Welcome to Fallout town: What do you do now?

[The-Epicly-Named-Man]

Probably start farming. I doubt where I currently am would have been as affected by the war as the rest of the world, so it probably wouldn't be too hard to harvest enough to feed myself.

 

[lemby117]

well I'm 14 so technicaly a child so I'm going to anoy the hell you till I'm 17 so I will have a year for you all to forgive me before I can be killed.

 

[ComprehensiveGoo]

Probs stay within the confines of the town walls much of the time unless my "job" called for me to leave. I'd have something to do with the preservation of old world (history) be it books, knowledge or ruins and unearthing the old tech and other useful items to further our cause (archaeology). I tihnk I'd be ok out in the Wasteland for a couple of days since I used to be a member of Cadets and went on a fair few survival training weeks as well to the ranges a couple of times.

 

[fenrizz]

Build utopia.

Or atleast try to.
Collective farming at first, then when we have enough manpower (3 children minimum per couple would be the law) we'd start some industry, consumer goods and weapons.

Then I would conquer the wasteland with my army and bring utopia to everyone.

Sorry mate, you will have to go through me

No need for that friend.
Why not join our cause? Fight for a better future for all of the wasteland?

We do not wish to fight.
We bring peace and prosperity.

Pax Fenriza if you will.

I'd save the game, don't want to die! Anyway as fair as help goes I'm fairly adaptable, I know a bit of survival and could probably be trained in guns to help defend our fine home. But after a while I'd probably begin exploring and return some day, find the town destroyed and go find the fuckers that killed you all extracting revenge and dying in blaze of glory!

Sneak through the Wastes until I can find a town, then steal everything that isn't nailed down and sell it. Repeat until I have enough for a gun. Then see where I can find a silenced sniper rifle. Then sit in a tower and be loved by one and all for shooting passing wildlife and defending the town.

Well according to my story you did a piss poor job of defending the town son!

What? Dad, I was with you exploring the whole time! I've only got a shitty varmint rifle, but I hear you can buy all kinds of stuff up in North Vegas/Down in Rivet City, so I asked to make a detour! Honestly dad, you need to lay off the mentats. You can barely concentrate on one thing at a time unless you've had a handful. :/

[small][small]Rassa frassa![/small][/small] Get over it ya' jet fiend, your addiction nearly got us killed when we were hunting those damn Deathclaws, that and the fact we missed the Alpha at the end of the canyon.

But dad, it helps smooth everything over! I saved us both when I shot the Mother Deathclaw 5 times in the face before it saw us! At least I have enough money and sense to know when I'm addicted and go see the doctor. Humph.

Find the biggest baddest mofo with the most guns and marry him.

I'd be pretty useless myself but I'm pretty good with technology and mechanics. I have a History BA and a computer science BSc

Afternoon luv. *doffs cap* ;D
I'm not quite the baddest mofo, I love my mum and protect the town. But I'm a dab hand at shooting things in the face from a distance, shooting things in the torso from a distance, and cooking!

Sorry don't mind the boy, he's a sex pest!

And as for you boy you only have the money I gave you and I'm not addicted, they help! Think of me as Father Elijah just less tech' know how and less "I want to kill everyone" mentality! And you say you protect this town but last time I checked it was on fire!

Oh no I'm not! I'm a take to dinner and then marry the shit out of pest!

And the money I got while you were busy 'haggling' with that shopkeeper for some more mentats. I cleaned the whole town out while you were trying to form logical sentences!

 

[Da Orky Man]

Find work in a clinic. That should keep me busy.

Any medical or first aid training?

 

[Soluncreed]

I'd just try to scape enough together to make a living. I can't do anything special, but I guess I could also try to learn.

 

[Paularius]

I'd probably be the village idiot and do small jobs inifectivly for people around the town.

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

well since i'm a soon to be engineer, you bet your ass i'd be rebuilding the town as fast as i humanly could, new buildings, lots of huge walls to protect us, and of course (hopefully) robot defenses to keep fucking raiders and assholes the fuck out/away

...just gotta get that platinum chip

 

[Olorune]

Become a reputable arms dealer.

 

[DustyDrB]

Find work in a clinic. That should keep me busy.

Any medical or first aid training?

Yep. I'm studying to be a physicians assistant. Beyond that, I've been a lifeguard and majored in psychology and have worked in counseling during and after college. So I could act like a Wasteland David Hasselhoff and Dr Phil as well.

Sounds solid. So far, half the population is either a thief, a whore, or a shopkeeper.

Snip

Got another one.

 

[Bloedhoest]

I can operate and repair damn near anything, and I'm not too shabby with guns either, so I'll do just fine.

Guess I'll stick with you. Together we can repair everything.

And watch Top Gear all day.

Oh yeah go marrying random strangers, I thought I raised you better back in the Vault!

Oh well at least I don't go around stealing from our friends and have the common courtesy to wait till they're dead!

 

[debossman21]

im from NYC and good with cars, computers, and such
1. gather fellow survivors
2. haul ass and build makeshift walls
3. gain control of subway system
4. restore subway and reinforce walls with turrets. LOTS OF TURRETS!!!
5. chill like a boss in New Brooklyn

alternatively, knowing my horrible skills with a gun, booby trap a supermarket and stay in there

 

[Doomsday11]

Well if anyone in this town needs a builder,I'd be happy to oblige them I'm in decent shape(work out 4-5 times a week,play rugby when in season and used too be a long distance runner)and have worked in construction.Also not a bad shot with a firearm(Yes I've shot on multiple occasions.

 

[Mailman]

I'd probably stay in town. I'm a pretty good shot so I'd help form a town militia.

But I need somebody to keep my gun working! Hurhur, accidental double entendre. ^^

Pff. Since when was old Mrs. Frost our friend? We all knew we'd have killed each other and nicked their stuff years ago if we weren't so evenly matched and she didn't have a Laser RCW.
And yeah, you wait until the bullet you just shot hits them in the groin and then you take thir stuff. At least I only take what I need, leaving them alive with a good chance of survival!

 

[RuralGamer]

I get eaten by a Radscorpion.

I love Fallout but I would be useless in the actual world of it.

Same here; I would be absolutely useless in such a scenario. I don't have any real skills I could contribute so maybe I could help other people out, but on my own, I can contribute nada; as a student studying business management maybe I could be the mayor of this town...

 

[Robert Ewing]

Creating a small community will be tough. There is always an asshole within the community that will ruin everyone's chances at some point.

If you declare yourself leader, you had best hope that there's nobody else in the group that fancies him/herself a leader. Or there will be a power struggle, which is dangerous in this situation.

You also need to have strong followers, you can't have them all breaking down at any given moment. Otherwise it will jeopardize the team. The only course of action is to reason with her, but that's got a low success rate, or kill her. But if you kill her you will lose a significant amount of respect from your team. Mutiny is always a threat.

Don't get me wrong, the community solution is by far the best. Humanity's success is owed to it's groups. But I'm just saying. People have their own agenda's. And their own mind. It will be tough, maybe impossible for the vast majority of people. But it will be worth it if it's a success.
