At an unknown point, there was a mutiny led by a Secret Service agent nicknamed " Shorty" among the inhabitants, which killed many of them, and the numbers dwindled further over the years as at least three others took their own lives. Post-WarĪfter the War, the Vault remained sealed, awaiting orders from the outside that the Vault's gold deposits were needed. Stabo was buried in a shallow grave near its entrance for her troubles, one of the last pre-War casualties of the Vault's need for secrecy.Īs with the other Vaults, Vault 79 was sealed shut during the Great War in 2077 by the soldiers on shift, who had received word from the Air Force. The dramatic shootout and cover-up attracted the attention of Flavia Stabo, who began investigating Montgomery and the other soldiers and found the Vault shortly before the Great War. Rutkowski and others who remembered the group from bars around Berkeley Springs disappeared soon after. Montgomery was not the final witness to be silenced however, as her partner C. Branded as a Chinese spy and dubbed "Shanghai Sally," she escaped the city but was killed trying to flee Galveston, Texas, her boat being destroyed by the USS Wade. They were subsequently engaged in a shootout at the Ultra-Luxe casino by the local police forces in an attempt to silence them, and were all killed despite their attempts to surrender, with the sole survivor being Sergeant Kathryn Montgomery, who had been staying in the Lucky 38. The secrecy of the Vault was put in jeopardy in July 2072 when a group of soldiers guarding the installation stole millions of dollars and went to gamble in Las Vegas. Orders given to the soldiers watching over it included treating all intruders as hostile agents and to be dealt with as such, all shift logs were to be packaged and delivered to the officer of the watch, activate the contingency plan when ordered, not to smoke away from the designated smoking area and to stay out of sight. All the gold from the bullion depository at Fort Knox was secretly transferred to Vault 79 by military forces (such as Captain Fields' team) to act as safe storage and to be used as the basis to rebuild the United States of America and the economy. The number in Vault 79's designation was chosen in reference to the atomic number of gold, the precious resource that the Vault was designed to store and protect. In the meantime, we also appreciate when players like yourself let us know about stuff like this.Constructed in secret by the Vault-Tec Corporation from 2072 onwards, Vault 79 was built with no expenses spared for concealment a different contractor to the other Appalachian vaults was used to supply concrete, and land was acquired from local farmers by government agents claiming the land was radioactive, offering large sums of money as compensation. "These Vaults are still under construction, but we look forward to sharing more on how they will become part of the game. "Glad to hear you got in and out of the Vault in one piece," wrote community manager jessBethesda in a reply (opens in new tab). Bethesda set a precedent for banning those who explore unreleased content when it punished some players who entered the secret 'dev room' (opens in new tab) containing every item in the game (and then some).įortunately, McStaken reported their experience by submitting a bug report ticket to Bethesda, and the powers that be at Bethesda have been kind. So enjoy pictures and Bethesda, send a Vault-Tec rescue party!" No one could blame McStaken for documenting their unexpected venture beyond Vault 63's sealed entrance, though there was some concern that even being there at all could result in a permanent ban. "We entered the vault accidentally while doing a Rad-Rat Horde event," they wrote. McStaken's Reddit post explains how they got into this mess in the first place.
