The Federation Crash Site is a special encounter in Fallout 2.
Layout[]
The shuttle, apparently coming from the USS Torres, crash-landed in a wooded area. The three occupants, apparently security officers or engineers, died of dehydration. The dry climate preserved their bodies well. Their only possessions are futuristic hypos, which perform in a similar fashion to super stimpaks, but without the aftershock.
Behind the scenes[]
- The whole encounter is a homage to the Star Trek franchise. The shuttle design dates back to the Original Series, as do the redshirts (the poor souls that perished on an alien Earth, consistent with the series' mortality rate among security officers wearing these uniforms), and even the name. Though no USS Torres exists, there are two characters in the series bearing the name: B'Elanna Torres from Star Trek: Voyager and a throwaway redshirt from Star Trek: The Next Generation.
- Originally, a phazer was to be found at this location, but it was cut from the game.
