I would refer you to the cars in Destiny languishing in Kazakhstan (it is NOT OLD RUSSIA DAMMIT!!!)

Bah, all those former Soviet countries are essentially Old Russia. tongue

I'm kidding.

Well, the research team has admitted that stuff wouldn't survive nearly as well as it has done in the games. For one thing, there wouldn't be nearly as much left of the buildings, let alone the foods and the electronics.

Never underestimate a population's avoidance of SPAM.

Glad to see some places in F4 seem more rebuilt, though, more so that F3 was . I'm just hungry for more details on how things are going to connect, plus want to see some more examples of dialogue etc, not just the shiny explosions.

Powah wouldn't even be the issue. Cars already run on fusion, just need some jury rigging to get it to accept cells. The issue would be literally everything else.

Tires are done and I doubt you'll find an air compressor anywhere in the wastes. Let's say you get a hand pump and fill all the tires, you can now move, yay! Now you just need to fix the engine which, if you're very lucky, isn't too rusted as to be useless. So where are you going to get replacement parts? I guess in theory you could take apart every single car you come across and maybe scrape together a fully working engine. Now you just need to do about a dozen other parts that are in perfect working order and ba-boom! You now have a car! No roads to drive it on and you'll be the biggest target for everything between here and 'ronto but you can now get nowhere slightly faster!

I'm almost certain the NCR has running motor vehicles by now. And any other halfway decemt place should, too. It's been 200 years, you had plenty of time to figure this out.

I believe that was stated outright in New Vegas. There were trucks that looked intact at more than a few of the military bases. The Legion doesn't have vehicles because of course they don't, the Boomers have that one plane. The Brotherhood had an airship in that non-canon game, but that's it.

Yes, the NCR Trucks do run, multiple dialog lines confirm it...

We just never see them work in game. :/

Talon company back in 3 also had working trucks.

It's not impossible you just need a whole lotta resources and it doesn't make sense on the frontier where something's trying to kill you every quarter mile.

There's plenty of running vehicles in the NCR, the engine just sucks so we can't see them.

Not to mention the Enclave, aside from their Vertibirds I'm sure they have some.

Well, I hope to hell whoever is taking his place is better than that fucking stoner from New Vegas.

I like Mr. New Vegas.

He always says the sweetest things

I dont like him, he was the reason I never listened to newvegas radio.

A good DJ makes or breaks it, and he was bad.

....

Hell Enclave radio was more enjoyable to listen too.

I get enough of Three Dog on the Science Channel, lol. The voice actor narrates NASA's Unexplained Files.

Which I enjoy, despite the occasional crackpot theory.

Sure he repeated things a lot but I like the smooth voice thingy he had going on.

Fits the rest of the music in Fallout.

I loved Mr. New Vegas, found Three Dog kind of grating after awhile.

Mr. New Vegas is Wayne Newton! How can you hate him?

Yeah, who better as Mr. New Vegas than Mr. Las Vegas. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

But it seems Three Dog has gone the way of Sgt. Johnson, promised girlfriend in Halo 4, dies in Halo 3. :''(

And I can't see cars working in the engine that gave birth to "Horse Physics".

He's hateable but I don't hate him. He really is a DJ. Not sure what Three Dog's VA is besides a VA.

Mr. New Vegas is actually Mr. Las. Vegas in the real world, and he probably was just playing himself in the Wasteland.

I'm glad they're not using Three Dog again. I didn't mind him, but it would have felt like a stretch having him move to Boston.

Also, I don't know if anyone's pointed this out yet, but November 10th is exactly 149 days after Bethesda's E3 showcase on June 14th - 1 day short of the time limit in the original Fallout.

♭What.

Three Dog kept track of your accomplishments; he felt like he was real, instead of just a voice.
