I have seen everything there is to see in New Vegas and all its DLCs except for Gun Runners, so I'm playing through Fallout 3 again. I installed the Fellout mod to take away that loving awful Matrix green tint the whole game had and I have to say, that alone is making me enjoy the game much more than I did the first time around. New Vegas, though, is unparalleled. I'll have to wait a few years to really be sure but it might be my favorite game of all time. It's already trumped Fallout 2 as my favorite Fallout Game. I really hope Obsidian gets another shot at Fallout.

Wolfsheim posted:The safehouses own, because the majority of them are one fast travel and then a loading screen away, whereas the Lucky 38 takes forever in that you have to fast travel to Freeside's Strip entrance, enter the Strip, enter the Lucky 38, then take the elevator to your suite. That, and most of them have neat little touches. I like the shelves they have to display stuff Novac hotel room has been my home since my second playthrough.

After finishing my fourth playthrough and all the DLC, seeing everything there is to see in the game and finishing every quest, I played through the entirety of Fallout 3. So what do I do now? Well, gently caress it. I'm starting New Vegas again and I'm going to be cheap as all poo poo. First thing I did was beeline it to Freeside. I'm at level 4 and I have awesome armor, Veronica, Ed-E and a Recharger Rifle. Gonna' break the poo poo out of this game.

Corte posted:I've played plenty and am fairly thorough, I know star caps come off certain NPCs and are found in the environment. So far in 30hrs of this run I have 22, I figured bottles would fill it out, I suppose 5% of 256 is only 12.5ish. This is a pretty annoying quest to complete, why can't it have other solutions like high science to hack Festus or something! Jerusalem posted:

If you need some Fiends killed, the Courier's on it, but House has been doing this for a while and would frankly probably do a better job, and you can have the humility to acknowledge that.

I need some help. I've started my fifth playthrough and for some reason all of NCR began the game completely hostile to me. I think somebody else had this problem awhile ago. The only thing I could think of that may have caused it is I killed a bunch of legion guys sequence breaking and accidentally put one of their armors on for a second. It seems like the reputation change stuck. No console commands I know are working for me and even with an NCR armor on they still hate me. I've changed my reputation to accepted and worn NCR armor and they're still all hostile. Buggy-rear end game. Good thing it's so loving awesome. Edit: Just to be clear, my Pip-boy registers me as being accepted since I used the setreputation cheat, so it's not that. LividLiquid fucked around with this message at 04:19 on Dec 9, 2011 |

I have Boone, Willow and J.T. (popular mod) with me. Weirdly, Boone keeps killing the NCR guys forcing me to reload and run before I take another rep hit. Edit: My wife's out of town, I just finished finals, Community's almost over and I wanted to drink a lot of whiskey and play New Vegas.

Willie Tomg posted:If only there was some kind of emitter. Say of sonic waves. With plentiful ammo in OWB that could take down those enemies in a few shots. In fact, while I have everybody's attention I'd just like to remind everybody that all of the DLC enemies level with the player far more than the main game enemies do. Ghosts are loving tough if you're level 30.

Anyway, I just noticed something when launching from Steam. How in the CRAP did Fallout 3 get such a better metascore than New Vegas when it's an inferior game in literally every way.

Y'know, cash registers with pre-war money were all well and good, but pre-war registers full of bottlecaps always strained believably until today when next to our seat at a BBQ restaurant, my wife mashed a button on an old antique cash register and this happened: LividLiquid fucked around with this message at 09:41 on May 1, 2012 |

Yeah, I really don't understand why people bother arguing about who'd gently caress things up worse between House, NCR and the Legion when they can just take over themselves and not gently caress everything up.

Just found out the wife's taking me to Vegas for my 30th birthday. We go every year, but we almost never leave the hotels since we generally go in August. I want to visit some New Vegas locations. Goodsprings is obvious as it's only 40 minutes away, but that does mean we'll have to rent a car. Are there any other suggestions? Obviously I've already been to the airport.

God loving dammit, it's bad enough that Ulysses thinks that I'm with the NCR even though I've done every Yes Man quest, but I get stuck with the NCR Courier's Duster? How in the hell am I supposed to get the Vault 21 duster? Do I have to kill NCR guys or something?

OldMemes posted:You know how the Legion is going to tear itself apart without Ceasar> Courier run Vegas will do the same, except the Legion see eye to eye, and aren't loads of different, violent, armed gangs. An independant Vegas is simply not sustainable. Does Arcade think that everyone is going to hold hands and sing campsongs without Mr. House? Even Freeside, which is right outside where he lives, is a lawless slum, and that's fairly a independant settlement.

Yeah. Considering the fact that the Courier has access to anything NCR, The Brotherhood, The Followers, and The Legion can muster plus everything from the Sierra Madre, Big Mountain, and Lonesome Road, we're talking about the most powerful individual on the planet. More than the Vault Dweller, more than the Chosen One, more than The Lone Wanderer (stupid loving name since they're all lone wanderers), and more than any leader of any faction. The Courier, at his/her zenith, could destroy the planet if he/she wanted.

The DLCs are a lot less fun when your character is at a reasonable level. Dead Money in particular is almost impossible if you have no Unarmed or Melee skill even at level 40. Jump right in. Go nuts.
