyes, hair, skin and so on...

Changable skin and hair colour yes, but eyes is taking things a little too far. As for bodytype I like the way JA2 changes the character sprite depending on how many strength points you allocated.

But definately no classes or character portraits.

Yeah, I think it's just put there so that the shortcuts stay together if you accidently hit "Arrange Icons by ...", so that they'd stick together.

Hahaha, too right.

I think the concept artists needsto drop the BIS Official Sega in the break room and do some research. I.e. figure out why the styles were used in Fallout 1 and 2, and what a boxy, neo boxy, the cigar of the flying security bots, and what a robbie all are.

I also hesitate to think that might become of the plot given a robot that was constructed of scrap in that way. Is this going to be another robot plot?
