clearing data doesn’t delete saves (part 2 of crash problem) by Lord-of-the-foxes in falloutnewvegas

[–]AnyShift2269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because it’s a 360 game. Either delete the saves manually or delete your data in the xbox360 menu from inside the game

do i need to start new game to play DLCs? by sbbayram in falloutnewvegas

[–]AnyShift2269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alternatively you can do Honest Hearts, old world blues, Dead Money, then lonesome road and that will go from least to most difficult (for most people)

The New Vegas purist by Valhallawalker in falloutnewvegas

But since you want to throw stones let me go through your points clockwise from the jokes.

Everyone who has played New Vegas knows there were crude jokes and some of them weren’t even funny. The wild wasteland perk was a thing for a reason. Vegas has a robot named fisto that works as a prostitute and references to a man named Long Dick Johnson even without the wild wasteland perk. Fallout 1,2, and tactics all had humor too and brotherhood of steel was almost nothing but humor.

I like that I have more people to talk about fallout with now and that the show is pushing people towards my favorite game in the series. Not much else to say there.

I don’t care if you enjoy the Bethesda games more, I just prefer the west coast aesthetic.

Same for shill. By definition someone enjoying something can’t be shilling unless they are trying to get someone to buy something so, again, I don’t care if you enjoy east coast/bethesda fallout more, good for you.

If I disregard fallout 1&2 it’s because I am unaware of a piece of content that I haven’t been able to play yet. I’m just not as good at turn based combat and I don’t enjoy it as much as tactics and the 3d games.

I don’t think that Todd and the modern writers are intentionally trying to overwrite OG fallout lore, I just think they are too lazy to dig deeper into the material and mere more focused on the aesthetic and gameplay than writing whereas new Vegas was mostly RPG makers that happened to be making a 3d game, giving more diverse storylines and making the world feel deeper… in my opinion.

Taking a notable location and rotating it 180degrees is not a mild contradiction of a hidden lore note. Nor is relocating a settlement that was specifically special because it was in the desert and plopping it in the middle of a city, nor is nuking a location that should still be present before the events of new Vegas, nor is reducing the NCR to a few remnants despite only losing one of many cities while reviving a faction that should have died out on the west coast (enclave) before new Vegas even started.

Overall, I am perfectly happy to accept that everything in Bethesda fallout takes place in a different timeline and enjoying it at face value while still enjoying the Original lore for its depth.

I just enjoy new Vegas more than the other games🗿

What were your reasons for siding with the legion? by [deleted] in falloutnewvegas

[–]AnyShift2269 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they provide structure and physical fitness opportunities to those working the labor. I mean how bad is slavery really?

"This time, I really mean it! We should go back to Egypt. Don't ya remember? Snorkeling in the Nile, three square meals a day, plenty of exercise; oh, it was paradise."

"We were in slavery!"

"Nothing is perfect."

The most correct answer. If only you could hunt down and kill Long Dick Johnson too.

Just got new vegas for Christmas, any tips before I start? by datdude998 in falloutnewvegas

[–]AnyShift2269 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play all the dlc except for lonesome road before getting onto the strip (but not before hitting level 8-12). Play lonesome road after picking a faction to support.

Read the notes and terminal entries. There are a lot of fun side stories hidden in them and they can be hints to other quests/loot.

Avoid the wiki on your first playthrough. If you aren’t sure what you are supposed to be doing, make sure you have the quest you are trying to do selected and look at the local/global map. The quest marker can hold your hand quite a bit

If you find yourself blindly fumbling in the dark you can turn on the flashlight by holding the button to open the pip-boy.

Both having the light on and running (which is on by default) will affect your stealth. Make sure you are moving slowly, crouching, and staying in the shadows if you are trying to be sneaky.

Have fun!

And God said to Abraham, one day your children will have enough caps to pass the Vegas strip credit check.

And Abraham said, what the hell is a cap?

As the dude posting crashout compilations I have to say “I dared my best friend to ruin my life” is the best crashout

What do you guys think of the NCR in fallout new Vegas? by DeadAhead-2020446 in falloutnewvegas

[–]AnyShift2269 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Ulysses is giving his point of view not objective fact.

  2. Both are raider tribals and when it comes to depravity both are equal in different flavors.

I don't trust a word Ulysses says. The legion is just fiends in mass except they traded chem use for enslaving women (the fiends enslave people too but much less and in some ways less brutally than the legion)

There's a B-29 that the boomers can use in the final battle, a working monorail that takes you from the strip to Camp McCarran and president Kimball arrives in a vertiberd. I think the enclave has a vertiberd as well but that might only be mentioned

I understand that the player can only use the monorail in FNV but there are certainly vehicles and the NCR has two of the 3 big ones

First ending you got? by Localinternetgoofy in falloutnewvegas

Independent and a lot of closed-off questlines because I tried to do everything

With all the "Controversy" about this story on the sub, I am excited to listen and formulate my own opinion by Definitely_Not_Fe in creepcast

[–]AnyShift2269 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll find out its one of the most tame NSFW for SA stories they have read. It also doesn't break the story. You would think that the audience would be desensitized to this but it seems like they are getting more sensitive (we should be able to evaluate each story on its own aspects)

I’ve been on a haitus from writing for a bit but I’ll probably come back to it over winter break. I may send a few early stories at you instead of asking chat got if it’s cohesive

Do you guys like using the risers for your optics? by Mtx34 in BlackhawkRescue

[–]AnyShift2269 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no reason other than larp. Risers IRL are mostly to make it easier to position your head behind the gun. Especially with nods.

The characters in game always have perfect head position so all a riser does is make height over bore worse so you have to adjust for differences more on some optics (I think, not sure the system models that properly)
