Lucas Oppenheimer glitch

Post » Sat Jun 11, 2011 1:53 am

So I was playing Dead Money (again) And as I was slowly walking away from the Sierra Madre (endo of the game Dog dead Deano and Christine alive, all the gold) I was attacked by a ghost trapper. When I offed him, I got the abominatable (don't think that's spelled right) perk, and then the name Lucas Oppenheimer appeared on my HUD like I was about to start shooting at him. There was no sign of Lucas. I know J. Robert Oppenheimer was the head guy in the Manattan Project (nuclear bombs) is this some long lost game file or just some random glitch?

I really hate to have to drag out this tropic line, but, screenshot or it didn't happen. My apologies. I will go look in the geck to see if there are any characters named similar to that. BRB.

Edit: Nothing so far, but I did find the names for the Granny Gangers: Irate Ida, Rancorous Ruth, Malefic Maud and Catty Clara. :celebration:
2nd Edit: Nothin under Lucas Oppenheimer. But I did find characters named Tasty Morsel and White Arrow Heart Dude. :hubbahubba:

-Gunny out.

I believe that I saw this in Dead Money as well. It was a memorable name. I don't remember if it had anything to do with the abominable perk - I think it occurred when I put Dog in position for the gala. I turned around and saw the name "Lucas Oppenheimer" in red with a red health bar underneath as if I'd targeted him before - yet he didn't exist :shrug:

Another interesting DLC glitch: I killed Veronica in hardcoe mode. Later began Honest Hearts. Halfway through the Honest Hearts quest line I received the message that Veronica had returned to Trading Post 188 and I had lost the Scribe Assistant's perk. After returning to the Mojave I can confirm that no she did not - she is still dead - lying on the sidewalk next to REPCONN HQ :evil:

I have played through Dead Money maybe 5 times on different characters but have never seen any of this so it may be something unique to a console or PS system. I play on a PC. However, I am playing through it again on yet another character so will keep an eye out for it.
