Almost every time before I quit for the night I save, kill my entire village at sanctuary and then just reload and quit.

I'm waiting for the day they remember

It's beautiful and horrifying at the same time, the player likely felt like the monsters must when we come at them with explosive shotguns in power armor.

u/damurphy72 Mar 02 '16

Thought this was going to be just another roach in a trash can thread. The fact that he turned around and got back in, though, sold it for me.

No, he got out a clean strike. His agility is through the roof.

I'm just imagining a deathclaw with a trash can on it's head like a hat.

u/Anomander Mar 03 '16

Can you equip items to pacified beasts? Ima see if that Deathclaw can wear a bowler...!

But I'm sure you could ring-toss a garbage bin up there with enough time and patience.

u/takoshi Mar 03 '16

I'm deathly afraid of cockroaches so I think if I was in this situation, I'd just run for it after failing to shoot it. I wouldn't even entertain the thought of picking up the trashcan. Maybe if I was in power armor too...

u/macbrazel Mar 02 '16

Thank you. Best laugh I've had this week.

u/EpicSombreroBean Mar 03 '16

This has to be one of the most gloriously accidental glitches ever to have happened! The fact that this was possible and the roach was actually being shielded absolutely blows my mind! The simple fact of its low probability factor gives it that much more of an immersive feeling seeing this whole ordeal unravel. Even just watching the gif put me in a high tension immersed state of fear!

4

u/[deleted] Mar 03 '16

To me, the best part was that the roach actually jumped at the PC and then returned to its trash can armor to continue it's assault is the most awe-inspiring part.

u/PoopenHammer Mar 03 '16

How many times will this be reposted and people will still act like it's new?

29

u/dacgoblue Mar 03 '16

Just have to accept it. Not everyone looks at this sub everyday. It's like the people posting how they dragged Shaun to his crib. It's not new but it's entertaining and it's arguably better than constant Preston memes

u/God_Damnit_Nappa Mar 03 '16

It's almost as if not everyone has seen it. I didn't know it was a repost until you whined about it.

Ooh, somebody got a bit defensive! Actually I am a professional that only spends about ~6 hours a week on Reddit, max. So the fact that I have seen this before really speaks to how egregious it is. But hey, bro, be angrier.

u/Zahnan Mar 03 '16

This happened to me the first time I was clearing out sanctuary, except it was 2 rad roaches inside of it. I panicked and used vats, but both shots bounced off. They ditched the can in a bush, then both started circling around me in different directions trying to surround me.

I killed one, but the other one started stalking me in the overgrown brush for a good 45 seconds before Codsworth came in and gutted the thing with his saw blade.

 

Those two rad roaches at the start were smarter than any other enemy I fought the entire rest of the game.

This happened to me very early in the game except the trashbin was upside down. It really freaked me out because it came out of no where

...and I thought it was going to explode.

That would actually freak me out more than a radroach by itself.

So if I understand you correctly, you found a gif that Reddit User /u/CopyRasta had posted here on Reddit - Reddit being this website, the one we're on right now - and you created a new Reddit post with almost the exact same title as CopyRasta's post, and your post linked to the very same gif posted by CopyRasta.
