New things Options

[Lopov]

I'm creating this thread with an intention not to clutter the Where are you thread? with things we discover in the Fallout University for the 1st time and would like to share them with others. Since some discoveries may be considered spoilers, read ahead at your own risk.

I'll copy some of my own posts from the Where am I thread:

Yesterday I did some testing with reputation in FNV, and gained the Wild Child rep. in Goodpsrings. Turns out that Chet has some unique dialogue for you in this case, he says that you remind him of himself when he came to town, and as such he gives you a wholesale discount. I didn't know about this but I never had the Wild Child rep. in Goodsprings either. In any case, this discount isn't mentioned on the official FNV wiki but I found it mentioned in the Users Talk section.

I've never killed Cobb before doing the related quest so it was interesting to see that both Sunny and Trudy comment on his premature death, wondering whether it was just out of sheer fun and whether that should bring more problems to Goodpsrings. Ringo's dialogue is also slightly different when you approach him for the 1st time because Webb already killed Cobb before talking to Ringo.

And now I'm adding one event from today. Not sure what happened to the console but whenever I opened it, I saw that all previous fights have been recorded in details. I've never seen this before.

Here's a pic.

The most hilarious line is Alan Webb hits Alan Webb... ...because he tossed a grenade at a cazador and obviously hurt himself in the process.

My Lone Wanderer is spending an off-day in the Citadel. He's in the break room right now, having a snack.

There are two refrigerators in the break room, both of them set to respawn with plenty of food and drinks, yet over the years I've often wondered why there's never anything in them by the time he's hungry.

Now I know why. It's the kids! I added some kids to the Citadel, just to make it seem like families are happening in there. When Cho first peeked into the fridge there were 5 or 6 food items in one fridge. As Cho was sitting there, I kept noticing a couple of kiddos kept getting up from their table, going to the fridge, walking back to their table, and so on.

Cho just had a peek inside. An hour ago there were 5 or 6 foods in there: squirrel steak, sugar bombs, and so on. Now there are only 2 food items! Those darn kids, they took all my LW's food!

Have you looked in the kid's inventories to see if the food items are in there? Or do they actually consume it?

[Renee]

No, haven't looked into inventories, and by now Cho's far away from the Citadel.

However, after they go to one of the fridges they have been taking a seat, and then the eating animation begins.

I just read (haven't tried) that if we kill Moriarty, after about a week the place of business is changed from Moriarty's Saloon to Gob's Saloon. Can anyone confirm this?

If not, I gotta try this! Janet. Janet will off the guy; I'll just have to RP a reason why. No, VICIOUS. She'll do it. Janet's too stoned/drunk to care about Moriarty much.

[Renee]

*BUMP*, really wanna see if anyone's done the above ^^^

[SubRosa]

Yes, I've killed Moriarity on several occasions. The original sign has Moriarty's name X'ed out, and Gob's name is put above it. I think it only takes 3 days without you being in the city, so the cell can reset.

[Renee]

Beautiful, yeah gotta pwn that doofus at some point. Peown! peown!!! Bkssh!!!

Cho Zen Wan is in Super Duper Mart, maybe for the last time before the place gets taken over by the Brotherhood. 🤖 He is basically clearing the place of raiders and marauders.

Cho oneshotkilled a raider and this caused two others to go searching for Cho. Problem for them was, he already laid a bunch of mines on the market floor, and one of the raiders stepped on it. *BOOM* he got wasted.

So the New Thing is: there a second, female raider searching along with the guy who stepped on that mine. "Got what you deserved, dumbass!" she said. Never heard that before.

[mirocu]

I don't think I've ever heard that one either!

In Janet's game it is March 29, 2278 She just discovered Fordham Flash Memorial Field, which is a baseball diamond. Baseball, there are four bases to run around, and currently there's a raider running to each base, around and around the diamond, as though he's wacked-out on Psycho.

I checked Fandom to make sure this is vanilla, and sure enough one of the raiders does run from base to base.

"By sneaking up to the field unnoticed and managing to stay undetected, one can observe the raiders playing "baseball," which consists of one or more of the raiders continuously running the bases."

Weird.
