    How can black powder weapons still have viable gun power 200 years after the bombs

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 10:55 AM PDT

    With the broad sider in Fo4 needing gun powder one must ask where is the gunpowder coming from? The cannon balls I understand stand but cannon grade gun powder? That needs to replaced once every couple of years. So where and How is the Sole survivor getting the gun powder.

    How do merchants carry caps?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 09:44 PM PDT

    According to Wiki, a 10mm submachine gun worth around 2000 caps. That means if a merchant sold 5 SMGs, they would have to carry over 10 thousand caps on them. The weight and danger would be a serious problem. How do they solve this?

    How aware are the separate wastelands of each other?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 07:44 AM PDT

    In each game usually only the brotherhood or Enclave are well informed, the NCR is pretty clueless on anything too far beyond the Colorado, the raiders don't seem to care, the legion doesn't care, small cities don't seem to care, and the only news from other parts of the North American wasteland comes from caravans. So I ask how aware of each other is everyone?

    What was the point of the Vault experiments?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 08:26 PM PDT

    Of the very limited amount of vaults, a vast majority of them weren't designed to prevent the destruction of humanity but instead to carry out inhumane and morally questionable experiments. But why? Who is supposed to use the research if the entire population of the vault was supposed to die, like Vault 81? Vault-Tec was destroyed by the bombs, so it's not like they could've used the research. What was the point?

    What actually became of the Vault-Tech company as a working business entity?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 02:53 PM PDT

    Vault-TEC.

    The idea of a company is to last beyond the lives of it's owners and employees. We have companies today in America that are several hundred years old, some trademarks and brands across the world that are much older. Vault-Tec was selling security, so what was the security that they took for themselves? We find so many failed experiements and empty Vault-Tec offices, but there had to be some segment of the company that had the foresight to get things right and create a Vault for themselves?

    I was playing 76 the other night and got started thinking about this, and couldn't recall any explainations for what happened to the actual company, whether it's still out in the wastes or transformed into some other entity.

    Wouldn't the company need to have remained active in some form to aggregate all of the results of their social experiments? If not, then what's any of it really for?

    Would people living in the Commonwealth be aware that there are landmasses to their east?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 05:35 AM PDT

    I guess really what I'm asking is whether the people there roughly know their relative geographic location. We see that globes are everywhere in Fallout 4 so there is no reason for them to not know about Europe and Africa.

    Has there been evidence of ships leaving or arriving in the harbor in any of the games? I know we don't know much about how Europe faired Post-War but is this due to no ships crossing the Atlantic?

    How poisonous is the Mississippi River?

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 01:47 AM PDT

    The Mississippi River and her branches is the most important river in America. And we see in The Pitt that it's the waters forming the Ohio Rivers are horrifically irradiated and polluted.

    In 76 we see that environmental destruction for the war effort was common and there are several industrial cities that are on the Mississippi river water shed. Cincinnati, Louisville on the Ohio, and Chattanooga and Huntsville on the Tennessee. Any one of these could have been more nuke targets.

    So by the time that this river flows by Memphis or New Orleans, how fucked is it? And how many weird mutants and societies have formed on its banks?

    Is it feasible for Vulpes Inculta to have been in Denver after the first battle for the Dam?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 06:07 PM PDT

    I was thinking about it, I know taking Denver and the hangdog's tribe was a Lanius thing- but is it possible that Vulpes was there for any amount of time, or do you guys think he stayed in and around fortification hill after the first battle?

    Why is the environment so dead?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 03:14 PM PDT

    Just confused about why all the vegetation and oceans look so dead in the games. 200 years of little to no human interference in the form of pollution or large scale deforestation, of having little ocean travel, why is everything still dead. I don't expect things to be like Zion or Oasis, but Appalachia seemingly recovered almost instantly, why not the rest of the country ( I know Appalachia wasn't hit as hard, but its also much sooner than the other games). Why are the oceans specifically still disgusting when for all intents and purposes, there should be very little sediment and pollution clouding up the waters?

    Is Mothman Supernatural or Artificial?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 07:36 AM PDT

    In Fallout 76, some of the cryptids are known to a result of the FEV (Snallygaster, Grafton Monster), the Wendigo seems to be similar to feral ghouls, the Sheepsquatch appears to be an experiment, and the Flatwoods Monster is clearly an alien. But what is Mothman? Mothman appears to have the ability to teleport, and there is no in-game lore explaining what Mothman is. Is Mothman actually a Supernatural Cryptid?

    Why is there so much radiation outside Vault 87 in Fallout 3?

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 11:30 AM PDT

    I can't think of a feasible explanation for that one. The radiation is so intense I don't see it being a bomb strike (In Fallout 76 you get 55 rads/s from a nuke and you can experience 10 rads/s around Megaton if you nuke it, likewise if you enter the Glowing Sea in Fallout 4 with small pockets of radiation getting as intense as 96 rads/s), so why does it get to 30k+ rads/s near Vault 87's entrance? And why is the Pitt's river still so horribly contaminated? Surely that crap would have all gone to the oceans by now.
