Although the rules state you cannot discard during the opening round you actually can in practice. This allows you stack your hand and win 100% of the time. This is confirmed on the PS3 and PC for sure.

The game is easy enough as is to just rack up caps. This just makes the game no fun at all and since the rules state you're not supposed to be able to do it, it must be considered a bug.

Thought I would add my problems with caravan here, I have bought or collected 23 cards so far including 5 for the tops deck (didnt realise i had the tops deck originally), however when i go to play a game and go to the screen where you choose what cards to add to the deck there are only three additional cards that aren't for the tops deck. not only that the three cards that are showing i dont actually have in my misc inventory. is there something i need to do on the pipboy inventory to add them to my deck?

Really? This is a problem for you? I have a quick, easy fix... don't do it.

Seriously, there are enough 'real' issues that need to be fixed to make the game even playable for some. This is a pretty minor error and not in anyway game breaking if you just use a little self discipline. :facepalm:

Did I say it was game breaking? I don't think it is. It should be a simple fix added into a patch. Maybe if I said "Hey, ignore all those folks that have crashing issues and fix this first" you're facepalm would have a point.

This is another bug related to the game. Drop them and pick them up or put them in a container and take them out again and the should disappear from your inventory and appear in your deck.

That worked a treat thanks

Anytime.
