What do they eat?
All the brooms were destroyed in the bombs and the knowledge to make brooms was lost so they cannot sweep up any of the rubble or debris.
>>729190348bad writing
>>729190348Raiders, probably. And fucking yaoguai.
>>729190348They eat the flesh of raiders.
>>729190348Moira's brown
>>729190981oh fuck yeah
>>729190348it's a video game they don't eat
ass
Reminder this is the game that coined the term “heterosexual life partners” because nigs couldn’t handle that the dudes in River City were gay.
>>729190348There are two restaurants in town
>>729190348>200 years after the bombs>Nobody has bothered to pick anything upShit Bethesda writing.
>>729190348deez
>>729191054kek qrd? I always enslave Flak anyways, even though it breaks Shrapnels AI package so he almost never tends shop.
why is there a fatman style bomb in megaton when that tech is over 100 years old at that point and the great war was fought with ICBMs
>>729190981no her feet
>>729191361that nuke was there before the war. it was a museum exhibit
>>729191078>Time to build our settlement around an unexploded nuclear bomb >It's leaking radiation into the water we drink too
>>729191897why would there be an active nuclear weapon on display in a museum
>>729192001um because Vault tech are le evil and behind everything. I hope fallout 5 gets canceled
>>729192001I was joking.I actually forgot that even Fallout 3 has an ICBM silo at Fort Constantine, so the Megaton bomb being an actual Fat Man style bomb makes less sense than it previously did.
>>729190348nuclear waste, why else would they build a city around a nuclear bomb?
>HEY, we don't take kindly to people giving water to hobos around here!
>children of the atom go from 3 retards dancing around a nuke to a huge faction on the east coast>also they are immune to radiation because reasonsevery single original faction that bethesda tries to make is a complete fuck upi mean hell just look at talon companyor the railroador the institute
>>729190348Food.
>>729192352>Talon CompanyAlways was really annoying that they are just well equipped raiders.And then they did it AGAIN with the Gunners!
>>729191361the chinese built a really really really REALLY big catapult due to scarce resources and flung it across the atlantic oceanthus the inspiration for the silly ass nuke catapult weapon
>>729190348Brahmin, geckos, ants, bloat flies, rad roaches, radscorpions
>>729192284why would you realistically do if three people that look exactly the same showed up and said this to you?
Magical brahmin meat from brahmins that don't need to graze
What if they did some of these things because it's a video game?
>>729192352nothing its more retarded that the child of pentagon ruins becomes a retarded version of future john connor with no real reason why he hate terminators and skynet he is just there with his warship far north i hope next episode ugly pahjeet in amazon show its maxson KEK
>>729192352they just stole the idea from the cathedral in fallout 1, who stole it from wasteland
>>729192570use my irradiated water thrower at them
>>729191361Rule of cool fag. You know what isn't cool? Being some hyper autist fixating on why this is anachronistic when the entire series is, is just pathetic
>>729192702Fallout 1 is a direct sequel of wasteland.
>The appearance of the rocket is nearly identical to the Titan-II ballistic missile used by the United States during the Cold War>The first Titan II launch, Missile N-2, was carried out on 16 March 1962guess that's another post 50s weapon NV has :^)
why did dad create a "trap" in the control room of the purifier he was trying to fix that summons instantly deadly radiation from nowhere when any code, correct or wrong, is input unless you have the plot syringe on you like autumn that doesnt exist anywhere else in the setting unless you have DLC wherein you just sleep it off for two weeks and everything is fine
>>729192848>Rule of cool fag.But this shit ain't cool. It's cringe as fuck.
>>729192352>children of the atom go from 3 retards dancing around a nuke to a huge faction on the east coastwhy is this something crazy? christianity, islam, and many sects of both all came from a couple dozen retards dancing around and later expanded exponentionally. >they are immune to radiationthis a fault of the general writing of fallout, but it seems like radiation in their universe doesn’t work like ours. there is medicine you can take to reduce radiation level or become resistant to it, so the idea that a bunch of guys can come up with medicines that can make them immune or grow a tolerance to it doesn’t sound too far fetched.
>>729192903No the fuck its not? You're methed tf out.
