You always make Primm Slim sheriff right guys?
Is there really any other choice that compares?

Also Helios one you always give it to the whole region right?

So I'm working on a little realism mod for NV, gonna post about it in NV threads to get some suggestions.
Last time I asked for suggestion on weapon damage values, but fuck both /k/ and you guys are fucking useless so I did everything myself.
Anyways feel free to post some suggestion and whatever.
List of changes I've done/plan to make right now:
Weapon skill no longer modifies damage, only spread.
HP formula is changed to 1+10*END for all humans, no HP from levels.
Sneak attacks are just guaranteed crits, rather than vanilla double crits of death
Crits apply bleeding damage, each weapon has a bleeding damage equal to its normal damage in poison-like 1HP/sec form.
So if you get critically hit with a 9mm pistol which deals 13 damage, you will suffer 26 damage and additional 13 damage in next 13 seconds.
Bleed damage also bypasses armor (it's not a feature, I just can't make it work differently)
If the armor DT is equal or higher to the damage taken, you take no damage at all as opposed to vanilla 20%.
Balanced by making armor degrade and lose it's DT at much faster rate (Power Armor is an exception, now it feels like a real tank but you can still get one shot by crit .308 or .50 to the head, also it slows you down considerably), only high tier armors like combat armor etc. can make you resistant to anything.
Weapon condition increased, now affects spread and chance to jam on each shot, not only reloads
Carry weight formula is now 0+10*STR to encourage smart looting (best weight/value ratio like chems etc.) and smart equipment choices (What kind of weapon based on the weight and the ammo used, how much weapons, how much ammo, how much food/water, what kind of armor etc.)
The biggest change I want to make is to change pretty much every damage/DT value in the game on all armors and weapons, but fuck me if it's not a lot of work.
So far I changed the damage on all firearms, based on caliber (with slight variations, longer barrel-more velocity)
>>318671280
>giving it to the NCR
>Fantastic gets promoted to Hoover Dam
Giving it to the NCR is the worst possible choice.
Giving it to the whole region is perfect : The NCR has a secondary electrical supply so they stop caring about Helios. Westside and Freeside also get their share (If you give them full power it will be totally useless to them : Too much energy will go to waste), and no crazy fuck will try to get Archimedes back online.
>>318670210
The prison dude is a vigilante who ends up killing people he doesn't like.
Primm Slimm is the best choice for Sheriff.
It's kinda sad that every NV thread devolves into Fallout 3 vs NV shitposting, and now Fallout 4 vs Fallout 3 vs Fallout NV shitposting.
I'm not asking for a hugbox, but surely people are sick of having the same argument over, and over again.
>>318671538
I'm usually siding with House, but it's still good to have friends out there. NCR is not going to be completly driven off, just the military. House himself says they are his best customers and he wants it to stay that way.

Fun fact, a cut portion of NV includes power in Freeside cutting off after 10pm and coming back on in the morning.
This stops if you send the power to Freeside. This is referenced by Mr New Vegas on the radio in the current game, but the feature was left unimplemented.
I'm pretty sure one of those "New Vegas uncut" mods restores that though.

Separate the armor and the head DT, it's fucking crucial.
Taking zero damage because a bullet won't penetrate your armor is not how it works. At least 5-10% must go through, your body still absorbs the fucking impact.
That carry weight formula is fucking retarded. An average joe with 5 STR is supposed to be able to only lug 50 lbs around before his speed gets reduced into crawl? Don't make me laugh. The best thing you could do is make the movement speed decrease gardually as the carry weight increases past the certain limit, though I really don't know how doable is that. Implementing a fatigue mechanic like arwen did wouldn't hurt too.
>>318673228

>>318673389
>Separate the armor and the head DT, it's fucking crucial
Wish I could mate, I hate that fucking system as much as you do, but it's beyond my shit modding skills.
I'm going to play with Project Nevada though, and it makes it so headshots bypass DT if head in unprotected.
>Taking zero damage because a bullet won't penetrate your armor is not how it works. At least 5-10% must go through, your body still absorbs the fucking impact.
That's not how I imagine it though.
If your armor has 10 DT and you get shot with a 13 damage shot, the bullet failed to penetrate and that 3 damage is impact.
Now if you have a 13 DT armor, it means your armor is so vastly superior that it's basically like getting cut with a razor while wearing a thick coat. Don't tell me you are even gonna feel it.
It's really flexible that way.
I'm not going crazy with this, pretty much nothing except for power armor will make you resistant to any rifle caliber bullet, and very few armors will make you resistant to even one or two pistol calibers.
>An average joe with 5 STR is supposed to be able to only lug 50 lbs around before his speed gets reduced into crawl?
If by "lug" you mean "run around indefinitely while being capable of jumps and combat".
I might up it just a little, I will think about it. Maybe to 15*STR, we will see.
>The best thing you could do is make the movement speed decrease gardually as the carry weight increases past the certain limit, though I really don't know how doable is that.
I might try, but my modding skills don't really go beyond changing values in GECK.
>Implementing a fatigue mechanic like arwen did wouldn't hurt too
I don't really want to make things too complex. It's going to be a simple mod, the main goal is to change the values because all the other mods are just lazy 100x damage modifier on head and such.

