I think I'm stuck and I'm not sure how to progress!
I killed Mr. House and installed Yes Man into the mainframe, and I've also killed Caesar and upgraded the securitrons in the bunker, I've also killed Benny. My quest log says I've failed all the NCR and Legion quests, and the last quest I completed is "Wild Card: You And What Army?". So now I have no quests left and no clue how to progress the main story! Should I just reload an old save? Or is there someone I can go chat up to continue?
I have a possible glitch question about the "Ed-E My Love" quest. I haven't seen this specific one anywhere so I'm wondering if it's actually a glitch.
So I got this quest up to the point where you're supposed to go through the secret door at RepConn which I found once but didn't have a high enough Repair skill to open. So I left and came back once I did, except now I don't get the prompt to open the door anymore. The Quest marker keeps taking me back to the same spot but nothing. I've tried leaving the building and coming back, re-loading the save, and even just moved on for a few hours and came back, but it's still a blank wall. Am I fucked?

I haven't found any Brotherhood corpses. I thought I had searched the rest of the building but I guess I should look again. It's weird though because the quest marker brings me right back to that wall and I've seen it mentioned elsewhere.
If you have more of the same item or very similar items, you can consume one to repair another in the menu. R ( or its corresponding button on console versions) will be highlighted in the item menu when you select the item if you can currently repair it.
With the jury-rigging perk you can use a broader selection of items to repair any given item.
I've been playing this for 30+ hours and love it. What's difficult is trying to keep different factions happy, keeping to my personal code of "honor", and keeping my karma up. I don't steal from people to get negative karma (unless I have to so I can get info I need) and I love blasting Powder Gangers and Fiends. It's just a great pleasure to try balancing the Followers, the NCR, the Brotherhood, the Great Khans, etc. Fuck the Legion, I don't side with slavers.
Really enjoying the depth of this game so far. Every time I think I've done all the missions in one location, there ends up being just a fuckton more and I get so ADD on side missions. Plus some of the side missions are super fucking heavy (
People getting raped by Fiends, getting an old NCR dude to off himself indirectly, pregnant wives being sold as slaves and husbands ending their misery from afar
). Just really intense...moreso than what I ever felt in the first game. Also had a problematic bug, but I used it to get a fuckton of caps (
sorry Contreras, but you shouldn't hold what I just sold you on your person!
).
Just a perfect follow up to Fallout 3. Different mood, love my followers (
went from quiet as fuck Boone to always talking Cass...and helping Cass finish her side mission was a guilty pleasure that didn't earn me love from the NCR...but fuck that, man. My team comes first.
) And I bet I'm nowhere near done with most of this. Fucking great game.
Just had my first 'F-U' bug. Went into a casino with Boone, who I had given a sniper rifle and a bunch of grenades. When we leave I have my stuff but all of Boone's extra kit is gone and he reverts to his default hunting rifle.
Also, every time I go back to the Lucky 38 to unload stuff I have to remember to invite a party member with me. They won't follow you out of the suite unless you tell them to.
This game is brought to a crawl with little things like this because everything requires too many steps or spending time scrolling through an over-worked Pip Boy.
How the hell you guys are playing this games campaign for 80-100 hours. I was done with my playthrough in 50 hours. I've gone to every single point on the map. Talked with anyone i can find, i've done every single quest that i can find (except for the sasparilla cap quest). I was reading the dialogs instead of listening to them. Is that it ? Did i chose an imbalanced build ? Was i too familiar with the game engine i basically ran through it ? I am geniuenly confused.
Instead of a charismatic/smart manipulator, I decided to do a Hard run with a silent gunslinger type. :lol My only concern is that I reduced Charisma to "Undertaker" in order to pump agility, perception, luck, and endurance. But, if I remember correctly, core dialog choices are open from the start and not locked behind certain skill points/attributes. I wanted to focus on a character that was resourceful with its choices and decisions rather than manipulating the factions.
First impression: I knew this game fucking rocked when the perks are truly dimensional with their benefit/negative ratio.
Does this sound like it makes sense to anyone? Am I doing something wrong? :lol
Is it ok for me to stash my spare items in random locations (e.g. a cabinet in the sheriff's house in Primm) or will my stuff disappear before I return? I can't carry everything around, but I have some items that I'd like to keep for later in the game.

Most items that you stash in random locations will disappear after a certain amount of in-game time, can't remember what it is exactly off the top of my head.
Certain stashes such as the storage items in your owned house/room, or certain "random" locations, such as the

Just a heads up, only traits behave like that (benefit + downside). Standard perks won't really come with a downside, though you will only get those once every other level.
Edit - You're basically correct about charisma, though. You don't need a certain level of charisma to make any speech-specific skill checks. There are at times checks that do require certain SPECIAL stats, but I don't recall if any of them check against charisma (for example there are a few that require certain levels of intelligence).
So Primm needed a new sheriff and I went back to the Powder Gang prison to talk to the ex sheriff there and it wouldn't even let me start a conversation with him. So I just killed him and got the other option for the quest. I didn't want to have to do that, but I didn't want to reload my save. The quest said I was supposed to talk to him, but nothing would happen, oh well.
I had already beat the game and somehow missed this early on. I believe because my LP was pretty low when I discovered the location. I have about the half the locations yet to explore still, but I picked this thing up, hit up the Legendary Deathclaw cave, 3 shots to the head, done. A beast to be sure.

I dumped my level 28 energy weapon specialist, because once you get the Gauss Rifle and Meltdown perk it's pretty much GG for anything that crosses you. Started a new character for a full pacifist run (no violence, even from companions) with Bear Grills restrictions (i.e. only eat food you've found growing in the wasteland). I've tagged Speech, Sneak and Lockpick and gone high int, agility and charisma with average perception boosted by Four-Eyes and a hat, low luck, strength and endurance.
The journey so far:
- Goodsprings:
Left them to sort out their own problems after robbing half the populace. There is no solution to Goodsprings that doesn't end in violence
- Primm:
Sneaked in and pick-pocketed a diary from the Deputy, then left him with the Powder Gangers. I didn't like him anyway.
- Mojave Outpost:
Picked up the quest to check out Nipton then started sneaking down the highway, going off road to avoid the Viper Gang.
- Nipton:
Got chased by the robot when I was looting the engineer's house but he ran right into the Legion and got blown to bits. Took the quest to spread word of the Legion's atrocities and fast-traveled back to Mojave Outpost to report in and turn in both quests.
- Novac:
Sneaked past the Viper Gang trap on the highway, arrived in Novac at night when Boone was on watch. Sneaked into Manny's room and pick-pocketed a note which allowed me to skip the whole REPCONN section.
It's awesome that I can skip any combat by either careful sneaking, using my silver-tongue or stealing stuff. Interestingly, going pacifist is actually the worst Karma run I've done so far because I spend so much time robbing people :lol

brotherhood of steel without any direction, I didn't kill the ranger he removed the collar then I went down and took my revenge on them, including blowing up the station. It said I failed 3 quests (I know they are ones just for that faction) but when I blew up the station it said I failed another quest, so I'm wondering am I missing out on anything important? I didn't want to effect my relations with the NCR since boone is with me, thanks.
where can i get a sniper rifle?and is there a room/house you can buy like tenpenny tower in fallout 3? and i think im about to head to new vegas i think, just finished boulder city.
