Fallout 4 foreshadowed DLC



  • So, the robot DLC that's been announced.

    I don't know where I saw it, but if I see it again, I'll take a snapshot.

    But IMO the DLC was hinted at because there's this poster in one of the missions you infiltrate, (I believe the first railroad mission to sneak into their old base), where they have this poster hanging on the wall with several torso and arm parts interchangably built together to make a robot.

    It mixed a humanoid (arms, legs, torso, head) with on of the centurions (those big tank robots) and a handyman, and the old protectrons.



  • They already announced that.

    The mysterious Mechanist has unleashed a horde of evil robots into the Commonwealth, including the devious Robobrain. Hunt them down and harvest their parts to build and mod your own custom robot companions. Choose from hundreds of mods; mixing limbs, armor, abilities, and weapons like the all-new lightning chain gun. Even customize their paint schemes and choose their voices!

    That's the official DLC description.



  • Right.

    I'm saying that I ran into a poster in the game, long before the announcement, that seemed to foreshadow the DLC.

    In fact, it was the first thing I thought of when I read about the new DLC.



  • Oh.

    Well it might have been there in release, or in the patch they did a couple weeks ago.



  • Pretty sure it was only a week or so after the release of the game that I saw the poster.

    But... I can't prove it wasn't patched in.

    😞



  • Well I googled all the Fallout 4 posters and ain't found shit, so without a screenshot there ain't nothing here.



  • Well, I retraced everywhere that made sense...

    Giving up then...

    This is why. It wasn't a poster.

    Finally found it. I was feet away from it the whole time.

    It's in the Switchboard, in the room across from the room the vault is in.

  • Discourse touched me in a no-no place

    I suspect they planned all sorts of possible DLC and dropped various hints in that will only become clear as hints once the DLC is announced. Everything else will just be thought to be confusing crud.

    Think of it this way: you found the hint easter egg. Good on you!



  • @dkf Agreed.

    But it's cool to have something that shows that forward thinking.