>>318675007
Reputation is infinitely more important than Karma.
Karma in 1/2 was just a neat little tracker thing hid in one section of your character sheet, it just told you a little bit of extra info on your character. What actually mattered was your reputation. Same thing with NV
Then Bethesda decided to say fuck it and removed both so now anyone can do anything and it doesn't matter because who the fuck wants choice and concequence in an RPG?
>>318674780
>Now if you have a 13 DT armor, it means your armor is so vastly superior that it's basically like getting cut with a razor while wearing a thick coat. Don't tell me you are even gonna feel it.
That's not how physics works. The force of a bullet is going to have to go somewhere when it connects; even bulletproof vests and military plate armor leave bruises or even cracked ribs with higher ballistic rounds
>>318668387

>>318675989
>The force of a bullet is going to have to go somewhere when it connects
Yes, but it doesn't mean it's going to be powerful enough to substract 1 damage from a 10-100 HP pool. I can't make it lower and it's negligible.
It's like saying a 9mm fired at a tank has to deal at least some damage to the crew since they are connected to the tank, Yes they are connected and they will feel the impact of that round, but it's neglible. Same with the power armor.
>even bulletproof vests and military plate armor leave bruises or even cracked ribs with higher ballistic rounds
>higher ballistic rounds
Did you read my post?
I don't intend to make anything (save for power armor) resistant to any rifle caliber.
As an example, modern millitary plates are capable of taking rifle calibers, while also being able to take weaker pistol calibers and shrapnel with relative ease.
And so the combat armor might be virtually resistant to things like .22 and 9mm (as lond as the plate is ok), but 5mm or 5.56 is still going to fuck you up a little.
>>318673393

I know its a shit binary choice, but which ending did you pick for HH?
What do you think is best in the long run? Personally I think wiping out the White Legs is the most logical thing to do.

>>318678069
Wipe out White Legs of course.When our Lord entered the temple and found it polluted by money-changers and beasts, did he ask them to leave? Did he cry? Did he simply walk away? No. He drove them out. It is one thing to forgive a slap across my cheek, but an insult to the Lord requires... no, it demands correction.

>>318678069
wipe out the fucking white legs
if i had my way everyone in HH would be dead though, including joshua graham for calling me a fucking gentile, goddamn jew pig.
you know what to do
>>318678069
Best long run choice is leaving Zion, I think.
But the only reasonable one from a player's perspective and the short term is to wipe out the White Legs, especially if you found the Survivalist's last log.
>>318678627
He's a Mormon.
>>318678069
Wipe out White Legs, fuck running from them like pussies.
Daniel's unhappy either way.
>>318678761
then why does he say Gentiles, which is exclusively used by jews? Mormons would say Non-Members, plus they are fighting over ZION

Benny shot you in the head and tried to kill you. And then when you came back for revenge, he didn't see anything fishy about you wanting to sleep with him.
Benny did everything wrong.

How accurate is that?

>>318678069
You know, usually I'm against war and conflict because it's just pointless a waste of resources and good people die on both sides.
I don't give a fuck about Grahams reasoning because he just has some serious anger issues which he tries to justify in every way he can, first with the Legion and now with the Religion.
Randall Clarks story didn't make this decison easier either- one could say he would want the Sorrows to defend themselves and cared about Zion, but others might say he cared about them more than Zion and it's not worth it.
But White Legs man, they are fucking different. They are not your usual enemy at war, who fights just because he was given orders and doesn't really want to.
They are fucking trash, they don't want do anything themselves. They don't want to settle and grow crops/hunt because it's so much fucking easier to just steal it all, and now they are trying to impress the Legion and get even more benefits.
And even Legion sees them as trash. Killing them is a right choice.
>>318680215
The South Park Book of Mormon special has actually been praised by some Church of Latter-Day Saints groups for being an attempt at accurate depiction of real problems mormons face dealing with assumptions of ignorant non-Members, iirc
So on that front it's pretty alright

Actually incredibly accurate, albeit presented in a satirical manner.
They did indeed believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of the lord and did have the tablets, then promptly fucked off to Utah because nobody else wanted to live in their society of multiple wives and no alcohol.
Granted, polygamy is no longer part of Mormonism outside of one-off freak compounds, but the rest of it is still true.

