I Have a Major Problem with New Vegas

Post » Tue Jan 25, 2011 7:12 pm

Yeah, but i like the brotherhood. There ideals is to stop people getting more technology that would simply ruin the planet some more. Imagine the legion or the NCR or the khans got nucleur weapons, would that help the mojave? I dont think so. Also i think some people are sore that they got a explosive collar stuck on em when they arrived at their bunker, but thats just security

In the words of Mr. House

May there be an unending tartarus for you. :stare:

@Mike- Actually, the kings deaths are avoidable, if you incite the kings to war against NCR, House sees this as a sign of their loyalty to New Vegas and ignores them.


I'll have to try that the next time.

Right, considering you owe him your life, and he saved vegas, I would say he has done more than any other character will, and you were a thief. You were payed to deliver. If you delivered something to my door and said "nope mine" I would attack you too. Its theft, you have no legal ownership of the chip. And for an arrogant business man he sure has saved lots of lives and asked for nothing in return, making him better than anyone else in the mojave and ncr.

He wanted control of new vegas more than anything. Look at the ending with house and tell me im wrong. Also i didnt give him the platinum chip because i knew that might be the only thing keeping me alive. And house could have said why i should give him the platinum chip, not tried to kill me, after his little tantrum i decided he was evil and shot him in his little tube. :celebration:

The BoS also becomes more reasonable once it gets a new leader or the current elder is convinced that they should end the lockdown. In a way, it's like Vault 101 in Fallout 3.

If one sides with the NCR, they can be convinced to become allied with the BoS, which I really like.

BAHAHAHAHA. The Western Brotherhood Chapters? Good Intentions? Dross. They are condescending technology lovers who can't stand it when others have better tech. The BoS aren't the white knights you seem to have them pictured to be (Though the East Coast BoS are White Knights) they want technology because they consider wastelanders to be 'undeserving' of high end tech. To put it in short, the BoS isn't that from being the Enclave.

You're half right, if you replace Macnamara, he refuses to side with NCR, the BoS essentially becoming terrorists under the new Elder.

@Wrighty- You let personalities in the way of your judgement? Thats ridiculous.

Yes-Man wants you to do it too. And for good reason, the BoS are a bunch of crybabies when someone has better tech than them, House wants you to kill them because it's likely that they would go to war with New Vegas.

The Bos if you have better tech=http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii97/Martyr_of_Death/crybaby.jpg

Edit @ Name- You never mention that the NCR sent an ambassador to meet with The Kings, then the King will ask you to help Pacer wipe out the NCR guys at the train yard. (Warning though, be sure to have a good rep with NCR, as this dropped me from accepted to mixed, so if you're neutral, the NCR wont like you at all.)

House has a good peoint about the BoS, you only see them after weapons, never autodocs, prostetic limbs or anything that isnt about killing.
Also I have my safehouse, I just need to complete the quests for exp then the ncr can go die. Allthough I would like to keep boone.
But I didn't kill him. He wanted me to but I wouldn't.

Oh in that case even more justifiable.

Yeah the reasonable part ends when you have them work with ncr and the new elder.

:lol: BoS suporter man you will love this, either they stay in that hole or they get killed. You can work around it but NV will be an even bigger hell hole.

What do you mean? How does the reasonable part end when they are allied with NCR. Hardin is a idiot, im glad i didnt put him in power.

Also the brotherhood dosnt like people carrying advanced weapons, they dont mind auto docs or stuff like that

Mhm, hence in terms of BoS, I only like the Eastern BoS. You CAN keep Boone if you play your cards right. It's just a matter of how you play your cards. Raise your NCR level to Liked, and then do the Kings mission. I hate being near NCR after the quest, having a good and bad rep with NCR, All their 'IDK why you find it hard to pick a side' crap annoying. I'm so glad the game can't tell when I use a faction. :spotted owl:

As for the BoS, when I get my power armor training and a suit of T-51b, I'll blow their tin canned behinds to kingdom come. What kind of idiot has a hackable self destruct terminal anyway? :spotted owl:

The kind who enslave you then expect you to be friends telling you all thier secrets. And selling you equipment. I will rob them blind stock up then blow them up. Just like the legion. I am mr houses ace, and assassin. God I love how I can sneak into other groups and [censored] them up for my prefered group.

