A slot machine or simply slots is a casino gambling machine with three or more reels which spin when a button is pushed. Slot machines are also known as one-armed bandits because they were originally operated by a lever on the side of the machine (the one arm) instead of a button on the front panel, and because of their ability to leave the gamer penniless. They appear in Fallout, Fallout 2.

There are 6 locations in the game where gambling is available:

• Sierra Madre Casino (Dead Money)
• Vikki and Vance Casino*

*Note that there is no gambling in the Vikki and Vance Casino until the quest My Kind of Town is completed and the player has encountered Layla and has completed A Team of Moronic Mercenaries.

Las Vegas Slot Machine Jackpots

The following gambling games are offered at all casinos (except the Ultra-Luxe, which does not offer slots):

Winnings

Notes

• The Tops also has Craps tables, but as of this time, the tables are just there for decoration, as Craps is not playable in Fallout: New Vegas
• To enable gambling at the Vikki and Vance Casino, the player must complete the quest (My Kind of Town) and a scripted encounter with Layla. See the relevant pages for details.
• The player's Luck attribute affects the probability of winning the various gambling games.
• The casinos offer rewards at various levels for players that win enough money. Eventually if the player wins enough, the casino will ban the player from gambling. See the various casino pages for the specific reward & ban levels and incentives for each casino.
• The player can earn more than the ban limit at a casino by winning a single large payoff, such as a large Slots jackpot. The player will be banned from playing further, but can still cash out their chips.
• If the player earns enough to skip a reward level, for example by getting a jackpot at Slots, all skipped rewards will not be earned. For the maximum payoff from gambling it's useful to play conservatively by playing Blackjack or even-money bets at Roulette until all the rewards have been earned, and then switching to high reward bets like single-number Roulette or trying for the big jackpots at Slots.
• When the player earns enough to get a reward, the game will kick the player out of whatever gambling mini-game they are playing. Usually a floor manager will show up in a moment to give the player a reward, but sometimes pathing issues will cause the non-player character to get stuck or delayed. If the player re-enters the gambling mini-game the reward will be lost.
• If you load a saved game while in a casino, you have to wait 60 seconds before you can start playing. If you try to start a game, you'll receive a message saying the games are taking anti-cheating measures. This can be fixed by 1) exiting the game after you've won or 2) loading the game before you exit the gambling game. in this way it's almost impossible to lose money at casinos. This can also be bypassed simply by quitting to the Main Menu and continuing your save from inside the casino. (Needs confirmation)

Betting

Bets can range from 1 - 200 chips. Chips must be purchased from the casino cashier being frequented.Note that if you are having trouble finding the cashier look for a person behind a barred counter.

Payouts

Payouts are calculated by the bet amount and the payout multiplier.

Hidden/No-Win Symbol

Players should be aware that there is an additional no-win symbol on the reels that is not mentioned by the game. Players not familiar with slot machines may wonder why the symbols do not always line up. This is due to the fact that the divider 'line' in between the mentioned symbols is also a symbol. If one of the 'lines' falls in between the indicator arrows on the slot machine then the only way for a player to win any money is with Cherry symbols.

Locations

Slots can only be played at the following locations:

• Sierra Madre CasinoDead Money

Notes

• Pre 1.4.0.525 patch slots could be the most lucrative method of gambling at the casinos. Winning a large payout could allow you to greatly exceed the limit at which the casinos will ban you from further play. The max bet of 200 caps with a 3x Orange spin would pay out 32,000 caps, several multiples greater than the banning limit at most casinos.
• As of the version 1.4.0.525 patch, slots payout about the same as roulette when betting 200 caps inside on a single number. The max bet of 75 caps with a 3x Orange spin will pay out 7,500 caps.
• Normally, as you reach certain thresholds of net winnings in a casino, you will be stopped by the Floor Manager and offered increasing rewards followed by an eventual ban. Winning a large payout, however, may cause you to skip certain rewards, or even be immediately banned. This may prevent you from receiving the High Roller's suite in The Tops.
• Reloading a save game while in a casino causes a 60-second cool-down on all the gambling stations, preventing their use. The slot machine displays the message 'The machine appears to be taking a minute to reset itself as an anti-cheating measure. Time remaining XX' (XX being the amount of time remaining, starts at 60). This is to discourage players from saving after every win and loading after any loss in order to ensure a monetary gain. On the 360, this cool-down period can be avoided by resetting the clock on the 360 to earlier than when the game was actually saved (will not work if connected to Xbox Live, because this automatically corrects the 360's internal clock).
• Ultra-Luxe has no slot machines. They are likely considered too noisy and garish for the society's premises.
  • There is a seemingly unused slot machine model in the GECK called 'ULTRASlotMachine05', implying that it might have originally been planned for the Ultra-Luxe to have slot machines. See below for a render of the Ultra-Luxe slot machine.
• Even though the in-game tip only states that Luck 'slightly' influences the outcome of gambles, it seems that its influence on slots is almost decisive. It will usually only take a dozen spins for a character with 10 Luck to hit a jackpot in any casino.

Behind the scenes

• James Garcia created the 3D model.^[1]

Bugs

• Sometimes the game will glitch and won't pay you when it has landed on three oranges. It also might pay you for landing on two and a No-Win symbol close to the other orange.
• Sometimes when attempting to play slots, an error with occur preventing you from playing. When selecting the slot machine, a Pip-Boy face will give an error stating 'Invalid Chip in CasinoData List!'
