Invading super mutants - when?
I've seen some references to this elsewhere, but never seen it answered outright, so here goes. I seem to have played the quests a little out of order, because I used the water merchants to extend the time limit. So I left getting the water chip quite late.
So late, in fact, that when I arrived in Necropolis all the ghouls were dead. The refugee I came across told me that it was because "a human had killed some mutants" - but although I did kill the super mutants, all the ghouls were dead by the time I first arrived in Necropolis anyway.
Then, when heading back with the water chip, a travelling guy told me that every town had been taken over by mutants. So my question is, is there a specific trigger for the mutants starting their invasion? If so, did I trigger it by waiting too long or by visiting places in the wrong order, or is it just inevitable?
Same old same old...
