Vault Ideas? : Fallout Series Discussion

» Fri May 13, 2011 10:57 pm

So most vaults were experiments. Now, if you were in the position to create a sociological/psychological experiment for a vault, what would your ideas be? Mine would be a vault without a sense of time or date. How would they organize events? Anyways, if you have any ideas, post 'em here.

Two things:

One,http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1095939-devise-your-own-vault-experiment/page__st__180

Two.

Vault XX

The Experiment: To see how humans would cope without time.

Size: A normal sized vault with enough space for 3000 inhabitants.

Equipment: All normal fixtures, but no timekeeping devices, or light switches.

Organisation: All people entering the vault will place any diaries, watches or clocks that they have into an incinerator. Light's kept on at all times to confuse body clocks.

Length of experiment: Vault to be sealed for 300 years. However if the vault is opened one or more years before or after 300 years it will be filled with sarin gas.

Expected Outcome: Residents will do their damnedest to keep track of time but unless they etch markings into the wall every 24 hours when a 'day' passes for 300 years, they will die. Also some will go mad by counting in their heads constantly. At the very best of times it will be a very dull existence

I've already done that vault.

It's funny that I should be correcting somebody for doing the same mistake I did in the past when I first made a topic..

Vault 43

The Experiment: To see how humans would cope if the only entertainment was hunting.

Size: A Large sized vault (one of the top 3) with enough space for 7000 inhabitants and a safari hunting ground that held 9000 animals and a farm land to grow food.

Equipment: Hunting rifles ,Shot Guns, genetically altered blood hounds (had the ability to live 50 years and could smell for 900 miles) and 9000 pounds of dried food.

Organisation: All people entering the vault will be given there own Blood hound if they dont already have a dog and a hunting rifle if they don't already have a gun (only 3 of which had no gun)

Length of experiment: Vault to be sealed for 100 years. If the vault opened later or before this time nothing would happen except the blood hounds would howl for 1 hour .

Expected Outcome: 80% Chance of happening: They will die of boredom. 20% chance: they will band to gather and provide there own form of entertainment and as well work to keep the animals alive so there future generations can hunt them.

vault 67/size-large can support up to 5000 inhabitants/experiment-50percent of occupants are confirmed drug addicts and other 50percent are confirmed alcoholics. drug addicts have all the alcohol and all the alcoholics have the drugs. 20% chance the alcoholics give druggys the drugs and they give the alcohol to the alcoholics. 40%chance they fight over drugs and alcohol thus killing most ever one 20% chance overseer trys to take both drugs and alcohol thus getting him killed. 20% chance of alcoholics turning in to drug addicts and drug addicts turning in to alcoholics.0% chance of no one giveing a F*** the door can be opened at any time