Anyone has the image of Supernintendo Chalmers describing how retarded Fallout 3 plot is?
>>729193036Why? You need to see it again? Can't remember how stupid it is?
>>729193001Fallout 1 is 100% inspired by Wasteland. I think it even has some of the same developers. It is a spiritual sequel.
>>729193073>Why? You need to see it again? Can't remember how stupid it is?Yes. That's why I'm asking.
>>729191948realistically if it was like that the whole dc wasteland would be an irradiated empty wasteland with like 100 people in it like Fukushima
>>729191361Don't think about it. Just don't think. Just consume Microsoft and Amazon products.
>>729192510At least Talon Company had a contract out on you, the Gunners exist solely because the map can't be ENTIRELY generic raidersLike imagine how cool it would be if you could work with the Gunners in Greentech to get an in with a side faction
>>729193301>You have been giving too much water to beggars>So someone spent thousands of caps (because everyone in the wasteland uses caps at the same time without having meeting each other because of reasons) to kill youTodd, you sucks.
>>729192961It builds character.
>>729193408I'm not saying it wasn't retarded but at least there was an attempt at an excuse That goes for a lot of Fallout 3 to be honest
>>729193515I wish I could just present something mediocre and lazily put together to my boss and say to him "At least there's an attempt there, boss".
>>729193470why liam neesum
>>729191361I don't think Bethesda gave a reason.I like to headcanon it was being transported by plane to be recycled into fuel or something but the bombs made the plane crash.
>>729191220>its 2008 >two gay guys run a merchant stall in the game>no one wants to admit they're gay>cant argue with the circumstances>some autists says that they're "hetero sexual life partner" pushes it really hard>he eventually gets banned from multiple forums and hangs himself in 2017
>>729191361because that bomb is a fake that was constructed by the children of atom from pre war surviving records
>>729193105Inspired sure, the term those in the know use is "spiritual successor" which Fallout ACTUALLY is. Not a fucking direct sequel.
>>729191948Everyone outside the Vault and their offspring and their DNA has been inoculated by the FEV and radiation poisoning is merely a daily condition / occurence for everyone in the wasteland, you simply take Radaway once in a while. And that's just a puddle of water you retard. They literally have a water plant with a water purifier at top. You get a quest here, swapping junk metals for cash and there's like a hiding thief/junkie inside.
>>729194104I choose to believe this is true.
>>729192960cool hat
>>729191361Because Bethesda didn't bother to fucking read anything about FO1-2, including the manuals.The GECK is more like a star trek replicator, not a world-devouring terraforming machine. Supermutants are in fact able to organize, make a leader, and live peacefully with humans.Nuclear weapons are mostly missiles not fatman styled nukes lmao.No the Enclave would not try helping wastelanders with free water, what the fuck.
>>729190348why are you like this? it's a video game it isn't real
>>729196976>The GECK is more like a star trek replicator, not a world-devouring terraforming machine.I gotta be honest, I like the Bethesda version better. I expect something referencing God’s incomprehensible power which was used to create the first life and later man to be an utterly horrifying piece of technology that has the potential to wipe out and rebirth entire species.
>>729198345>I gotta be honest, I like the Bethesda version betterThat's great, the Vault handbook was still made first so you're shit out of luck.
>>729198345>>729196976How the GECK functions in every game is ambiguous as hell. Especially 3 where it was nothing short of magic.
>>729199025It's not ambiguous at all, it's a star trek replicator that can turn dirt and trash into resources before it runs out of power.
>>729198345It's gay. 2 has it be filled with a bunch of shit to restart the soil and build prefab homes using the vault's systems, 3s is just magic because Todd is a retardd.
>>729196976>The GECK is more like a star trek replicatorMaybe. It was described to have "seeds" in it along with other stuff to help bootstrap society, like a fusion generator. The idea was that the GECK would gradually be disassembled for its various parts, and that would be the main value it provided. In that sense, it actually would be reasonable to use something in it for the water purifier in the DC region. But it seems to have some kind of crazy energy field when you turn it on so who the fuck knows. Bethesda just wanted a MacGuffin.
