Lets try silly or funny mod ideas and requests here

simplywayne90 · November 22, 2010

Alright, now then, many of you have already downloaded enough guns and armor to supply the entire NCR, how about something better than guns and armor? After fallout is first an RPG, although mods can remove those if you want but whats the point of a high powered weapon if all you kill is the same damn thing repeated, that gets old fast.

Anyways,

To those of you who loved the funny jokes and silly wasteland encounters of the originals, or just the pop culture easter eggs of some things in fallout, post you ideas for adding more fun and humor to the game here.

Or just some random ideas would be great

I'm thinking more encounters, easter eggs, and wasteland idiocy is needed for New Vegas,

"Spoiler-ish"

-

Somethings like the bridge of death, or exploding sucide brahmin (Fo1/Fo2) or how about something like Indianna Jones in the fridge in what more realistically happened(He's a blackened skeleton thats what)

you posted this thread mere moments after i posted my easter egg house idea, should i copy it to here as well since it seems like it fits?

You mean running into the doctor and the TARDIS? then yeah go ahead and put it here, that since doctor who is a lot like fallout in the fact that a lot of the things that happen in that show are a bit crazy too, like in fallout your character cooks like turpentine and drinks it to quench his thrist, and the doctor uses sugar and a slap to cure poison. so yeah in short repost it here!

One of the things sorely missing are clucking chickens at farms, walking around and pecking at stuff. Slightly mutated, a little larger than regular chickens, with tiny T-Rex sort of arms in the front, instead of wings. And of course, where theres chickens, there be eggs.

How about a wax museum in Primm? There's scope for all sorts of witticisms there, and the 'NPCs' don't have to be mobile!

Okay I tried to see if it was against the rules and couldn't find any against this, so I'm posting links to other enjoyable or potentially silly/funny mod threads HERE ON NEXUS (For you moderators reading =]) Since they've been buried in requests for "that gun from that Copyrighted Game that could never be on nexus requests" anyways here goes nothing.

Pirates! In the Mojave!

My personal ideas from earlier threads,

Stephen Colbert As The Mysterious Stranger

Firefly and Serenity in the Mojave?

More Sugestions, Less Requests! Please Look

Dunwich The Sequel Anyone?

Indiana Jones outfit mod (maybe add to the Easter egg)

Get your Groovatron On

I wanna be....pimp-tastic?

The Armor of gods, Duct Tape!

My mind may be deceiving me, but wasn't there a random encounter in FO2 where you happened across a Tardis, but it disappears before you can reach it? Didn't it leave a motion detector, too?

###Edit###

Or the Godzilla footprint. It had a dead guy all squished flat in it, and he had a stealth boy.

Those would both be pretty cool...

Theres still quite a few more, although I have to rush to work so I'll post links to those threads later.

Good afternoon everyone. I'll start this off stating that i have zero mod talent and/or knowledge. I'm just really hoping that someone who does may pick up this idea and run with it. Just imagine, you're trudging through the Mojave following the goals and events of the mortal coil. When suddenly the oddest sound to grace the wastes since the acoustics of atomic warfare ripped through the air, begins howling, screeching, and grinding. Quiet at first but increasing in volume with proximity. Further investigation leads the courier to find a strange, upright blue box.

Now, i would love to just live in the TARDIS, but I do have an idea or two of how to tie it in.

possible activation quest:

Upon finding the strange blue monolith, the courier approaches to inspect, but the strange object appears to disappear momentarily each time it is approached. A high science skill reveals the knowledge that the object does not seem to be anchored in our reality.

A high repair skill along with at least a moderately high survival skill(and maybe a note or message left by person(s) unknown), will reveal to the courier the mechanical and biological components required to construct a device to tether the mysterious box with our reality. This could possibly be conveyed through the medium of an abandoned tablet of psychic paper.

side notes and ideas:

when first finding it, geckos surrounding it hitting it with bones, would be funny.

perhaps a companion inside modeled after one of the various Dr.'s companions.

should probably be a mid to late game home, with lots of interior space (lots and lots), and well supplied. (with barebones option available)

The random room. in true spirit of the tardis, a room that changes every time you enter it. probably don't wanna keep anything in it.

Once again, I don't even know if all or any of these things are even possible. They are just ideas that I am hoping someone will pick up. Thank you all again for taking the time to read my thoughts and musings. And thank you in advance if you decide this is something you can do.

Have an excellent day,

-Q
