Fallout: DUST Survival Simulator is a Game Mod for Fallout: New Vegas that could be described as New Vegas meets DayZ minus actual zombies.Set 20 years after the events of the game, the Mojave is definitely not an okay place to live, not anymore. It is a dog-eat-dog ruin; where tribals, cannibals and survivalists battle it out for their very lives against the hostile wasteland (and each other), Hoover Dam is all but spent, New Vegas is nothing more than a ruin infected with the same Cloud that plagued the Sierra Madre and the NCR's remaining outposts in the region are shooting just about everyone on sight. But instead of someone like the Courier, the player is nothing more than just another survivor lucky to be alive. All you could do is find a way out, alive...if you can.Most of the difficulty comes from an overhaul in game's balance, and DUST plays much more like a survival game than Vanilla. Ammo and supplies are rarer, low quality ammo are much more common than standard bullets, equipment is usually found in very poor state and wears quicker, carry weight capacity is greatly reduced, limbs are crippled quicker, the hardcore needs raise much faster, food and water are much harder to find (almost no harvestable plants, no more functional plumbing inside, many of the natural water sources are dry), NPCs and critters (both neutral and hostile) don't show up on the compass, and there's now a sanity meter.Has a spiritual successor in the form of Fallout Frost; a similar Survival Horror inspired Fallout mod made by the same author, this time taking place only a couple of years after the bombs dropped.An official trailer can be found here. | |

Still Wearing the Old Colors | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_145490c6 | comment |
Still Wearing the Old Colors: Some of the tribals still use the remains of Legionnaire armor and equipment, hinting at their past as part of Caesar's Legion. A number of cannibals meanwhile are apparently former NCR soldiers who went AWOL when the Mojave took a turn for the worst. An interesting case is Cottonwood Cove, which has become a cannibal camp renamed to "Aurelia", still lead by Aurelius of Phoenix who has gone mad and become a cannibal himself. Despite this, he still wears his Legion armor, and governs as if he's still giving Legion-style orders, although said orders are completely insane and arbitrary. A corpse in the sewers wearing Legion armor has a note where he still writes a bit in Latin and laments the death of Caesar. After seeing the NCR's mutants loose in the sewers, he felt that the Legion would have never let that happen had it taken over. Possibly related to him, or possibly an independent Legion group, there is a shrine with the Legion flag surrounded by gore and a couple of NCR sacrifices, complete with a sacrificial knife. | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: Your starting arsenal's gonna be pretty dinky no where you start at. Most of the time, you'll average at about two bullets, maybe a piece of armor if you're lucky; all of which are in horrible condition and won't last long. That's before taking in your immediate surroundings filled with enemies that can shred you. The Brotherhood of Steel safehouse is the worst about this: You start with a scythe, no armor and the game's three deadliest enemy types camped out along the immediate area. Good luck. | |

| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: DUST turns New Vegas into a survival simulator more akin to DayZ. The mod's creator admits as well that this was made because of how the Mojave seemed too tame and didn't seem "post-apocalyptic" enough. | |

