  1. Yep, we know Cinder. I only use the <> and so on if I got the first 3 wrong. I can figure out the password usually quicker than erasing all the duds. Usually ~15 seconds.

     

    Vendors replenish after 3 days. Have you tried to waiting for days? The place I used to stash is the appt in Novac.

     

    Yea everyone instantly knows when shit happens, like when Im hidden/invisible, walk by someone and they say "Thats the guy who killed Caesar" even though im still hidden. Its all weird, as Im still vilified by powder gangers but they are green to me. Weird.

     

    Upgrade on location of that gun Emsley. Sunset Sarsaparilla factory is almost exactly west of NewVegas. Still in city streets though. Soon as you enter the main door, take immediate right door, kinda straight to the room with the collapsed roof. Go up to 2nd floor. Follow hall down on second floor and you know the rest.

  2. Navigation needs tweaking, I do not mind the flat interface, as opposed to stuff further on the list showing up in a skew angle, giving it depth.

     

    I do mind however, the sterile white. WTF! On top of that the angles of the blades/menus are 90 degrees. It just feels and looks like shit.

     

    The need to update it with some options to customize the blades. Shapes and textures/colors:gradients. That is NOT too much to ask. It is not hard at all and would take NO time to get that implemented.

  3. Im drained. I just ranted on the Xbox forum and I havnt the motivation to type all my issues.

     

    It just plain sucks. Arid sterile white blades with NO options to customize it. Annoying clackity sounds while navigating. Flat panels with no depth... I havent checked netflix but I think I will be even more disappointed than I already am.

     

    Why the FUCK would they not have the ability to customize the blades? Why did they ever remove that option. They had brushed aluminum and all sorts of other textures. Now... just white. Not even gray scale edges... white... just like this fucking box Im typing into right now.

     

    What the fuck. Someone needs to be fired.

     

    They better patch this bullshit with options. Damn it...

  4. Sunset Sarsaparilla factory. S/W of New Vegas. Go through the front door, through the double doors and take a right. Another right then immediate left, you come to a room with the ceiling caved in, in the center of the room. Climb this rubble and travel south I believe to a room with a small hole in the floor. Easily identifiable by a safe right next to the hole. Anyway, drop down, go through the door and there is a dead dude holding the gun.

     

    Grabbing the holodisk is what finishes a quest so in grabbing it, you may brake the quest. Just sayin'

  5. Well this game definitely makes it to where you cant have everything. I hate the notion of not putting points into guns, but next playthrough I will either focus on Energy or melee.

     

    Energy has shit like Corona, add damage and crit bonus, stuff like that. Ammo is scarce, but if your good at caravan and can keep the vendor stocked with supplies (No-Vac Dinosaur dude) he should be able to replenish his funds, which means he will have enough to bet high. He still has the same old crap I sold him a week ago though... not sure how that works. Or you can collect ant nectar and other stuff that sells high, rest 3 days, then repeat. But with the funds you can keep supplied.

     

    Next playthrough I will get my repair to 90 so I can get that one perk where you can repair anything with something similar. The weapons I like to use are not very common... at all. Anti material rifle, some unique plasma rifle I got, shoots 3 shots... fucking destroys, Assault shotgun or whatever its called. That'll work great. Ill have survival on my hardcore playthrough for sure.

     

    I beat it and am wrapping up loose ends (achievements) Found the "pew pew" laser gun. Thing is pretty strong for something you can just go and get very easily. Ill definitely grab it right off the bat on my next play. Also, where you get it there are a bunch of boxes with an average of 150 caps in each. That'll be a huge help at the beginning of the game.

     

    I said earlier I randomly choose passwords during hacking then back out if im wrong, but Ive gotten pretty good at it and its quicker just figuring it out on the spot. Best tip, look at the suffixes. ing and stuff like that. If a word with ING as the suffix has less than 3 correct, obviously the word wont end with that suffix. If its 3 or more correct is safe to assume your on the right track. Look at the letters of corresponding words and go from there. Usually you should get the password by the 3rd try.

  6. Well, dog parks are perfect but I dont know how common they are around you. Here in the states, there are countless numbers.

     

    Solidius does make a point. If you act like this, it is safe to assume this is a factor in why you havnt one now. You have to take life by the horns and wrestle it to the ground. LOL Find a girl who likes that shit and your set!

     

    But really, having a girl appear out of no-where is not likely, you at least have to put some effort in. Be it being at the right place at the right time, actively looking or whatever. Equivalent exchange.

     

    Teach it tricks. Look up how if you need to, but a puppy with a few tricks will surely help.

     

    But walking a puppy in the cold... you may not find so many girls in that weather, but Im not from around there. Work it out

     

    Break a leg.

  7. Well you were saying "putting thought" into your character. I recommend energy weapons. There are alot of perks, even one that you unlock after you do x ammt of damage over time. I say, that energy weapons got got the unfair advantage in this game.

     

    I hit 30. I hit over 90 hours. I hit hard. Just for kicks, ED-E carries an assortment of weapons that I can just grab at any time. Missile launcher, gatling gun, Gauss Rifle, Flame thrower, grenade machinegun you name it. Veronica runs around with a ballistic fist and I just blast everything in sight.

  8. Gatling Laser rapes... but devours your ammo. It only seems viable if you have a ton of dudes you just wanna wash over. Using a grenade rifle is much more cost effective though. Even if you dont put points into explosives.

