Someone in one of the other Fallout threads asked if it was possible to kill Ulysses before he raises the missile and turns around near the end of Lonesome Road.

I can confirm that it's possible, but I had to jack up the critical chance as high as I could and used stealth. I used Christine's sniper rifle, marked Beast face helmet, and True Police Stories magazine, which all increases critical chance levels. I also used hollow point .308, a stealth boy, one shot of Steady, and some drugs to increase strength.

Crouch down, stay hidden, and walk to the middle of the walkway. 2 to 3 shots in VATS, and he's down before he starts up his helper ED-Es.

Does this actually affect anything? Or does the game continue like normal afterwards?

Some of it continues like normal. After Ulysses dies, if you time it right, the helper ED-Es won't show up. After that, the invasion of the marked men will happen like usual, followed by redirecting the nukes or stopping the launch.

Lonesome Road spoilers: I wonder if he says anything about meeting Graham. He's really quite a pleasant stalker once you get to know him. :3:

He does. He basically says he's seen him, but did nothing, and to leave him be if you find him.

Gamestop is selling the download version of Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition for $10.19. This requires the Gamestop App, yet still needs Steam to activate. :confused:
