I'd rather giant rad scorpions to a family of death claws anyday :pac:

The beautiful thing is if you stand on a rock most of the time they can't get to you and will go scampering off . The negative side is getting stung and not having any anti-venom on you .

Which ever way you decide to go save often and if you bring companions change there tactics so they won't start running and gunning at everything they see

One gripe I had with the game was that I never used any other companion really except booth. I didnt really feel the need as he was so friggen awesome and powerful.

Agreed.

By the way, If I give Boone a AM Rifle, will he run out of special ammo for it?

Getting sick of force reseting my ps3.

5 crashes in an hour, Hoover Dam is a mess.

Great game but this is an absolute joke.

Yes, unlimited ammo only works for their own weapons.

Sephiroth_dude · 10-01-2011 06:44PM

Are there any super mutants in this game?I have'nt come across any yet only knightkin and I only came across them while doing the come fly with me quest.

AlmightyCushion · 10-01-2011 06:47PM

Yeah I've met a good few.

Black mountain is full of them as is jacobstown

There's one or two caves that have them too - I can't remember which though and the REPCONN test facility.. or the headquarters

Dont think he will run out of special ammo for it, they seem to go on regardless of ammo so

On the whole Deathclaw front...

I used to get my ass handed to me every time I came across one but after a few levels & the right sniper perks I can take them out with a single sneak critical sniped shot to the head using the gobi sniper rifle. If you dont have the gobi, a regular sniper rifle will work just as well.

Also instead of using Boone as your companion try using ED-E - his companion perk allows you to detect enemies at crazy long range - perfect for super long range sniping.

Loving this game

You can have both actually . Ed-e and Rex can't go together but they can go with any other companion . having ed-e and Boone together is perfect for sniping. Crazy long range perception and easy to hit distant targets

Anyone finish 'Dead Money' ?

Ending eludes to future dlc maybe

at some where called the great divide, involving a fight with another courier under an old flag

I did read that

the other courier was supposed to be in new vegas as a companion but was cut , and actually appears on the cards in the limited edition. He rescued Christine from dead money from a place called big empty.

I'd give 'Dead Money' a 5/10 over all. Better than Mothership Zeta but not as good as point look out / the pitt / broken steal. Your not missing much by not playing it other than the possible back story for future content, and even that is not very significant.

As well as adding new quests to the game,Does it add new locations?

No Yes but it's more like point lookout and the pitt etc. Follow a radio signal and you then get transported to a self contained area that you can't leave till the quests are done and can't re-enter once you leave.

Also there is not much there that's worth having in terms of loot, except

37 gold bars worth 10k each but weigh 35lbs each :eek:

Lucky for me I took the perk allowing fast travel while over burdened

Oh and a level cap of 35.

Have you found Vault 22 yet? There's a glitch where if you go somewhere in there (can't remember where, but I'm sure someone will confirm) whoever your companion is at the time will appear them. Sometimes they're walking back to wherever you got them first.

Yes if you use the elevator in vault 22 they appear, if it's boon wait for 24 hours a few times then try for him in novak at his house.

I finally found the dope just outside nipton.

WolfForager · 13-01-2011 12:24AM

He's been lost for me for a good 2 months now.

ironictoaster · 13-01-2011 12:26AM

I'm doing that quest for the garrets in freeside where I got to recruit to escorts to work at their business. I'm currently trying to recruit a sexbot, but I accidentally killed Mick and Ralph so I can't buy a holotape for the sexbot.

Is there anyway way to get past this without a science skill of 50....It will take me forever to get it up to 50.

How many quests have people not been able to complete because of bugs?

I count around 5.

For the Van Graffs, I was trying to bring Cassy to them for their quest to kill her and Simon at the front door of silver rush became hostile and that was the end of that.

Boone massacred some legion at Nipton so I lost a quest or two there as well (not a bug I grant you)

One of the irradiated dogtags at Searchlights does not appear on the floor (but is on the local map) I assume it has floted underground.

There are probably more as well but the one that really annoys me is EDE.

I left him on his own for too long so he automatically returned to Primm - now he is hostile to everyone when I go back ans starts murdering the people of Primm and me (theres usually enough of them to kill him tho). I have read it may be possible to fix this by using the ranger takedown on him in Primm and then quickly stealthboying yourself and then trying to talk to him when he gets up but I haven't tried yet.

Has anyone had or solved the EDE bug?

blaze1 · 13-01-2011 03:49PM

yeah i had that... i just fast traveled and that sorted it

....dude....what the hell was wrong with the holo rifle . combine the massive base damage the splash damage(2 deathclaws at once thankyou very much) plus a lingering "holo" damage bonus the thing is unreal . id say the only downside is the vats bug where you'l occasionally get stuck
