ED-E my love doesn't start : Fallout: New Vegas

» Wed May 02, 2012 9:44 pm

I found ED-E in Primm and fixed it before I even talked to J. Nash. Then I completed My Kind of Town and talked to Nash who was surprised that I fixed his old robot. I asked him what should I do with it and he said, that there may be some people interested in this technology, but didn't mention taking it to Gibson scrapyard.

I completed this quest many times before in my previous FNV-playthroughs and I remember that this quest was always triggered in Primm. Or do I remember wrong? Will this quest be started by ED-E later when he starts to 'talk'?

I found this info:

To start this quest you have to go to the [Nash residence] in Primm (M3:4). There is a robot #1 lying on the table inside the building. Examine it carefully:

[Repair 65] fix it yourself or use some spare parts (you need 1 scrap electronics, 3 scrap metals, and 2 sensor modules); all these parts can be obtained or bought in Goodsprings for example;
[Science 55] bypass some of the primary systems

<Companion Protocol:: Begin> ED-E will become your companion. The robot contains some voice recording, which can be triggered when it hears certain keywords

I did everything in the same way but the quest didn't start, I'm already out of Primm.

Thanks!

I found the solution on Wikipedia, seems I missed it before:

If you repair ED-E before talking to Johnson Nash he may not give you the quest or tell you what to do next. Visiting Old Lady Gibson at the Gibson Scrap Yard will trigger the quest and the first message needed.

Sorry for useless topic!
