When working for Mr, House you get a mission to blow up the hidden bunker at [CENCORED] in order to exterminate the brotherhood of steel. During some research to find out how to save the brotherhood, I found no way, while still working for Mr. House, to save the brotherhood, BUT I did find out that in the memory banks a part was cut that you needed a speech level announcing that you are in the brotherhood in order for you to save the brotherhood.
I am aware that sacrifices are to be made for factions but the Brotherhood does not play a very large part in the story line, and to me, is a vital group in the Fallout main story or reason/questline. Also, you gain bad karma if you destroy them, It seems at this part of the quest there is no diplomatic or *good way* to complete this quest as *SPOILER* in the other factions you kill Mr. House, gaining bad karma.
As I have mentioned before the option is still stored in the memory banks and would require little to no effort to re-add it back in the game. This could be done through an update through xbox live/PS3 online and over the internet, and added to all new games in the factorys.
I hope you will reconsider allowing to save the Brotherhood.
