Just saying that going through vault 38 is totally worth it in the end. You get access to their armory which contains like 5 assault carbines, 5 marksman carbines, a missile launcher, a grenade launcher, a minigun, a load of various explosives and ammo and most importantly "all-american" which is a unique and cool looking marksman rifle (repair it with all the other MRs, its in pretty bad shape)

STREET FIGHT!

Had to be said. Honestly, I'm not really liking the way that Mr Houses' quests are going.. so I might just play it out until I've reaped all the rewards and then go and powerfist his shrivelled ass again.

Edit:By the way, my mate once put some C4 under Caeser's chair..


Edit #2: by the way, how do I open the overseer's office and hence the armory? I can't find any keys.. supposedly it's on the Overseer ghoul, but I don't think I've seen him yet.

Anywho, Yes Man's ending is pretty funny, at least I thought so.

Enter and pretend to be friendly to gain entrance then use a stealthboy, steal a load of plasma mines to place around the place while everyone is friendly then reverse pickpocket grenades into the inventories of the two characters.

Or charge in guns blazing with lots of armour and a good companion.

Better idea. Lay a small minefeild outside their shop. Kill the guy outside. All their goons bumble out onto your minefeild and die. Only gotta fight the two characters inside then.

With the first method you just hide in the bathroom as everyone explodes

Though you could go with scotts method THEN stealthboy in and pantsplode the characters.

Nah nah nah.

Steal everything off their table by dragging it into the toilet room and then taking it.

As for killing the Van Graffs, do their door quest and let the suicide bomber with the C4 in. Then finish them off with the weapons you just stole!

But this does mean that you can't make the BoS and the NCR best buddies.. which sucks, because they're both awesome.

The only Fat Man I've ever come across was today, craptastic and in the BoS weapons shop..

..I just knicked 4 sets of power armor off them instead.

I miss the Experimental MARV right about now, that thing was 8 Mini Tons of fun...

Killing the Van Graffs is pretty easy, steal their stuff, then let the guy with the C4 in during the quest the woman at the counter gives. Everyone will die except for the person standing next to you. Kill him, and your done.

Managed to glitch Veronica and now she won't move.

Got to move only by telling her to go to the 38 and once there she won't move again. -_-

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

The first time I went to the BoS in the hidden valley, I wore some NCR armour and could not figure out why they kept on trying to kill me.

I got annoyed so I wiped out their entire base and stole all their stuff

Then I realised what was going on and re-loaded the game

The BoS are awesome, although oddly enough they mostly seem to wear T-51b, of which there were only two sets of in Fallout 3.

But these BoS, while not overly useful, are pretty chilled. Perhaps otherwise known as boring [and very easy to steal from].

But never overthrow the Elder (unless you really want to or want easy access to the power armor perk) because without him you can't make the BoS and NCR buddies, and lets face it, they're the two most awesome factions.

The NCR are a corupt, fasle burocracy, making promises that they can't keep. They can't even protect ' Their ' lands.

Bah, if the NCR from the Chosen One's time saw this they probably would have stayed in shady sands.

About the T-51 thing. The east coast isn't as advanced as the west.

The NCR's leaders might well be corrupt etc, but its ideals are mostly good and all of those soldiers are just doing their job.

Admittedly, it is failing. But who else is there? The Legion? I'd rather have the NCR. The BoS in the Mojave don't give a damn about normal people, so obviously not them.

Although, the wasteland(s) aren't all that bad as they are. Just a few too many raiders.

Ah well, the NCR is at least distracting the aforementioned Raiders - for the most part. Plus, some of them wear Berets. Berets are cool.

Oh yeah, does NV take place at a different point in time to F3?

About 10 years.

TBH the only reason the east coast got it's own game was Bethesda giving itself reason to start over and forget the west. So that would explain the lack of most references to the west and other things. So really when there is differences between the two, west takes precedence. BoS in the mojave is actually the remains of the original chapter. Not an offshoot.

I know that about the BoS, and they're actually sticking to their original principles. But the whole deal is they're not willing to change so.. they suck. The F3 BoS actually care about people, but in the Mojave they're just leaving the NCR to 'take care' of things.

Yeah but the idea is that humans are humans. Not everone wants to help everyone.

It's not for happy endings much. That's why everyone is flawed.