The one thing is though he hasn't let anybody in to the Lucky 38 for over 200 yrs I mean if he allowed anybody to get in then Benny would have killed him after he got the chip.

He still should have had a password incase anyone was to break into the lucky 38. And he was an idiot for trusting a stranger

Oh god yes, I thought I was the only one who put alot of effort into gameplay. Take going to the Fort, I play nice with Caesar a little, then I leave, then I execute Nelson and Cottonwood Cove. I am an hero of New Vegas :spotted owl:

Not a self destruct code, a password to open his little tube that keeps him alive. Or even better, make it impossible to open his little tube. But like kicenna says, it was his arrogance that killed him

I was pointing out the stupidity of the BoS. And arrogant, he kept the place sealed and gaurded by protecttrons. More than the BoS has done.
And youkeep saying arrogant, how ? By letting you in and demanding you return his property (it is his) not arrogant.

In reality, I'm sure he would, but for the sake of the player, I think they made it that easy. Just realistically, it'd be hard to blow up a Pre-War government bunker that the BoS dwell in.

I think alot of people forget the 'suspension of disbelief' area an RPG game entails.

He refuses to tell you anything until you give him the chip. I wanted to keep my options open when playing, but if you do that her trys to kill you. He treats you like a servant. In the ending he kills off the kings, who frankly did nothing wrong. And i accepted the Brotherhood sticking a collar on me, because they needed too keep security tight. They were talking about survival. And for good reason, house NCR CL all wanted to wipe the brotherhood out. While house trys to kill you simply cause you wanted some answers, and you wanted to find out why you were shot.

Anyway the top 3 members of the brotherhood kept the password to the self destruct system. Much better than a few securitrons, which were pretty pathetic at fighting.

House didnt tell you because it would be easier to show, and security reasons.
I could hack the terminal, so no not well protected.

No one else but House has use for the chip, thats a terrible excuse.

Entirely avoidable, all you have to do is keep the Kings from aligning with NCR.

House needs to keep security tight, I dont ever recall a slave collar being put on me by House.

I would want a terrorist cell wiped out too.

Resorting to lying are we? He only attempts to kill you if you refuse to hand over HIS platinum chip.

Humans only need a few pistol shots in the chest to die. Harder to kill than Securitrons? I think not.

The fact that they were Kings was enough for me. I clapped at the end when I found out Mr. House had eliminated them, "To the last man."

Right.....because sticking an explosive collar on potential friends is always a good idea when you're in survival mode..... :pinch:

ummm...try that with Mk II securitrons...and frankly i didn't think that the Mk I were that bad at fighting...

Dosnt stop him from telling me why he needs the chip. He basically went, give me the chip or i will kill you, shows the mans arrogance

Does not explain why house wiped out the kings in the first place. Shows what kind of person he is

House needs to keep security tight, I dont ever recall a slave collar being put on me by House.
House was an idiot not too, a few securitrons with 9mm sub machine guns isnt enough to keep a truly dangerous enemy out.

I would want a terrorist cell wiped out too.
Terrorist cell? They are just another faction trying to survive. Please explain how the brotherhood are a terrorist cell

Resorting to lying are we? He only attempts to kill you if you refuse to hand over HIS platinum chip.
No reason why he could not tell us why he needs his platinum chip, the courier has every right to ask what he will do with the platinum chip, he was shot in the head for it after all

What if that human is carring power armour and several effective weapons. I think so

@Guy above you choose the weak ncr (which seems like it will colapse any time now) or the uncivilised legion over house ? And yes man option will result in anarchy, or skynet.
House said it best "you want to see how old world democracies got us, look outside the window" and many other great words. I cant kill him.

It's not so much complete anarchy but opening up the option for a new New Vegas.

Autumn killing you was perfectly acceptable, you were a hreat to his plan, eden would have you use the FEV, autumn could only garuntee it didnt happen by killing you.

There is no indication he knew that before hand. Despite not looking for genocide, his Enclave would still be jerks.

The fact that they were Kings was enough for me. I clapped at the end when I found out Mr. House had eliminated them, "To the last man."

Really because the Kings kept Freeside pretty orderly.
