I encountered a weird bug where the lockpick minigame would be replaced by an empty hacking minigame screen. Reloading a save didn't fix it. I was beginning to freak out. Thankfully, rebooting the game worked. I'm loving the game, but patches can't come soon enough.

 

[Pooya]

Felicia Day is really great in this game, hope she does more voice acting for video game in future.

I just want to point out that Vault 34... ...sucks.

I can't get Boone to follow me anymore. I used him for a while after getting him as a companion, then sent him back to Novac while I did missions around the strip. Now I want him as I

he's in his hotel room but won't leave with me. The companion wheel comes up, everything is set for him to follow, but he won't. And he keeps saying "what is it?", every 2 fucking seconds. What can I do to fix this?

Have you guys seen the bug-cheats on GT? Level 30 in a matter of minutes? Damn, kinda takes the enjoyment out of the game to do that. Hopefully this will force the devs to patch the game quicker.

Deafeats the purpose and game ruining for run 1 n 2

 

[DeVeAn]

Then don't do it, it's not like you could accidental do them and hit 30. If I really wanted to level to 30, I'd just open the console and do it.

Never said I was intending to do it. I also agree it only affects "you the player" so really no harm done. Still, there are lots of bugs and I would like them fixed for a smoother ride through the experience in the game.

 

[Celsior]

Boone says he will leave me if I kill one more NCR ranger, going to try to finsh the main story, have a save before the final push.

If use ever played fallout, u'd know about rad suits. This is like saying power armor should be spoilered.
Meh

 

[Stallion Free]

Yeah so the Powder ganger accept me into their base, everything is cool, I'm neutral with them with or without the outfit on and then I get in the admin building and these dicks with names all rage on me. Maybe I need the best powder ganger armor?

 

[Ledsen]

I'm nearing the end part of the game, well over 30 hours of play time (maybe over 40 too, lazy to check now), I think I've discovered 70-80 locations, but I haven't killed a shit ton of enemies because I'm playing mostly a speech character. I'm level 25-26 now. I think I'll probably hit 30 before I complete the game, but the level cap seems pretty tight. Obviously if I played a combat heavy character who gets to kill a lot more enemies (and higher level ones to boot) the cap can be reached much sooner.

Sounds like the mod I found that raises xp needed to level by 50% will be just about right then.

...or maybe I'll use the +100% xp needed version. Decisions, decisions.

Too easy. It's just a suit.

Anyway, any good weapon against deathclaws? The Anti-Material rifle is good, but it can be hit or miss. Sometimes I get one-hit kills while the next shot will only take off 2-3 bars of healths. I can't find many mines, either.

My favorite "weapon" against Deathclaws is the Stealth Boy. I just sneak right past and that keeps me alive to fight non-Deathclaw enemies another day. :lol

Dammit. Never thought of that.

 

[water_wendi]

Seriously thinking about restarting the game to install Arwens Realism Tweaks. Leveling way too fast, doing way too much damage with 1 ST and like 6 Melee skill, etc. Hardcore is nice but the name makes it sound like it would be grueling but its been cake so far. Time to ramp things up a notch or two i think :lol

 

[weekend_warrior]

All right, think i fixed the Boone problem. Appears to be a known glitch.

 

[NoRéN]

How exactly did you fix the problem?

So, anyone here decide to have fun with the explosives? I decided last night to invest in C4 and a detonator. Was crippling deathclaws with ease and then, the detonator stops working. Possible glitch?

I like to load myself full of chems (med-x, slasher, buffout), eat some brahmin steak, drink some whiskey and go smash them with my Ballistic Fist.

Is it effective?

Someone should make a mod for your situation in hardcore mode. As soon as all of those excessive chems wear off, your character crawls into the fetal position and gets the shakes, complaining about it being too cold, midday in the mojave.

I used the sniper and by the time to them with finesse and critical hit perks and I can kill death claws in 1-2 shots. I was like lol.