>>729190348>>729190912What does Primm eat?>>729191078New Vegas is full of trash
>>729190348Whatever the traders bring in, retard.
>>729199762bighorns and corm
>>729196976the manual GECK is fucking stupid filler they thought of in an afternoonWe have seen a place where they used a GECK in Fallout 2, Vault City, and it's a small town that seems basically OK, not anything that required out of sight magical futuretech
>>729199832What do they sell?
>>729196976>o the Enclave would not try helping wastelanders with free water, what the fuck.there was nothing wrong with that.They were looking to control a water source that would let them dominate the region and help build themselves back up.
>>729199943>the manual GECK is fucking stupid filler they thought of in an afternoonTough shit, it came first, it's canon.What are you going to do about it, nigger?
>>729199970Vault City is more important
>>729200008Vault city was made exceedingly quickly and contains heaps of materials. They would in fact need a replicator to make all that shit so rapidly.
>>729199961same things the player buys
>>729200080it's been 50 fucking years since they left the vault
>What do they eat?>Uhm...Traders!>Where do the traders get what they trade? What is megaton selling to get the trade?>What the player buys!>Right, but where do they get those items?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From the traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From the traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From the traders>Where do the traders get what they trade?>From tradersUh oh!
>>729200151Moira’s unshaved and unwashed pussy? I didn’t realize she was supporting Megaton’s economy so heavily.
>>729200350>Where do the traders get what they trade?farms, retard.
>>729191078Why isn't anybody bothered to pick anything up here?
>>729200426There are no farms in the capital wasteland.There's actually no living plants outside Oasis lmao.
>>729200469shit man I guess those traders really get around then dont they
>>729200469oh no, anywayyou the type of retard who asks what do they eat while being in a grocery store, the kind that doesn't realize the farms are miles from your location.
>>729192284We don’t cotton to freaks who look one the same around these parts
>>729200350hunters and scavengers as well if there's no agriculture (although there is domestication)
>>729200461There are no humans to clean up.
>>729200461My bet would be the subhumans that inhabit that place. Fallout is set in territory of white people. White people clean shit up.
>>729200723You can't have animals without plants you fucking retard.Canonically the whole area is biologically dead. It has not rained for 200 years.
Grown men still crying about a fake videogame town 17 years later. Bethesda wanted to make a funny town built around a bomb in a crater end of story. Move on with your life and stop being a manchild.
>>729201005>Don't ask questions, just buy next product and get excited for next product!
>>729200892canonically there's plants and farms all over, we know this from Fallout 4, from the tv show, you are a massive retard.
>>729197229Does that give an excuse of having a one dimensional world building?
>>729201206There's literally no farms in the capital wasteland, nor can you really leave the place.
>>729201206Not in the Washington DC area there isn't
>>729190348prewar food
F1, and 2 took the time to show farms, why couldn't 3?
>>729201303>>729201308cope, there's farms around and there's traders, asking what they eat outs you as a big fat smelly retard
>>729201359F1 and F2 depict a far larger area you travel through, F3 depicts a much smaller area you're in. This shit is common sense, why are you people so fucking stupid.
>>729201401Post a picture of a capital wasteland farm.Anything but a picture of it is a concession to the debate.
>>729201461Show the farms.You can't, because you are black and subhuman.
>>729192570I would assume they are either triplets or part of a much larger clone army
>>729201218it isn't one dimensional, you have an autistic standard. the worldbuilding is totally sufficient. there is food in vendors inventories; traders, scavengers, and hunters in the wasteland, and the npcs are not starving to death. you are meant to interpret the rest yourself because video games can only give you so much given the limitations. the fallout bible is full of these autistic worldbuilding questions, and MCA tells people it's "video game logic" that the world is not 1:1 with reality
>>729201515In Fallout 1 and 2? There's a bunch of farms, and ranch too.
