Story

Although all the details of the story have not been fully revealed, many important details have been divulged.

The character started the game as a prisoner. Whether the character was wrongfully imprisoned or guilty was determined at character creation. The game started with the character awaking in a strange prison being attacked. An explosion knocks him unconcious, and, when he awakens, the cell door is open. Taking the opportunity to leave, the player escapes into the wasteland while being pursued by strange assailants. After leaving, the character would have the power to shape the destiny of the Wasteland. His interactions with organizations such as the Brotherhood of Steel could bolster or destroy the organizations, influencing people associated with them.

Vehicles

Van Buren was set to feature five vehicles.

Dune Buggy

:Fast and small, the Dune Buggy could hold four passengers and go where other vehicles couldn't. It had a 133 HP engine that ran on small energy cells.

Cop Car

:The cop car was the fastest vehicle in the game. It featured a 440 cubic inch engine that ran on small energy cells. It could carry six people.

Motorcycle

:The motorcycle, which also included a sidecar, was able to hold three people and could be upgraded to have a mounted gun. It was fuel-efficient, and small energy cells were all that was needed to power its 78 Horsepower motor.