The armor I am wearing has a high DT so combined with the chems I take very little damage, if any. If I start having any trouble, I can always add some Jet, Psycho and Rebound chems, to make the fight that much easier. I love playing a drugged out junkie who smashes everything in the face. Not to mention I

Cass. I have Heartaches by the Number just started, but I've already been all over the place in the Strip. I already talked to Alice previously and all of her dialog options are still greyed out. Anything I can do?

 

[Zeliard]

Haha, I was praising the voice actor for Veronica a while back having no idea she's voiced by Felicia Day. She's great in the role. Perfect level of sass.

has anyone chosen to fight against the NCR in their playthrough? if so how difficult did it make the game for you? NCR seem to be in abundance throughout the wasteland, even moreso when compared to other factions.

The NCR and I have built up a sort of love/hate relationship throughout the game. I do things to piss them off and then regain their favor through other quests. Rinse and repeat.

I've spent much of the game in some sort of NCR armor because I have a tendency of getting on their bad side and being shot at, and NCR is pretty ubiquitous around the wasteland.

Me with the gobi sniper rifle +Boone = kill every deathclaw at the quarry without being touched.

Also just did the ending, so it seems like there is many different endings.

Did you sober up, go back and wonder what had transpired while you were "gone"?

Someone got it. No matter, I've decided to invest in the Sarcmark for future use.

My problem wasn't with the radiation, it was the feral gouls. I'm only level 12.

So for anyone near the end of the game...

Spoiler

I killed Caesar and pretty much every Legion member in his camp and now things have started to get really funky. People don't know he is dead, they keep talking about how the battle is imminent, etc. Certain quests are now just broken, like House Always Wins I, the mission for the Khans, and a couple others. I also chose to side with Yes Man and now the NCR doesnt like me, but i have a mission to talk to a hostile NCR member. Crazy stuff.

So basically, has anyone else gone down this path? Anyone know if these are just standard bugs for this game?

 

[Windom Earle]

Booted the game up with the strict intention of finally pushing on in the story. Got side-tracked with awesome side missions as always :lol

I haven't had any freezes since the patch on 360 but the random stuttering is so fucking annoying. Can't believe MS allowed to release the game like that, console 1st party certification is a joke.

 

[daoster]

For mission "You'll Know It When It Happens,"

When I talk to

, to start the mission, there doesn't seem to be any speech options other than "goodbye." Do I have to wait till a certain day or whatever?

I did the same thing as you and nothing was broken the way you are describing it.

Spoiler

I killed Caesar before I did anything for Mr. House, or killing Benny. After I killed Caesar, I even got a dialogue option when I eventually did go to Mr. House. He mentioned that killing Caesar wouldn't matter and his Legion would try to take the Damn regardless. People even mentioned in passing dialogue that I had killed Caesar and recognized that I had done that.

I was also able to do the mission for the Khans. The ones for Papa Khan and the missions for Jack and Diane. I also sided with Yes Man (myself really) and yes a quest pops up saying if you continue to work with him, the NCR wont like you anymore. I had such a high NCR rep anyways, that it didn't seem to affect anything.

I've run into a problem and was hoping for some help:

It looks like I've misplaced my human follower. I'm on 360 so I have no way of glitching the game but is there any way to find where they may be? I really just wanted to let her go so I can get a new follower. Thanks for any help.

Has there been any update on a fix for the corrupted saves on xbox. My three latest saves all have the DLC error and I have had to shelve the game until there is a fix.

There was a 360 update yesterday not sure what it fixed though.

Bee na couple days since I've been able to play. Will get in at least a 6 hour session tonight.

Do you mean that you parted ways with her? If so, she should be where you met her for the first time.

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Nope, she seems to have just stopped following me. I never gave her the command so I'm thinking she just glitched. I know there are some issues with the followers and them following. The reason it sucks is that she is still in my group but I want to recruit someone else and can't while she is still in my party.

I prefer the Gauss Rifle even after using the unique Ogobi Scout Sniper Rifle. And, if you have "Like" Brotherhood faction, you can get unlimited ammo for it. Plus, it looks more bad ass.
