VaultPi Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 simular to the sierra madre but a luxury apartment building where the machines have been programmed to protect and maintain the facility, and are still doing it, raiders come and if not turned into goo on sight, wind up joining the tower's Robo-brain security force. oh and theres a store house of food, made by the tower's recycling plant made from wasteland inhabitants.... do we even want to know what happened to the people living in those luxuury apartments?

thrill606 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 This sounds pretty awesome. It would probably take a lot of work though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenknightfury Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) I'd like to see this. The mountain areas near Vegas are the kind of place one would find resort communities with something like that..perhaps placing it in a worldspace accessed through a tunnel in the mountains near Jacobstown? I see it as a snow-covered little skiing resort village with a large luxury hotel, perhaps a small casino in the lobby area. Give it a ski lodge connected to it and some shops and such around it. A very fun touch would be some of those that arrived for the purpose of looting had stumbled across guest passes and so were put in the room of the guest who's pass they acquired but unable to leave because the system was set to not allow the guest to leave until they payed their bill (and with 200 plus years staying there it is one heck of a bill) with them having to give you what help they can in finding and reprogramming the mainframe to think they have free passes in perpetuity (yourself included of course), or alternately to disable/destroy the mainframe so that the place will go dark for good.

VaultPi Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 I like your logic, since my inspiration was partailly taken from Dr.Who, and partially taken from an old horror movie I saw once, I like the idea of killing it with beurocracy...

Maybe it could be called Hotel New Vegas, Hotel Nevada, or Hotel Mojave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the Eagles song "Hotel California". Maybe it could be called Hotel New Vegas, Hotel Nevada, or Hotel Mojave. Well definitly not Hotel New Vegus as it's original name lol though Hotel Nevada isn't too bad. At least as the name of the mod or something the trapped people call it if it has some pompous name.

thrill606 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 The hotel should have a shining or tower of terror look to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenknightfury Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Well with the idea of being a mountain resort hotel that i tossed out there...the Shining hotel would be an excellent guide for it's design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
