How the hell did the White House remain as a ruin is beyond me,.
So being a huge crater is intact now?
There's something still standing and a mainteneance (or whatever it is) tunnel that isn't collapsed and immediately outside the WH perimeter there's no damage at all. If a nuke hit the building right on the head there should be absolutely nothing left of it, I think.
True but a lot of things in Fallout fork differently
Like if there was really an Atomic war there wouldn't be any people left afterwords
Wrong. Check Hiroshima and Nagasaki. There were people left and there were buildings left...well not so much left on either side. That's one bomb in one place each.
And I'm talking about bombs from the 50' because it's that kind of a setting. At least it looks like it and I'm not much of a scientist but the Internet is free. Anyway, whatever kind of atomic bomb was it, if 2 or more fell on the White House there would be HUGE desert, a putrid waste. Unless it's more intact than the Glow which was underground.
Metro 2033 doesn't have that kind of a problem because the Russians really do have over 400 bunkers beneath the ground. They built it for cold war.
Back to Fallout. USA built bunkers all over the country, they did not stack themselves in DC and wait for Armageddon to happen. Else there would never be any kind of a Vault.
But I don't think even Beth knew what to make in FO3 so they went by the hunch, and then we got nuclear cars among other shits.
If it's so fucking hard to look at Mad Max movie even once why make the game at all? I liked FO3 at first but then I realized it was all pointless, nothing is in that cave or that corner that I haven't seen, DC metro was a bull and a chore, I got 2 towns and a hell of a lot boring desert. What happened to the atmosphere?
Even Harlod was passable! WTF!
In FNV every place has its own interaction, its connection to the general. Yeah it looks like New Reno outskirts but so what? Was Reno ever that bad? It's still way better than what FO3 has to offer, there is so much more in it and it's not only the NPCs. Which would you prefer anyway, Megaton to New Vegas?
On the other hand, yeah, FO3 had more "waste" in its wasteland.
