Characteristics

The Chinese radio beacon will be added to your radio in a random location in the Wasteland. The signal will grow stronger as you get closer to the source of the beacon – a dead Chinese commando.

The commando carries a full set of Chinese equipment, including a Chinese pistol, Chinese officer's sword, and a dirty Chinese jumpsuit, as well as assorted medical supplies.

If you can't find the corpse, try making Dogmeat search for a weapon.

If the player uses the tclconsole command, they can go underground where they will find a ham radio labeled 'Chinese Radio Beacon' underneath the commando. The radio can be talked to like any non-player character. If interacted with, the player will hear 'Hello?' or 'Hey there' in English through the radio, to which the only reply available is 'See you later. or Time for me to go.' Upon choosing this, the player then hears 'Bye' or 'Later' in English as the dialog ends.

The message broadcast over the signal is 'bai shi' (敗 失), which is pronounced more like 'bye sir' by people for whom Chinese is a second language, or can also be perceived as 'shi bai' (失 敗), both of which mean losing and failing.

Notes

  • If the dead Chinese commando spawns at a location such as Super-Duper Mart with raiders present, the raiders will loot the commando's body of most or all weapons but leave the dirty Chinese jumpsuit behind. If the commando spawns at a raider location, search the raiders first if you want the commando's weapons, which are in much better repair than normal raider weapons.
