More special enounters

The One-Armed Bandit special encounter.

A one armed man carrying a sawn-off double barreled shotgun takes you by surprise demanding that you fork over some goods. Upon trying to give him something he has trouble handling both the goods and the gun and so asks you to hold his gun for a moment while he puts the goods in his stash, the rest is up to you and you are given a moment or two to end this confrontation with violence, if so you get a generic sawn-off shotgun, some raggy clothing and a measley amount of caps. If you decide to be merciful, he'll ask for his weapon back, thank you and be on his way and you'll gain karma.

You only give him 50 or so caps not ALL YOUR GOOD STUFF, jeez it's about funny people.

U r walking for days trip and hit ur head and when u come 2 the Master Frank Horrigan and Presidet from F3 are there and then u can talk 2 them ..... then they go away as u ask them "what will happen now?"

A kind of mini quest random encounter...
snip
A lot of thought went into my story, don't make fun of it. :unsure:


While wandering around you come across a man surrounded by frag mines. He will tell you that he was left there by raiders who thought it was funny and then he will ask you to disarm the mines. If you manage to disarm them the man will give you directions to a secret stash of ammo or money or something.

Both excellent ideas -- I really like them both. :)

Part of the original game actuarially, it was the encounter that dropped the firelance.

I was being sarcastic and it didn't say Exploding, it said Exploiting :P

"Horseshoe" You are out in the middle of the desert. Nothing around but sand. On the horizon, you see and animal. As you get closer you notice it's a Horse and it has a saddle, no one is around. As you get closer it starts to move away. If you run it runs. You can run after it but it just keeps running away. While running after it, it slowly dissolves into sand. Go to it's last location and in the sand will be a silver horseshoe. Having it in your invantory brings you luck.

If you shoot at it, it will dissolve into sand. Still get the horseshoe but it may not bring you luck.

Posted this idea before elsewhere.

A Post/mailman walking in the desert, He spots you comes over and says " You the courier, Gotta package for ya."
You take it he runs off, Then Blam C4 detonates.
And in the distance you hear him scream "Join the union scab"

"Jackalope" Come across a http://www.project610.com/files/jackalope.jpg. It will only stay around for a short time. If you shoot it and eat it. It will give you full health, even heal crippled limbs. Having it's bones in your invantory brings good luck. To bad everyone you encounter thinks it's fack.

If taxidermy will be in the game, you can use it for taxidermy :D.

Would be cool to trap it and keep it as a pet.

One of those TV Robots out in the wasteland. It's moving in one big circle. It keeps saying "you can have this lovely "bucket-O-nothing" for only 99.99.99!.

Kill him and you get a Metal Bucket.

A bunch of TV Robots standing around watching a drive in movie. I just think that that would be kind of funny since they're TVs.

While at the Hoover damn you come across a large chunck of rubble. On closer inspection of one side you see a skeleton of a man within the concrete.

Walk into a hotel room and notice an arm sticking out from under the mattress.

might not be random special encounters but little things I would like to see.

"Exterminator" You come across a man that offers you the ultimate combative challange for only $500. He leads you into a very big dark room. He then turns and walks out of the room and locks the door. You then hear him say are you ready? Then turns on the light from out side. The room is full of thosands of Radroachs. There is a table with a super sledge. The radroaches come after you. Once you have squashed them all the man lets you out.

He then says "thanks, it's hard to find a good exterminator theses days, most just cry for me to let them out."

Your walking in a empty house when you hear someone talking.

You hear the voice of the lone wanderers dad taking.

The dads voice is coming from a radio.

Not sure what he would say on the radio but a little scary.

You see a blue box over the horizon in the desert, as you approach it you see that it is a English police box. But when you get to close to it makes a strange noise and disappears leaving a motion sensor in its place


This.
I loved the Dr who encounter in fallout 1 and i whould be very happy to see the return of it. 10/10

Id also like to see an appearance of the "trashcan man" from Stephen Kings "The stand", has good bat[censored] crazy potential.

I don't know.....
Talking brahmins??
A super mutant cowboy??
Friendly raiders/bandits??
Uh....My ideas are crap..... I haven't think about a good one....
Maybe....
A super mutant thinks he's a normal person,and he greets the PC.
He then walks past you.. When you follow him,you realized that he is gong to buy things from a caravan
The guys in the caravan thought that this super mutant is hostile,because the caravan have suffered loss from super mutant,and they shot the poor guy :gun: :frog:
The super mutant didn't realize he is a super mutant,and get himself killed.... :yuck:

I really like all of your ideas.

As for me I would like:

There should be a quest that has you helping a rich chem addict.

He wants you to do something.

When your done with the quest you give him 10 chem & in return he give you a mini-nuke.

You can do this as much as you like.


A quest that has you killing NPCS & taking their meat & selling it to cannibals.

A couple of special encounter ideas.

1) Buttercup the horse ridden by an alien cowboy, complete with ten gallon hat, boots. Toting alien rifle while leading a pack of buttercups across the desert.

2) Meet a talking Deathclaw who only wants to be understood, and likes to sing ala Frank Sinatra. If the player appreciates his skills, he gains karma and tells the player he'll put a good word in with the boys back in Vegas.

3) Randomly come across robot dog, who hovers and says "Master?" ala K-9 from doctor who.

A dirty, beaten up, old chevy van pulls up next to you. A filthy man wearing a stained and ripped wife beater calls out the window and asks if you can help him find his puppy.


and if you accept he drugs u and takes you to a secret location only accesible through this random encounter. and you have to escape. and there is great loot

"Dead (in the) Water"
You find a large boat(doesn't have to be in water). Inside the boat are a whole lot of horribly deformed dead people(many of them also missing one or more limbs) and in the middle of it all a strange obelisk. A little further away from the corpses lies a dead dude in a mechanic suit and a welding mask from who you can loot a mining pick that does 100% more damage to limbs. Kind of an Easter egg.

Marty and Doc Brown from the Back to the Future standing next to the DeLorean that has broken down. You either have the option to to kill them and take their stuff or give them a power cell to fix it with a perk called " 1.21 Gigawatts!" that provides bonuses to your science skill.

These are ideas i've had in the past;

I'd love to see the public execution of Elder Lyons at the hands of the real BoS. maybe you could have a mission while you were at a BoS outpost when the gates open and a group of old FO3 outcasts come in with 'Old-man-Lyons' tied up and take him to the leader of the hardcoe BoS, who then execute him in some way....


Someone asked why this would happen before, to this......... i dont know, i just didnt really like him and obviously neither did the real BoS of they wouldnt have cut him off. Personally, i just think it would be funny to see.

A phantom glowing one, wearing old rotting cowboy clothes, riding a glowing radiated two headed brahmin.
It is only seen at night and constantly rides around the map, disappearing at intervals and reappearing.
the locals tell stories of such a phantom, but many who see, do not survive.......


And Finally

A mad hermit that wonders through the wasteland rubbing inanimate objects, hoping that a genie will appear from one to grant him his owed three wishes...


Just some ideas.....
