The subject of Aliens

Are you crazy? There were giant ants, manti, scorpions, geckos, flatworms, and jeffries lizards all in Fallout 1 & 2.

I thought that Omega Syndrome game had very fallouty aliens.

O and, wonnimingusses or whatever kinda sucked and were to hard.
 
I wonder how alliens would react to what happened to earth. Would they invade a weakened race? Would they despise us more than ever? Would they try and help us to get back on our feet? Would they use us as a example for all others species in the universe? Would they try to weaken us with a infiltration? Or would they just go around kidnapping and anal-probing "Those diverse mutant beings"?

Can you show us Omega Syndrome's alliens?

More likely, they would look down on us, call us a bunch of dumb asses, and laugh as they go to an intergalactic bar with eight breasted hermaphroditic hookers leaving us with our lowly three.
 
They'd see a planet with depleted natural resources and a fairly high background radiation level. Maybe you could 'mine'/recycle cities for the metals and such, but it's probably not worth bothering with.
 
I wll give you all my take on this.

yes there is a special encounter in Fallout 1 that involves aliens and a crashed UFO. Its a traditional style saucer shaped UFO half burried in the desert. There are 2 maybe 3 classical big headed greys around they craft, they are just skeletons though. It gives off the impression that the craft and the bodies have been there along time. You can get a weapon called alien blaster, its supposed to be the best in the game.

Also one of the things I have discovered, its not really about UFOs per se but it is involving Conspiracies and cattle mutilations. The 2 maybe linked in some way. When you get to gecko in Fallout 2 and you use the poseidon Reactor to contact the enclave the soldier on power armor says some thing about doing cattle or brahmin runs. This leads me to believe hes talking about the supposed goverments involvement in cattle mutilations. This also tells me even though the goverment is still doing its research. They may even still be doing research on alien technology and what not.


Also Fallout and Fallout 2 take place in the area of the US where alot of UFO sightings happen. Its also in the same part where roswell is. So I would say aliens and UFOs and thier cover ups would make for good material in Fallout 1 and 2. Not 3 though its set on the east coast. But this is just my take on the situation.
 
I think it's important to note that the world of Fallout is not 50's sci-fi, it's the real world, but it's as if 50's pop culture continued.
Not true. It's meant to be based on how people in 50s sci-fi imagined the future (of course, not on all elements thereof). But it's definitely not meant to be realistic.
 
As people have said, Fallout has a special encounter with what appear to be aliens, and I don't thing the game needs more than one, unless they start becoming a theme or something. Also, the wanamingos look different than other FEV mutated creatures because they were created by the government for a purpose, whereas most FEV mutants were just tossed into the Vats to see what happened. That also explains why they were much more difficult than standard enemies, because the government would have tried to make their armor plating as resistant to normal and energy weapons as possible.

And after getting shitfaced they would go like....Wanna have some fun and go around kidnapping and anal-probing "Those diverse mutant beings"?...But being to drunk they crash in the middle of the radiated wasteland were the V13 guy stumbless upon them. The property of area 51, thats just a popular bumpersticker between the alien folk

There should be a big-headed dead "Gray" in the Glow, behind one of the broken glass specimen cylinders. Then again, I haven't looked in a while.
 
Aliens?

Could it be that the high tech weoponry in the game came from aliens. In one of the dialouges in fallout 2 you can pretend to be a alien leader when talking to richardson, the Enclave was planning of fleeing earth, and in fallout 3 you have mothership zeta. So is thier an Alien conncetion to the Enclave, the hightech weoponry, and the fallout franchize at large?
 
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

THE APOCALYPSE HAS COME EARLY!!!!!

Erghm, I highly doubt it, come on, in FO1 and FO2, aliens were used as "wacky" feature. Fallout 3 just took it a bit far. Fair enough the two normal random encounters were just fine, but the entire DLC was uncalled for and just a clear l00t-fest.

You pretend to be the Hubologist's God, Lord Quetzel, and Richardson chuckles along nervously thinking that he's in the presence of a lunatic before - IIRC - calling a bunch of Enclave Troopers into the room to burn your ass.

As for the connection, I think that it's suggested in Mothership Zeta that the Enclave (well now REPCONN I guess) used recovered alien technology to make those Fisher Price plasma toys in Fallout 3.
 
Anyone seriously wanting Aliens as a crucial part in the Fallout world needs to ask himself the question if this is really the right franchise for them (or just call a doctor). It's a problem of people following "the rule of cool" and shitting on consistent settings left and right.
 
I think aliens should`t ever be the focus of a Fallout game or DLC, but some hints, eerie-appearance, the odd old-world conspiracy link found in some secret terminal and the rare easter-egg are fine.
