Regarding how they would know how a motorcycle engine sounds; In Fallout 2 and Fallout tactics, there are a lot of working vehicles, ie blimps, hummers, tanks, etc. The BoS have Vertibirds, also. They know how an engine sounds.
He also said ten caps, so I feel like this is more like joking about how all the enemies you kill have such shitty stuff while you in comparison have like thousands of caps and enough firepower to clear a town.
Would have been completely hilarious if the player brought up his inventory screen to show a desk fan, close the screen, then look down briefly and shake side to side.
Omg that was such an annoying phrase, they think new vegas had it tough, try the irradiated water everywhere in fallout 3, or robots that act like humans and your son is their head in 4
There might be several stories about this guy. After an incident where I was lured into a trap by raiders, the back alley raiders talked about how they pulled the same trick on the guy. I need to know more about this man.
Imagine you kill thousands of raiders, super mutants, behemoth, deathclaw and etc then one day some low life peasants insult you for carrying a desk fan.
@@shortleader0958 yes, because the Fallout world is simultaneously in the future and the past, which is why all the pre-war stuff looks like it’s from the 50’s
I was looking for the bit where he says "don't start talking crazy!" and the other guy just starts laughing like a mad man. That laugh is hilariously OTT.
Haha they actually recycle that line a lot in the game, but it's still really funny when it happens. Have you ever gone into one of the houses where there's a raider and a little cat? It's actually really cute, but I killed the Raider anyway. The cat just acted like nothing happened because, well, he's a cat. xD
Me killing one of their patrols: BRRRRAAAAPPPP POP POP POP. Other raiders: "What the hell was that? I must be hearing things." "Yeah. Lay off the jet."
I really like what they did with the raiders. If you’re not detected by them and listen to their conversations, they feel just as human as you. That’s the kind of thing I adore in video games. Making NPCs feel *alive & real*
No way. There's a connected story to this LMAO I LOVE FALLOUT. Other raiders were talking about the same guy and how he was acting like he was throwing grenades and making noises lmao
I mean they have working vertibirds. So someone repairing an old motorcycle isn't to far of. Besides comic books also exist and maybe some holotapes could have told about motorcycle
I always thought about how cool it would be to hear this, then one day your exploring the wasteland and find a dude running while making motorcycle sounds. There are several groups of raiders that mention this guy, i guess i was dissatisfied when i realized that bethesda didnt add this guy to the game for the player to stumble across.
How do they know what a Desk Fan is? They grew up 200 years after total nuclear destruction, and generations down the line they still teach about ancient objects like a desk fan and motorcycle?
Considering there are working cars in the Fallout universe (not many, but still) it's reasonable to assume there might also be functional motorcycles and for that matter, desk fans.
@@Kojak0 We don't see working cars, but we see working desk fans. There are no cars functioning in Bethesda Fallout lore, else we'd see them in Fallout 76 since it's only 25 years after the war and people who can use cars should still exist.
@@oddtomato1049 yeah but 200 years later (f4) youd think someone would have found an automotive repair manual and enough parts to get some working. But the real question.... is where tf are the bicycles?
I like to think that the Fallout we know is some downgrade of how the environment really is or something. Maybe there's areas where motorcycles have been fixed up and able to travel out. Idk, anything to avoid knowing we're 200 in the future and nobody cares to clean up the skeletons around at least.
@@oneangryboi408 With tech like weaponized lasers and plasma, multitude of robots, vertibirds and teleportation tech, no way they don't have motorcycles.

I feel like this also might be a neat reference to Warhammer 40K? The orks in that universe being extremely succeptible to imagination-induced placebo and such
“Who carries around a desk fan?” Minutes later after sending a mini nuke in their direction and stripping their lifeless corpses for loot… Me: “Am I a joke to you?”
There was some raider dialogue I only heard once and can't find any videos of. In the police station by bunker hill after the 2 raiders pinned down behind the evidence room turret got up and dealt with it they started talking about joining up with jared of corvega assembly, and every time they said his name they would pause. One of them said, "Do you really want to work for a guy named... Jared." and "They get pushed around by a guy named... Jared. We'll be running the place in a month."
There's another one of these stories, I think they're told by the raiders behind the place where you get green paint. This time the dude was held up by said raiders, then he started doing his motorcycle gig again. The raider was so amused, he just let him go 😂
So far every rumor i encountered in fallout 4 from NPCs have been true. I wonder if I’ll ever encounter this motorcycle guy or maybe I already killed him while he wasn’t playing pretend.
@@personme9871 mate, do you really think stumbling upon the same damn obnoxious thing over and over again for years from any video about fallout, Bethesda, obsidian, etc. is pleasant?
Damn is he talking to DMX because homeboy Raider Scavver couldn't keep his damn voice down for shit..lol Damn wasteland version of DMX. Except he's addicted to Chems and not Crack lol. Rest in peace to DMX though.
super mumtants look very similar to WH40k orks. and its a common ork thing that if enough of them belivei in somwthing hard enough it will be real. so that guy pulled off a real ork tactic against these orkish mutants, and it worked!
One time during a battle a female raider said "Come on hurry up and die I have children to feed" , then i blew her up and im like "Whoops guess their orphans now LOL".
Theres a mission where you have to break into a hardware store that is occupied by raiders and if you sneak in there they tell another story about this guy walking into the same store, making grenade and machine gun noises and then backing out and dipping out on a mouth motorcycle.
Regarding how they would know how a motorcycle engine sounds;
In Fallout 2 and Fallout tactics, there are a lot of working vehicles, ie blimps, hummers, tanks, etc. The BoS have Vertibirds, also. They know how an engine sounds.

How do they know what a motorcycle sounds like.

Motorcycles canonically exist in the Fallout universe

By the sounds of it, The Guy who imitates random objects and stuff sounds like an interesting character.

Dude the wildest thing about this conversation is that it's directly related to a completely different gang of raiders behind Hardware Town.
I wish this was a random encounter you could witness in the world.
Me killing one of their patrols: BRRRRAAAAPPPP POP POP POP.
Other raiders: "What the hell was that? I must be hearing things."
"Yeah. Lay off the jet."
They're always high so hallucinating gun shots and screaming is probably normal to them.

There is another story like that told by the raiders guarding the back of the store where one of them tries to bait you at the front entrance.
Raiders are crazy but their stories are even crazier
The first time that you come to apparel street by the minutemen mission inside the raiders have a good story too
About a guy that is afraid of fire
The anti Material rifle in fallout 4 you get for completing the quest says new California republic on it and it also has a two headed bear
well at least the Raiders and mutants have some sence in there head.
Raider - who carries a fan???
Sole Survivor - it's a hobby and a way of life!! Shut up!! (Takes out THE FAT MAN)
No way. There's a connected story to this LMAO I LOVE FALLOUT. Other raiders were talking about the same guy and how he was acting like he was throwing grenades and making noises lmao
How would they know what a motorcycle sounds like?
Good question. I assume that working vehicles in the wasteland are canon, but just can't be see in-game then.
Working vehicles are canon... Bethesda just isn't willing to update their engine to make them work.
I mean they have working vertibirds. So someone repairing an old motorcycle isn't to far of. Besides comic books also exist and maybe some holotapes could have told about motorcycle

There’s actually another part of the story between the two raiders behind Hardware Town
This is the funniest shit I've seen all day
“Who carries around a desk fan?”
Minutes later after sending a mini nuke in their direction and stripping their lifeless corpses for loot…
Me: “Am I a joke to you?”
How do they know what motorcycles sound like?
real question is how anyone of them knew what a motocycle is or what it would sound like
Because there’s literally motorcycle parts all over fo3 and new Vegas
Who did they shoot
some random wastelander they robbed
A corpse
Funny story, not sure how the crazy man or the raiders knew what motorcycles sounded like, but funny anyhow
After the conversation: SPOTLIGHT-ON
aight you cant kill those raiders their keepers
it was crazy frog
I would almost think this is a 40k reference xD

Wait, is the crazy guy they're talking about the same guy from hardware town's raiders story?
Desk fans are like some of the best junk items though.
I shot these guys with a junk launcher full of desk fans
Local Stand user does a little light trolling on his motorcycle Stand: “Born to Run”.
I ran into this also. So I killed them both with the junk jet loaded with desk fans.

my issue is i collect as much junk as possible so i can sell it and substitute it for caps and then never do
How the hell do they know what a motorbike sounds like? It's been 200 years since the world was blown to shit.

Motorcycle Grenade Guy weaponized the power of belief on the super mutants who by their own logic are wh40k orks, in some sense.

Who carries around a desk fan!? A man that needs screws, obviously
Lol say what you want, the raiders didn't attack the "biker"
It's not stupid/insane if the dude got to live another day

Theres a mission where you have to break into a hardware store that is occupied by raiders and if you sneak in there they tell another story about this guy walking into the same store, making grenade and machine gun noises and then backing out and dipping out on a mouth motorcycle.
I got the feeling the voice acting where going off script for a joke and the game devs. Etc found it funny and put the game.
The Guy in the rayder storie was using the Power of the orks from Warhammer.

The "trainscendentalism" is still my favorite.
That's why they called him Henry David Thorough

one time i heard
"ooooOOH shut the fuck up i hear something"
So who carries a deskfan well me obviously so I can scrap it for later
Wow I can't believe Bethesda put a reference to me in fallout
Its also like the only one I remember in the whole game.
I'm almost 100% sure this was some reference to some character from real life or fictional one.
Don't shame my desk fans. I just wanted some damn screws!
