something seems to be up with this quest, might just be a bug? im playing on PS3

in the quest you have to take a chip and activate el dorado power station. then it says return to yes man

but for some reason i cannot get into the strip, says i need a key and the door cannot be picked. boone suggested going to hoover dam which i did but theres nothing going on there

Ideas?
thanks

That's not the quest, you just hit some random bug I've not yet seen identified the cause of yet. What happens when you talk to the lead securibot? The one you talked to when you first entered the strip.

If all else fails cheat (if you are on the PC)

Go into the console (~) click on the door to the strip (name should appear in text indicating the door is selected) type "unlock" and hit enter then exit the console (~). Then try opening the door to the strip (it should work now).

Already mentioned im on PS3
and lead securibot? ive tried talking to all of them outside, they all only identify as securitron mk 2's and tell me to 'move along' or some variation =/

One securitron should be named a greeter. If that one is missing, then you are stuck.

they were all labelled securitron gatekeeper
talking to them did nothing. i had to kill them and take the key off of one of them!

That should also work. If McCarran isn't an option, anyway.

Didn't even know you could do that. I'll remember that for later.
