Having problems with some quests not getting crossed out after completing them. “Join the Skulz”, “Kill the merchant”, and “Kill Jain” specifically. Is this a known bug or just a problem on my end? Edit: after killing Lars and the rest of the guards I noticed that Join the Skulz is now crossed out

I considered this as well, but on the Fallout 1 map you can see that Shady Sands is represented by a little blip in the corner of its green circle. In Fallout 2 the city takes up the whole tile and even beyond (this is hard to see on the map I posted). So this is accounted for in the map...

The lengths people will go to defend this show is insane. Reddit is full of people like this. I don’t see why people can’t just admit that they fucked up. The original developers were quick to admit when they made a mistake or something didn’t make sense, but Bethesda seems incapable of this and...

Are we sure that the scale of Fallout 2’s map isn’t just bigger? The NCR of Fallout 2 is also closer to Vault 15 AND Vault 13 than the Shady Sands of Fallout is. And traveling on the map takes longer too. (I don’t know why they put Santa Clara on this one…) Looks like Vault 15 is 4 tiles away...

I don’t think Hexer is the lead dev on this project. You may be confusing this with Fallout: Yesterday. Or maybe I’m confused.

Nothing, I was just thinking it would be cool to have the option to use First Aid in combat. I think it would make First Aid a useful skill instead of just being Doctor but worse.

True. I guess I’d change it so that using First Aid takes around 20 seconds (essentially, it would cost your maximum AP to use and would skip your next turn). Or maybe there’d be a better way to do it that takes into account how many action points you have.

Is such a thing possible? As far as I know, skills cannot be used in combat (not from the skilldex, anyway). Is this hardcoded into the game? It seems to me like this would go a long way toward differentiating First Aid and Doctor.

Maybe I’m wrong but that’s not how I remember it. First of all, he offers you a chance to join the Unity, and if you refuse then he does try to kill you. Nothing mentioned about needing the Vault Dweller to get into the Vault. Second, there is indeed a second time limit after the water chip that...

I know I’m probably too late to this but: If you wear NCR armor I think the faction reset works on him so that you can get this quest. I love tricking him into killing Manny. Also, in case you didn’t know you can wipe out the NCR at Helios One and the Legion will take over.

How is this an unpopular opinion?

I used to think Ulysses was cool but over time I came to view him as someone who’s trying too hard to be cool. But now that people don’t think he’s cool anymore I’ve realized that he is really cool.

Thank you very much! I was so used to not raising Speech higher than 80 because it was pointless in the base game.

I don’t know if this is the right thread to ask this (and I have a sneaking suspicion that my question will be ignored anyway) but I’d love to know how exactly one is supposed to convince Shadow-Who-Walks to abandon the Raiders base. The old guide just says you can convince him to leave but...

I don’t think Todd hates New Vegas. If they end up remastering 3 (which is all but confirmed at this point) then they’ll probably do the same to New Vegas.