South park may be meme tier, but honestly the Mormon episode is pretty much spot on,

That quest was originally supposed to matter more, but it didn't get to release. If you powered up freeside+westside they would have lights at night, and the amount of thugs running around would drastically decrease. If not powdered, those zones would have been warzones.

Too lazy to dig it up right now but I think J. Sawyer mentions on his tumblr page that most of the voice acting work was handled by Bethesda.

Please leave
So when you replay for like the fifth time, do you guys try to avoid some quests?
Like especially if you're trying to rp or don't want to help out NCR with their shit for the millionth time - but at the same time I feel like if you start skipping out on that, your time will just be spent wandering around prospecting.
>NCR salvaged power armor has all the servoes taken out
>so it doesn't support its own weight, doesn't provide strength bonus, is a real bear to wear
>really heavy, but the protection it offers is damn good
>NCR heavy troopers carrying Gatling guns like they're BoS paladins
I'm just not feeling it, guys.
>>318684090
The Gunners use vertibirds as well.
>>318684252
Honestly, I know the game so well at this point that I basically plan the journey from start to finish and rely on mods and shit for emergent scenarios.
>>318684056
>Then you can fight him to the death in the arena or crucify him.
OR you can literally beat him to death with your fists while he's tied up. It's what I did and it was very satisfying.

Things like this really put the difference in Obsidian and Bethesda's quality of writing in perspective.
Are sex mods as good as skyrim ones? I swear to good I get super horny everytime i play gamebryo rpgs
>>318684290
At the very least they don't seem to be frontline soldiers. You mostly see them as sentries at McCarran and Forlorn Hope. It's probably no big deal to carry all that weight when you're just standing around all day.
>>318684086
They did a really good job of choosing then
>>318679754
>they cut benny coming back to kill you if you let him free
would have been fucking perfect, anyone who trusted him after he tried to kill them twice deserved it
>>318684290
Well as long as they just stand their ground they should do fine...
I just wonder how the fuck they would work if they ever have to go in campaign.
If you manage a truce between the NCR and the BoS, the Republic gives back all of their salvaged power armor anyway, so it musn't have been very valuable to them.
Hell, I bet this stupid idea was just General Oliver's, so that he can scorn the Rangers and have (heavy) troopers on the frontline, not Hanlon's boys.
>>318684440They ate them
>>318684423
Beating a restrained man isn't very honorable, Anon. I mean it's pretty much the same thing he did to you, except he used a gun like an even bigger pussy.
>>318684506
Eh. They're supposed to be vanguard soldiers, and veterans at that. I figure you see them like that just 'cause the NCR isn't really waging assaults; they're preparing for the big battle.
Still, giving them heavy weapons seems a bit weird.
>>318684252
If it doesn't make sense for your character to pursue the quest, don't pursue the quest.
>>318684440
I only found like two or three of those entries which I skimmed through. I only found out later how great it was, so I blame it on most entries you usually find being boring.

>theycallmelinton asked: Just a quick question - you mentioned in a semi-recent answer that there were some mix-ups in the F:NV voice recording process. Are there any anecdotes or issues that cropped up during that time that stand out in your memory?
Oh, nothing that dramatic. It was just a huge undertaking (~65k lines of spoken dialogue) that unfolded over several months at multiple studios. Occasionally a character would wind up with the wrong voice type (e.g. kid instead of adult) or half their lines in a different voice. Because of the sheer volume of characters and lines, it was hard to catch everything.
>melnorme asked: Why didn't General Oliver have a unique voice actor? You couldn't find somebody to do a quick Patton impersonation? "Generic Bethesda vaguely African-American voice actor" is not who should be saying the last spoken lines in a game before the ending slides.
Fallout: New Vegas had ~65,000 lines of spoken dialogue. To record all of the lines, we/Bethesda had four studios recording VO concurrently for a few months. It was a huge undertaking and unfortunately a few actors/parts got mixed up in the process.

Being inside a tank is different to wearing clothing that prevents bullet penetration, you are fucking retarded to even make that comparison.
Don't get all sassy "did you read my post" when you clearly don't know shit about what you're doing. Your mod's values all sound wrong.

any mod recommendations? probably will go independent this time

>>318684791
Gotta agree with you. Even being inside a tank is no picnic. You can definitely still be knocked out or killed by the concussion of shells hitting the hull.