Level in Boss Clothing | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_18c4c279 | comment |
Level in Boss Clothing: The entirety of the Survivor's trek through Zion is a cat-and-mouse game between them and the unkillable Wendigo. You can't fight the creature so much as scare it off with fire. You only "win" by snatching the key to the Pine Creek Tunnel from the NCR forces stationed in the Sorrows Camp and getting the hell out of dodge. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Your only real goal is to get to safety but there are multiple ways of going about that, each of which get more complex. The least-obvious ending. With a Repair skill of 75, a Workbench and a number of required parts listed by a dead Brotherhood Scribe, a Survivor can repair one of the abandoned airplanes stationed inside Searchlight Airport OR beside Jean Sky Diving. The plane will fly the Survivor to Camp Adytum and safety. If a Survivor follows the train tracks southward from the former town of Nipton or manages to stumble onto the Legion Safehouse, (one of the possible starting locations) they'll find a tower of rubble they can interact with. It can be cleared away if one can secure 5 very-rare C4 Charges. If this happens, the Survivor can find themselves in the flooded warzone that was once the Big Empty. The last step is to yank a Tampered Transportalponder from Elite Mooks (either within Little Yangtze or The Cuckoo's Nest) which will take them to safety. There's a Vertibird inside Camp McCarran, but the entrance to the Camp is barricaded. The only way in is through the monorail system VIA The Strip. Getting into the Strip is a challenge in and of itself,note One can either open the Hard locked door on the Strip's exterior, use the main gate in Freeside if the Key was taken from personnel in Camp Golf, enter The Sewers and swipe the master Key there or simply be stark-raving mad and find your way to Gomorrah from the mental hellscape hallucinations take you to. but once inside, a Key to the Monorail should be on someone's person in the Embassy. If the Survivor manages to make their way to the Vertibird from here despite the absurd number of hostiles inside the Camp, the plane frees them from the Mojave....and crashes them into the Sierra Madre. Luckily, a corpse in the fountain has a key one can use to enter a grate near the crash-site and actually make it to safety. Survivors that stumble onto the Northern Passage near the Followers Safehouse may have noticed graves out front. With a shovel, some digging and mopping up of two stragglers inside the passage border-cave, they'll obtain the means to enter Zion Canyon. If the Survivor manages to scare off The Wendigo and make it to The Sorrows Camp, they'll get a Key off of the NCR forces there that can let them into the Pine Creek Tunnel linked to The Long Dark. The door to Safety is right there, but needs a Key. At the end of The Long Dark is a cave linked to the Vault 74 Overseer's Office and a marked cabinet with the final object needed to make it to safety. | |

Necessary Drawback | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_1c0d4155 | comment |
Necessary Drawback: Many of the perks carried over from the base game are now saddled with these. For example, the Gunslinger and Commando perks now have, as a drawback, an accuracy penalty on the type of weapon covered by the opposing perk (eg. Gunslinger's penalty affects weapons that benefit from Commando, and vice versa). Another example is this mod's version of Shotgun Surgeon. It now adds a drawback of reduced damage when using non-shotgun firearms. Also, two of the three perks which are unlocked by insanity themselves add new drawbacks on top of insanity's consequences (for instance, "Communistic Wisdom" increases xp gain rate but raises prices by 1000%). | |

What's left of the Mojave Chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel has taken up residence in Fort Searchlight. (Thanks to the NCR demolishing the Hidden Valley Bunker during The Fall) There's also a contingent fighting within the Big Empty, but it isn't clear which Chapter they're part of. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: The Mojave Wasteland has definitely become this over the 20-year Time Skip. Outside of the handful of NCR outposts and garrisons as well as the Brotherhood of Steel-controlled Camp Searchlight, there's next to no order or civilization left, the landscape now a twisted mix of the Capital Wasteland and the Divide. On top of that, don't expect the faction-controlled areas to be any less hostile to you than anywhere else in the wastes; everyone's paranoid and armed, factions won't change that. To the point that the number of people who don't shoot on sight that can be encountered in one game could be counted with one hand. | |

Failure Is the Only Option | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_260926c3 | comment |
Failure Is the Only Option: The Survivors holed up in the former Crimson Caravan Company debated on whether or not to explore Freeside and The Strip to see if they were habitable. An outlier named Blake figured The Strip for just another dead ruin and the mission of curiosity a pointless one. He was correct. | |

The Dreaded | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_2ae29c0d | comment |
The Dreaded: The lore points to The Courier becoming this, with implications that he became a Fallen Hero. The Wendigo, who was already the extremely dreaded Joshua Graham, stalks Zion Canyon and is feared by just about every living thing there. For good reason. The player character themselves, to a tribal chieftain who has visions they will come to kill them. Whether you fulfill said prophecy is up to you. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Energy Weapons are miracles to find in-and-of themselves and their ammo even more so. NCR/Legion-based armor (as well as the patchwork equivalents worn by Tribals and Cannibals) has impressive stopping-power...and ranges from 12 to 25-or-so pounds; almost a third of your total capacity. The maximum weight a Survivor can start with is 70. Lighter armors with almost as much defense can be scavenged easily and take up less of your space. Mines are way stronger than they are in the base game. However, due to enemies' increased perception and reactivity, you'll never really be in a position to lay them without getting caught; making them nigh-useless as anything other than a spiteful get-away response. The Ghost Hunter perk allows you to kill Ghost People properly, as they're invincible otherwise. But said enemies are consigned to very specific areas of the gamenote Namely Boulder City, The Sewers, one area near the outskirts of Freeside and Vaults 11 and 21. and are very easy to outrun. Unless you're pursuing the McCarran Vertibird ending, there's not much of a reason to take this perk over something more beneficial. | |

