Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a New Vegas thread

Plan on doing a survival based Legion run, gonna play on hardcore too. Never used the survival skill, anyone got any tips? Also gonna use melee weapons.

>>380561094
Hack yourself some throwing knives and axes if you want to go full melee. That way, you don't have to spend points on guns. You'll probably get raeped at long range though

give roleplaying suggestions for a black widow Courier plz

How the fuck is this thread always up and not moved or deleted? I'm just generally fucking curious, this is /v/, not /vg/.

>>380562518
Because you haven't killed yourself yet.

>>380561975
The Skirmisher mod is pretty good if you plan on using throwing weapons. It lets you craft them, craft special ones and adds a few perks.

>>380562602
I'm serious. It's a repeating thread based on a game in a series. Every time I check the catalog it's here.

>>380562713
I'm serious too
If you can't stand video games on the video game board, you should kill yourself.

>>380562518
Because /vg/ is different from here. The place is filled with tripfags and is mostly waifu shit for FO4. And a classic fallout general always eventually dies over there

>>380562273
Why doesn't he look like that in game at all?

>>380562774
I appreciate that it's a video game thread but this is the entire reason /vg/ was created, so threads can have a stable environment to be created and recreated, usually with a community-sourced collection of resources to answer basic questions.

I haven't played in years. Did a couple playthroughs on release. I loved dead money, didn't play the other dlcs.

How do I make NV interesting again? I know /v/ has a hardon for it (maybe just because it's not FO3) but it feels just as repetitive and bland as any post-morrowind bethesda game.

Ultimately what you need to do is write a build and characterization for your courier on a stickynote. Put that shit on your monitor. Whatever you do, follow that fucking sticky note.

Recede from actual life altogether

>>380564573
There's the roll guide around somewhere. Also on /fog/ they have a really autistic list of builds. My current run-through I'm doing a master hunter type character who seeks out jobs based on how dangerous the prey is.

>>380563329
Probably by playing the other dlcs. Dead money was probably the worst gameplay wise, with lonesome road as a close second even though the story was solid.

Get chances knife early by running to the hill to the left of the path and dropping down on the grave.

Cannibal will trivialize survival mode, especially on a legion play through where you can travel to a ranger station and slaughter the people there and come back when they re spawn, so it can be good to take it

Personally I felt that Elijah chimping out and nuking your collar when you to explore as well as the cloud tick damage was more than boring, it was frustrating.

Lonesome road was boring, but no more than regular fallout combat.

Overall I agree DM was the better dlc overall, the gameplay was just disgustingly bad

Yeah it's been a while, I thought the radios were Elijah because they make your collar go off. But the same idea

Something I noticed in OWB was that Elijah, Ulysses and Christine all seem to talk basically the same. They don't use "I" and they rarely use articles. "Went to them. Told them don't know history. Shame. Think he spotted me. Walking suits brought me. Don't know why. Tinkered with collars. Getting headaches... damn mentats." It doesn't mater if it is text or an audiolog, they always talk like this.

Its a mocking gesture i think. The video description basically says "its the fallout anniversary but bethesda doesn't release good fallout material so we did. Also fuck E3 and AAA devs." Should have gone Lonestar or Jingle jangle for the song.

none.
>good locations for loot
Nevada Outpost, Goodsprings, Old ranger stations, Nipton. The area around Primm and Jacobstown still has a lot of Broc Flowers and Xander root. You can beeline to black mountain for a powerarmor at the centaur pit barely any place you can go where there are no hostiles you'd have to sneak or fight through it.

I recommend a sneak run with melee or gun. You can find a silenced .22 in Goodsprings in the general store and you can pretty much kill human NPCs in one hit.

>>380567370
Just hunt down the fiends, they tend to carry energy weapons with enough ammo for some reason. You could also try the Khan armory at Red Rock if you're accepted by them.

>>380567370
>>380567968
Also the NCR Quartermaster at Hoover usually has quite a few and Cliff Briscoe sometimes.

>>380571919
So is it not plausible at least for them to use armor imitating the Roman Legion? Not a Legion player, genuinely asking.

>>380571919
When Caesar was in the Followers he memed himself on rome hard and modeled his empire after it. He even says as much going on to state something like "i modeled my tactics of tribal conquest and assimilation after rome, though we've had to expand a bit faster" or something.

I just did that in my last playthrough as well.
Somehow I expected it to work differently than turning everyone who dies near me into a plasma grenade. Killed myself too many times because of that perk.

The perk still caused some nice moments where I'd sneak crit a guy from afar and watch his buddy who was next to him go flying into the air.

>>380572096
They're already imitating Roman armor with what they can salvage. CNR makes things look too nice, rather than the Mad Max aesthetic the Legion is supposed to have.
>>380572101
He modeled the culture and military tactics after the Roman Empire, but has a dictatorship as opposed to a republic. The NCR is much closer to Rome before the fall (stretched too thin, relying on poorly trained soldiers and hired mercs for conquest, economy doing poorly).

>>380572184
Ok thanks, that's the one I was eyeing up.

>>380571770
He might draw historical parallels between Caesar crossing the Rubicon and his own crossing of the Colorado but that's where the historical re-enactment ends.

