Fallout: New Vegas

There's another condition on Repair - if repairing it will take the weapon's Condition above 100, the repair won't happen either.

Well im on pc but ill try it at some point i guess

On pc the repair happens, you just lose out because you destroy a 25% gun to repair 10% damage.

It's more profitable to use weapon repair kits. This way you don't cannibalize a couple of damaged weapons to make a single repaired one. The materials are found all over. You utilize these by selecting a weapon, then go to the aid menu and select a repair kit. The kit will be consumed and the weapon repaired.

Once you get your repair skill to 90, take the Jury Rigging perk, which enables you to repair higher value items with lower ones (ie, repair an AMR using a mangy varmint rifle).

So how do you get repair kits exactly? Buy them later on?

You can make them at the workbench.

If you have the Dead Money DLC, you can also buy them by turning in Sierra Madre casino chips.

They're crafted, you'll need scrap metal, scrap electronics, wrench and the handyman's secret weapon: duct tape.

You find the weapon repair kit holotape in the police station IIRC.

Getting frequent ctds in Honest Hearts. Is there a patch or something that can help with this? It's getting really irritating having to save every three damn minutes...

No clue.

I have begun a new NON dust game, gonna play a regular play through and try to do House at least once. Maybe...

Also Fallout: The Frontier has a new Trailer out.

Need more information, sadly.

Operating system? Bit-rate of operating system (yeah, that can be important)? PC or console? What mods (if any) are you running? What other software are you running at the same time (if on PC or Mac)?

Cured itself. Dunno how. I think turning the computer off freed up RAM that was choked up by background processes maybe? Game runs smoothest about 10-15 minutes after boot.

I also remember suffering constant crashes on Honest Hearts and Old World Blues. Those two DLCs never played well with my computer, while Dead Money and Lonesome Road worked flawlessy(well, not counting the low fps with LR).

I sold my PS 3 version of New Vegas as soon as I had done the DLC for that console. No PC version crashed as often or gave me as low a framerate as those poorly optimized pieces of digital shit.

Happy Ides of March everyone!

Likewise. Now take a spear and shove it up your local Roman dictator's arse!

This reminds me that I actually never killed Caesar. I should definitely try it sometime.

It quickly becomes moreish. Like a good snack food. You keep on wanting to try different recipes and flavours for how to kill Sallow's baldy headed ass.

Eh, I'd agree if I hadn't already found the best way - Glorious C4 method.

Annabelle. Conveniently also kills/cripples the praetorian guard around him.

I was thinking of using the Red Glare from LR instead. Would it still work?

Probably. Sallow's usually looooonnng dead before any of my Couriers set foot on the Lonesome Road to Ulysses. I had one aberrant playthrough when I never killed him at all, to my eternal almost-shame. Can't think why, to be honest. The "Legion Wins!, Despair!" ending is one of the only two subsets that I never will get, probably.

Red glare weak af. Fully upgraded mine, basically turned it into the most expensive peashooter in the world.

Were you at 100 Explosives skill? I remember doing two playthroughs, one with 45 Explosives and one with 100 Explosives. With the former, the Red Glare was weaker than the Annabelle, but with the latter, it was pretty much a death machine with all the mods.

I love the Red Glare.
