LOL 1000x! And then become Mutant snacks. Although, you'd probably end up with pieces of you inside the bellies of the wicked shipping ghouls before anything else. Could you imagine waking up to see a ghoul biting your toes off...eeeek!

Like the farmers daughter do you,lol.

Bury my family. Start planting. If I could perhaps at the grave cite. Look for a rifle. Look for game. So hunt. Set up fortifications. And eventually start scouting about. overwhelming forces come, that I could not defend against, I would evade.

Make charcoal so I could make a good Knife/spear

Dig a well, so I could have clean water.

You know, the same thing that I would do if a situation where to happen in real life.

Yea, it is nice to have these skills, even in this day and age as we are atm...

To be honest, I still remember Kellogg saying he thought for sure the SS won`t make it outside the vault.


If it was real situation... I don`t think there is any chance for sole survivor to survive our very first 2-3 raider meeting.

..as these experienced raiders won`t take more than 2 seconds to place a bullet between SS eyes... while SS friendly approach them to ask what`s going on... haha



Probably best chance is of survival is like what others say..

Go to farm.. get a job... and hope no Super Mutant or Raider come to raid tonight. lol

That first radroach..
OH [censored], back to the cryochamber.

So seriously...how long until you would think of grabbing a broom and disposing of those pests?

When he realizes that the Chamber is not Roach proof. lol

The odds are that I wouldn't be able to survive long in the wasteland. The roaches are no issue, they wouldn't be able to bite too far into me even if I didn't stomp on them.


The problem lies more with weapons. I couldn't bring myself to use any pipe weapons. The fear of it exploding in my hand would be too much. Seeing as how 10mm ammo isn't that common I'd struggle to be able to defend myself against bigger threats. Things like hunting rifles and combat rifles I wouldn't have that issue with fortunately.


I'd try to fortify Sanctuary as much as possible. I'd hide the entrance to the basemant of that one house using brush and such after modifying the handles so someone couldn't just stick a piece of steel in there to trap me. Also keeping a small explosive down there in case I need it to escape.


When it comes to the situation in Concord I would help. Surviving alone is difficult, I'd have to sleep some time after all. I'm a fairly decent shot so it would be possible that if I took things slow I could make my way to Preston. I can neither pick a lock or hack so I'll just cut my way past the door to get the fusion core. With the minigun and power armor the raiders would be easy to dispatch. The deathclaw however...


Well the one idea I have about the deathclaw is running to the second floor and hoping the weight of the power armor crashing down on top of it would be enough to cripple it.


If by some fluke things go as planned and I manage to rescue the Minutemen and live I'd stick with them. Hopefully being able to convince Sturges to fix and upgrade my power armor.

Right? You just leave her there on display.

I think her pod is open even, so in my game that it's been around 8 months she's probably well rotting away.

I think I would just join the gunners, they seem to being doing just fine. After all it's a dog eat dog world...

i'd stumble out cursing and swearing, not seeing a thing because those cryo a*holes didn't bother putting my glasses in my pocket when they froze me up, and get killed by a bloodbug hatchling when i try to cross the creek to sanctuary.

from a "where to go to be doing fine" perspective, i think i'd end up in goodneighbour and try to plant a couple trees in that rubble pile

I'd end up becoming a raider of sorts, or I'd shoot myself before leaving the vault

If I could get the cryochamber working again..and time were cyclical. I'd freeze myself, wait for time to loop around. Then jump out and kill Kellogg before he shoots my hot wife.

After pondering on this some more, I've come to the conclusion that I would inevitably trod on a frag mine. Game over.

that's a leaky plan. after the loop, you'd have to go for millenia until the invention of electricity. you'd be thawed out before even cyano bacteria took over

1. Get out of the Vault.

2. Take a quick look around.

3. Say "Screw this! I am going back to sleep."

4. Wake up in another 200 years.

I'd go back to sleep and wait for the DLC.

If it were real. Id probably go to sanctuary, plant some food and slowly go crazy.

Approaching my wife and sing "Ding dong the witch is dead, which old witch, the wicked witch".

Seeing as how my body is not made out of diamond and can die with a bullet to the head, I probably am just gonna scavenge things and bring it back to the vault while avoiding raiders, it could be locked to prevent people from entering, probably bartering things from traders and grow crops inside the vault. If I can find or steal a power armor, I could venture further into Diamond City to at least find ways to earn some caps and sell thing I scavenge for more caps.

i would roll on with my 10milli and pretty much play the game like i play the game.


