The Radscorpion enemy in Fallout 4 has learned a new terrifying skill: burrowing up buildings. Radscorpions, known for their high HP, poison, and small vulnerability area, are already feared by players, but with their newfound ability, they are even more frightening. Footage surfaced on the Fallout 4 subreddit showing a player standing on a tower block and taking a shot at a Radscorpion on the ground. The player then turns attention to a Legendary Raider on a nearby rooftop, but their companion Dogmeat soon raises the alarm as the Radscorpion pops up from the top of the building. It appears the creature was able to burrow into the ground, tunnel upwards, and take revenge on the player for the earlier attack.
One Reddit user described the Radscorpion as the Usain Bolt of its kind. Others have noted how agile and flexible the creature is, making it even more terrifying for players. Some players have also reported similar instances with other enemies, including Ghouls and Molerats, but it is yet to be determined if this is a bug or an intended feature of the game. The Radscorpion’s new ability comes after Bethesda released the highly anticipated next-gen update for Fallout 4. The game has been experiencing an increase in players since the success of the Prime Video series Fallout, of which season two will be set in New Vegas.
While the addition of the Radscorpion’s newfound ability certainly causes concern for players, it adds a level of excitement and challenge to the game. The enemy list in Fallout 4 is already robust and creative, making it one of the most popular games in the series. While some players might find the Radscorpion’s new ability frustrating or scary, it is likely a welcome addition for hardcore Fallout fans who appreciate a challenge. Ultimately, it remains to be seen if other enemies in the game will also gain new abilities, but it would not be surprising given Fallout’s history of keeping players on their toes
