Plastic Bags! i think that plastic bags should be in fallout 3 because they dont biodegrade and also they would be worth alot of money in the wastelands just think about it they can be used to shelter under and to carry stuff in and to patch up things with... I know yes it wouldn't realy effect your game other than to make you money but i was just thinking about adding more things that would exsitst to the game which would add even more realism to the game

It's a big stretch, given that plastic bags weren't used much in the time from the setting in which Fallout parallels, that of how the future would be seen from a 40's-50's science-fiction pulp. Paper was still much more widely used in that time.

Plastic decomposes in 500 years. So does metal. Rubber never decomposes. So what year is this game, 2200? 2300? Yeah I think any plastic stuff is pretty much gone or almost gone or too inferior to use. Although it makes sense that plastic technology would be invented by now. There's already stuff like laser pistols that were INVENTED by the brotherhood of steel. Even I, a regular person, have the knowledge of how to make plastic with proper materials, so I'm sure it's been discovered by now. And aren't written records of technology stored in vaults or something? The idea that all technology was lost is very far fetched. It must be restored someday.
