That's why the guide book is handy as it gives plan views of all the areas of note.

I still get lost in a few, mind, but it's easier than using the local map in the Pipboy or guessing.

I picked up the guide and it frightened me :eek: I only use it for reference now and then, that and now to work out what side quests I haven't done yet

+1!

got the "collectors" version, nice to have, certainly better than using the web-guides as it actually has what I want to know, but I can't use it like the FO3 guide, there's just soooo many quests!

thats half of the fun though!

thought id shoot up the hidden bunker today with my AM, backed up my save beforehand

stumbled accross a Gauss Rifle - f**king excellent

Gauss>AM

Not if you've got 18 Enery Weapon points, and 90 Gun Points.

Then, AM Rifle>Everything.

LOL. True. The Energy Weapons in F:NV are seriously duped. They just don't work as well as F3.

Although, give Boone the Gauss Rifle and you're onto a winner. He's currently rocking with the AM Rifle on mine. I've got the Gobi Sniper. Might swap with him.

ahh, i aint really maxed out either of mine

like i aint gone all out energy or guns

i think atm ive got 40 guns/40 energy weapons/40 unarmed/40 melee stuff

so im good with all weapons so i can pick and switch

currently building up my repair points as i want the perk that allows you to upgrade the great guns using other guns

Same setup as I had. Now we both roll with AM's. lol

I've been trying to balance my character too much, next playthrough I'll go for a hard-as-nail, dim as a 0w bulb nutter.

never tried melee or unarmed, could be interesting up against a family of deathclaws!

boone has 0 in energy weapons, so gauss would be a bad idea on him, AM on the other hand.

im gonna drop lily later and pick up Arcade Gammon n put a gauss on him.

im upto the dam quest and i bet ive discovered less than 30% of locations. so i got a good while just roaming around now discoverin s**t

might even drop ED-E for Rex as i dunno about anyone else. but his ultra far sight is so annoying. like ill see red dots pop up and try to go in VATS and theyre f**king MILES away lol

Yeah, don't give Boone the GR. He goes a bit mental with it.

What weapons are people rocking with for good results? I've got s**t ones tbf. Got the Alien Blaster and some other stuff but nothing that causes major damage. Got the scoped carbine which is decent. Need the AM Rifle I think.
 
  Golf R32
Gobi Scout Rifle is my personal favourite, the unique Gauss Rifle is definitely worth going after as ts so easy to get and does some impressive damage all be it at a high ammo cost. Huntng Rifles & Shotguns are pretty impressive too. everyone rate the Anti Material Rifle so I've loaded Boone up with one.

Also anyone else got their character laid yet, twice mine has with boone & e-de watching lol

Had a massive fail over the weekend.

Tried to close off the White glove society side quest. Had the food made, the wine spiked and the lad released.

So, I go to the members' section and without any provocation the entire room goes hostile, since I didn't have enough sneak, I couldn't bring my Mysterious Magnum in to do the business.

Long story short, ED-E and Veronica both bought the farm and now there's no-one alive in the casino. Wouldn't have minded if I'd raped tehm for all their worth at the casino first, so far I've only maxed out The Tops.

Would have gone to an old save, but ED-E decided to die just as I left one room so there was no going back. Just picked up Lily though and will trip over the kings and get Dogm......Rex.
 
i picked up that unique gauss last night along with a unique supersledge but i havent invested anything in that sort of weapon


i decided to sleep with the cowboy ghoul that was freaky

wander around Hoover Dam, I jkust wish there were some better dialogue options... in the same ilk as the Beavis & Butthead movie

"Is this a god-damn?"
"I'll be damned!"

etc.

Thought I'd have a crack at finishing it last night just to see what the ending was like with me being sided with Mr House.

Basically ended up just killing everyone. Legion's real leader (not Caesar) was a complete beast !!! Hit him with at least 4 Mini Nukes of the 6 I had, few .308 AP rounds from the Gobi, and then just unloaded the Light Machine gun with AP rounds till he went down. NCR General then showed up and as my speech wasn't high enough (needed 100) ended up having to take him and his Rangers out.
Might try other endings now just to see them through, plus hunt down the last few Unique weapons and odd side quests

Was a damn good ending. I've started it again as well and am thinking of taking out the NCR to see what happens;)

Completed first playthrough last night, working with Yes Man.
tip to all withthe Wild Wasteland Perk - If you want to make life very easy for the final encounters, pack your alien blaster!

those who have completed it now clearly have raped the main quest and haven't even spent enough time on it. it took me 190hours to do 90% of FO3, FO-NV is even longer...

totally.

I just wanted to get my first playthrough done as I got bored of my character. My 100% FO3 playthrough was a 90-hour job, including all DLC's

Now going to start a dim-as-a-0w-bulb chara that loves the Legion and has max strength and luck

I found the brewer's cave thing last night so got my Gauss rifle finally. I'm trying to do the side quests as I don't want to finish it as I got Yes Man to ignore everyone apart from Legion. Seems to have pissed off NCR as they are being gay about me siding with other factions.

Just got the final vault to do for the BOS. Raised the plane for the Boomers etc. Only done 25 hours in all so need to do tons more before I end the final quest.

Whats the last quest called? I don't want to progress so far into the main quest that i can't do anything else. I'm currenly on something called wildcard:(forgot what). Yes man is sending me to make sure the president of the NCR doesn't die or something

Secondly, i think i've fucked up. I tried getting power armour training, but now every time i talk to the head scribe he says I have to wait as someoen is plotting against him (other other brotherhood man). Any other way to get the training?
 
  Octy VRS
Yeah, it tells you that you cannot carry on after that point. Regards to Power Armour training, I think you have to wait few days after completing the BOS quests, then go back and speak to him.

I think there is an option to get Arcade to train you also.

I'm no doubt massively behind most on here with this. I've just got to the Rocket Factory and am in the basement with Boone. I've got to clear the Nightkin from down there. Whats the best option to take? Find the ghouls girl they've got captive, or kill the ghoul?

I went upstairs and the ghoul shot at me, so Boone smoked him. I found the shipping log that said all the StealthBoys had been sent back, so I see no advantage in killing the ghoul.

Last quest(s) listed in guide depending on who you're allied to are:

No Gods, No Masters
All or Nothing
Veni, Vidi, Vici
Eureka!

Kill everthing apart from the Ghoul. If you've got ED-E set him to aggressive and he'll kill them all for you in two minutes!

That quest corrupted my save file so to get the ghouls to leave I killed them and never bothered going into the basement to deal with the nightkin.

I love the sense of scale of the map, it's HUGE. What annoyed me with F3 was all the bitty bits of DC that you could only get to through the metro. In FNV you can just walk. I want to do a walk from the top to the bottom of the map and time it just to see how big it is.

I'm only 25 hrs and level 18, still so much to do. I won't finish it for months.

Only two critasisms of this game
1) Bit too buggy, but not annoyingly so (apart from when it crashes)
2) I wish you didn't have to have specific skills to open certain perks - I'd have liked to have chosen all of them :(

Other than that - Game of the year IMO