>>729201665lol stinky shitskin you can't win
>>729201612You're being retarded, if Fallout 3 just outright didn't say anything about food/water production nobody would be asking too many questions.The issue is that Fallout 3 goes out of it's way to make a plot about droughts.Guess what droughts lead to?FAMINE.But it's a game with droughts and famines despite nobody actually being ill from dehydration or starvation.Worse.It's a game where it's explicitly stated there is no plant-life in the whole area. Like as if Todd Howard has no idea what that means for the biosphere.WORSE YET.It's a game where it's explicitly stated there is no rainfall for 200 years.Not only geographically impossible for the DC area, but also yet worse implications for the environment.The game goes OUT OF IT'S WAY to make the worldbuilding retarded and impossible. But does not explain how this works.
>>729201515NTA but there's a lot of farms in Fallout 1 and 2
>>729201760Are you good, bro?
>>729201218Unironically yes
Fallout 3 also retcons water into being capable of being irradiated. That's not actually how water works, water doesn't get 'irradiated' because firstly it's hard to make radioactive isotopes of water, and they break down really fucking quickly.So the whole premise the game is founded on, is not actually canonical to the series at all.
>>729201761you are describing video game logic, try engaging with what i'm saying
>>729201879This, the Institute guy looking for his android rightly makes fun of the "science" team for being unable to purify the water.
>>729190348ass
>>729201981No I am describing the in-universe lore the game is written around. Pay attention you smoothbrained nigger.Fallout 3 is as retarded as Skyrim being about 'dragon attacks' where seemingly healthy people stand outside of cities talking about how dragons attacked them, so they need endless health potions. But there's no dragons in the game.
>>729201761>Guess what droughts lead to?>FAMINE.The game isn't about a drought you giga retard. It's about polluted water, leading to GHOULS.
>>729191078If you make your community nice then it becomes a bigger target for raiders. Keeping it shit keeps you safe.
>>729201879>water can't be radiatedretard alert
>>729202098Its about there not being enough clean water to sustain human life. Drinking irradiated water doesn't turn you into a fucking ghoul, it fucking kills you lmao.>>729202161It can't be irradiated for 200 fucking years IN A RIVER.
>>729202260canonically becoming radiated leads to ghoulism
>>729202260point out a single river in Fallout 3, I'll wait
>>729202342Being irradiated in Fallout kills you, it's been that way since the first game. Are you retarded?>>729202401https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potomac_RiverNot sure if retarded, or playing around.
>>729201612gotta be real with you, fallout 1 and 2 (and new vegas barring the legion) don’t suffer from any of this shit, and don’t need some of this “just turn your brain off” hand waving, they just know to worldbuild beyond “sufficient”
>>729201879It means that the water is contaminated with radioactive particulates.Not that the water itself is radioactive.
He was right. You are autistic as fuck if you care about this.
>>729202473the river doesn't exist in the game, we're done you're an absolute unit of retardation.
>>729202527What this brainless jock has to say is irrelevant even to his own family.
Has anyone been able to defend the zombrex the ghoul takes in the fallout show? Why the fuck did they decide to make ghouls take zombrex?
>>729202517Radioactive particles settle to the bottom of water and sediment keeps it covered. Also, even radioactive particulates have half lives you fucking retard.>>729202559https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Potomac_River>The river does not exist in the game
>>729202559Point out your father. What? You can't?
>>729202620>posted the same wiki article to a fake river
>>729201858Then you miss the whole point of an immersion. Sure, Fallout 3 does give a great post apocalypse aesthetic, but with the blend RPG mechanic, writing and the awful story quest design are gonna bite you in the ass at the end.Too bad Bethesda didn't learn their mistake on Fallout 4.
>>729202615It's a dumbass retcon because they made ghouls into regular people with missing noses.Ghouls in the OG games were horrific shambling people, they couldn't run, were generally miserable due to rotting/smelling bad/etc. Usually had brain damage too.Now Ghouls are 'just like us!' for some reason.
>>729202474the fallout bible is only concerned with 1 and 2. go ctrl f "game logic" to see the worldbuilding issues people have with those games
>>729202730>just like usExcept now they have a magic potion now that turns you into a ghoul?
>>729202742Is this your life? Going to 4chan and making shit up?
