I think I'm at least waiting for some patches to see what gets fixed.

Heh, that only DLL made NPCs and the world to look worse but it removed ALL stuttering and slowdown at all...

Thanks for the tip on mouse accel. disabling.

Hmmm the D3D9 DLL doesn't seem to be helping me much, in fact I seem to get worse now - near-locking up in battle o.o
Do you place it in the same directory where the .exe and the launcher are located? Not in My Documents/my games/falloutnv/ I hope?
directx sdk install with optional components will help you guys.

Welp... First crash.



It appeared to be one person from a distance, I got a sneak attack crit and they fell, only to reveal someone else standing in the exact same spot. X4

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.

I'm loving the varmint rifle, hate the night vision scope though. I love being able to have a scoped weapon right after the tutorial but the night vision is unnecessary with the night vision perk (which retains color instead of green tinting everything) and the fixed magnification is fixed magnification.

Anyone know how I can learn to make hollow point 5.56's and/or break down surplus 5.56's?

Huh, where did you get a scope for it? I have a silencer and an expanded magazine for it, but no scope.

Right now I use a "sniper carabine", it's basically a M4 assault rifle with a scope.

What's the best way to raise NCR rep? I hit up the solar thermal power plant, killed some dogs, and got in bad standing. I'm not being hunted, yet.

I could swear the dude in the general store in the town you start in sells 'em. I got one too.

Find a legion outpost and just wipe them out, all of them.

"Having faith" that the bridge will not fall, implies that the bridge itself isn't that trustworthy. It's not that different from "I pray that the bridge will hold my weight."

Pre-loading it right now.
Hopefully I can play it the moment I come home tomorrow (probably not).

I don't remember coming across one. I have found a fort south of the New Vegas wall that gives jobs. That helped a bit.

I sided with the NCR.
Because they are better.
Lack of freeplay after MQ again.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves.  The obvious solution is to chain the baby up at the entrance as a kobold detector.

Picked this up yesterday but I've only had a chance to play it for an hour or so (HARDCORE MODE IS ONLY MODE AND NOT ACTUALLY THAT DIFFICULT? OK) Made sure to pick the Wild Wasteland trait and my first encounter was an irradiated fridge with bones and a fedora inside.

Rocking that hat hard.

Bethesda did not develop New Vegas. Obsidian did. Bethesda added freeplay after MQ to Fallout 3 with Broken Steel etc, but since they didn't make New Vegas...