     

    Speaking of which, I did. It sounds like a waist of time but I absolutely destroy with explosives. I once got a sneak crit with my uber grenade rifle and 4 people blew to bits. Arms and legs everywhere. I didnt get the extra range perk but whatever. Next playthrough is going to be better, Energy weapon perks are sick, as well as melee perks.

  9. First was 2 on 2? Damn... shows how old that game is... and how old Im getting for forgetting.

     

    Then pick 3 of the same character.

    LOL

     

    Yea the only way I can see 1 on 3 and working, is if they borrowed the SNK vs Cap system, and thats not gonna happen... if it did, that'd be bad ass.

  10. I could be wrong, but I hear there are 2 ways to get the training. I believe the other one may be from the previous Elder but I have no idea, this is off the top of my head.

     

    Yea the game is bugged out. I had to turn my shit off and go to work... In 3 hours yesterday I had issues like corrupted a save file, speech challenge issue while completing Veronicas quest, and also her not moving: she just stood there. Old repeat bugs from 3, like pip boy screen that glows neon green so you cant see it, getting stuck in vats, and not being able to target the head.

     

    Time to get back on it. I have an entire Vault filled with Fiends that need to be exterminated... again. Damn save file. This time Im repairing the Gatling Laser to see how quick this can be done. With the mods its pretty sweet.

  11. Call me whack, but i never played fall out, what's it about? i've seen videos of it on youtube and it's just bizarre, people get nuked and are still alive yet toasted?

    A quick explanation.

     

    Obviously a 1st/3rd person shooter that is based on RPG skills. You can pick up a gun but if your skill sucks so does your damage and ability to hit the target. It has quests that often rely on particular skills, not to complete the quest, but get the most out of it. For instance having a high speech allows for negotiation or talking someone into/out of something and so on.

     

    The game is like a 50's style futuristic setting. As in imagine what people in the 50's thought the future would look like. Anyway, it post apocalyptic and the world is fucked. There were bunkers known as vaults and instead of safe havens, most were sick experiments gone wrong. The story and setting often explore the human condition and how others perceive what is right/wrong or how far someone will go, good or bad.

     

    In this setting you can do whatever it is you wish. Often quests give you options to go one way or another. Some are harder decisions, like seal the reactor core and save a farm (which is hard to maintain in this world) or the opposite and save a group of people who are trapped in the reactor core, irrevocably damaging the crops.

     

    Anyway, yea... There are all types of things going on, weird people. You sound like you saw a goul. They are those who were twisted by radiation and look like zombies. Then there are supermutants, which were created. Then you have a bunch of people, either vault dwellers or tribals... or anything in between. Plenty of factions, all vieing for what little is left of the wasteland. Be it an untainted water supply or a damn that generates energy.

     

    Good fun if you ask me.

  12. Yea Id like to have a nice timepiece. I first had this idea when I saw a steam punk looking job in a knife magazine like 15 years ago or so. It had 4 rods with springs on it, sticking up around the edge. They didnt do anything, just looked awesome. Cant find a pic of it, cant track it down. While looking for it I came across these. The first one does look strange but I somehow like it.

     

    But I like the one in the video much better... and its much much cheaper. Still way too expensive though. I want a badass watch. I dont need a watch as I said, but I want it to be like these.

  13. I always hack. I sometimes dont even pay attn to the letters that are correct, Ill hit 3 random them back out, go back in and try again. Beats cracking the password. If I am right, its letters in their place, not overall, that is correct.

     

    Emsley, your lockpick is -2 probably because of the INT stat lowered by one. Sounds like you have armor or a helmet that has a -1 penalty. Perhaps your head is crippled and you didnt realize. The only other thing I can think of is maybe you are on hardcore and you need to sleep or eat/drink or something. Go to your status and check effects, its on the screen that shows your different limbs, but two options down: "EFF"

     

    As for ammo, yea early on ammo is a bitch. If you have a high enough repair, you can brake down ammo you dont use to make ammo you do use. Or perhaps you can sleep or wait for 3 days and respawn human enemies and take their stuff all over again. I didnt use my 10 mil for the first few hours because no enemies were using that calibre.

     

    Oh, I had a high Science skill and verbally hacked the securitron. I hear people saying if you get a passport from the kings, you may get that locked out glitch thingy.

     

    I have noticed something very hilarious. There are TWO Supermutants who go by female names I have come across. Both are names of ex-girlfriends that absolutely fucked me over. Come on guys, you know that shit is awesome sauce. Perhaps I will find some female gouls to finish my fucked up girlfriend list.

  14. Console and I highly recommend having multiple saves. I have 5 I cycle. Once I got a message some NCR guy died, I have no idea who or where he was. I loaded and he didnt die again. I looked up the name and I wasnt far from where he was, although when I checked on him after the reload, I couldnt find him.

     

    I heard alot of people get locked out of vegas, but apparently someone said you can kill a securitron and take his key. As to if this is true or creates a problem, I dont know.

     

    The constant issues I deal with are the game freezing. It has froze at least 10 times on me. And often the game takes FOREVER to load a new area, be it going through a door or quick travel. Along with this is worse than frame rate issues, its more like really bad lag. I gotta save and exit to the dashboard to fix that.