The Bad Guy Wins | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_2e8441c9 | comment |
The Bad Guy Wins: Not for DUST proper, but for Dead Money. The state of the Mojave is Father Elijah's plan going off in such a way that his goals are met in a slightly different way than he intended. The NCR accepted the Cloud samples he provided and destroyed the Mojave, with even some parts of NCR proper becoming affected. The slate in the Mojave is wiped clean as a direct result of Elijah, as he wanted. Granted, he's not alive to see it, but still. | |

Glass Cannon | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Due to the reworked damage system (and scarcity of ammo), you and your enemies are this. Most guides online encourage stealth-oriented builds that take advantage of critical hits. To bring it all home, there's little difference in defense between a survivor wearing 6 DT armor and a survivor wearing nothing at all. | |

Beef Gate: After a fashion. The presence of cannibals, tribals, Tunnelers and trigger-happy survivalists mean that certain areas of the Mojave are nigh impossible to access unless you're properly equipped or leveled up. Also, a pair of Deathclaws stalk the road near the 188 Train Overpass.....Just in case the Deathclaw Promontory hasn't scared you away yet. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: The Abandoned Home starting point near Westside has an explosive-rigged Mailbox in front of it that's destined to go off the moment you leave since you spawn right next to it. If you somehow manage to survive it, the Tribals scripted to always appear in front of the house will finish you off. Expect a constant state of taking shrapnel to the face then getting sniped as you try to flee. The only way out is to exit the game and restart it, as opposed to simply re-loading your save. | |

Took a Level in Kindness | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_3dcc914f | comment |
Took a Level in Kindness: The NCR in California is run by good guy faction Followers of the Apocalypse. Resources are spent on bringing the people responsible for what happened in the Mojave to justice, as well as dispersing the cloud from other places and taking care of refugees from such places. On the other hand, it's mentioned that Kimball is still President of the NCR, implying that he managed to cash in on his war hero credentials while also swaying the Followers to support his rule. One ending nonetheless has you end up in a friendly, NCR-run refugee camp. Zig-zagged with the Divide Tribals, who were originally savages until Junaid re-organized them into a society - after which they started helping refugees from the Mojave. Then Zion's Tribals invaded them due to various misunderstandings and they've been xenophobic since. | |

| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_3ebc57ac | comment |
The Mojave Chapter of the Brotherhood were livid at the Elder's restrictive bunker lockdown and was afraid it would destroy them. Said lockdown inspired the NCR to suffocate everyone inside with toxic waste during The Fall. Only a few stragglers of the Valley chapter remain and it's implied they've become just as paranoid as the rest of the wasteland. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The game has a number of these all linking back to major concerns people had for the future of the Mojave. Ulysses warned the Courier the Tunnelers would overtake the Mojave Wasteland within years (if not less). That problem was left tantalizingly unresolved by the end of Lonesome Road and without a solution they've swarmed the Mojave twenty years after. Without Caesar to lead his army, his Legion inevitably collapsed, with many former members reverting back into a number of smaller primitive tribes in the two decades since his absence. The NCR's interest in Vault 22 released the infectious Mordicana Spores into the air exactly as Dr. Keely was afraid it would; making its way to Zion rather than infecting the Mojave. The infection has destroyed nearly all wildlife and driven out its residents, turning Zion Canyon into a desolate swamp that makes the Mojave look lush. The Mojave Chapter of the Brotherhood were livid at the Elder's restrictive bunker lockdown and was afraid it would destroy them. Said lockdown inspired the NCR to suffocate everyone inside with toxic waste during The Fall. Only a few stragglers of the Valley chapter remain and it's implied they've become just as paranoid as the rest of the wasteland. | |

