Arc Hammer posted:There's Vault 33 where Lucy and Overseer Kyle McLachlan are from, and Chris Parnell Vault. Walton Goggins is doing his Vault-Tec sales pitch from Vault 4, which might be the Parnell vault but who knows. I think Vault 4 could have been a demo vault. They had one or two of those in the lore, even if they aren't ever shown in the games. I'm kind of wondering about the eye patch/pregnant machine gun lady though. Maybe it was one of the vault experiments and they all get occasionally drugged up with something that makes them psychopathic because we see her before the machine gun, during, and after with the eye patch. Maybe some raiders get in or something, but it looks interesting. I'm looking forward to it, but I'm really worried about Nolan being the dude in charge. I loved the first season of Westworld, but it went downhill real, real fast after that.

Tankbuster posted:yeah but we have actual real examples in places where after natural disasters people build things out of scrap. In case of societal collapse there would be no skilled labor and materiel flooding in to fix everything up to a pretty looking state. Which is weird, because in Fallout there are still at least a few factories in Fallout 4 alone that weren't damaged too badly and an absolute poo poo ton of terminals and books around to help people learn how to do stuff. Toss in the fact they had solved fusion power, and people in the vaults at least should have the info for how to keep a reactor running long enough to get a society up and running again. There'd be scrap houses for a while, but a power source like fusion solves an absolute poo poo ton of of problems. Basically it's a game, and it's a tv show based on a game. It's not going to be realistic, but it looks fun. Kavak posted:Denver. I think the Legion killed a lot of them though Not all, they still capture some of them to use in their armies I think. Still hosed up.

I did like how the very first person Lucy meets outside she runs up with her gun pointing at them, like how a player is always running around with their gun out in the games. I know there's a way to holster it, but I don't think anyone who plays ever holsters it unless they have to.Diabetic posted:Did I miss something at one point? This show put a pretty big revelation about Vault-Tec Dropping the bombs, not China or the US. That has always been one of those things that kind of depends on which developer you ask. I know there are terminals scattered throughout the games along with some stuff on some of the item models the bomb in Megaton in FO3 has a Vault-Tec logo, for example that muddies the water. So far we've seen Vault-Tec say they were going to drop the first bomb but they haven't done it yet.

BrotherJayne posted:You go 10% faster with your weapon holstered or some such in most games/mods Honestly this was the first I'd heard of it, not even a loading screen tool tip or anything. And whenever I've seen gameplay videos people always have them out. Maybe it's just a me thing, but I rarely holstered it.

grobbo posted:As a nice surprise, they should have a veteran adventuring party in S2 made up of the working Hollywood actors who did a quick VA gig for some 1997 video game and haven't thought about it since. Honestly, have them find some skeletons sitting around a campfire with three holotapes, one next to each of them. Probably easier to get three actors to record a few lines than it is to have them show up.

covidstomper58 posted:Unless someone has figured it out or I missed it, they haven't figured out what the experiment Vault 33 and 32 were running. I figured it was just this way they'd have a more believable reason to control, for lack of a better term, breeding in the vaults. If you're working to create the perfect manager through selective breeding you'd need to able to control it. The show opened with Lucy having to apply to be able to have children, which in these vaults required a transfer from one vault to another, and having no real control over who she was stuck with. That's how you'd breed plants or livestock, prevent it from reproducing with anything other than something you want it to and see what the result is. This way they have a perfect reason to move only one or two people over as needed, and if something went wrong in one vault they could just expand to the next without any real issues other than potentially slowing down the experiment a little.

Argas posted:Yeah, it's hilarious how clumsy guns could be in the hands of power armored troops. It really solidified that the Brotherhood's technological superiority has enormous flaws. The BOS seemed to do at least a little bit right with the power armor. Maximus and a lot of the other squires are following along behind the (mostly) bullet-proof armored guys and shooting, while the power armored guys are carrying bigger guns. You can even see Maximus with his hand on the Knights shoulder to make sure he's staying close and to kind of guide the guy who can't see as well through tight quarters. If they put a little more thought into how they used the armor they might be better off, I think the Ghoul knew how the army used to use it and knows these guys are just dipshits.

dr_rat posted:Hasn't ghouls often turning into feral ghouls been a thing for quite a while now? Mainlining drugs to keep it at bay seems to be a new thing, but ghouls turning I feel has been a thing for a while now. Yeah, it seems like it's always been a bit fuzzy though. Some ghouls formed instantly with enough radiation, some take longer, some need a lower level over a long time etc. Feral or not kind of depends on if they want to make a new non-feral ghoul character.

Megillah Gorilla posted:Another question - who was the doctor working for that they had the cold fusion chip? Was it a straight up Vault Tec facility? He was working for the Enclave, a faction from the games. They had connections to Vault-Tec. There's not a lot of scientists in the post-apocalypse, so having someone work on something in their spare time that they enjoy wouldn't be crazy. He had to escape, it's not like he's given free reign to come and go so really it wouldn't be a security risk. And for that particular faction, a lot of them are true believers and wouldn't want to leave. The fusion core thing is kind of a misnomer. They call them that, but in reality it's just a really small fission reactor. Basically it's a corporation who promised way more than they could provide and propaganda in tandem. Besides, cold fusion is something many people have heard of and if it were real would be really, really useful compared to regular fusion.
