"you heard clicking" in text logs ?

[dskpnk]

What the red log message "you heard clicking" means ?

[Kilgore]

It means that some creatures will appear soon.

[dskpnk]

ok thx !

[Strike]

I think those text are pretty useless, and it would be fine that no text would appear when creature come.

Mostly what comes against is rats, dogs and mantis with little more HP than usual. Yet easily to be killed.

i got this while walking around on bear traps trying to get to a little box... then i got knocked out by the bear traps and didn't see anything.

little more then usual ? their hp is based on your level

i already seen deathclaw with over 3k hp 

[Strike]

i already seen deathclaw with over 3k hp 

And this is again overkill, anyway I would like to see one of those with my ArmStrong.

my lvl was around 200, now im 275 lvl so it should have even more hp

[Struan]

Well the fact that d-claw lvl scaling has a cut off makes alot of sense actually seeing as how hp doesn't continue rising after soft cap. Imagine being lvl 200 with 247hp and finding 10,000hp d-claw. A decent player with alot of patients could most likely kill it but still seems silly to me.

Maybe not the most useful thing in the world, but it also can tell you what creature will appear:

What robots does this mean? Mr.Handy or Floating ones?

I don't know, in 2238 this message wasn't really used, because there was no robot predators, but it was meant for all kinds of robots.

Oh yeah, there wasn't any encounter with robots so how would there be any kind robot enemies outside of Glow.
