Hi guys, i've played the Asian Editon and just got the first patch of FNV days ago. I don't know exactly what has been fixed, my ED-E still didn't show up, and then i found an awkward change.
there are no more "wait in lucky 38" for choosing when you decide to be apart with companions.
it's just making things even miserable.

is it normal or just a glitch i met?

The same thing happens to me. I got patch 1.01 before i had even gotten to the point of acquiring companions, but I have never had the option of telling them to go wait at the 38. And it is annoying. I mean, realistically its not game breaking, it just requires me to do a bit of traveling when i want someone back. But still... it should work.