>>729202615Otherwise the normie audiences wouldn't understand the difference between sane ghouls and feral ones.They'd be constantly asking why the ghoul protagonist isn't a zombie like the other ones.
west coast best coast
>Fallout 1-2 could show gardens, small farms, actual progress being made>In the 90's>With fucking spriteworks>Fallout 3 can't show a single fucking corn stalk in somebody's back yardLol, lmao.>>729202775Yeah there's magic ghoulification potions, despite ghouls not actually being made that way. The potion works more like FEV, but injecting FEV can do god knows what to your body.
>>729202787There's no way that normalfags are that stupid, right?
>>729202953Hahahahahahaha. oh anon, you say the silliest things.
>>729202786https://images.fallout.wiki/c/cb/Fallout_Bible_Complete.pdfsince you're too lazy
>>729202953I'm actually surprised normalfags remember how to breath sometimes.
>>729202787I can picture the alternative universe where the show doesn't have the zombrex inhalers>Ayo Tayquandus, why dis nigga not biting dat hoe like the other zombies?>Shieett mayne I dunno, dude looks like some cowboy crackka though shiet>Dis show is stoopid, zombies not acting like zombies n all dat shit, lets watch some last of us
>>729190348deathclaw sperm
>>729199762food thats grown and imported you see through out the game you retarded nostolgia faggot
>>729190348The particles of Atom
>>729199943the way the GECK is described in Fallout 2 matches the manual's description.
>>729203362Notice how Renesco doesn't say it's a black hole terraforming unit that absorbs all nearby matter to create a paradise?
>>729196976>The GECK is more like a star trek replicator,not canon
>>729190348Fried molerat ass
>>729204016>Referred to as replicator in FO1 manual>Then referred to it as a replicator in FO2 as well>Not canonLol, lmao
>>729198345> I expect something referencing God’s incomprehensible power which was used to create the first life and later man to be an utterly horrifying piece of technology that has the potential to wipe out and rebirth entire species.Bro, that was marketing.
>>729194104I can believe this
fallout (and bethesda as a whole) is dead
Why does Bethesda think that plants are eternally dead?You get unfrozen 200 years after the bombs drop and sanctuary still has dead grass everywhere and the trees haven't rotted to mulch.Grass fucking grows everywhere and without someone cutting it, gets fucking tall.
>>729200461not my problem
>>729207398bethesda doesn't know plants are far more radiation resistant than animals will ever be
>>729190821moira brown literally has a sweeping animation that plays which includes a broom
>>729199762New vegas was using fallout 3 tech and they had less than a year to do it.
>>729200461It would just get littered again no reason to do anything about it
>>729202527Truked those nerds
>>729208158THEN WHY THE FUCK HAVEN'T THEY SWEPT UP ANY OF THE RUBBLE AND DEBRIS IN THEIR HOMES AND STREETS IN TWO HUNDRED YEARS
>>729202527Pevk
>>729190348breast milk cheese and semensicles
>>729193301Who is even paying them and why, what are they even going to spend their money on and where, how does a fully kitted out professional mercenary company even exist in a region that has at best the most basic forms of communal social organization and an economy that entirely revolves around people trading scrap back and forth.
>>729200461uhhhh, they banned the street cleaners
>>729201981The game wants to have it both ways It wants players to give a shit about the water purification project and the suffering caused by lack of clean water whole every town (full of 5 people) is full of food and water and apparently not starving to death while also living in a region that has been devoid of plant life for 200 years
>>729202527>makes a game where the entire central plot point revolves around access to clean drinking water
>>729190348You're not meant to think about it, Fallout 3 is a game for children
>>729190348Autistic retards. Luckily for you it's fictional.
>>729192352They were at least a better religious group/faction than The Hubologists in Fallout 2
Nothing
>>729200461there are more people living in a hectar of that place than in the entirety of Fallout 3's map
>>729190348Food they've scavenged from the local supermarket, apparently. It still didn't run out, and it still didn't spoil.>>729190821I've had some retard actually argue with me>Yes, it makes perfect sense that the floor is covered with dirty newspapers, and nobody cleans up. It's a post-apocalypse, people have better things to do.Faggot, maybe you are conditioned to live in a cockroach-infested dirty shithole, but for normal people making their living conditions tolerable is one of the first priorities.
>>729190348Stockholm allegedly shoot molerats from his guard plateform, something you would know if you played the game