Nah there was cut content about him but it was all about him screwing you over if you left him alive

I don't think so. You might be thinking of the cut content where Ulysses would join you after LR.

T51b is the standard model of in-game power armor.
>>318678675
I'll be sure to do this playthrough after the semester ends.
>>318685394
What're you talking about? Looks like the regular T-51 with some kinda texture mod.
>>318677917
they do that shit in third world countries all the time, they don't have the generating capacity to have shit on all the time so you usually have only a certain number of hours of power a day depending on how shit of a third world country you're in.
Apparently ISIS territory gets 2-4 a day.

His bodyguards were Chairmen, though. He hung the Khans out to dry midway through the first act.

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea we wept when we remembered Zion.
Remember, O lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem who said, "Raze it, raze it, even to the foundation."
O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed. Happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
Do you know what that means ?
>>318685490
Fuck, Graham was the best. Him and Clarke really made Honest Hearts good.
>>318685758
Not really. The spears are just shitty, low damage and harder to aim guns. People will still take 10+ spears to drop.
>>318685758
On a low level, low health faggot like Swanick? Sure
>>318685892
I love how Graham just goes full Old Testament on motherfuckers

It's not about grammar, it's about Swanick being a faggot.
So is Benny the definition of 10 PER 10 CHA 1 LUC?
>>318686278
It sort of feels like finally finding Benny is the end of the "real" quest. Everything after is just superfluous. For whatever reason your character just decides to go along with these factions instead of going back to their old job.
>>318684618
>it's followed by nothing but cold ambush reports
>>318686558
Well why the fuck not? The major factions are offering you their favor for your services, you might as well take them up on the offer.
So if the Southwest is ever revisited, what do you think will end up being the canon ending of the main 4, House, Yesman, Legion, or NCR?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXlrqM1N9No
Is there a better character?
>>318686345
I dont like FO4 either, I didn't really like any of the fallout games. The combat was just too boring and it's mostly walking around in a bland desert.
Too casual for me sorry, gonna pass...
>>318684791
>Being inside a tank is different to wearing clothing that prevents bullet penetration
Yes, because it's on a much bigger scale. That's pretty much it.
>Don't get all sassy "did you read my post" when you clearly don't know shit about what you're doing.
Well, do you?
Because accoridng to your "military plates leave bruises and cracked ribs" those guys should be lying on the ground right now:

Modern hard armor is more than capable of dispersing the energy well enough to take smaller calibers at ease. Soft armor not so much, but it's a diffferent story.
Powe armor is supposed to be a literal walking tank.
>Your mod's values all sound wrong
I didn't post any except for the HP formula which has no meaning without respective damage values, and carry weight formula which I'm still thinking about since it's hard to estimate with how much weight your average joes can run like it's nothing.

>Joshua Graham: In a world filled with misery and uncertainty, it is a great comfort to know that, in the end, there is Light in the Darkness. Every day we move one step closer to our Lord. We must do our best to follow in His footsteps and teach others how to the same. For many of us, the road is a difficult one but the path is always there for us to follow, no matter how many times we may fall.
>Courier: Do you ever "fall"?
>Joshua Graham: Every day. Some days... are harder than others.
The writing is always one of the best part of the dlcs, one of the reasons I like old word blues is so much is the feeling of hope, instead of bitching about muh evil technologies like a brotherhood bitch, the courier can use the big m technology to do good.
>The Courier watched over the Big Empty for years to come, caring for it, and keeping its discoveries safe until they were needed to help others. Which had always been Big MT's purpose. Past the laboratories and Science, it had always been intended as a place to build the future of all mankind.

>>318685564
I believe he thinks that you can't get the T-51 in New Vegas which is why you'd need TTW to have it. However,
>>318685394
You can get normal T-51 in a ton of ways, it can be found at Black Mountain, Hidden Valley, Nellis, and REPCONN.
You can also get T-51B from the vendor at Hidden Valley, the Brotherhood safe house, or the Deathclaw Promontory (which is also the location of the only other Remnant's power armor in the game if you don't complete Arcade's quest.)

>>318686961
Either House or Yesman
They don't want to make the NCR too sprawling because it begins to limit their options; nor do they want anything directly established about the Legion - it's pretty clear Ceasar was Obsidian's pet character and they want to do more with him/his legacy before they make him go full Emperor or make the Legion the next NCR
Ulyssey's speech and actions also really heavily imply Yesman, the Courier is set to become a wasteland legend like Vault Dweller/Chosen One
