Reminder that Independent is the best path to take in New Vegas.

EVERYTHING IS COMING OUT ON MY BIRTHDAY .

Yeah, modded Fallout, Dark Souls 3. This is going to be GREAT!

When does the console work shop come out

But will it fix settlements?

not even bothering with settlements at this point

Ravioli Ravioli, another settlement needs our helpioli

tfw you put up heavy laser and missile turrets and the settlement still fails to defend itself

Settlements has been my major time-sink in Fallout 4, so this workshop stuff will benefit me greatly.

Only problems I have are with size restrictions. I can't build a junk fence around the whole of Sanctuary, and make use of every empty foundation after you clear them, and make use of every remaining house still standing. Why make it so the building area large in the first place then?

If you drop weapons and armour then scrap them in the workshop mode, it will count as deleting objects in the 'budget' meter. Do it regularly and you can pretty much build only limited by supplies and frame rate.

fuck any west coast fallout faction that isn't the NCR

House winning at the Dam is the best option for the NCR.

I am going to abuse the shit outta this. Thanks!

As long as you don't go crazy with lighting, you should experience very few frame drops.

NCR can only contend with the Brotherhood because it mass-conscripts its soldiers as cannon fodder for Brotherhood troops. It's strategy is to throw wave after wave of soldiers at the Brotherhood until they simply run out of ammo.

That's not any kind of advantage other than numerical. The Brotherhood still has the technology and training to do operations like destroy NCR gold reserves, rendering their economy worthless- all while on the verge kf being destroyed.

Well, yeah. And I'm saying that under Tandi, they didn't even have the resources to do that. They were a literal city, not a nation.

House winning at the Dam is the best option for the NCR.

NCR shouldn't have gone into Nevada so early in the first place. They should've let the inevitable House-Legion conflict play out and then swoop in afterwards.

Doesn't change the fact that in the game itself, NCR is awesome and the most rewarding faction to side with

Well house winning means the NCR still gets access to Vegas for its civilians and such - House says that NCR is vital to his own plans because they're his source of trade and economy. If he wins, the NCR can focus its resources on securing its own territory from raiders and gangs like the Legion did. Plus, Kimbal being killed and Oliver being kicked out of office would mean a negative reaction to future imperialistic efforts by the NCR after their combined failures of Hopeville and Vegas. On top of all this, the Legion would be crippled and any future expansion attempts by them would be House's responsibility. The NCR loses nothing and gains everything in a House win scenario.

Remind me, because I haven't played NV in a while. In a House victory, he gets total control over the energy output from Hoover Dam, right? When the NCR controlled it, something like 65% of the energy went back to California. Wouldn't that be a pretty big loss?

Currently, vegas only gets 5% output from the Dam. House doesn't want to cripple the NCR at all - they're his best customers (his own words). He wants their civilians to keep coming and spending money in Casinos because they are providing him the means to do what he needs. His entire goal is purely centered on making New Vegas an independant, autonomous state comparable to the Old World,and eventually colonising another planet. He has no interest in what goes on outside that area unless it directly affects him; if he were to cut off the NCR's power, it wouldn't really benefit him much. All he wants is to get the military out of Vegas and stop them annexing the place like they did to Vault City or Navarro.
