Small gripe

Post » Sun Mar 06, 2011 5:22 pm

I enjoy the game (Bugs and all) I just wish 2 things 1) The currency in the game was a bit more dynamic. Like being able to alter how much the exchange rate goes for (like making counterfeit bottle caps, blowing up a NCR printing press, or setting fire to a tent of Legion gold coins etc.) and 2) having more options for people to help you in the final battle as an independent. What do you think?

I was wondering why you can't make counterfeit caps. That would've been a cool addition to that particular quest (not going to elaborate since it is a spoiler) and that's certainly what I expected as an option.

For sabotaging the Legion's currency though it should be a quest where you dump a large amount of lead into the mix for the coins... Or perhaps the ability to add radioactive materials to the mix in order to slowly poison the Legion. If you wanted to destabilize the NCR's currency however, you'd want to print more money. That way the money becomes worth even less (Germany did this to England during WWII by having prisoners forge the British currency and dropping the counterfeits on England during air raids).

Certainly a neat idea.

Yes but...

Spoiler
He's saying that he'd like to manipulate currencies as an option in the game... Not just sabotaging a bottle cap machine. You have to admit, that would be pretty cool.

I can shoot people with Legion money. May not be the sort of manipulating you are looking for.

These spoilers are intriguing. I've explored quite a bit of this game (or so I thought,) but I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

I like that method too by the way.

You'll get there. It's a decent enough quest. Just too uneventful in my opinion. The idea that the OP proposed would be an excellent way to expand on it, which is why I mentioned it.
