I mean the new lore the show seems to be setting is that VaultTec caused the war.I always kind of got that vibe anyway honestly. Interesting to see them leaning into it more.

I think there's a storyline in 3's DLC that takes you back in time andyou are fighting off the initial Chinese ground invasion, meaning China likely started the war but who knows who launched the first nuke

The only thing that the show confirmed was that

Yeah, it just established that they had planned to drop a nuke if no one else did. The only thing that the show confirmed was thatI don't know that they did tbh.Vault Tec nuked Shady Sands when Maximus was a kid. Because that was their plan to "fix" the surface. Nuke away any problems from the safety of the vaults.
I watched the show before I started Fallout 4, but early in FO4 you can find a recording that says the nukes were a global event. so eitherhttps://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/c29b4d2b.jpgvault tech did it or it was aliens
I'm not 100% convinced aliens are canon even with Mothership DLC.
They're literally in every single mainline Fallout game. Their guns are usually the best weapons in the game.They should remain minor/optional stuff in my humble opinion. I'm not big on alien stuff

I'm guessing they only did aliens to use what was basically common place 50s depictions of aliens and their tech.
The Enclave has alien tech. Skynet was made with alien tech (it tells you so itself). It started out minor in 1, but starting with 2 they became a pretty involved part of the universe.
Still seems minor. Though I only remember dealing the enclave in 3 and then the remnants in New Vegas. Don't recall any alien tech not saying it's not there it just wasn't in your face I guess.
Enclave in 2 and Brotherhood of Steel both have Alien tech. Skynet is an NPC that tells you it was made with alien tech. New Vegas gets more alien encounters if you take the Wild Wasteland trait.
Hmm I always took wild wasteland and don't recall anything. Always took it cause the others always had a obvious downside.It was to the southeast of the Strip, IIRC, near the eastern edge of the map.

I mean the new lore the show seems to be setting is that VaultTec caused the war.It's in the games if you read between the lines. 4's opening shows this. Look at the dudes reaction when he makes sure the MC and family are ready to enter the vault. He knows somethings coming. That's why his reaction on not being let in shocks him.
In established lore China fired the first nuke and it happens after Alaska is retaken and the US has invaded mainland China.Perhaps that's still true, and Vault-Tec simply got beaten to the punch, before they had all their ducks in a row?

I don't know that they did tbh.Touche. It just seemed like wholeI don't think Vaults 31-33 are Vault-Tec's grand plan. They're just a Vault Bud was given because he was upper management so he could run his own little "Bud's Buds" Vault experiment. Hank was Barbara's executive assistant and Betty didn't seem to be much higher in the rankings. They're hardly cream of the crop for Vault-Tec.
Barbara was the highest ranking employee we see in the show and I'd bet money *she's* not in Vault 31.

Personally I hope they never actually reveal for certain who kicked things off and just keep it vague that it could've been anybodySame, it's not even really important to the setting.
Perhaps that's still true, and Vault-Tec simply got beaten to the punch, before they had all their ducks in a row?That seems plausible. Coop's wife, the seeming grand architect of the scheme, would have made certain her daughter was with her on the day of the attack, rather than at some kid's birthday party miles from the nearest Vault.
