Sweet screens.

Fore?

[EG Haggard Spartan]

Fore could mean...

-Fore is shouted as a warning during a golf game when it appears possible that a golf ball may hit other players or spectators.
-The fourth studio album by the band Pegboy.
-The bow of a ship, the front.

I think it might be something to do with the first one. Something like FOUR! and you slap him with your gun?

Edit: Do the mutants look gigantic? or is that just me?

[Guyyug]

Fore is a special attack done when using golf clubs. And Haggard those are not the super mutants you are used to, they are the Mariposa super mutants, they still have their gender and were dipped instead of injected with FEV. They are also on average smarter, so the work is cut out for you. Well thats my guess because they were going to be in the game along with the vault 87 mutants.

Though this is what a super mutant looked like in FO1 and 2.



Thats Marcus, sherrif of broken hills, a settlement in the NCR.

Comparison between them actually in the screen shots there.



What I believe to be a mariposa super mutant from calafornia.



And the vault 87 mutants from the capital wasteland

And just to add the flamethrower looks like what it did in FO1 and 2.

This game should be great although it loks like they haven't done much to change the graphics engine for the game, which is a little disapointing.

Still it will be interesting to see how they get the two separate groups of super mutants together. Also Guyyug where does it say in Fallout 3 the were injected I thought from the looks of Vault 87 they were exposed to the FEV by breathing it in, as the rooms were gas chambers.

[Guyyug]

Most likely both. Before dipping was done by the master, the FEV was first injected, it may of been breathed in. Most sources, I believe one of the terminals mentioned injecting. Those gas chambers may of been for something else, or it was a method tried, most vault 87 super mutants are not smart enough to be to keep controls working on those things, the only ones that I've seen that would be smart enough are Fawkes and Leo, but both of them do not like the other mutants.

Centuars in calafornia are a number of animals dipped in the same FEV vat, whilst centuars in the capital wasteland are failures. Floaters were another mutant done through the dipping of flatworms, there was concept art of them done for FO3, so maybe obsidian will bring them back in NV as they were part of the mariposa mutants as well.

[Crash]

I think I can remember reading on the Fallout wiki that in Fallout 3 that the FEV virus was a different strain in vault 87 so perhaps slight changes produced these different mutants.

Though I do know I will buy this game and play it to death exactly like I did with Fallout 3.

[Guyyug]

If going by the wiki, it does say that it is injected, namely on the page for the vault 87 super mutants. Well the original FEV was done incase of bio weapons used by china, they just found it could be good for a super soldier. After this, West-tek started doing expirements on people at mariposa, before the bombs dropped the soldiers stationed there found out, killed the reasearchers and left after the bombs dropped, these soldiers formed the brotherhood of steel. Master comes along, before he is mutated and falls in a vat, comes out later. Harold was knocked out and started to mutant, he is now the tree in the capital wasteland, long way from home.

But what I wonder, is how Vault-tek got hold of FEV, west-tek and vault-tek were two completely different companies. Mariposa was the base for FEV reasearch.

[Red Intensity]

Looks like a combat ready Shrek.


Looks like a super mutant ate Elton John.

Glad they're making a reappearance.

[Guyyug]

Just be glad this super mutant died in FO1

I remember going into combat with him, my character was shot to pieces in the first round by a gattling laser and I was wearing power armour!

He did a critical hit for about 160 damage, my character lost the left side of the torso completely, and his head. Storyline he was very intelligence and the master and him formed that the best super mutants are those they have not been infected by radiation, so those in vaults.

That doesn't make sense dude. If they are super mutants then they HAVE to have been radiated... that's what causes the mutation in the first place.

[Guyyug]

The thing that creates super mutants is FEV, not mutations through radiation like ghouls, mirelurks etc.

[EG NeoMorph]

You sure? I thought the FEV was supposed to KILL mutants.

Edit: Hmmm you are right... they should have called them Super Soldiers instead of Super Mutants in that case.

The Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV) is, aside from environmental radiation, the major source of mutation in the Fallout universe. Most importantly, both Super Mutants and the Master are the result of infection by FEV. Aside from Super Mutants, the Master also created a variety of other aberrational creatures using the virus. The FEV existed in various forms in all the Fallout games. Its various forms created two major threats to post-nuclear humanity: the Super Mutants of the Master, and their Capital Wasteland counterparts, created in Vault 87. The FEV virus gave birth to a wide variety of dangerous creatures (including the Master and Frank Horrigan) which not only became a threat to post-nuclear humanity, but also served as the means by which the games' antagonists sought to achieve their goals.

[Guyyug]

The FEV given to the lone wanderer is a change done to the FEV by the enclave to wipe out those with mutations. But the original batch of FEV is what makes super mutants.
