After playing FO3 for a while I decided to try out New Vegas. It all seems pretty much the same at first, which is all good, but after a while I started noticing differences.

Firstly, trader's inventories. Whilst roleplaying what I like to call 'a bad guy' I prefer to shot and steal rather than trade and play. The only thing is, the trader who had all sorts to trade a moment ago suddenly has nothing at all, no inventory chest/box/cabinet, nothing.

Is there a way around this? In FO3 the trader's inventories were there, or on a nearby brahmin, after they were killed.

The rest are minor annoyances that I can live with, the grahics looking more cartoony, lots of buildings that are nothing but scenery, annoying invisible walls all over (though I suppose they were there in FO3, just not as noticeable), strange creatures that look like something out of pokemon (geckos). I do like the factioning though and the different weapons.

Everything else seems on par with FO3, and just as enjoyable.

Anyway, those inventory losing traders?

You kill the merchants?! :blink:
Thats just the way it is unless your on a pc, then there are mods. For us 360 and PS3 users there is no way around it. Sorry. :shrug:

With this particular character yes:)

I like to roleplay (something which this feature kind of spoils for this character) and try out all the factions with different characters. This one has no faction and just wanders the wastes doing as he pleases.

Oh, I'm on PC, so if anyone knows of a mod...