The Legion acts more like the Mongolian horde under Genghis Khan than it does the Romans. Edward Sallow chose Rome as his base because he found some Roman history books, admired some of the things they did and knew that in a place where people were so backwards they barely spoke English anymore, Rome would be so alien that he could claim it as his own invention and impress the tribals with his sudden "creation" of a whole language and military structure

Okay so I've been replaying the game and I've definitely done all the DLCs before but now it's not letting me access any of them?
Like Steam took them away from me? Is that a thing?
I really don't want to rebuy them and it's almost killing my passion to even keep playing

>>380572459
You can literally just download the .esp files for the DLCs and place them in the game's "Data" folder.

>>380572459
Only way I can imagine that happening is if a mod you're using is delaying the DLC. Have you tried going to any of the areas to start them? Even if the don't show up in your radio, you might be able to still initiate them.

>>380572038
You don't. If you want get Project Nevada and tweak damage from there.

>>380572428
Doesn't work with DUST as far as I now every other gameplay and quest mod works just fine

>>380572361
Okay, but I never mentioned the republic. imperial rome under Augustus was still rome and is clearly what Caesar is emulating. I only mentioned that Caesar was clearly inspired by Roman military practices in general, tribal conquest and assimilation and the process of damnatio memoriae in particular.

>>380574929
I have all the DLCs, and I normally do Hoover Dam after I feel like I'm satisfied with the playthrough, and by that point I'm usually level 50. Lanius just isn't strong enough to keep up at that point sadly, would be great if someone could do an overhaul for him, or at least prevent him from going down in a few hits.

You kind of answered your own question there.

There are a LOT of builds that rely on perks to be usable/fun. Shotguns are one of them.

Unarmed is another. The upside is, after leveling and investing an unarmed build is niegh unkillable. I can one punch deathclaws.

The only one that matters is the very last one, and since it's a charisma check you can fail that as well. And even then they'll eventually strike up a conversation again where you can try again.

And they'll keep starting that conversation every few days or so until you decide to romance them. Maccready wouldn't fucking stop for me, dude was desperate as fuck.

Agreed. Travis was simply bad. And "alpha" Travis is even worse.

Just finished the religious ghouls in rockets quest. I know Novac and everything in it is straight up FO3 material, but what exactly was the whole drama about? Rabid ghouls are set up to basically direct you straight into the top floor if you try to sneak in from the back, you can kill all the nightkin by pickpocketing dynamite onto them or laying a bunch of mines along their path, and both fetch jobs are you using a convenient shortcut to travel to locations with fast travel markers and pick up a single weightless object there.

Independent: Courier gets bored with the governing and sets the securitrons to exterminate every raider they encounter and keep people from killing each other. Settlements evolve at their own pace while remaining independent under constant threat of death by robot if they attempt any form of aggression against other factions. Courier leaves Nevada to explore the wasteland for the rest of their days.

Properly hangs around for a bit then leaves in a NCR ending with his shitty medal.

Likely becomes a agent for the legion, not officially being a part of it so Caesar can send him to deal with shit the legionaries can't but still a part of the inner circle with Vulpes and Lanius.

Independent properly stays to ensure thinks go smoothly, maybe stays around and claims the strip for himself or decides to go wandering again.

The House ending I imagine he can do what he wants for the most part, with House giving him whatever he wants. Could either spend most days relaxing in his suite, or heading out into the mojave to do whatever and House calls him back when a job comes up.

Honestly the House ending sounds the best for the courier themselves. Legion as well, as I imagine Caesar would give you plenty of rewards for your service.

>>380574610
No, but he is still one of the strongest NPCs. He can take 2 veteran rangers.

He needs a better weapon and stagger and knockdown immunity/resistance. That would go a long way to making him a lot tougher. His movement speed is ridiculous.

>Honestly the House ending sounds the best for the courier themselves. Legion as well, as I imagine Caesar would give you plenty of rewards for your service.
The Legion does put your goddamned face in a coin. Even if you're a woman. For all the betrayals they like to perpetrate, the Legion does know how to reward someone they respect.

Mojave express. Ulysses mentions you doing courier jobs out at New Reno and Vault City as well.

But again, Ulysses doesn't exactly seem sane when you meet him, so who knows.

Which ending guarantees Vegas's survival when the Tunnelers inevitably invade?

Wow, what a great reward. Really compares to living like royalty with House.

I miss it sometimes, but I did explore the wasteland all I could. Maybe if I'd try some of the large overhaul mods like this mod
http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/46907/?

Anyone ever try this mod? Want something to make helping a bit harder for hardcore, instead of just using a doctors bag and that's it.

That's a different kind of honor. People generations from now will be able to see you and know you did a great service to the Legion. With House you just become another rich asshole living in his ivory tower.

Unless someone else appears and gets put on the coin and you get forgotten

Being remembered forever is pretty sweet. Imagine if you killed all terrorists or something and your achievement was applauded forever. Kids singing songs about you, yearly remembrance ceremonies, all that jazz.

That's not how that works. Faces in coins don't get replaced by the next guy who does something great. They just make a new coin.
