The Boomers are ok, they're just whacked out xenophobes with lots of fucking bombs. They think they're superior because they've been taught that they're whole lives, and never had the chance to be proven wrong. They're certainly nowhere near as big of pricks as the citizens of Vault City. Fuck those guys, except for their willingness to turn me into a god damned cyborg for the right price.

New World Blues may very well grant your wish to become a cyborg. I don't know if it will be perk-style like implants, but if I can get cyber arms to go with my proton axe, I am gonna go full bore Space Marine.
Plus mad doctor scrubs so I can become my namesake and fire laser beams from a gun powered by a dog brain.

So out of the blue I decided that my new companion Boone and I were going to go kill Caesar. It's truly amazing that I'm not addicted to turbo, jet, and med-x right now.

Alright well... I seem to have reached a point where I cannot leave a building after battling the Powder Keggers without the game crashing. I am trapped in this house forever.

This may be where I call up the company to get a refund.

You are having the absolute worst luck with this game aren't you?

Try this out. According to the website it is compatible with the newest patch

Mothra · « **Reply #86 on:** July 19, 2011, 06:31:34 AM »

Appreciate the intent... unfortunately now the game doesn't get past the setup screen.

YOU MADE IT WORSE

What retry from start is this for you?

Mothra · « **Reply #88 on:** July 19, 2011, 10:53:53 AM »

Well back when it used to crash every time I walked out the first door in the game, I guess four, before I saved in front of the doom door.

After that, I'll be god damned if I'm restarting my game because their shitty game doesn't work right.

MadMaxJr has given me hope in the form of an update that is apparently coming at some point today for Vegas over Steam.

Classic · « **Reply #89 on:** July 19, 2011, 11:24:23 AM »

Whatever is causing that crash is probably an error that occurred earlier bearing fruit. The point where the error actually occurred could very easily be before you even entered the building.

Mothra · « **Reply #90 on:** July 19, 2011, 11:47:34 AM »

damn your eyes man leave me a shred of hope

do you have any idea how many powder keggers I have killed in this house??

Classic · « **Reply #91 on:** July 19, 2011, 11:55:44 AM »

If it's the big house you've probably slain one or two score?

I don't think I've ever actually bothered to go in and kill all of them in the NCRCF.

Bal · « **Reply #92 on:** July 19, 2011, 12:25:25 PM »

I crashed a fair few times when that game launched, but nothing so nightmarish as what's happening to you there, Kabbage. Good luck with that

Mothra · « **Reply #93 on:** July 19, 2011, 01:27:16 PM »

All my saves are either inside this god forsaken house or at the doctor's office at the very very start

I kind of hate this game

Beat Bandit · « **Reply #94 on:** July 19, 2011, 01:36:13 PM »

You may be trapped inside a building and completely unable to play the game at all, but I... I will never get to see my Mexican Ghoul in his bandito outfit. Give me not your pity, but only your sorrow.

Smiler · « **Reply #95 on:** July 19, 2011, 01:40:49 PM »

Have you tried using cheats to teleport yourself somewhere else?

Beat Bandit · « **Reply #96 on:** July 20, 2011, 04:54:53 PM »

Man, I had had almost no issue with NV crashing, especially compared to 3, but my computer apparently fucking hates the Ultra-Luxe.

NexAdruin · « **Reply #97 on:** July 20, 2011, 05:54:07 PM »

If you tell the Ultra-luxe that you don't want to give up your guns, is the dialogue option "Get fucked by a fish?"

Because that's what I got for a dialogue option, and... Wow.

Disposable Ninja · « **Reply #98 on:** August 19, 2011, 07:53:08 AM »

I just got it. Well, okay, I got it a while ago and have just now started playing. Really enjoying it, though.

I'm surprised by the general lack of sleaze, though. Well, in relation to previous games in the series where you could be a porn star and sell your lesbian wife into sexual slavery. So far in the game the only thing my character has had sex with has been Fisto the sexbot.

Not that... uh... I play the Fallout games for the sleaze or anything.

ANYWAY: I'm disappointed in the general lack of diplomatic character builds. I like playing characters who rely almost entirely on charisma and smooth talking to get out of hairy situations in these sorts of RPGs (or when that fails, the lovely bruisers who accompany my character). Admittedly, I usually don't get very far in these RPGs because eventually you're expected to put up or shut up, and my under-leveled talker is usually not up to snuff.

Still, though, it looks as if there are only three perks that actually affect your dialog options, and one of them immediately throws you into combat. That's just lame.

Norondor · « **Reply #99 on:** August 19, 2011, 08:26:16 AM »

there's still a lot that having high speech helps with, though notably i am preeeetty sure charisma is useful for almost nothing. Luck is as usual far-and-away the best stat. put it at 9 and get cyborged for 10 (unless there's a lucky 8 ball in that game? i forget now)
