Where does your character live ?

Post » Mon Jun 13, 2011 8:02 am

Just curious where is everyone's base/home ? No mods please, I currently live at the lone wolf radio place, but i'm thinking of moving, too many geckos.

A mix of 3 : the presidential suite at the lucky 38 because that is where my companions are.
Novac, because it's easy to fast travel there to heal (sleep.) Also, you can get it very early in the game.
Brotherhood of Steel Safehouse, again it's easy to fast travel to and from and it has lots of my stuff in the lockers there. also there is a workbench and a reloading bench, even though i dont really use them very often. the trouble is, you get it quite late on in the game probably around level 20 for me. i'm now level 32 and this is the one i use most frequently.

Divides her time between Wolfhorn Ranch and Novac.
I was thinking about relocating to Coyote Mine Shack since it has a working jukebox (although why are jukeboxes actually just radios?) but theres no crafting facilities and I don't know if the storage is safe yet.

Novac does miss a campfire/hotplate for it to be perfect.

Legion safehouse is the only one provide all crafting platform, but really far away from everything else.

Abandon BoS Bunker from Dead Money is pretty good, when you need a campfire just go to Nipton or Camp Forlon Hope.

Harper's Shack is one of people's favorite, but it is surrounded by DeathClaws like NCR and BoS safehouse.

I don't have a player home. I'm more of a nomad. I can't keep going to one place over and over to retrieve my things, or heal, or anything. I heal on the way, I find ammo on the way, I pick up weapons on the way. Of course I'm no pioneer, so I don't carry everything in a Conestoga. That would be like 1000 pounds of stuff. So I store it in Wardrobes in the Lucky 38 Presidential Suite. I don't live there, but that's where I go when I want to try on a new armor, or switch out a few guns.

If I ever do find a player home, it'd have to be something with a view. Someone would say Mr. House's Penthouse. but I can't live there, the view svcks! My player home would also need to be secluded, far from the Las Vegas, and away from any enemies. I want to to be so, if I wanted to walk there, I would not have to fire a shot, or think twice about holstering my weapon. But that place doesn't exist in FNV, so I roam the wastes, homeless. Oh and I don't use campfires so if I find a home, I won't need one. :3

I stay at Lucky 38, it's around all the big-ass monsters and Camp McCarren where I chill out and kill fiends all the time (I've played too much, nothing else to do. :( ).

The Lucky 38. After staying in the tallest most beautiful location in the game, anywhere else is just an insult to my courier.

Novac, purely for the conveinience of it all. Fast travel and walk in. Lucky 38 is a PITA to get to. Travel to the strip, load, walk into the Casino, load. Go up the eleveator, load. I've got stuff there that I need to move but a too lazy to do it.

I think the BOS bunker would be the best bet though, but I've got SO much stuff in Novac that it'd take me 10+ trips to move it all. For crafting I just travel to Goodsprings.

BoS Safehouse, not the Abandoned BoS Bunker, not that, its the BoS Safehouse. (Just want to make sure)
It has a workbench, a reloading bench, 3 cots, a clean water fountain, footlockers, shelves, and lockers. What else do I need? A campfire? My survival skill isn't that high. More containers? I already have enough containers to contain all the sections of items I want to store.

I just use Novac due to convenience. Only thing it lacks is a campfire. There is one at gibson shack, which isn't too far away.

I'm using Novac for a few reasons. First, there's more than enough storage. I keep my weapons and special gear in the safe, crafting supplies in the footlocker, and ammo in the desk by the door. Second, it's centrally located. Third, it's far enough away from any faction. It would be nice if I had a clean water source, and a campfire nearby (though there's always Gibson), but it's not a big deal.

My player calls Nipton home, but he's never there. He spends most of his time wandering around; sleeping wherever and with whoever he pleases. Fisto, Santiago, Joanna, or Beatrix, it doesn't matter. Anywhere he can rest his head is good enough for him.

Ehhh, The Lucky 38 definitely trumps Tenpenny in size. Tenpenny is a classy place, but the price to live there is to high for me. I can't see bombing a town being worth a tiny room. I mean, heck, all you need to do is TALK to House, and he'll comp you the Presidential Suite. I can accept the 38 suite without guilt, Tenpenny's would remind me I sold out hundreds of lives just for a tiny as crap apartment.

I'm currently playing a nomad. I don't really need a home to store my stuff, heck I don't even have that much stuff, just my raider-looking armor, my throwing knives and the bottles of water and baked gecko meat. That sums up my possessions, the rest usually ends in a merchant's inventory whenever I meet one. Who needs guns? They're too loud anyway.

Novac is the place I most often I spend time at (live at).

Brotherhood safehouse is second.
