Rivet City is one of the more advanced settlements that can be found in Fallout 3. The Lone Wanderer comes to Rivet City as they search for their father, where the player is able to learn more about the settlement. Completing quests in Rivet City will reveal more about the citizens and the history of the settlement.
With the Broken Steel DLC, the city gains even more importance throughout the Capital Wasteland. Exploring Rivet City and reading the many terminals and notes will reveal interesting information to the player. There are also some facts about Rivet City the player can discover by exploring the Capital Wasteland.
10 Has The Fourth-Largest Military In Capital Wasteland
When the largest militaries of the Capital Wasteland comes to mind, it is probably assumed the Raiders or any of the other groups are up there. The security team for Rivet City is the fourth largest military in the Capital Wasteland. It might be a surprise, as security teams are usually small and weak.
Rivet City is one of the more important settlements, so it makes sense it would be well-defended. Players should take this into account if they ever feel like assaulting the place.
9 Head Of Security Is A Synth
The head of security of Rivet City is named Harkness. What players might not know is that he is a synth and once worked for The Institute. Harkness once worked for the Synth Retention Bureau before he became sentient and escaped.
Another member of the Synth Retention Bureau, Dr. Zimmer, came to Rivet City to look for Harkness. The player can either turn Harkness in or convince Dr. Zimmer that the synth is dead.
8 Seagrave Holmes Was A Slaver
Seagrave Holmes is the grandson of one of the Rivet City Council founders, Anette Holmes. He also has a store in Rivet City where he sells junk. Despite his assumed high standing in Rivet City, Seagrave also has a dark past.
By finding an incriminating note, it is possible to discover Seagrave was once a slaver. He uses to sell wastelanders to Paradise Falls, but he gave up that life. This note can be used to keep Seagrave from becoming a member of the Rivet City Council.
7 Can Witness A Wedding
There is a church in Rivet City called Saint Monica's Church. The player is able to convince two teenagers to get married, leading to a wedding at this church. By convincing Angela and Diego to get married, players are able to join in and watch as they become man and wife.
Diego was an acolyte in the church, meaning he had to leave in order to marry Angela. While they are teenagers, Angela is 16 and Diego is 18. Father Clifford will perform the wedding, allowing Diego to leave the church.
6 Target Option For Bradley-Hercules
It is known that Rivet City is an important settlement in the Capital Wasteland. It should be no surprise it has caught the attention of the Enclave. In the Broken Steel DLC, players can gain access to the Enclave's Bradley-Hercules satellite.
There are five targets to choose from: the Citadel, Project Purity, Megaton, Rivet City Carrier, and Adams AFB Platform. The player is only able to choose the Citadel or the Adams AFB Platform, meaning the citizens of the Capital Wasteland are safe for one more day.
5 Biggest Settlement In The Capital Wasteland
Rivet City is the biggest settlement that can be found in the Capital Wasteland. Being set inside of an aircraft carrier, it makes sense that it would be the biggest. Rivet City is the biggest supplier of edible food throughout the Capital Wasteland, as well.
The scientists behind Project Purity also set up a base in Rivet City, making it one of the biggest scientific centers in the wasteland. The Brotherhood of Steel also became a trading partner of Rivet City, making it even more powerful.
4 Home To Several Important American Documents
There is a man in Rivet City named Abraham Washington who collects important American documents. He runs the Capitol Preservation Society, which maintains a history of the United States. The collection also has an intact P-51 Mustang hanging from the roof.
Washington's collection of documents include the Bill of Rights, Monroe Doctrine, Gettysburg Address, U.S. Constitution, and many others. The player is also tasked with helping find the Declaration of Independence and Magna Carta, helping Washington complete his collection.
3 Danse Owned A Junk Stand In Rivet City
Danse is a potential companion in Fallout 4. He is a member of the Brotherhood of Steel and can first be found inside of the Cambridge Police Station. Players can discover that Danse once lived in Rivet City.
Danse owned a junk stand in Rivet City before joining the Brotherhood of Steel. The Brotherhood of Steel had a recruitment drive in Rivet City, causing Danse and his friend Cutler to join.
2 Founded By Pinkerton
Horace Pinkerton can be found in the bow of Rivet City in self-exile. When talked to, Pinkerton will say he led the remnants of the Naval Research Institute to the aircraft carrier that became Rivet City. Pinkerton is the one behind the settlement's name, and he founded the Rivet City Council.
The population started to grow, and the settlement became as big as it did. When Dr. Li came to Rivet City, Pinkerton's science team abandoned him, and he was kicked off the Rivet City Council.
1 Citizens Prone To 'Red Lung'
It should be expected that an old aircraft carrier might have some health threats. The ship is rusting, causing citizens to breathe in rust particles. The rust also causes citizens to get tetanus infections.
The citizens of Rivet City call this sickness the '"Red Lung." While the player is not able to be infected with this, it is interesting to hear about a sickness from the settlement. Despite being one of the most advanced settlements in the Capital Wasteland, it seems they cannot escape disease.
