Georgelemmons Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Multiple playthrough's are required to get all the achievements and find out what each route does. I took the House Always Wins path and failed quite a few quests but I can take the NCR path on my next playthrough aswell as the Caesars path if I save at the correct points. Thats the best thing to do imo. I actually make a crucial save whenever there's a choice like that, then rename it and never save over it. This way from one starting character I can take all the possible paths :smile: Thanks to Uno for the awsome sig <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the best thing to do imo. I actually make a crucial save whenever there's a choice like that, then rename it and never save over it. This way from one starting character I can take all the possible paths :smile: Yeah I made the mistake of not doing it soon enough. Now i'm at like 35 hours with quite a few achievements that I can't do until I do playthrough 2 all over again. One being hardcore mode that I didn't enable on my first playthrough. Currently my objective is to just get all the achievements i can possibly milk from playthrough 1 then focus on finishing them up on the hardcore playthrough. Main mistake was taking a random person in front of Boone and getting him mad at me. Now i can't get all companions and I have the NCR mad at me aswell. On playthrough 2 I'll have to appease the NCR and Caesar instead of Mr House. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennywise Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 man I was going to go NCR in my last playthrough but stopped playing for about two weeks. When I come back to play the NCR in vegas are all hostile towards me and if I pull out a weapon the securitrons go hostile towards me too. So I killed them all and went with House. Eight Bananas, MD.

Riku3220 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 NCR are a bunch of wimps. Can anyone really tell me how one man, a girl, and a robot were able to completely wipe out the Legion, all the while helping other Wastelanders with their various problems? I went for an independent wasteland specializing in Energy Weapons my first run through and now I'm doing a Legion run through while specializing in Unarmed.

IeatWindex Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Bumping a somewhat old thread, but love this game. Just got the Gannon Family Power Armor and it has great DT. Oh and the Anti-Matereal Rifle is amazing, one hitting everything is epic :P I took the NCR route but I may just go independent Vegas. Anywho Im satisfied with this game and IMO it's better than Fallout 3. Just really would like some free-roam :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeon_ Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I got this game for Christmas, I haven't been on it much. What is good to do to start off? Many believe that the 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens was a catostrophic geological event, in reality it was the day that Jimi Hendrix returned to Earth from the next world and actually stood up next to a mountain and chopped it down with the edge of his hand.-Random Youtuber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IeatWindex Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I got this game for Christmas, I haven't been on it much. What is good to do to start off?Well I did Ghost Town Gunfight in Goodsprings and in Primm got the town a sheriff or whatever that's a good start levels wise. And in Freeside if you want caps do missions for the Silver Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sephiroth_king Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Been playing a lot lately. At level 21 about half way through the main story. Finally got the NCR's veteran ranger armor :thumbup: Remnant's Power Armor ftw. I don't really like the veteran ranger armor simply because it associates me with the NCR. Caravan really has no "good" merchants to dominate. Go to Novac and play the shopkeep there. He usually has a decent amount of caps. Also, buy stuff and play caravan for your money back. It helps. I'm on my fourth play through, having lots of fun. Especially since I got Dead Money on my PC. :thumbup: Hoping to get a new Signature (with matching avatar) soon. :D In the meantime...Steam username: )I'll rewrite it later (add me if you want) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sephiroth_king Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 How exactly did you get dead money on pc o.0? I can instruct people how to do it if allowed, which I'm not sure I can. But as to my knowledge, it isn't illegal... [spoiler=If this is illegal, remove it]I don't think its illegal seeing as how you will be purchasing the game and then subsequently putting on the PC. It is your property, after all. Nevertheless, there are a couple of prerequisites for doing this: You must have an XBOX and the ability to connect said XBOX to the PC (moreover the hard drive inside of the XBOX). The other is purchasing Dead Money on the XBOX LIVE Marketplace, as I'm not going to condone torrents and the such. You'll also need programs I'll list below or programs the function similarly to the ones I list. So, 1. Purchase Dead Money2. Connect the 360 HDD to the PC.3. There are multiple options after this, some crazy and then others safer: a. Disassemble and connect w/ SATA b. Use Datel XSATA c. Use USB Flash as XBOX Storage device to copy the DLC.4. You'll need Xploerer360[Caution: Executable File]. google it. a. Browse to this: -Xbox 360 HDD:/Partition3/Content/0000000000000000/425307E0/00000002/ -In there, move the F3E30CC51469686629DF56202A26A4B7187655EB42 file to your PC.5. Next you'll need something like the wxPirs-1.1 program. Google it. a. Go to file/Open and open the file you brought to the PC. b. This is the easiest part; the opened file should have a bunch of Fallout BSA and ESM (master) files. Choose File/Extract All from the menu to any folder you want.6. Copy the Dead money bsa, sounds, and ESM files to the New Vegas Data directory (where you install mods).7. After loading your game, wait a bit for Dead Money to be identified. When it is, you will get a message and a quest will be initiated. The level cap will also be raised.8. You win. Enjoy. :) That's how I did it (actually did the safer routes, obviously. I know of people that have used the other HDD methods I listed, so I thought I'd post those to for a last resort). Not that hard, and everything works just fine, and I bought it legally so I don't see how its a bad thing. It works for any DLC as well, and we can thank Microsoft for having similar file structures in the 360 and PC. :thumbup: EDIT: Again, I don't condone this, but there are torrents as well where people have done the same thing I have. Lot less work for you. I don't fully condone it, obviously. But I'm not against people doing it, either.

H2PM Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Meh. Yeah that's what I've been doing.

sephiroth_king Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 ^that's awesome. Cass is one of my favorite companions in any of the Fallouts. I remember her parents in Fallout 2... I'm on my Fifth playthrough with a bunch of mods, waiting for the Corvega Car and the full release of Project Nevada...(I am testing it though :D, so I'm waiting for the next beta modules) Mainly playing with that, XFO to makr the game more like FWE, and Classic Fallout Weapons. Lots of others as well, don't feel like naming them all though. I'm looking for the Bozar.