Infinity -1 Sword | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_480c69ba | comment |
Infinity -1 Sword: The Makeshift Scythe is the second-highest damaging melee weapon in the mod that can be crafted back to full health at practically any time. While the Makeshift Axe is also self-sustaining and has more DPS, the Scythe has a reach advantage no other melee weapon can boast. Skillful movement (or running speed-related Perks) on the Survivor's part makes every close-range engagement a joke. | |

Scenery Gorn: The Mojave is much worse for wear after two decades, looking like a twisted blend of the Divide and Capital Wasteland, with New Vegas itself shrouded in radiation and the Cloud from the Sierra Madre. Zion isn't much better, having become a battlefield between a horde of ravenous Mordicana Spore-zombies and an NCR expedition hanging by a thread. | |

Improvised Weapon | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_4de1a4f7 | comment |
Improvised Weapon: DUST introduces a new "Makeshift" weapon type: crude killing implements cobbled together from random junk (belonging to the Melee Weapons, Guns, and Energy Weapons classes). For instance, the Makeshift Scythe is just a crutch and a lawn-mower blade crammed together. These weapons aren't the strongest, but are relatively easy to repair. Some of the makeshift weapons can be created via crafting. | |

This extends to escaping the nightmarish wasteland. Going to Zion just puts you in the middle of a battlefield between an NCR expedition and the horde of fungal-infected husks whittling them down. Taking the Vertibird out of the Mojave just sends you crashing in the Sierra Madre, which is still laden with Ghost People and the original Cloud. This latter path also happens to be the correct one in order to escape once and for all. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |

Whatever cohesion that held the remaining NCR forces in the Mojave together is steadily declining by the time of DUST. Not only have the remnants adopted a paranoid shoot-on-sight policy for any wastelander, letters left behind by disgruntled soldiers imply barbary has become the norm inside the army too. One unit was shot at by their own superiors simply because they didn't have their uniforms on. | |

Happy Ending Override: A certain sort of "happy ending" at least, which seems to incorporate elements from both the NCR and Independent endings. What backstory the player can uncover implies that the mod takes place following an NCR victory in Hoover Dam that in turn led to the Mojave becoming integrated with the NCR. Things don't exactly turn out as was hoped. | |

Militaries Are Useless: Played With. The NCR's authority in the Mojave is non-existent by the time of DUST. You'd expect the units left behind to organize. They can't even do that, pecking at each other (as one Camp Golf squad learned the hard way) and organizing against everyone else. The NCR will shoot anyone else on-sight just like any paranoid survivor and have no interest in peacekeeping Vegas. | |

Kaizo Trap | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_75f38750 | comment |
Kaizo Trap: There are quite a few. Expecting relative safety in an area after a particularly rough encounter is a good way to wind up being gunned down by survivalists or mauled to death by Tunnelers. Applies way more in settled areas like Primm and Mo-Tel. Just cleared out the town and figure it's a good time to scavenge houses for goodies? Enjoy being swarmed by the people that were hiding inside! Mines are real fun when they're placed right in front of a door with no way to avoid them while you're spawning in, aren't they? | |

From Bad to Worse | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_7870735b | comment |
From Bad to Worse: How the backstory unfolds. Over the course of 20 years, growing unrest in New Vegas, the drying up of the Dam, the arrival of Tunnelers from the Divide, increasingly desperate measures on the NCR's part to contain the damage and eventually, the fall of New Vegas to the Cloud conspire to turn the Mojave into a desolate ruin. This extends to escaping the nightmarish wasteland. Going to Zion just puts you in the middle of a battlefield between an NCR expedition and the horde of fungal-infected husks whittling them down. Taking the Vertibird out of the Mojave just sends you crashing in the Sierra Madre, which is still laden with Ghost People and the original Cloud. This latter path also happens to be the correct one in order to escape once and for all. | |

Our Zombies Are Different: New Vegas residents closest to The Strip when The Cloud spread outward that didn't turn into Ghost People were robbed of their skin and instead became a new type of Ghoul that lives in constant physical agony. While the majority of these Cloud Victims are half-Feral hostiles that will lash out at anything in range, some have retained their mental faculties and try to carry on the best they can. Emphasis on try. | |

