I Busted 30 Myths In The Fallout Series

Just wanted to add that in FO4 you can move otherwise immovable objects with pretty much any corpse, it doesn't have to be a protectron specifically.

It doesn't even have to be a corpse. I once swept out a few skeletons with a screwdriver.

Not surviving in the pulowski preservation shelter is lore accurate.

The Pulowski Preservation Shelters don't protect against radiation either. They don't protect the player, and you can find Feral Ghouls in some too. I think it's supposed to imply they were scams meant to profit off panic.

[@Skullhawk13]

They 100% were scams but are occasionally useful post war. Enemies can’t get to you in them so it can give you breathing room to heal

[@hykeembobb7444]

Dame you company

[@spejic1]

Obviously they were not scamming the people who put their $5000 worth of coins in the machine when the big one was dropping because ain't no one collecting that. Were they getting paid by cities or private companies to have them placed all around? Like "Shop at Fallon's - we care enough about you to put a Pulowski Shelter outside our store"?

[@Robb1977]

I wonder who the fuck benefits from that though? You have to pay to get in them, implying the profit was only IF the world ends. Surely theyd be a municipal/personal scam. "why try to commission an artisanal vault when a couple of these on every corner will save you just as well? " If they put them up like payphones theyd be operating at a loss until the day where money is literally worthless and then theyd have a meaningless profit.

[@JohnCescato]

That's pretty much exact to the whole idea. I could see that being a real thing before the bombs dropped, with choices that were cheap and affordable next to vaults. Fool as many people as you can and make that profit off of every last corpse that chose to use one and it's a huge bonus to the profit made from the people who chose to be underground.

[@brandonhicks379]

There’s a way to get the weapons back from the casino! In gamorah you make your way into the location that has the safes and the cashier, and if you hug a wall and look above a safe at a certain angle you can access the inventory of items taken off you from a safe behind the wall, and if you go to a different spot on that same wall and do the same trick you can find the inventory they took off your companions! Saved my ass the last time I played, I found the video of someone doing it in some forum online after searching for like an hour and it was a godsend

[@JohnCescato]

Excellent, so you recovered every bit of the lost loot huh?

[@TheDanishGuyReviews]

Seeing the Fort Hagen myth busted annoys me a bit, because you could go straight to your Dad and Benny in 3 and New Vegas, no problem.

[@carterwright8504]

You can go straight to Nick Valentine in vault 114. Dogmeat sniffing the cigars is required for Kellog, though.

[@googleadministrator3994]

But that was clearly intended, because some developer at BGS spent the time to make a separate version of Fort Hagen's cells with extra assets to block the path.

[@carterwright8504]

@googleadministrator3994 IIRC the memory sequence of kellog in diamond city supposedly happens while the sole survivor is in vault 114, and after we rescue Nick, Kellog hears about our arrival and flees to Fort Hagen. It's incredibly goofy, but that's the way it's written

[@chaselandgraf1]

You can actually glitch your way to Kellogg early. I learned this from Nerbit, but using power armor and third person POV, you can either glitch into the blocked off elevator inside the building or you glitch through the roof access, which when opening the door allows you to get the BOS to arrive early. However, I recommend against this as it can break multiple quest lines if you’re not careful. I have broken both the BOS quest line and Unlikely Valentine doing this glitch.

The SRB terminal isn't naming "informants" as in spies that report on things for them, it just means undercover synths/coursers have gone up to them to ask if they've seen someone or something they're looking for and been pointed in the right direction. Does not mean Carla _knows_ she helped the Institute.

[@MRMIdAS2k]

This. She's not an informant, she just gives out info for cash, like everyone else in the game. Say, The institute are looking for an escaped synth, so they go up to Carla, with a description of the lost synth, spin a sob story about a lost family member, pay for info, done. It's not like she's a double agent or something.

FONV companions will get robbed in Gomorrah; your player character can wind up short too thus I drop all my gear in the 38 before heading over to the Gomorrah. Companions do not lose weapons but discard them without notice when they wear out rather than carry them onward. My two cents: 1. Raul will not use any energy weapons at all ever except for the alien blaster (he likes to do head shots with it and disintegrate enemies alot). 2. Raul seems to get way more accurate (weapons fire) and stops complaining about his eyesight when you give him a pair of glasses (he'll equip them). Neat vid btw.

[@tuomaselo4877]

6:15 Technically if you can glitch yourself through the chained door in the basement using the power armor wall clip Kellog does spawn and you can kill him, but it breaks the quest line somewhat.

[@bearman9033]

Maybe a bit late or has been covered, but the Ghomora glitch can actually be saved. If you sneak into the register/safe room, there is a safe behind the wall with companion non holdout items. You can abuse the third-person camera to retrieve your items.

[@csljr1]

RE 29: You *can* survive in the Constitution during it's flight - you die if you're on the deck, like you showed, but you can survive if you get below deck before it starts moving, and stay until the crash is completed (it makes it a lot easier to get back to the ship to get the captains quarters/the lieutenants hat Ironsides offers when you come back, since simply exiting via the top hatch leads to the location being discovered). I've done it myself, to save time getting back to the ship.

5:32 I want to say that the power armor phasing glitch does work, if you manage to fall to one of Kelloggs speech triggers he will spawn and you can fight him. So technically speaking, once you complete “when freedom calls” (I think thats right) you can just go to Fort Hagen and phase through a wall I think near the elevator, and land in a speech trigger area allowing you to go and fight him. I don’t recommend it but if you are speed running and you are confident, have at it.

[@arandomfatbloke3352]

15:40 They could exist in the same universe. Random shower thought theory I had a long time ago is that they're just in different galaxies, basically. The Bethesda universe could hold all their IP's, acquired or created, and just have them set so far apart in space that while they do exist in the same universe, they'll never meet. But *could* also explain easter eggs and similarities. Like I said though, random shower thought theory. I'm sure others have other theories, like different/parallel realities and multiverse shite.

I want to add something to myth 21, about Arcade Gannon specifically. There's a bug that only seems to happen with him and loosing weapons you give him to use. I know for a fact that this was not an issue caused by a mod as I used to play a lot of FNV without any mods and I remember finding this out the fun way. I gave Gannon an energy weapon to use with lots of ammo twice. First time it happened all of the ammo I gave him was used up, some time after that and me going back to good springs to empty is inventory after a loot run it was gone. Second time same setup but he did not go through all of the ammo I gave him and still after the loot run I went into his inventory and it was gone.

[@ZeroFighter]

My two cents on Fallout and Elder Scrolls being in the same universe; they are, and aren't at the same time. In Elder Scrolls, when you look up into the night sky, there's what appear to be several planets, moons, and other celestial bodies out in space. In ES lore, each body in the sky is its own, closed off universe / plane of existence. If a Nirnroot were to be hurled out of Nirn's orbit, and survive the journey through space, it's theoretically possible that one of those universes visible from Tamriel might be the Fallout universe, and the Nirnroot eventually arrived in the Commonwealth to be found by the Brotherhood of Steel.

It's more of an oversight than an addition. All NPCs will equip the strongest items in their inventory, so if you put power armor in the kids inventory they'll unequip what they're wearing and equip the PA.
