Fallout New Vegas

[Krazy]

I'm specializing in spotting targets for Boone and letting him kill shit.

[Wintermute]

I love the companions, nothing quite like having an extra mule or two to lose all my goddamn shit.

Lost almost every single spare or Unique weapon I'd picked up in ~20 hours of play because Boone apparently decided he only really wanted the one Plasma pistol.

Get ED-E and you'll be able to spot things faster too.

I play Melee most of the time, and cap out:

100 Melee
100 Unarmed
95 Sneak (+5 from Chinese Stealth Suit)
85 Lockpick (+5 from jumpsuit, +10 from book if I find a Very Hard Lock)
80 Science (+10 from coat, +10 from book for Very Hard Hack)
80 Medicine (+10 from coat, +10 from book for situational conversations)
45 Survival (For 10% movement speed bonus)

SPECIAL:

9 Strength (+1 from Implant)
5 Perception (+1 from Implant, +1 from Recon Beret)
7 Endurance (+1 from Implant)
1 Charisma
1 Intelligence
9 Agility (+1 from Implant)
9 Luck (+1 from Implant)

The rest aren't important to me but I'll typically throw extra points into Speech and Repair.

For weapons, I use Oh, Baby!, Pushy, and Chance's Knife. Sometimes I'll throw on Paladin Toaster and Knock Knock for fun, but I usually stick to the previously mentioned.

[Eggroll]

Your lack of the ballistic fist disgusts me.

[Wintermute]

I always play shooty/sneaky dudes. Never tried the melee route.

Apparently everything that vanished from Boone's inventory is showing up in the bags of all the other characters I never recruited...
Decided to rush to the end instead of being careful about which side I choose just to be done with the bugs and crashing.

Also: Fuck Cazadores. And Deathclaws.
Every other place I seem to go is swarming with the bastards.

I love me a good sniper man. I make sure to get my 100 lockpicking as fast as I can so I can get my Gobi Sniper Rifle back. I fucking love that thing. That combined with the Ratslayer for low armored targets. I never get spotted :D

[Rivero]

Just did the Vault 34 Quest, i'm not usually scared when playing games but shit, i was jumping out of my skin everytime i went around a corner. Goddamn feral ghouls.

YES. God finally someone who hates those motherfucking ghouls as much as I do. Thank god there's no giant subway full of those guys.

[Eggroll]

Wow, just tried the missile launcher and the AoE radius is ridiculous. If you shoot it in a casino lobby pretty much everyone is dead, this definitely makes up for how lame the grenade machine gun was.

[Zanz L. Barre The 3rd]

Regular missile launcher or Annabelle?

[Eggroll]

Both

Where is that?

Although I love my Gauss rifle and don't know if I wanna use an actual sniper rifle :<

[Zanz L. Barre The 3rd]

Gobi Sniper Rifle is at the Sniper's Nest near Cottonwood Cove. It's definitely my favorite gun!

[Myrrh_Quetz]

I burn through my ammo for it so fast though. I go to all the special caves with Queen/kings/legendary mobs and fuck shit up lol

[Atreides]

I've been using Lucky (the 357 magnum unique) and All-American, although I'm pretty sure neither is the best weapon out there. Anyone know where I can find more Assault Carbines (or does it use Marksman Carbines?) to repair the All-American?

I finally got my Presidential Suite at Lucky 38, took me almost 2 hours to transfer all my shit from my Novac motel room because for whatever reason ED-E and Boone kept making my armor go poof when I gave it to them to hold.

It sucks that companion kills don't affect your reputation/karma, I kinda stole enough shit that it made my character "Very Evil" and the fuckers keep ganking my Fiend kills. Still, I've gotten back to neutral finally, yay

I'm glad it doesn't. I dont want good karma from fiends xD

[Myrrh_Quetz]

I don't use companions. I find they always get in my way. I just get em and park em in my room and enjoy their sweet sweet perks.

[Atreides]

supposedly if you leave your companions in your house they may eat all your food, so be careful if you're stockpiling nuka cola victory or something

[Myrrh_Quetz]

Then maybe it was Boone who took all my guns <_<

[Yuri-G]

I hear they do that in this game. sucks, Butch was my walking storage closet in the last game.
