People say they are in it for money and power. Fact is all the factions are. There are just little things that set them apart. People say ncr just want money form high taxes and will just drain resources which is true but we live in that same world there is one group we pay taxes and we are protected. So i dont know why people some here hate ncr. Its already been proven that if you make socitty independent every thing falls apart. NCR is needed to otherwise it would be more unstable and crazy as shown in yesman ending.

I honestly don't like the holier-than-though attitudes of some of the higher ups/high ranking officers. Which is why the majority of the time, I just get my Vet Armour and wipe them out. :whistling: Yes, the Mojave needs order, but what it doesn't need is a bunch of self made beurocrats looking to line their pockets with caps. :sweat:

Yes but who else does it go to then?

Mr house gets rich and same thing happens
Yesman will get power
Or legion which will enslave and murder everyone.

fixed.

Uh huh yeah I got it, dont worry about it ma'am i'll take the rangers out tonight and we'll deal with it. *sets down radio* Sorry there I was just taking care of some things with Colonel Moore, official ranger business.

Now what is this crap about NCR just being out here in the Mojave to line our pockest with caps? Take the fact that we've kept the wasteland free from the Legion for the past four years and restored the dam to working order for the first time since the great war and I think some of the higher ups have earned the right to be a little proud. Sure i'll be the first one to tell you that the likes of Crocker, the so called "General" Oliver, and even Kimble basiclly have their heads shoved up their own ass but that doesn't dismiss all the hard work of the troopers who are barely even getting two weeks of training before getting shipped out and thrown into the middle of whats probably the biggest war since the big one some two hundred years ago, not to mention Chief Hanlon and the rangers with everything they've done.

To see the results of governments such as the NCR, just look out the window. The NCR simply wants the Mojave for Hoover Dam, and to possibly venture into Caesar's Land(slowly) Without the Dam, they don't give a flying crap.

Sorry, I didn't mean to generalize my statement at all of NCR, I actually like NCR, its people like Crocker, Oliver, and Kimbal that leave a sour taste in my mouth. I mean if it weren't for the interactions with them, I'd have a very heavy NCR playthrough, but conversing with them just makes me want to put a hole in their head.

P.S.- I also make it a point to exhaust all NCR Quests AND help train the Misfits each playthrough.




Mr House is using the money to help fuel the economy. At least he's attempting to keep a peice of Pre War History alive and relatively safe.

Yesman only got the power because the Courier walked away, and honestly, it becomes the peoples New Vegas anyway.

Legion will kill and enslave all profligates, not everyone, hard to have an empire when you don't have subjects. And quite ho0nestly I'd rather have Caser running New Vegas, whom actually cares for his people, and I use that term loosely as I've seen many different sides, than someone like Kimbal, Crocker, or Oliver who looks at all NCR Citizens as dollar signs. Case and Point - the town of Sloan is left without work because the NCR doesn't see fit to send in an force, granted deathclaws can tear up a normal NCR Ranger, but even then put maybe one or 2 Veteran Rangers there with AMR + AP Rounds and the Deathclaw problem is fixed. Wereas Ceaser would've just sent wave after wave in to take care of the problem so he could have what was his again.

*Headshots fiend* Thats understandable, trust me im friends with some of the rangers that act as Kimbals bodyguards and believe me, there has been more than one occasion where they've been tempted to shoot him themeselves.

Also kudos on training those guys at camp golf, I saw them doing a drill a few months ago and wow they were bad, looking much better now though.

Honestly can't say I blame them, his arrogance is palpable.

Thanks haha, I assure you, it was no easy feat. Expecially considering they confused the "Dummy" Grenades with the "Live" Grenades.

Mr. House is already rich. Nothing about that changes. The boon there is that he's planning to use the money to actually rebuild civilization, and possibly even find us a new, untouched planet to live on.

This x10000. House isn't this big ass Egomaniac the NCR and Legion make him out to be, his primary concern is the continuity of the Human Race.

Exactly, what people never seem to think is what exactly House will do with his caps; it's not like he can buy himself a yacht. For better or worse it can only be injected back into the community. Even his interplanetary idea, he can't go with them, he's wired into his chamber even if he wasn't what he was.

As for the NCR, whilst things would improve greatly, let's not pretend that they are here for anything other than the Dam ultimately. Sure, some of the grunts might be doing it to help but at the end of the day the higher-ups want Hoover Dam and Vegas. If you listen even the NCR citizens love to gloat about Vegas, "becoming the sixth state of the Union. Yeah!"

Exactly, the entire idea of House being an egomaniac is entirely farsicle. In many instances his plans are better than an Independant Vegas.

His obituary leaves a sour taste in my mouth every time. How anyone could be so self-centered as to have his own obit all ready to go, not to mention heaping praise upon praise on himself, yet claim to be working for the betterment of mankind, is beyond me.

Yes the NCR has problems, primarily with the bureaucrats, but around the Mojave there are a lot of good-intentioned people trying to make a sincere difference in the world. I, like them, joined to help people survive. House is all about his profit margin, the Legion clings to a false god and ideals that were outdated before even the Great War, but at least the NCR makes an honest effort to change lives.

House is a pre war billionaire, and is rich anyways. I think if he can blow 800,000 caps in 1 year looking for the platinum chip, I don`t think he needs to worry about his profit margin.

Most of those good intentioned people dont even want to think about a Mojave controlled by the NCR, they preffer to be independent,

Starting RobCo and inventing robots that improve everybody's lives. What a selfish jerk, that Robert House.
