okay it is now called charcters from fallout 1,2 and 3 that you would like to see86.147.45.103 13:38, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

TBH it would actually be somewhat feasible for Lyons to be back on the west coast for whatever reason. Perhaps bringing Squire Maxson back? Reconciling with the western Elders? Perhaps his expertise in leadership during the Purifier battles and following Broken Steel events earned him a command in the Brotherhood/NCR war(Which we know we'll be seeing in New Vegas)? They did kinda hijack a few Vertibirds from the Enclave. Assuming their nuclear power cells hold out and a roughly 250MPH forward flight speed at full power, a one-way express flight could likely be completed in 12-14 hours. Worst case is they have to stop somewhere in the midwest overnight to let things cool and grab some food/shuteye, and from FO:BOS we know there's plenty of Brotherhood strongholds they could do so at. Factor in that New Vegas takes place in 2280, and the rough date for the Enclave victory at Adams is in mid 2278(Assuming the canonical Lone Wanderer doesn't have ADHD they'll get there roughly when I did, April 2278), there's two years for him to make a journey that would only take two days at the longest, and might even only take half a day. Explaining his presence in the Mojave, or really any of the named CW BoS members, would be trivial.

Now onto the matter of FO3 characters I'd like to see in New Vegas:

Dogmeat, as he's a running gag in the series having been seen in most of the games so far.

Moira Brown. Why? I don't know why but I like her. She made Megaton worth not booming. I would not complain one bit if she had a store in some eccentric little village in the Mojave wasteland, explaining her voyage westward not withstanding. Or at least a shopkeep with her personality.

That pretty much sums it up. Bring on the new faces! TestECull 06:32, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

I think your idea with squire maxson is good86.137.239.167 12:30, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

I'll let you all speculate on whether there will be FO3 characters, but FO1 and FO2 characters will be more prominently featured. Remember -- this game takes place in Nevada, while FO3 takes place in DC...and the travel methods aren't that great.

Why speculate on something that is known? It's been stated by the developers that there will be NO FO3 characters in Fallout: New Vegas. Kris (talk) 16:43, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

NONE OF THAT MAKES ANY SENSE ANYWAY. You can't import saves like in Mass Effect and Fallout: New Vegas isn't a direct sequel. Any character that can die in Fallout 3 wouldn't be in Fallout: New Vegas. The Citadel along with the entire D.C. BoS and everyone in megaton can die because you can nuke Megaton and call the Enclave orbital strike on The Citadel. However, Dogmeat may be possible as it's always nice to have a dog companion and Dogmeat is a continued name. And just so you know all of Fallout 3 takes place in 2277 (not mid 2278) with Fallout: New Vegas in 2280, but it doen's matter because Elder Lyons and Sentinel Lyons can die depending on your choices in Fallout 3. (Also, talking to these people in Fallout: New Vegas is awkward for you as the player for knowing them and not being able to tell them that) But Herald in Fallout 3 was cool.Lx MALEX xl 04:56, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

@Kris: Because we can, that's why. Pipe dreams aren't illegal far as I know. As far as whether or not Megaton/Citadel got blown to kingdom come..we don't know what's canonical regarding that. The player can fuck up some serious shit in Fallout 1 and 2 as well but the canon says those things never got fucked up. Also I feel sorry for anyone who speedruns Fallout 3 so fast they finish broken steel while the in-game date still says it's 2277. One misses so much of the game that way. I ran through it fairly quickly myself and I still didn't get to the purifier until January 2278, and I didn't finish Adams up until April of same. Some players that take time to do the side quests first might not even activate the purifier until 2278. I'm assuming the canonical date for the events of broken steel will be in mid 2278 or so, again giving Lyons two years to make a trip that would take two days to make. Again we don't know what events regarding those locations is considered canonical yet, we'll likely find out in New Vegas. I highly doubt blowing the Citadel up is gonna be canon, mainly because while it would effectively end Brotherhood operations in the east coast it would do very little on the west coast. Megaton going kablooey definitely wouldn't be news on the west coast because nobody over there is going to care about a small villiage built around an undetonated bomb.

@TestECull: The OP is about characters from Fallout 3 in Fallout: New Vegas. We're both right; it doesn't matter whether or not Megaton and The Citadel were blown up for the New Vegas story, but it does matter that because it is possible, those characters related are not in Fallout: New Vegas. OBVIOUSLY stuff in the East Coast doesn't matter in the West Coast, which is why in the game the stuff in Fallout 3 wouldn't be in New Vegas.Lx MALEX xl 04:56, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

it takes place 3 years after fallout 3

i've got a idea in one of the brotherhood bases they are some dead scribes from the brotherhood from washington or there is a note from owen saying that he is going washington to look for some tech.86.140.187.57 17:24, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
