Forum:Area 51 (vault 51)

i always hear people talking about wanting area 51 or area 51 as a vault. here is my idead of it vault 51 was built below area 51 to house military and political leaders, like vault 112 it will hav robobrains doing maintenance and stuff but insted of those VR (tranquility lane) things the people are in a cryo sleep like on mothership zeta, mabe it could be like all of the high ranking officers and mabe 1000 or so soldiers marked as "pre-war soldier" and they could be a hostile enemy because they awake from their sleep and see a battle going on between the NCR and the legion and they panic, or they see some ghouls and think a zombie invasion is happening, it would be great as a DLC as you can get pre-war shit, fight a new enemy that has nothing to do with the storyline and vault 51 is FULL of pre-war equipment and mabe even a new companion (cough cough sgt montgomery from operation anchorage xD)

leave your thoughts

 * I'm all for that as long as they make them seperate. Create Area 51 with the secret tech and alien history we all know and love, then create Vault 51 connected to it or under it with your suggestion above. Combining them imo would just be cutting corners and make the gamer feel cheated. They should be seperate massive areas in thier own right for us to exploe, loot and plunder. Also, Nellis AFB would be another area to add to NV. Think of the possibilities for that area.

Vault 51 would be somewhere under the Midwest, if the numbering of the Vaults is consistent. Nitty Tok. 18:30, February 14, 2010 (UTC) ___________________________________________________________________________________________________

I liked all the original weapons in FO3,but I realized I wanted ACTUALL weapons,like the M4,deagle,thumper,barrett .50 =P

It would be much more realistic if there were real weapons. And I want to be able to smoke in vegas,it just makes you feel more bad ass. So with the idea of an add-on for area 51...I think it should be just part of the game,pre-war weapons,shit loads of ammo and mabey a companion and cool armor/clothes.Just some more ideas from-

They could add Yucca Mountain as well which is one of the largest nuclear and radioactive waste sites in the US and it is very close to Area 51 in Nevada. The site is now dead caused by Obama but could be interesting considering its nuclear nature. Harry Callahan 20:34, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

@nitty, mabe they named it vault 51 to fit its location xD

Hate to rain on the parade, but area 51 will probobly not be included in the game.

Area 51 is over 80 miles away from Vegas. Granted, there may be a UFO or maybe an Area 51 research outpost, or they could distort it.

But keep in mind, Point Lookout was 80 miles from the Captial Wastes, and that had to be put in via DLC.

So, Not in the main game, but maybe via Download?

And as for the Vault Theory: Somewhat Likely. But then again, I don't think the Enclave would be too happy about the world's leaders survivng the Great War. And perhaps the military there will be mutated and insane, A La chinese remanents. 71.171.251.96 22:53, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

Yes Are 51 is about 80 miles away from Las Vegas but Good Springs is 50 miles in-game and its in the corner of the map from what i've heard so it very well may be in the game or as a DLC (Perfered)KiTTeN SmasHeR 01:40, July 3, 2010 (UTC)KiTTeN SmasHeRKiTTeN SmasHeR 01:40, July 3, 2010 (UTC) ____________________________________________________________

I think it should definately be an add on if it was 80 miles away maybe some dodgey guy with a humvee tells you he's planning to head out there but calls for help because of raiders when you get there half the raiders are dead and he offers you a trip to whereever it is except its more than just area 51 its also a bit of desert eg town wateva you go in vault get some stuff ask around near the end enclave attacks most of soldiers die but 51 still lives and youare aloud more stuff than you were at first specail weps id like to see area 51 beat up pretty bad by nukes. liambobjobs march 14 10:02

I looked on this map thing looks like its going to be just a bit north of the primm

First, to the anon above me, you mean the perimeter of the map right? Second, I agree with Nitty about the numbering of the Vaults. I'm not saying there can't be a Vault there (to house the resident scientists or something) but it shouldn't be Vault 51. Raymorn 06:10, March 19, 2010 (UTC)

Hey I was just doing some research on conspirasy theories, and umm cough cough... I thought about this and well..... I agree with the add on, but What about it being a remnant base... eveyone is in a cryo bay, and since the game has the reputation for groups in it, after you travel with scavengers to the dlc, a small town, it is nearby the area 51 base, you go in and discover that a small percentage of the personnel are frozen and the base is in lockdown, you find a MARGOT type of computer, and can convince the robots to stop attacking you and to unfreeze the personnel. Then you can talk to the particular commander of the area to awaken the rest of the base. after that they become a small faction, part of the DLC quest would be traveling with the town to protect them from supermutants or raiders, then as you complete it they have patrols in the deserts of NV, and they would give you the oppertunity to help in the fight and give you supplies, plus it will add a small outpost in the NV area to travel in and out of the DLC map? what do you think?

Who gives a crap if its 80 miles away. Its area freakin 51. Of course they will add it in a DLC.

On the Bethesda forums, the lead director of New Vegas said Area 51 will NOT be in New vegas, but never said it not being a DLC. So it might be a DLC, possibly. - GOD

I want area 51. Vault 51 is not that important to me. If they don't want to lose their numbering consistency then screw the vault just give me a bunch of frozen pre-war people w/ tech and guns later being attacked by a sad strange little Enclave that came from somewhere else after hearing about the place.

I think they should totally throw in area 51, but the surface should be totally nuked, where you find a few bits of alien and pre-war tech. then near the center of the map there is a manhole that leads to a vault 51. I like what fawkes2.0 said about cryo and pre war military troops, or maybe the soldiers have already risen from cryo and are using the vault as a base and have made contact with the enclave or the brotherhood.
