name some interesting fallout facts/history that connects to the Fallout 3 world. I will start

When Myron first encountered the Mordinos, they were farming peyote cacti and trying to sell it to tourists as the "Reno Experience". Unfortunately peyote trips are too long, and profit is generated by fast turn around and a high addiction rate. Furthermore the climate was far too ravaged and irradiated to grow most vegetable matter but the hardiest of plants, so Myron began delving in growing mushrooms. Hallucinogens have low overhead and thrive in plentiful brahmin dung. From there Myron began experimenting with derivatives of lysergic acid diethylamide and psilocybin and THC the active substance in marijuana (unknown to still grow). However the Mordinos still desired something a little harder and more addictive that could get them Redding. The solution to the problem came from the Brahmin fertilizer itself. protein extract was obtained and then corrupted. By placing the augmented Brahmin dung in large vats they could gather the potent drug they were searching for. (from fallout wiki)

yup, there you have it. Whenever you huff up some Jet in FO 3, take delight in the fact that you are taking in "enhanced" Brahmin crap vapors

The ending to the "Trouble on the Homefront" quest was a reference to something is the past Fallout games.

i heard there was some reference to diet nuka cola in fallout 2 which was interesting , talking deathclaw idk , i wish i could play the older games but cd driver broken

Never palyed the First and Second ones, but the Enclave is the same

Very good :clap:


Well Harold appeared in the three main games, though I don't really like how he appeared in Fallout 3.

the quest title " Who dare Wins " was the SAS motto after they neutralized the iranian terrorists who held hostages in the iranian embassy in the UK during the 1970's

i would have loved if instead of getting the T-51B armor from that fort that you could get the enclave armor from the original fallouts

The old Enclave helmet looked awesome....

One of the people killed by the ants in Greyditch was originally an Enclave soldier, and it's mentioned on his computer that he was originally from the Navarro base, one of the locations in Fallout 2.

President Eden mentions that he's studied all the presidents of the US, from "Washington to Richardson." Richardson was the Enclave president in Fallout 2.

elaborate for us




huh, the greyditch one is interesting, didnt know that. The president eden thing, woah, you are right, i just realized it.

got more?

Fallout 1 main quest spoiler :



- Junktown in "Tales of Junktown" books stands for the town of the same name in Fallout 1.

I sort of like the backwards nature of the thread's title, heh.

I'd say it was more than a reference, it was the bargain-bin equivalent

The says he was originally a soldier who got knocked out at a base called Mariposa and a small tree started to grow on top of his head (I've heard you can actually meet him in FO1 and 2) and he travelled here until he fell asleep and ...

He's a recurring character in all three. First in Fallout he recounts quite a bit of the Master's history, in the second he's set up as kind of the mayor of a Ghoul community.
(the tree gets bigger each game).

The tree started growing only after Fallout 1's events.

He also was not a soldier. He was a merchant.

Yep... it gets bigger each game.

No. Because he got the tree seed 20 something years after F1
