The world was destroyed by Nuclear war.

I would wander the waste, wondering how many of these identical forums on the escapist I am missing....
OMG that was the best response possible for this question.Wildrow12 said:
Could I be one of the extras, not the guys with mohawks but one of the losers they ruthless kill for his food and then you come along and kill the all a minute later even though with you ultra-powerful martial arts skills you could have easily killed them before they could have even put a scratch on me?
Seeing as 'The World was destroyed by Nuclear War,' I'd just look at the floor in amazement that I was infact, still situated on the planet. Then touch myself, over and over again.
I wish I knew a little more about the specifics of the war in question. Who fought it, and what weapons and targeting strategies they used, would have major effects on the distribution of fallout, the extent to which cities and infrastructure are destroyed.
OP just says the world is a barren wasteland, which implies an incredibly extensive apocalypse.
I suppose I'd move to Australia, since that's where all the cool post-apocalyptic action is.

I honestly wish that Intelligence worked that way in RPG games.
That's what makes it special in the first place!xxhazyshadowsxx said:
...the radiation, I mean.
Weebles wobble but they don't fall down...except in your case, right?Cogito said:
Y'know what I did? (after several failed attempts to play the hero) I just left them to rot...all of them.crazyhaircut94 said:
"No!! Why did we burn the guns?!"Conveant0 said:
And a Twilight Zone reference too! Damn, y'all thought of everything for this thread...Pariah87 said:
Anywho, what would I do?
Well, if I'm still in Alaska...I'd be fending of the insane and desperate Lower Forty-Eighters who fled up here wanting to escape the radiation...
Find the nearest settlement and wait for help. Help not coming? Start exploring and establishing contact with other settlements, and help out with rebuilding.
Beyond that I'd just live my life under newer, albeit bleaker circumstances, until starvation or radiation took me.

The Fallout games have made it seem like the entire world would be done for. This is utter bunk.
For one thing, in moderate nuclear exchanges the planet's surface would be liveable within 2 weeks. In the event of a MAD, it might be a bit longer, but not much. Once you get to the surface, filter the radioactive particles out of some nearby water, (Again, unlike in Fallout, all you're going to need is a simple charcoal filter like a Brita.) add about 1 teaspoon of chlorine bleach to every 10 gallons, grab some tinned food from an old grocery store, and you're basically good to go.
Seriously. That's all you'd need to worry about for some time.

First thing is you'd have to find is a source of fresh water, and food, and shelter from weather, and fallout near said water source. And weapons for hunting, and self defense. If you can last more than a month, radiation levels should go down to livable levels, as the most unstable isotopes decay. Going out still might cut your life expectancy by 10 years, but you won't have to worry about immediate radiation poisoning. After 5-10 years it might even be safe enough to reproduce without birth defects. At which point you'd have to find people and form a tribe. Welcome to 10th Century BC.

As for myself: Realize that, well I'm fucked, find the nearest gun and take care of business.
