Mod:Fallout: The Frontier/Wild Wasteland

Wild Wasteland is a trait in Fallout: New Vegas, with continued use in Fallout: The Frontier. It adds (and in some cases changes) random encounters or locations which include dark humor more reminiscent of the special encounters in Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics. Not having this trait will make fewer humorous analogues in places of the Wild Wasteland encounters.

Events that are modified/triggered by Wild Wasteland are indicated by an "alienesque" sound and an on-screen "..." message with an image of the Vault Boy with spirals for eyes, identical to the Wild Wasteland image.