Took a Level in Jerkass | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_8cb1a369 | comment |
Took a Level in Jerkass: The NCR, who are the only real "civilized" presence left in the Mojave. But given how much of a mess the wasteland's become and the botched attempts to restore order to the point of blocking the passage into California via the former Mojave Outpost, their shoot-on-sight cynicism might be justified. Not that they weren't jerkasses in the intervening 20 years; they are possibly responsible for the clouds in Vegas, as they were working on a bio-weapon before pulling out and evacuated themselves mere hours before the cloud hit, locking the Vegas residents in. All to stop a rebellion which was mostly fueled because of fear the NCR would do something like that. Likewise, it's implied that the Mojave Chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel has devolved into glorified bandits with Father Elijah's twisted mentality. | |

Apocalypse Not: Inverted hard with the Mojave Wasteland. In New Vegas the Mojave was one of the safest and most prosperous places in post-apocalyptic America, rivaled only by the NCR. However, twenty years after the Fall, civilization in the Mojave has completely collapsed and the future of the few survivors that still remain looks incredibly bleak. Played straight with the Divide which has developed into a stable tribal society over the last 20 years. | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: DUST greatly ramps up enemies' Perception and field of view. While this makes stealth more important, it also has the effect of invalidating it at times. Enemies have a tendency to loop in-and-out of alert status unless you're well enough away from the immediate area. It isn't uncommon for you to have hid from an enemy only for them to suddenly re-investigate and flush you out of an otherwise-perfect hiding spot. Tunnelers and Ghouls are horrid climbers. Find a high-enough rock/car and you can peck at them all day. | |

Father Elijah is also this as he made sure that the NCR would get its hands on a sample of the Cloud which resulted in the complete destruction of the Strip and Freeside. | |

However, the quest itself does not actually complete and nothing important happens, making it very obvious that this is not the sanctuary you're seeking.

Continuity Nod: In New Vegas, one of the dialog option when talking with Cass prior to unlock her as a follower is to point out the Mojave Outpost would turn into a deathtrap for its inhabitants if the place is invaded by the Legion. It seems this is roughly Cass' fate in DUST, as cannibals invaded the Mojave Outpost and now inhabit the place; Cass' corpse can be found in the kitchen, another room of the building she can initially be found in New Vegas. One of the endings for Old World Blues imply the Sink Computer floods the crater in an effort to sterilize it. In DUST, the entirety of the Big Empty is a techno-punk swamp courtesy of said flood. | |

If a Survivor follows the train tracks southward from the former town of Nipton or manages to stumble onto the Legion Safehouse, (one of the possible starting locations) they'll find a tower of rubble they can interact with. It can be cleared away if one can secure 5 very-rare C4 Charges. If this happens, the Survivor can find themselves in the flooded warzone that was once the Big Empty. The last step is to yank a Tampered Transportalponder from Elite Mooks (either within Little Yangtze or The Cuckoo's Nest) which will take them to safety. | |

Sanity Meter | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_b351b856 | comment |
Sanity Meter: Your sanity (Replacing the Karma Meter of vanilla game) has a numerical value attached to it. Doing things like consuming human flesh, getting addicted to drugs, and murdering people cause it to steadily lower. You can regain sanity by consuming alcohol and Thorazine (the latter is by far the most efficient sanity-drug available, and isn't addictive compared to alcoholic beverages). Once it gets low enough, you'll be permanently Driven to Madness.note The hallucinations and madness-induced encounters result from a reworked version of the Wacky Wasteland perk renamed "Insanity". | |

