Massacre 7646 Report post Posted July 30, 2013 You can, you just don't have backup if you ignore the other factions. I had a character who ignored everyone and took over the dam alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiO 4730 Report post Posted July 30, 2013 if its your first play through you might as well do all the quests you can tho unless you love the game a lot and figure ur gonna play it again and again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 it is meant to be played how you want to play it... if he wants to fuck everyone over, then so be it... but you miss out on a lot of important experience to level your character, and a ton of back story to tie into your story... i fired up my guy who's waiting to rule vegas, but i just helped the omerta's with their plans to overrun the strip, so i am thinking this guy just doesn't give a fuck as long as he gets paid and rules the mojave... pure evil independent... 'cyrus' the damn virus.... however, now i want to create a gambling courier who planned on retiring from the courier service after this last one... he/she plans to spend their time in new vegas gambling, a lot... hopefully i can reach a point where they start to get bored and branch out of the strip once the money dries up... but they're going to be someone with a high skill in luck so i can sit at the tables all day, i am gonna live the tourist/adventurer life me thinks ...

DiO 4730 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 Dam bones you really get into a backstory with ur character eh? I usually just play appropriate for whatever faction im in, and to be an asshole or not trying to be evil not but i have good karma from killing ghouls other shit. cant go randomly killing people here and there in towns. fucks up too many quests. and user made quests start at random places. i just trying stealing a lot of shit. should be evil soon. with the house route ill settle for neutral. i really wish you could continue the game after the final mission. what the fuck is this sword from? vaporizes enemies. called the rising sun found it at Yangtze Memorial. was it there cause i have wild wasteland. needed a melee skill of 80 to pick it up. or is it part of a mod? only mod i can think of it being a part of is maybe the classic weapons pack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Massacre 7646 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 The sword is from Project Nevada. Also, Dragbody, my favorite armor modder, released the Willhaven Content Pack at some point. I'd been watching for a while, then went back to Skyrim, and he released it on the 27th. Guns are meh, but I love this guy's armor. http://newvegas.nexu...m/mods/51163//? Every time I see a new armor of his, I get an idea for another character to play. Also, my sniper character uses this for close-quarters combat, kind of similar to the Rising Sun: http://newvegas.nexu...m/mods/44068//? I use the default blue blade, and the rusty retexture. Matches his armor perfectly: http://newvegas.nexu...m/mods/35130//? And I just use the regular sniper rifle for sniping. At least until I have enough caps for the Bozar from Gun Runners' Arsenal.

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 new character... details to follow later... i am nearing the 188, i literally only hit up a few locations on my way there... this character's story will begin when she wraps up the platinum chip search in vegas, her last job before she was set to give up the lifestyle for the glitz of the strip... it's her only focus, i've been avoiding everything else...

