Just had the greatest moment. I was walking around the fiend area when out of no wear i was attacked. When i turned around there was a fiend in mid air about to cut my head off with a machete. Right before he was about to get me boon blew his head right off. all you saw was pieces of his head flying all over the place. laughed for about a hour about it

Fiend.
Machete.
Machete.
Fiend.

I don't follow you...

Ill make this thread a 1-up thread, time for my funny Boone story. Boone had gone running off like he usually does, not to be found until hours later when i encountered a house outside of Westside. It was night and i decide some extra sleep would be nice so i prepare to fight the inhabitants of the house off so that i can get some rest ( the mailbox was rigged so i expected a fiend or two). I was ready to go it alone, so I go sneaking into the house when what do i see. Boone ,who happens to be dressed in the same red beret and NCR Face Wrap armor as myself, comes sneaking around the corner as well. I went from a bit startled to laughing my ass of in a matter of moments. The weirdest thing was he didnt even have a marker to indicate he was a friendly so it was sort of like my reflection

I ran away from a golden gecko, terrified for my life, I ran backwards and fell down from the rocky cliff we were on, breaking my legs and losing around 80% health in the process, I look up to see him running like the penguin it is in the air down and dying from the fall.
Was pretty funny.

Also saw a radscorpion rotating on the ground so it was on it's tail and then it came running after me like it was doing a wheelie.
Near well sprayed my TV with coffee from seeing that.

On my way up Black Mountain for the first time (with that character), with a sniper rifle, when an invisible Nightkin appears right in front of me. I knew something was up because I was 'cautioned' then 'dangered', so was backing up. Anyway, I get off a wild pointblank shot off in VATS, scared out of my mind since he's on top of me with a giant sword. However, VATS triggered my Miss Fortune who put the Nightkin on his ass saving my.........ass.........and giving me time to pull out my Bleak envenomed Throwing Knife which I proceeded to throw at his pavment-kissing head. I was so happy with the turn of fortune (I guess that is the idea of that perk), and it gave me my first chance to try out my new poisonous toy.

So I just hit the Yangtze Memorial, killed off the radscorpions over by the abandoned shack, and take a moment to look out over the wasteland.


I'm minding my own business for probably a few minutes, crouched down, when suddenly I go from hidden to instantly in [DANGER]

Immediately, I turn around to see a Deathclaw... which must have strayed a good ways further than they usually do... charging at me. Panicked, I jump over the ledge and crouch down again, watching as this terrifying creature careens off the ledge chasing after me. It hits the bottom awkwardly, and gets stuck in the ground. As it flails around furiously, the woman who runs the Prospector Saloon... I can't remember her name off the top of my head... appears above my head and fires one round into the thing.

Instantly, it explodes... literally explodes... into the air. It disappears into the sky without a trace. I wait a few minutes... and it doesn't seem to come back, so I shrug and walk away laughing like a maniac.

Almost three hours of play-time later... a live Deathclaw falls out of the sky just outside McCarran Airport... hits the ground... and dies.

I stand there, stunned for a moment, before again cackling like a fool.

^ :rofl:

Last funny moment I remember having was seeing some random settler running away from a raider that was running away from a giant ant that was running away from a giant radscorpion that was halfway submerged in the ground.

Looked like something out of Benny Hill. :lmao:

So! Just moments ago!


I'm walking down the road, towards Nipton, where that huge group of raider-types is waiting.

They attack! I open fire! It's a bloody, bloody battle...

... I only fire once... and everyone is dead. Why? Because I shot a barrel, which proceeded to twitch... and then flail... and then fly around at such a high velocity so as to inflict physics-damage. The only thing which spared -me-, was diving for cover behind a rock and waiting for the barrel to disappear into the sky several minutes later.

You just have problems with animals/obejects and gravity don't you? lmfao

Most fav moment ever! first time with the snipper rifle. I was not using VSATS. I just zoomed in on the fiend and pulled the trigger. The head popped into the air and never came down.
Or if it came down, it fell back wards out of view..i prefer to think it left the stratsphere.

Narrowly escaped a deathclaw into a little shack, safe in the knowledge that deathclaws cannot open doors (it says so in the GECK, in fact).

Climbed into bed to sleep off my svcking chest wound, slept 24 hours.

Woke up to a deathclaw standing over me.

Apparently I am a very heavy sleeper.

Early in game went the wrong way down prim pass and ended up getting chased by thr 'blind' (not so much) deathclaw chasing after me i manage to get myself into the ranger camp nearby only to find out that deathclaws can uses doors to...

so not only can deathclaw uses doors they can do basicaly blind folded...
