Sorry.. posted this in the wrong section first... should be here in general discussion and not spoilers.. feel free to delete the thread there as it's a dupe..

Alright.. I logged in solely to make this post.. i'm lost..

I finished Dead Money (not a fan.. 5.4 out of 10 rating) and went back to get my companions.. after working with a few saves before entering Sierra Madre I released Veronica and ED-E after realizing they'd take my gear and go regardless.. so I took their gear, and left it in cabinets back in one of my houses before entering the DLC..

..AFTER the DLC.. I was able to get Veronica back with no problems.. picked up her gear and gave it back to her (pushy..and oh baby + brotherhood armour)... but no matter what I do when I go back to Primm ED-E attacks Jonathon Nash in the shop as soon as I go in.. I tried getting him first...tried getting gear and then him..tried getting veronica first and then gear and then him.. tried getting veronica with no gear and then him.... no matter whta I do ED-E ALWAYS is hostile as soon as I enter the Primm shop and he attacks Jon Nash first and then Me and/or Veronica..

.. ??? WTF.. I eventually went on.. which is a matter of speaking as I'm 35 for awhile now and just picked up Rex instead to wander with Veronica.. but I like ED-E and would like him back..

.. how do I get to ED-E .. POST DEAD MONEY.. without him being hostile to anything/everything.. is this a bug??

sounds like a bug. maybe its a weird bug where it happens rarely, idk. If you are not making a new playthrough soon, I say wait it out. maybe after some updates they could have something like this fixed, but wouldn't get your hopes up.

haha that svcks man i got a weird bug where northern passage is opencsh X D.so join the club of weird stuff

Same here man! i thought it was just me.... Damn boon killed him! *Sniff* Hes dead...

I got this too. it svcks. hopefully they come out with a fix for it in a patch?

Same here.

This happened to me to on the PS3 version of the vanilla game. I was also using Veronica and ED-E. I went to go get ED-E, after my companions disappeared for a few days, and ED-E was hostile. So apparently this is a multi-platform bug. Has anyone experienced this with other companions, or has this only occurred with Veronica and ED-E(hostile)?

Sounds like another rushed development with not enough beta testing. Its a shame had potential.

Yeah, I had the same problem. I had actually left him (by accident) in the BoS bunker when I blew it up, so I was pretty relieved when I read that he had returned to Primm. Was pretty peeved that I had to put him down, though.

Yah.. I still can't get him back.. and just lost :swear: Rex too..

I picked him up to replace the hostile ED-E post Dead Money.. decide to switch up Cass and Veronica and create a new companion team since it didn't feel right having Veronica without ED-E.. so I ditched V and took Cass with Rex and started her quests since I had nothing else to do.. I sent Rex back to Lucky 38 while I got sidetracked looking for the Remants bunker - he kept attacking someone with a friggin hat when I fast traveled into NCR Foxtrot - went back to Lucky 38 later and now he's nowhere to friggin be seen..

He stopped showing up as a marker on my map so he wasn't left behind, and I was certain I sent him back to Lucky 38 and not to Freeside, so I :swear: just reloaded a save prior to me picking up Cass and said screw the 2 hours worth of wandering and Cass questing.. and have Rex back now with Veronica again..

I'm done /w the game for now.. but since I didn't build around having companions I might just ditch them completely when I start playing again.. they are nothing but a pain in the :brokencomputer:

Hostile ED-E and disappearing Rex.. maybe I'll just ditch the robots and keep Veronica or Cass..

I know how annoyed you are dude, ive been researching this for myself cos the same has happened to me. I cant rerecruit ede after dead money cos he goes nuts in primm and tries to kill me and nash!
Apparently this has always been an issue with ede, if you leave him for too long at any point in the game after you recruited him, he will eventually just turn hostile randomly. Trouble is, I left all my best weapons and armour with ede, and my character was designed with NO perception skill so i could take advantage of edes perk and use those points elsewhere, but now i cant get ede back im basically crippled, and i have accidentaly copied over my save from before dead money.
I have been patient with this game and stuck with it through all its issues, but this really has made me mad, after about 350 hours, I want to DEMAND that this be fixed SOON, or its getting traded in post haste. But I know that isnt really fair to demand, but really, shouldnt this sort of thing be an important bug fix/check anyways? Especially if its an issue that has been around for a while.
