CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 ...for no one ever enters the ivault, and no one ever leaves... nice security though... fuck yea, we should ask psy to give us a ifallout site or something... even if it's just us three, and the occasional lone wanderer... so, the sierra madre, new caanan/zion national park, the big empty, and the divide for the DLC's... i wonder if they'll pull a mothership zeta and throw a 5th add-on into the mix due to the well received sales from the first 4... ha, i was asking for that months ago, lol ...@synch... i've heard of a trick that has worked before... lure the vipers towards the legion/NCR skirmish and kill them down there...... enemies usually respawn where they die... give that a shot... i've tried that trick with the bark scorpions in nipton, they no longer spawn where they can spot me, they're doing their own thing now in the back of the trailer area... and i suggest doing the legion route... however, if you want to mix it up, do what i am thinking about doing next... playing the game normal, yet add to your survival skills instead of medicine for healing... basically in hardcore mode, you have to eat sleep and drink when the meters get low... in normal i do believe you can still use desert salads in the same way as you can in hardcore, only you don't satisfy the non-existent hunger meter... but if you're going for the hardcore trophy, then you have to at least do it once... i had fun playing as a cannibal ... food is not that much of an issue, nor is sleep... it's water that can be the issue... gotta stay stocked, take the "rat pack" perk... it was meant for hardcore mode... but you still need to take the legion route, no matter how you want to do it... i did it as a female, but i would suggest doing it as a male... i wasn't allowed in the arena because i was a baby machine ... but none of those men ever tried to call me that... i am as legendary as the burned man... ---------- got some more photos too... i actually fired up my fallout 3 game because i wanted to see some good 'ol memories... here's my evil black brotha named lucifer and his slave bitch... this is not a picture of omega, but i have snapped a few of his... i just liked how i "positioned" cherry on the bed... if anyone ever recalls, i took a pic of her in another similar photo on the ground (click here)... she lies dead in omega's residence, the tepid sewers, forever looking like his junkie hooker friend... i need to find a way to do that in new vegas, but there aren't any temporary followers... someone tell me i am wrong ?? i can't believe i haven't ever snapped a photo of my good natured savior of the DC wasteland, valentine... well, there she is ...

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 ED-Ecated - Found all of ED-E's upgrades in the Divide really?? how is that going to work?? what if he isn't around anymore?? i tell you what though, it makes me think that... ...the enclave are somehow linked to this add-on... I'm guessing it's somewhere between Veronica's upgrade from Dead Money and the personality tapes from OWB. And if he's not around anymore, then I guess you just can't do it. As for the other thing, I kind of get that vibe, too. We'll find out soon, I expect a trailer next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Synch 476 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 dead money upgrades and personality tapes from OWB?? i am not following... There's a ton of those in OWB. Veronica gets upgraded when you tell her about Elijah. You can go one of two ways, I went for her upgrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Massacre 7646 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 Right. My guess is that there are Enclave holotapes scattered all over the Divide, and each one provides a small upgrade, which adds up to massive upgrades when you have them all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 personality tapes in OWB?? that i still don't understand, fill me in, i am sure it's something obvious... and yes, now i remember the perk you unlock after dead money... perhaps ED-E's unlocks the same way, or perhaps they are holotapes that automatically update ED-E when you talk to him, similar to what happened to the friends in the sink... EDIT: ohh wait, you're talking about the sink personality holotapes ... now i feel dumb... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted August 14, 2011 found that scorpion pit you mentioned, synch... i was walking around for a bit popping scorpions, wondering what the hell i was looking for... and just like that i spot the plane as it emerged through the blowing sand, and followed the desert south and then it hit me, it was a hole in the ground, not a cave entrance ... another queen, although one thrown sneak attack took most of her health... then about 8 shotgun blasts finished off the rest of the nest... i could of used a sniper shot, but i thought i'd see how much damage a poisoned spear could inflict from a sneak position... the queen dropped a few seconds after the initial blow... that was pretty sweet ... -------------- and after that i started a new character that i am pretty sure won't do all that much... she's a chinese girl named sakura, who has good science, energy skills, intelligence, perception and agility... she's going to be a follower... once she reaches that point, i might not do all the much... i just wanted to create a filler file since i don't want to go any further with bones when there's nothing to really do but take out legion hit squads... and i want to save the last two perk levels for potential new perks from lonesome road (depending on usefulness)... same thing applies for delilah... she's a mere hundred XP from level 42, a new level + perk... i'll save it for LR... and once again after freeing deputy beagle from the convicts in the bison steve, i find him doing this in the vikki & vance casino, in the same room, in the same goddamn spot, in this photo i took with delilah some many many many many game hours ago...

Synch 476 Report post Posted August 14, 2011 i could of used a sniper shot, but i thought i'd see how much damage a poisoned spear could inflict from a sneak position... the queen dropped a few seconds after the initial blow... that was pretty sweet ... Poisons in the game are highly under rated IMHO. Plus you build up the thrown weapon skills & perks. Combining sneak with Mother Darkness, Silver Sting, or Tremble, is usually 1 shot kill on anything. Maybe that's just for my character at max sneak. There's nothing like a poison Tomahawk to the face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted August 14, 2011 it was silver sting, my two characters aren't skilled enough to create mother darkness... i use poisons very rarely, but it's fun to tinker around with them every now and then... i am bringing a few poisons to lonesome road since i get this feeling there's going to be some really tough encounters, and i could use any advantage they give me... seriously, i am rolling into lonesome road with about 150 lbs of equipment on bones... maybe even more since i am considering bringing annabelle... i am coming prepared this time with lots of options, inlcuding two armor options, and a scrap medium armor for repairs... i didn't bring many options with me to old world blues... and delilah always has the benefit of going second, so i always know what to bring for her...

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted August 14, 2011 My stealth character is the only one who uses poisons. He rocks a silenced sniper rifle, an anti-materiel rifle for those extra long-range shots where silence doesn't matter, and Chance's knife and a minimum of twenty throwing knives, always coated with poison. He's sporting the assassin suit and ranger combat helmet, though I'll be replacing the helmet with the hazmat helmet once I run him through OWB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted August 15, 2011 They turn up at Mick & Ralph's from time to time, so on that character, I just camped in Freeside for a few days until I got a decent supply together. Also, for the sake of realism, I have a mod that lets you pick your thrown weapons back up, because it's bullshit you can't do it already. I mean, they added a reloading bench so you could re-use your ammo, but they couldn't let you pull your knife back out of that Fiend's head? Fuck that.

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted August 15, 2011 hmm, i need to scout more for those... but i never really saw them in my game... i looked at times, but never found them... there's isn't a stash of them somewhere for easy pickens? i have to wait until someone has them for sale??

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted August 15, 2011 As far as I know, they don't spawn anywhere. They're extremely rare, and after you buy them from Mick & Ralph's, they don't show up anywhere else. I would've run out a long time ago if I didn't have that mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