DiO 4730 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 saw that willhaven stuff dont like chests. when i get armour i buy it or get it from an enemy. might wait till its more complete but looking good. raiders wear a lot of the armour i downloaded. viper gang has some too. raw a viper gang mod that makes them bigger. probably worth a look at. love that bones is still posting cam pics. man you must love this game more than me. you seriously need to get this shit a go on PC man. playing beyond bolder done voice acting is great. same dude that made dog city denver. seems more complete. only 2 ghoul i didnt like the voice. minor characters. the rest tho so far is really good. story seems pretty cool .just starting This is from dry canyon. new area. its pretty dam big. tribal music start around this bridge. cool atmosphere. no quests in this area. not a lot of enemies. shame. i hope they eventually update it with a storyline Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Massacre 7646 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 I need to give some of these a go. Haven't tried many quest mods, and Rust Town was the only mod I've played that added a new area (no quests, last I saw). But then, all of these mods were still in progress last time I was heavily into New Vegas. Glad to see they're actually getting done. I dismissed them, assuming the modders would give up because it was so much work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 I haven't played Fallout NV as much as Skyrim, there are still quests I haven't done. I've done an NCR victory, a Legion victory, working for Mr. House... but I haven't done an independent Vegas, so I intend to do that on my next playthrough. I normally use guns rather than energy weapons, although my last character used them so I don't know what to do, i've never tried specialising in melee and unarmed combat so maybe I should give that a go. I just don't want it to detract from my other skills. Hmmm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GunSmith 2452 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 Just put in NV after a few years of not playing. Wow, I had some great fun. I forgot how incredible it was to lose yourself in the Mojave and all it has to offer. It felt so satisfying to cleanly snipe the heads off of three Fiends with three shots from a quarter-mile away. Definitely gonna be playing this more frequently. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 @DiO - duh, because i don't have a capable machine... all i got is a dying laptop... @viceman - you gotta play an unnarmed/melee character at least once... they're a lot more fun because there's a lot more weapon choices comapared to fallout 3... my evil chick delilah uses the ballistic fists as much as she uses the holorifle...it's satisfying ... @gunsmith - my chick is a strong independent black women too, but has a weakness for gambling... she's gonna be a stealthy assassin, when exploring the mojave, but that's a ways away... she's gonna spend a lot of hours early on in the strip... ---- here's a couple more images from Jasmine's journey... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GunSmith 2452 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 I gamble(d) an awful lot, too. Got myself barred from every casino in the game very early. Went on a spending spree at the Gun Runners not long after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiO 4730 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 Lol, black women Im also doing this mod as i do the others http://newvegas.nexu...m/mods/40531//? its pretty cool. adds a fuck ton of new areas to the lucky 38. Figured it would be good to do for someone doing the house storyline So far its just a lot of cap spending. DId one quest. The author said upgrade one room at a time or you will miss quests. IDK what the fuck he means. Doesnt seem like there is much. just shelling out caps a fuckin lot. Good tho, usually I just get rich from scavenging and dont buy much weapons. Gives me something to spend money on. The casino makes me a lot of money tho so its worth it. Also got this installed. Gonna take me lucky 38 earnings and open this bitch http://newvegas.nexu...om/mods/40433/? my evil (so far neutral) character is an entrepreneur. Gonna have to go back to that Casino Heist suit i posted a page back. Cant wear my suit going to my new lands quests tho. itll get ruined. ____ bones http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=589&game=Fallout:%20New%20Vegas dont need too crazy of a PC to run the game. good PCs are getting cheap these days. maybe get a second hand one. im sure theres a gamer whose upgraded and selling an old one. especially if ur other laptop is dying ull need a computer of some sort. get the fallout games of PC ull never need other games lol. Other than GTA 5 anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GunSmith 2452 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 Since I've never actually completed the main storyline, I'm at a pivotal point. What are the consequences of giving the Platinum Chip to House? What are the consequences of slackening his grip on The Strip in a murderous manner? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Santiago 64 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) All I know its kinda the same Gunny. I killed House and Benny and took the Platinum Chip and upgraded the robot police to robot army. If you didnt kill House and worked for him, he would do the same thing to upgrade. You can also choose to destroy the robots if you wish. Edited July 31, 2013 by Massacre Thats how you do the spoiler tags. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 It's all the same really, you just upgrade the securitrons one way or another beneath The Fort. One way they work for you, one way they work for House. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 I used tfc, couldn't remember the command for the hud. New Vegas' console isn't as friendly as Skyrim's; 'help' seems to bring up random shit every time I try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiO 4730 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 list http://fallout.wikia...onsole_commands tfc and tm are the only ones i use. i also do player.setscale. my current dude is a sneaking sniper. should have gave him less strength just for it to make sense but o well. made him a bit smaller. first character i made bigger. just a bit. like 1.2. current is 0.9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Massacre 7646 Report post Posted July 31, 2013 Speaking of console commands, I just had to cheat to finish Dead Money. I encountered an irreparable glitch that caused my screen to go black and and the game to freeze whenever I entered the Cantina Madrid for Put Down the Beast. I couldn't add Heist of the Centuries through the console, and had to unlock the doors with console commands so I could go back to the Mojave. Fortunately, I was nice to the crew, and still got the good ending, although there was no mention of me in the Madre vault because I didn't get to do the quest.

DiO 4730 Report post Posted August 1, 2013 you can render quests compete with console commands too couldnt imagine this game on console. theres enough game breaking glitches. usually mods and console commands fix the shit. the fuck would you do on ps3? revert to an old ass save i guess. bones, how many saves to you keep for each character ?