I'm ready and willing to take on the apocalypse, surviving by any means necessary. without killing kids, of course.

(thank you beth for not making us do that, and never making us do that.)



i have minimal supplies and my 3 kids will get a wake-up call from their pampered existence.

and don't get me wrong here, my kids are no-where near spoiled. but they get what i can give them. they're all avid, hardcoe gamers and i know that they'll be able to make it with me. you fathers feel me.


when/if the time comes, (cuz let's face it, they've been preachin about the end of times since the beginning of time!), i would approach things a bit differently. there is no save, right?

i would stealth all the time, set traps for outrageous foes like a deathclaw or enraged menopausal nurturing rad scorpion mother-of-three-(and eat her and her young while scavenging her nutritious briast milk).


would NOT (you heard me), NOT build a settlement to attract more people. the more people you have, the more people you either,

(@)have to take care of

(2)have to watch so they don't stab you in the back and kill you and your peeps, then take all your sh!t

(?)do unspeakable things to you, after you've taken care of them, then, kill you and take all your junk.



personally, I'm in it for myself and the one's i love and trust. everyone else better stay away from us.


my first priority, in reality, would be to find my boy and make them pay. if i had to blow up the world again, so be it. as long as i held my son in my arms before it was gone, it would all be worth it.



fathers feel me (hopefully), you's without kids; wouldn't you want your dad to feel like that?

i always wanted a dad like that.

Well I am not married (thats right ladies you could have a wonderful chance to wake up next to me feeling regret, and wondering wow was that it!!) So I would have no idea who Kellog shot.

Being well reasonably fit and rational Rad roaches and indeed feral hounds not that much of a threat, But after a quick visit to sanctuary and meeting bloat flies, and realizing Man A walk to concord no that is not going to happen, I would surely perish.

then I would indeed head back into the vault, clean water check, all the TV dinners I can eat sorta check, video game check set for life...

Never fired a gun, lived a comfortable first world existence my entire life, have no wilderness survival skills, the only thing going for me is my knowledge of how very dangerous every single thing in the Falloutverse is.

It's a choice between death by dehydration/starvation or getting killed by some really low level mutant thing. Can't really say which way id choose. I don't do that well in real life to begin with, and living in a western country in real life doesn't really prepare you for anything close to the Falloutverse.

If I was born and raised in the Falloutverse though I might be able to prepare. Maybe. Even if I do go full Randall Clark and survive to a ripe old age with knowledge of the wastes I still think i'd take standing in the town square on that day in October.

"Last thing I remember I was sitting in my computer room, reading some posts on a game forum."

First, investigate my surroundings. Seeing the corpsicles in the other pods would tell me a lot. Encountering radroaches for the first time would freak me out, but once I figured them out, I'd realize "Kill on sight" and move on.

Must. Get. Weapons. Must get better weapons. Must find ammo for weapons.

Freak out again upon finding first skeleton. How long to go from living, breathing body to just bones? That long? Consider changing name to Rip Van Winkle.

Check for edible groceries. Insufficient. MUST leave this place to find food.

What the hell is a "Pip-Boy"? Still functional; probably be useful. Take it, play with it to figure out how it works. Wonder if it is durable enough to act as a left forearm bracer if need be.

Note to self: Be VERY stingy with pistol ammo until I accumulate LOTS of ammo. Gun without ammo is about as useful as a rock or club.

Can NOT stay in here. Probably safe to use as a base of operations -- provided there aren't anymore radroaches that will try to eat my face while I'm sleeping. Note to self: Find some really big Roach Motels.

Exit. Figure out controls. Hoping there are similar controls at other end so I can come back in if need be.

Commit. "Going up." Who designed this thing? No cage, just platform and shaft walls? What an idiot; certainly doesn't understand people.

Daylight. "Oh, [expletive deleted]."

Item: Why would there still be so many skeletons lying around? 1) No one to tidy up? Or 2) whatever people that remain don't care about cleaning up. Mildly reassured because skeletons don't look gnawed on. Either food plentiful and/or very few predators.

I went over the mountain, I went over the mountain,

To see what I could see. To see what I might see.

"Forward, hooooo!"

Honestly? I would climb right back into my cryogenic pod and embrace death via hypoxia. It certainly beats death by Ghouls & or Supermutants.
