Companion Idea

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 7:51 pm

You help Sarah Weintraub over come her agoraphobia and she agrees to travel with you but before she can leave with you, you, have to go out and find someone to tend to the Vault 21 hotel. Maybe her associated perk could have something to do with luck or Gambling seeing how thats what her Vault was geared around.

AHHH!! I screwed up the Title! it should read Companion Idea.

I liked her as well, but I don't think there really is a base for making her a companion. Too much of a flat character, I think.

(Not flat like "lying on her back-flat", you know what I mean.)

Also she really isn't a fighter. Someone like Sunny Smiles I'd love to have as a companion.

Screw that profligate, what we need is Dead Sea and Anthony as companions! (We seriously don't need another one that's going to be against Legion...)

Isn't Dead Sea dead boring? And Antony is the weirdo with the dog, right? Found both of them a little strange and boring, but I would've loved Vulpes Inculta as a companion.

I do love Dead Sea's reaction when I tell him to "carry on" though xD

Boone is boring yet people love him. :shrug:
And Anthony is just flat out weird... Which is why I want him. :D

But Vulpes?
He's like what? The fourth most powerful man in the Legion. (Caesar>Lanius>Lucius>Vulpes)
He can't be a companion, wouldn't make sense considering who he actually is.
I would love to have him as a companion as well but it's just not being very realistic.

Dead Sea on the other hand could always be told by Caesar to join up with The Courier and give a helping hand and let Severus take control over Nelson instead.
And Anthony... He's just weird... I'm sure that Caesar could allow him to join The Courier even if he is the hound master.

And hell, with the right back-story and personal quest those two could be incredible companions.
Sure Dead Sea is very very very militaristic and Anthony's voice is kinda like daggers to the ear drums but still, would be awesome companions IMO. :P

What would Talon Company do in the mojave?
And would a Talon Co member be pro-Legion? Cause if not then no. We need more pro-Legion.

I hate Boone as well xD Antony would be okay, but I would like the option to order him to keep his mouth shut. Dang, that voice plain creeps me out. I dunno, I generally don't really like Dead Sea because he's so unfriendly, even if you're with the Legion.

However, when you're working for the Legion, although you're not officially in the Legion, you're playing a very, very important role. The Courier is the one killing House, they put the Courier in charge of assassinating the NCR President. Heck, they even send the Courier after General Oliver, actually making him/her head the assault on Hoover Dam while Lanius is cowering in his tent. Seeing as how important the Courier is for the Legion, I wouldn't be surprised if they assigned one of their most important commanders (Vulpes) to keep the Courier safe. And he's awesome, I love how charismatic his voice and way of speaking are.

I think that some downloadable content should be made to allow a second player to take control of a companion in split screen mode.
Even if it is only basic, and the main character does most if not virually all of the rest of the work.

I.E even if the second character can only take control of whichever companion the main player gives him/her, and can only wear or use what the other player gives them. Even, if the second player/companion cannot use a pip boy, or engage NPC's in the game...

The Fable series did a poor job, but at least made an attempt...

Would like to know if any of the Game Team have considered this, and if its even possible,
Or would we have to wait for the next installment, and has it even been considered for that?
Would love it if my girlfriend could just grab a controller, press start and take basic control of one of my companions moving, shooting, reloading and changing weapons...

I understand how much the game has to handle already, and how much it gives us, which is why i'd be more then satisfied with the basics above!

I don't think that can be done with the current engine, but it's a really cool idea. I hope they try something like that with Fallout 4, maybe the Skyrim engine allows such things.

I'd like the option of at least 2 human companions, or a small squad/group of some description.
My ideal would be ed-e, lily and veronica, as I love doing long range sniping so the perception comes in real handy, plus 2 hard hitting melee bodyguards...

Why wouldn't the Talon Company be pro-Legion? They go wherever the caps come from, and I imagine that they would be quite rich if they allied with the Legion. They are both morally empty, so they would be a good fit. :)

It would be pretty farfetchedhttp://images.wikia.com/pokemon/images/b/b5/Farfetch%27d.png if there would actually be a pro-Legion Talon Company merc instead of an actual Legionary.

I think that,like Boone with the NCR, a Legion companion shouldn't currently be in the Legion for what ever reason.It would make more sense than just having him ordered to be your companion because he has to.It would also leave more room for character development.

I've been thinking of a character thats an Ex-Jackal. He has a history of using explosives for raider ambushes and laying booby traps. He also has been a former(maybe not so former) cannibal due to his upbringing as a Jackal.


Also Talon Company are just Merc-[censored]s. Remember Nipton? CL doesn't like cowardice men for hire they want true loyalty. Also thats East Coast and theirs not enough lore on Talon Comp to see how far they branch out.

Also please no multi-player, and not some half baked DLC co-op either. If their was Co-op I would want it to be apart of the Vanilla Game.

I hope for a Pro-Legion characters also, CL gets no love(obviously). Maybe a retired Decanus or a brainwashed arena slave champion?

I support anything that adds more depth to the Jackals, Vipers and Scorpions. I don't like how the only interaction you have with them is getting shot on sight.