Civilization Destroyer | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_b364b551 | comment |
Civilization Destroyer: Not just one but several: The weaponized version of the Cloud which absolutely destroyed the Strip and Freeside. The tunnelers that have dug their way to the Mojave and now terrorize the Mojave Wasteland. A mysterious plague that has wiped out the entire population of Goodsprings And to nail the last nail into the coffin, there is almost no water in the Mojave at all as the Hoover Dam has completely dried up. It is implied that the water has disappeared because it was teleported to the Big MT. | |

| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_b4d6aa7d | comment |
Dungeon Bypass: The "Nightmare" level you may visit once suffering from insanity represents a hallucinatory episode where the player character blacks out and regains consciousness elsewhere without remembering how they got there; ingame, you leave Nightmare through one-way doors which sent you to various places of the Mojave. One of those exits is located inside the Gomorrah, allowing to bypass the sewers to enter the Strip. | |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_b77808f2 | comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: The mod reveals that most named characters are either dead, hostile or otherwise hostile and insane. The former Mojave Outpost in particular contains the corpse of Cass, who's implied to have been killed when the Outpost was overrun by cannibals. Arcade Gannon is dead in the New Vegas Sewers, killed alongside many of the other Followers Of the Apocalypse. Raul Tejada is heavily implied to have been dead by the time of DUST, though we never learn how he died. In the Sierra Madre, Father Elijah's skeletal corpse is worshipped by the Ghost People as "The Father." The Courier is implied to have become a Fallen Hero and renegade wanted by the NCR. He's found to still be alive and holding out in a survivalist cache near former Lake Mead, albeit ghoulified and heavily armed. Zion's tribal leaders Daniel and Joshua Graham remained at-odds as The Fall progressed and the Mordicana infection plagued Zion. The tribes they led were massacred by the Divide's Tribes after being driven out while Daniel died at the hands of Graham, who was transformed by the infection into the horrific Wendigo. Colonel Cassandra Moore can still be found inside the (now useless) Hoover Dam along with the remaining NCR forces. The King (along with the Rebels) has managed to escape Freeside during the Fall and helped to evacuate several civilians in the process. Unfortunately, he dies from blood loss not too long after reaching Boulder City due to being mortally wounded by NCR soldiers. | |

No Name Given: Subverted. Most NPCs (even those important to the plot) are ever recorded in-game as some variation of "Survivor" or "Cannibal," with only lore-bits near them giving you anything to work with. Which makes sense, as you aren't the Courier and wouldn't know them anyway. This is enforced with the Researcher stationed on Black Mountain, who lore heavily implies is Lydia Bernard. There's also the Survivor that attacks you in the North Passage cave to Zion. The note on his person identifies him as Fallout 3's Butch Deloria. | |

Spiritual Antithesis: To New Vegas, despite being a sequel. In New Vegas, the Mojave is settled by various factions (and is becoming more and more civilized), the storyline consists in joining a faction to resolve the conflict around Hoover Dam, and in general dialogs and alliance play a big role in the game. In DUST, the area has devolved into barbary, the storyline solely consists in fleeing from the Mojave, and almost all people in the area are on "shoot on sight" mode. | |

Happened to Novac, which has become The Land of Mo-Tel in the intervening years. A Legion Centurion occupied the town during the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, only for food to become an issue. The obvious solution led to the tribe devolving into a mad cult that worships the town dinosaur by the time of DUST. Most of the Legion identity has leaked into the current cult-gospel, though the Centurion has a shrine dedicated to him in a shack at the edge of town; the only proper remnant of what the tribe used to be. | |

Color Wash: The Mojave's climate has also gone to hell. Survivors are met with blood-orange daytime skies and nights that greet them with sickly purple clouds or absolute darkness. As you approach The Strip, the sky often becomes an ominous red. Zion now enjoys a sickly green fog that overtakes it at night courtesy of the killer spores in the air. The skies of the Big Empty are a dark violet. Whether this is due to radiation or energies from the various technologies in the crater reacting is unknown. | |

Nerf: The utilities of Strength and Endurance get massive cuts in DUST, halving your Carry Weight and HP from the get-go and increasing at lowered rates. Backpacks (though rare) mitigate the weight problem in exchange for Agility cuts. Perception's numbers stay the same but most of the compass-functions it's designed around are gone, making it practically a Dump Stat. Weapons and armor decay much faster in DUST. To say the Repair skill is a requirement is an understatement. The December 2020 Update to Manan's Tweaks removes the ability to auto-repair the Makeshift Scythe/Axe on-the-spot. Breaking these down now gives you a Dull Blade you need to re-sharpen with a Whet Stone first before you can re-craft them. | |

| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b | comment |
Gameplay and Story Integration: Some of the new race options introduced in DUST are lifted directly from the Tribals the Survivor can confront in the Divide. Joshua Graham's traumatic experiences with fire have carried over into his second life as The Wendigo, which is why it's just as scared of fire as other Abominations. Lore repeatedly stresses the lethality of the experimental radiation treatments created by Royst and Bernard. Sure enough, Experimental Rad-X/Radaway will destroy your health without something to counter it. It's really good at purifying beverages, though... Butch Deloria and Jess guard the entrance to Zion National Park because they'd already escaped from there. It's difficult to get proper sleep in Zion when you're being hunted by a Botanical Abomination and the infectious spores in the air. The hallucinations resultant from being Driven to Madness don't go away even if you manage to claw your mental state back to neutral. Regaining one's mind means having to live with one's actions. | |

Survivors fleeing to The Divide may have been misinformed about the locals' new policy on hospitality. | |

Crazy Survivalist | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_f1d7b320 | comment |
Crazy Survivalist: There are still quite a number of survivalists holding out in the wasteland who aren't tribals, cannibals or trigger-happy NCR personnel. And in general they're no less hostile to you either. | |

Stone Wall | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_f62cc38a | comment |
Stone Wall: The few remaining Super Mutants in the Mojave are this. Their attacks only hit about as hard as a typical gunshot, but even the best weapons in the game barely scratch them that much. Nearly every FAQ's answer to dealing with Super Mutants amounts to "don't." Evolved Centaurs have thick skins and are helpless to chase after you if you're not in their face. The immortal Ghost Peoples' twitchy jumping prowess belies their inability to get anywhere. Outrunning them is not hard. | |

The Strip is one for Survivors. The prevailing rumor is that The Strip is the last holdout of humanity, ruled by the NCR. The truth is way more depressing. | |

Last Stand | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_f7cee9b | comment |
Daniel sealing the doors to the Pine Creek Tunnel (so he could fight a losing battle against The Wendigo without endangering the Zion Tribes) had the unfortunate result of trapping them in a suicidal Last Stand against the Divide Tribals, who wiped them out. | |

The Remnant | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_f9c17447 | comment |
The Remnant: Multiple groups are remnants of one or more factions from the time of the Second Battle of Hoover Dam. The tribals in general seem to have their origins in survivors hailing from Caesar's Legion and the Great Khans, who over time devolved into scattered tribes just to survive. Most of the NCR soldiers still operating in the area are stragglers who didn't make it out of the Mojave in time and have no choice but to hold out as long as possible. The rest are what's left of the Royst-Bernard Expedition, a rogue force sent in to continue the NCR's research that's been gradually scattered and whittled down by the forces of the Mojave. Members of the Freeside Uprising are scattered across the wastes (including the Kings in Boulder City) after their Revolution was put down. What's left of the Mojave Chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel has taken up residence in Fort Searchlight. (Thanks to the NCR demolishing the Hidden Valley Bunker during The Fall) There's also a contingent fighting within the Big Empty, but it isn't clear which Chapter they're part of. It's implied at one point that Tribals descended from Caesar's Legion were present in Zion National Park; fighting the NCR stationed there. By the time The Survivor arrives however, there's barely any NCR left - everything else assimilated (or destroyed) by Vault 22's Mordicana Spores. | |

Last-Second Ending Choice | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_fb2ff597 | comment |
Last-Second Ending Choice: Right before boarding the Vertibird in Camp McCarran, a prompt will pop up that cites how much of a Fallen Hero the player has become and gives you the opportunity to turn down using it. Choosing not to will give you a fair amount of experience in exchange for permanently locking you out of that ending. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You | |
| Fallout: Dust (Video Game) / int_ffd816e7 | comment |
Everything Trying to Kill You: If dealing with tribals, cannibals and other fellow survivors aren't enough, the Tunnelers from Lonesome Road and a new generation of Ghost People in the Cloud-infested New Vegas ruins are also in town. Don't expect help from the NCR however, as its remaining forces in the region are more likely to shoot you on sight too. Same goes for the Brotherhood of Steel too. | |
