Ha ha ha I knew this was coming!

Hey, the dynamite in the DynaMit picture... is that vanilla? Good job Beth, if so. Good job modder #3,204 if not.

I like the Mit & Ringo side-by-side pic. Like a close-up during an action show on TV, ha ha

@Renee - there has to be a Lopov shot from time to time, right?

Dynamites are vanilla, they're mostly used by Powder Gangers, former prisoners that used dynamite to work on rail lines but eventually figured out that they can use dynamite for other purposes too.

Mit & Ringo stopped at Gun Runners where their Protectron Vendor, secured inside an inaccessible cabin, was selling the best weapons and ammunition in the Mojave Wasteland. Mit bought the 5.56 pistol and ammunition both for this gun and for his trail carbine.

Bidding farewell to each other, Ringo headed back to the Crimson Caravan Company and Mit headed to Freeside, the suburbs of New Vegas.

However, he was denied entry to New Vegas. Neither was he a registered citizen, nor did he have 5,000 caps to pass the credit check.

*I use a mod to increase the credit check from 1,000 to 5,000. Also, this time I decided not to do the King's quest to become a fake citizen, instead Mit decided to collect 5,000 caps.

He headed to nearby Camp McCarran, a base of NCR operations in the Mojave, and got an assignment from dr. Hildern to retrieve some important data from Vault 22. Mit teamed up with Little Buster, a bounty hunter, and they headed towards the vault but not before they rested in an abandoned motel. Too bad the room was already occupied.

The following morning it was time to move (or to fly). Little Buster had troubles keeping up with Mit.

Before heading to Vault 22, though, Mit & LB decided to decapitate Cook-Cook and Violet. Gruesome stuff but back when Mit killed them, he didn't know that those particular fiends are worth a lot to the NCR.

With heads jingling in their pockets, they took a shortcut to Vault 22. Before getting to it, they were greeted by ferocious flying hunters. They got bitten and poisoned but in the end they prevailed.

At last they made it to Vault 22.

Sneaky Mit is getting the five finger discount from the Khans!

Looks like Mit is a pretty hard core diplomat too!

Who let the dogs out?

Looks like Mit and Ringo were out picking violets...

Mit is a hottie in that pic with Cook-Cook!

But he is the Iron Chef in the end.

Welcome to New Vegas!

Looks like Mit is going to have to prospect up some caps to get into Vegas. Or maybe get a forged passport?

Mit needs to check the vacancy sign before going in any strange motel rooms!

Mit has some Hulk super-leaping in the motel parking lot! If I saw those scorpions I would jump like that too!

The verdant paradise of Vault 22! I thought that was one of the creepiest places in NV.

@SubRosa - looks like Mit took some lessons from Lucius Skyrimwalker, now he can walk in the sky too. I agree about Vault 22 being one of the creepiest places. Mit later returned to Vault 22 and I expected for its denizens to respawn but looks like once they're dead, they're gone for good.

Following a lead

"Say cheese!"

Saving Little Buster's ass

Against Vault dwellers

"Should have stayed in your own garden!"

After "failing" his mission in Vault 22 by intentionally destroying the dangerous data, Mit met with Lt. Gorobets to discuss bringing down another fiend - Driver Nephi. This is for the 1st time that my character enlisted the 1st recon to help, Nephi isn't that tough to bring down but I wanted to see snipers in action. Still, Mit needed a proof of Nephi's demise.

Ukrainian & Japanese

The NCR asked Mit to help them expose a traitor among their own officers. Mit was supposed to watch over who enters the airport control tower at night but he dozed off. Nonetheless, the traitor was still there when Mit stormed the place. Mit put the late Nephi's golf driver to good use and sent the traitorous officer on his last fly.

With enough caps jingling in his pockets and a new beret Mit was ready to march into New Vegas.

Ha ha I knew it! Does Mit Tsubishi smoke, by the way? I don't recall ever seeing him light up.



More like Not and Hot. :cheeklywink:

He smokes but very rarely. Of all my smoking characters Mit smokes the least. :returnscheeklywink:

I really enjoy some of the shots that look like 'home'. Like the red canyons and Stratosphere in New Vegas. Some great action shots as well. Mit looks pretty cool in his sunnies and new beret.

Yikes, no cheese for me!

Looks like Buster was about to be mantis dinner!

Cool to see the 1st Recon in action. I never tried enlisting their help against the 3 Fiend bosses with any of my characters either.

Looks like Mit put that traitor in the rough...

Mit is a high roller now!

Acadian it's so funny that you live in Vegas, yet have never tried Fallout: New Vegas. I remember: once I found out that FO3 was set just 40 minutes away from my home, in the D.C. area, that I had to at least see how Bethesda handled this.

... then again, silly me, thinking you'd try more than one game at a time.

Heh, you know me well! Monogamous.

I still think Detroit would have been a better setting than Boston for a Fallout game. It wouldn't even take much imagination...

I would have to buy that one, and then Misa could find Tony's and get a giant BLT, etc...

A Brahmin, Lettuce, and Tomato sandwich!

I could totally see Fallout being set in Detroit, for sure. Have any vid games ever been set there? I can see Resident Evil in Detroit. Or some other survivalistically-themed game.

Ew, suddenly it doesn't sound so delicious, lol. And, mustn't forget to mention the tomatoes and lettuce are irradiated, lol.

I don't think anything has ever been set in Detroit.

It's all fine until you'll start seeing characters from New Vegas as you'll be driving around the Strip.


They position themselves at various points around the Samson Rock Crushing Plant and you're asked to lure Nephi and his goons to the ambush where they open fire and kill all of them. The one scores the final shot, then has some unique dialogue while others regret not being fast enough. If you kill him yourself, they're still satisfied but say that they didn't even have a chance of killing him. In my case it was Gorobets that killed Nephi.

"Remember me, Benny?"

"You shot me in the head, then had me buried alive."

"First let's get rid of the gun."

"Now let's get rid of you."

This shot had me in hysterics, how did you get Benny to stick to the ceiling? BWAAHAA!!!! I love killing Benny, there are so many ways you can do it, but this has never happened in my game !!!!

I meant to applaud you on another handsome character whose personality def comes through in the screens!

This particular crawl just gives me the creeps in game and in screens, I hated going here - not just for the Cadzora swarm killing me on the way up to it, but for those horrid half plant creatures inside!

The club, Nephi's Golf Driver, has a special power attack, executable in VATS and outside, which knocks targets down but not before they "fly" for a while. That happened in Benny's case but he couldn't fly for a long time because he hit the ceiling.

In general, I'd say they managed to create quite some creepy and scary places in New Vegas, more than in FO3, except for Dunwich. The Quarry Junction in New Vegas is another example - it's not creepy, but it's scary because you never know from which direction a deathclaw will come. Even when my characters clear out the place, they can't help but turn around every time they pass through the quarry to check if any deathclaws still lurk there.
