    • @damonedrington3453
      @damonedrington3453 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

      Even though the Vault Tec one is the dumbest one possible. The company that made money by selling seats in Vaults and contracts with the US Government willingly chose to end the world and thus kill its ability to make money? And yeah, you wouldn't have seen a plane drop the bomb. The plane would've been a speck in the sky at 42,000 feet. As for a missile, by the time the Sole Survivor would've been able to see anything, it would've been a mere warhead falling from the sky with no smoke trail or anything to indicate its location.

      @@randomlyentertaining8287it’s actually the opposite of what you claim. Vault Tec makes their sales by selling vault positions yes, but the U.S and China were working on a peace agreement, which would have put Vault Tec out of buisness because the end of the world would no longer be a fear. Vault Tec had to make sure the peace agreements didn’t workout because their enitre company relies on “selling the end of the world.”
      Despite this fact, I don’t believe Vault Tec launched the first bomb, I believe they planned on it but for a later date. In the Fallout show they make it clear that Vault Tec planned to launch the first bomb, but they don’t actually confirm it, they only confirm that they planned on it

Therefore, given how his wife also changed her goals, it's clear that Vault TEC failed.

    15:00 ish? Regarding Vaulttech theory. Late to the party but remember that the Vaults were meant as experiments. The experiments CANNOT be carried out unless the people enter the vaults. It is possible that the intent was to launch one nuke to scare people into the faults. Presumably that nuke detonates near Vault 14, since that vault requires the area to be irradiated. But Vault 0 wasn't ready yet, indicating they didn't intend that command and control vault to be sealed. The plan then would be 1) launch single nuke 2) scare people into vaults 3) seal vaults 4) conduct experiments on inhabitants using 5) govt and media contacts to cover up this fact and claim vaults cannot be unsealed now (many can't). We know that the government was complicit in the experiments planned for the vaults, since the Enclave knows what they are.
    But with tensions too high, the counter-nukes were launched, and they did as best they could.

      The Enclave didn't know every vault's experiment, also in that case control vaults wouldn't be necessary because there is already a still functional (if not paranoid and sh*t scared) society outside. Vault 101 would be redundant too as all vaults would be doing it's experiment and so would Vault 88 (from the Vault workshop DLC in fo4), which was supposed to receive more dwellers after the initial batch unless of course it was impossible. Good idea though.

      @AugustoXRock 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you look at the Mutually Assured Destruction theory, it explains that a scenario in which nuclear destruction is halted only because it is a lose-lose scenario for both combating forces.
      According to the theory, all bets are off if one side would destabilize the situation by the presence of missile defense or by, get this: *by the construction of shelters in a massive scale*. This would make the US less fearful of a so called "second-strike" by China, which is basically retaliation when the attacker fires their nuclear arsenal.
      Knowing that China had very capable infiltration operatives, and judging by how ridiculously the vaults were marketed to the public, China would easily catch win of this and potentially fire their weapons.
      But the more likely scenario is that China would build their own vaults to get the situation squared-out, just like the USSR and the US did in the cold war to even out the odds of MAD destabilizing, I can even back this up because since the reality of vaults popping up in the US wouldn't take long to leak to China, they waited several years to take action. So my guess is that that US, knowing they would survive a second-strike from China, launched their missiles to end the war for good and play the long game for the remaining resources of the world. With the enemy dead, there's no rush, right?
      That would not weight in for the Vault Tec theory, I would just assume that the US government would take advantage of the vaults to end the war.
      What do you guys think?

      That's the whole point, lol. Micro electronics was never invented apart from the pip-boy, which was the smallest human technology could get. That's why the machines were big, bulky and Extremely inefficient as the nuclear era combined with fossil fuels brought in so much energy that humanity didn't care to be more efficient which led to the exhaustion of the resources followed by the resource wars, the Sino-American war and finally the Great War.
      By the time humanity actually decided to something real about the energy crisis (developing fusion tech), it was already too late.

    I doubt that they had 38 in the whole US.
    That’s either a regional command or a specific unit’s command. The US would never have that little of an arsenal, so while the idea that aliens did it is still possible but that was not someone talking about the US in general.
    34 artillery, 42 aircraft? THREE divisions of light infantry? That is not an army, that’s a small defense force (maybe Anchorage, Hawaii’s, or *maybe* the smaller of the commonwealths).
    Not to mention there’s like 20 warheads in The Divide alone.
    Of course maybe Bethesda just doesn’t understand how comically small a military that is.

      "Ready to fire" is the key there.
      And resource war...with a huge chunk of the U.S military being busy overseas, hell when disorder started happening in the U.S they had to recall troops to ensure order..not deploy but actually bring troops home
      But for the ICBM's, the U.S has 4,018 nukes( barring ones waiting dismantlement), only 1,411 are on ICBM's (673 of them)
      not all of them are on high alert.(ready to be fired at a moments notice)
      The U.S may have had millions of nukes, it doesn't mean it has all or even a large number of silos to house them and fire the moment a threat is detected
      Being in a resource deprived state many of the nukes would have been dismantled that were deemed not needed to ensure M.A.D

      But even that had to be split between both civilian and military uses during an increasingly strained energy crisis, one that ramped up to a point where the U.S had to divert soldiers from the offensive to try and control riots
      While there are almost certainly more than 38 nukes total, since they only needed to hit china they would've canablized a great number of the stockpile to try and fuel the country...to prevent unrest and losing the war because of it
      Hr also never said they only has 38 nukes, merrly 38 on alert.
      Thr huge focus on nuclear energy makes it..difficult to maintain a massive stockpile while your people need it.

      (J. Smith) Exactly! I think Vault Tech did it to follow through with their sick, twisted experiments on people without getting into trouble or before they were suspected of it by civilians. I think Vault Tech dropped bombs in America AND in China to upset both countries so people would hide in their vaults for their experiments.
      They were prepared.. hurrying to get people to purchase places in their vaults and rushing their classes/teaching (as we saw in Fallout 76), pushing it into *3 MONTHS* of training, and they had communication methods prepared and rules/regulations/time stamps set up.
