    Why on Earth were Ulysses and Father Elijah doing in Big MT

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 12:32 PM PDT

    I was playing the other day, came across Father Elijah camps and his special weapons. He mentions another Courier and you see Ulysses' marks everywhere.

    Did overseers live in the vaults prior to the great war?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 06:23 AM PDT

    Also, how long were the completed vaults sitting empty/with minimal people living in them before the great war?

    How do the people of Freeside have any food?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 08:33 AM PDT

    They are impoverished, have no farms nor it seems much trade so how do they eat?

    Westside has a grocery store and farms up the ying yang. North Vegas salvages scrap to sell for food, and they have a small enough population that they probably buy from westside. but what about Freeside? I hear little of traders trading with the place, and nothing of food production.

    Do they just hunt rodents and whatever creatures lurk about and eat that?

    Is there any indication that Mr. House knew about Big Mountain or had any plans for it?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 05:50 PM PDT

    It seems like he would know about it and its location, given that they were attempting to deconstruct and improve his securitron design. They also likely served as a general competitor to RobCo in the technology/defense sector before the war. Given that the place was a gold mine of prewar technology and renewable resources, it seems likely that House would at least consider factoring it into his plans for the future of mankind. Is there any instance of him acknowledging its existence?

    Why was SLC Utah so heavily hit during the Great War?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 03:35 PM PDT

    Salt Lake City pales in comparison to larger target cities like DC, Boston, Vegas, And California as a whole. I know DC wasn't hit as hard because its heavily protected as the Capitol and Vegas was defended by Mr. Houses Personally funded anti air defense systems. However, Boston was hit once, Pittsburgh is still able to produce steel, and California is "thriving." Utah has 2 major bases. Hill Air Force Base located 23 miles north of SLC and Tooele Army Depot located 40 miles south west of SLC. 1 or 2 Nukes could easily disable the city and the Nearby Air Force Base should have been able to stop some of if, if not all of the missiles.

    What do the wastelanders use as a gun oil?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 09:25 PM PDT

    I know that there's an "oil" crafting component in Fallout 4, but that ain't gonna cut it.

    While working on a Fallout-related project the other day I was thinking about weapon maintenance in games, especially in Fallout: New Vegas. There's the NCR with their big army; there are mercenaries, raiders, settlers and other rabble - armed with firearms, for the most part. Firearms that need to be constantly maintained. By no means I'm a gun nut, but I still can imagine what you need to clean your firearm - ramrods/brushes/mops/etc. These tools can be manufactured or mass produced - no problem.

    But what about lubricants? Solvents? Granted, the latter could be ethanol-based, which is relatively accessible by any major faction due to farming. What about gun oil though? All information I've scavenged implies that only mineral oil could be used with a gun. The same oil that is pumped out of the the Earth and fractionally distilled into whatever product you want. The same oil that has effectively ceased to be available (aside from few exceptions) before the Great War. Moreover, I didn't ever see mentions of running post-war oil extraction/processing facilities.

    Coal liquefaction, while possible, is... Both direct and indirect (T-F) processes of liquefaction are really demanding, both from a technological and a resource points of view, especially if you consider the limitations of devastated post-nuclear world. Not sure that the brahmin-herding NCR could pull off whole synthetic oil production, let alone any other smaller/weaker faction.

    I'm really sorry for all this incoherent mumbling, but I was trying to find out answer to the damned question instead of sleeping. I not think good now.

    TL;DR: what the hell the wastelanders are using as a gun oil when there's no oil left in the world?

    Why did the door of Vault 101 even open?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 09:01 PM PDT

    A lot of the Vault Tec vaults were experiments. The experiment of Vault 101 was that the Vault was never supposed to open up. Nobody ever enters and nobody ever leaves. So why didn't Vault-Tec come up with a failsafe to make sure the Vault door genuinely could not be opened?

    What was The Divide before it was destroyed?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 04:55 PM PDT

    Besides Ulysses' less than half a dozen lines describing the place, is there any more information on what the Divide (as in the small community) was before it was destroyed by the courier? For example, it's economy, size, demographics, or literally anything else. Considering Ulysses' dislike of the NCR, Legion, Robert House, the BOS, and presumably the enclave (for it's bastardization of the American Identity) is it possible to narrow down what kind of politics/government structure the settlement had?

    Is migration of the mutated creatures ever talked about?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 10:02 AM PDT

    Is there any canonical discussion about how the new species move around the US? ie, coldblooded deathclaws living in Oregon or Massachusetts? Or how stingwings (scorpionflies) moved to the east coast? A lot can just be assumed about them, but I'm wondering if anythings ever been concretely stated in the lore.

    How advanced were the Chinese? How good is their tech compared to the US?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 09:33 PM PDT

    Always curious about this. I've only played F3 and NV and only know that they were more advanced in stealth tech and spying. Are there any examples of their technology?

    Also curious about this but how was the power armor such a game-changer that the US were push into Beijing and nearly beat China before the bombs dropped? It's not like power armor makes you immune to all forms of attack of something, or is the gap in technology really that big?

    What does the pip-boy actually do?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 11:08 AM PDT

    So for us as characters in the games, it gives us access to weapons, clothes, radio and such, but what does it do for other vault dwellers?

    In the wasteland everyone says how valuable pip-boys are, but what does it do help them so much?

    How dangerous is inland of NCR?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 01:04 PM PDT

    So I'm almost done with fallout 1 all I have left is it kill the Master, and in my travels across the west coast wasteland I've come across all sorts of creatures just walking around. So when Shady Sands converted the hub and junktown, did they kill all of the creatures? I would assume after 46 years of them being "civilized" there would be no deathclaws, radscorpions, or even Raiders between 2 major cities.

    Plans for civilians during the invasions

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 01:25 PM PDT

    Both the USSA and China really didnt care about what would happen to the others civillians even before the bombs fell. USSA Had the Super Mutant program which was designed to fight guerilla warfare and kill indescrimitaly and survive by eating people. China had the little spider like robots seen in 76 that were designed to shoot and kill everything that is not a chinese soulder.

    What happened to he mercenaries that were paid to protect the courier??

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 06:52 AM PDT

    Why are there female White Legs warriors?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 10:45 AM PDT

    How come they don't follow legion doctrine and allow women to fight? It seems Ulysses sucks at his job of converting tribes to Legion...
