Sunset Sarsaparilla's Wild Wild West World

Another one I posted in the wrong forum;

 

Sunset Sarsaparilla's Wild Wild West World.

 

Another idea based partly on westworld (never saw it, but liked the premises) and partly on the shows we have here at the local toruist attractions (as well as an extension of the YMCA idea), would involve a amusement park created by Sunset Sarsaparilla. Sunset Sarsaparilla's Wild Wild West World would feature protectrons retextured much like the nuka-cola ones to Sunset Sarsaparilla colors and be wearing hats & boots like Primm Slim. There would be robo vendor merchants selling items unavailable in most parts of the wasteland, cotton candy, 100 year old caramel apples, teddy bears etc. There would be games of chance (darts, coin tosses) etc that could earn flashy trinkets that tribals or other wastelands might pay good caps for. The roller coaster from bison steves would be there. For the more advanced, mod savy crowd, instructions on how to use the point lookout carnival resources could be included. They add their own bsa.

 

There would be androids (human appearing) performing live west shows like shootouts and other theatrics as well as stunts like cowboy shooting etc. This could make for some powerful opponents (androids with the cowboy perk and brushguns could pump out some damage).

 

Unfortunately the bad news is during the war some bits were flipped by emp bursts and the parks mainframs main logic programs went a little funny. The mainframe also has an organic component (a brain) similar to the robobrains and it is now very old. As time has gone on it's behavior has gotten worse and worse, more erratic and confused. To complicate matters the owner of the park was a huge gun buff and collected tons of western area antique weapons, ammo etc. Being particularly fearful of a Chinese invasion he also set up the park to be self sustaining (it has it's own reactor) and purchased security protocols for all the bots to defend the park. Giving the main frame access to a great deal of resources.

 

The locals (probably tribals) stay well away from the park, since the android cowboy trick shooters can place a slug in their head at ridiculous ranges. Unfortunately for the player they don't have the option to avoid the park (not sure if it's a rescue mission or some other plot hook).

 

Treasure could include some high powered weapons like brush guns, heavy revolvers (esp if the reload mod is used), special limited edition Sunset Sarsaparilla's collectibles, etc.

 

The mod itself although combat heavy wouldn't be a simple run and gun mod. Due to the main frame's dementia it would have some of the fallout humor and general weirdness. There would be many small encouters with scripted events and a branching storyline (perhaps you'd rather help repair the mainframe then destroy it, perhaps it decides it needs a fresh highly intelligent brain to function, yours ).

 

Any interests? Worth making? Suggestions?

Just a question, Where do you want the park to be? in the wast or a new place like Dead money? ( I have tried placing like new buildings and stuff in the wast and it's really hard not to chance any NavMesh or Xmarkers ) so what i would like is to have it in "New Place" :)

Hi kagstrom2100. It would be best if it was seperated from the wasteland. It would tie in with the storyline better. I'd like if possible for the surrounding area to be inhabited by tribals. If possible descendent's of the customers several generations back, that where in the park when the bombs began to fall. The nearby bombs triggering a seismic event that trapped them in the valley. In essence they have become so isolated that they have reverted to superstition and the park has become a thing to worship and fear as they have regressed.

 

But the park does keep the tribe going because over the years it needs to replenish it's organic processor by taking the smartest of the tribals. Occasionally it opens it's gates for all the tribals to come in, maybe an annual ritual. They are graced with gifts of trinkets, food etc. One of the plot hooks is that this time it's taken a child/young adult of exceptional ability, a hero, virtually this tribes equivalent of the lone wanderer. It's his/her destiny to free his/her people, but not alone, with teh couriers help.

 

But nothing is set in stone, just a preliminary idea/plot line.
