Most random thing ever happened to you

Post » Mon Jan 26, 2009 10:02 pm

So, what's the most random thing ever happened to you in a Fallout game? I'll start out with a few:

1. I entered Dukov's Place, and suddently there was a ****ing Enclave soldier in there rampaging his b*tches!? I was like level 8 or something and had not even met the BoS yet! D:

2. I was playing Point Lookout where i was defending the mansion, and suddently Desmond and his dogs got hostile to me! I ran out of there, waited 24 hours, and when i came back in they were still hostile! So i tried to kill him (he got unconscious), and when he got back up, i could talk to him! And if THAT wasn't weird enough, he started sinking through the floor and his head were spinning around! It was the most ****ed up thing ever happened to me in a Fallout game. x.x

No sh*t! Not made up!

I've seen that Enclave Soldier many times at Dukov's Place. He's usually hunting the Radroaches out front, though.

I had a great moment in Fallout 3 when Clover decided to let out that big yawn she does right at the moment James died in the water purifier.

Yesterday I watched Old Lady Gibson walk into her house and then one of the dogs decided to walk straight up to the door, stand there and bark constantly - exactly like it was asking her to let it in.

In NV a Gecko that spawned on the roller coaster in Primm made my day.
Or when Ol' Vic followed me everywhere around the map.

In FO3, on the steps in the citadel, dog meat poking through my PA chest, his head drooling down the plate.
Turning the character into some kind of hybrid dog mutant, as the elder gave his rallying cry.

In FO1 getting the Red Ryder at level one, just after the vault 13 cave, leaving me with a character that killed every creature apart from a few rats with a BB gun.

When the wasteland settler bits dropped from the sky and landed at the base of the Dino gift shop stairs with that lovely "Squish/crunch" sound. Had loot too.

Not truly random, since I guessed it might happen, but luring an enemy to the Dinky dino and having Boone fire at it from the dino's mouth (before hiring him). That was just fun/awesome.

Every time Victor or the Star Cap man accosts me in mid-battle.

Wandering around near the ant raceway and suddenly a Powder Ganger peeks their head over a cliff to tell me he has a present for me, and then starts tossing dynamite. Then he was dead.

(edit: maybe it's tiny bit spoilerish, so here's some tags)

A day after dealing with Jeanie May, I'm walking on the road between No-Bark's shack in Novac & Old Lady Gibson's, when I see Jeanie's jawbone lying on the road. Seriously...that's a long way for a piece of body to go flying to....

When I just started the game a glitch caused Cheyenne's eyeballs to hover beside her head..
A similar glitch caused an NCR trooper that was supposed to be hanging on a cross to hover, quite noticeably, behind the cross.

And of course anything from Wild Wasteland, but that's intentional.
Another very random intentional thing would be a nightkin trying to sell me wind-brahmin.

the most random thing that ever happened to me in FO3 was when i threw a gernade to a deathclaw and it went well over 100 feet in the air and fell to its death, this has only happened to me once in FNV with a gecko it would awesome if this could be a perk :flamethrower:

When Old Pete just stared at me and I couldn't talk to him and he couldn't move. And he was in the final Battle of Hoover Dam.

At a low level I was wandering quarry junction and fell off a rock and ended up landing on the deathclaw mother who I rode until I was whipped off and brutally murdered

What I did was to shoot at the Legion on my way to Novac downing a couple , the remaining Legion fired back with a vengance, finding I was very low on health I ran to Novac loosing the Legion pursuers in the process.
I went and hid in the dinosaur and thought that a chat with Boone would be in order, I had just started when the Legion heavy mob spawned in the mouth with us, and all heck broke loose.
It made for an interesting 30 seconds.

:D

At the moment I'm wandering about mopping up the details before embarking on the final quest and while sniping the Powder Gangers in the NCR Correctional Fac. one of them came out of the second cell block and when I shot him he sort divided in two, one him walking on, the other falling down dead. I shot him twice more and he still kept walking and splitting until he was out of sight behind a building. I put the rifle down and got three "critical shot" and "you gained karma" messages.

was walking along the dry lake area where the lonesome drifter is, i went near him, he was a little left of the fire standing up, he stared at me and started moonwalking backwards then went to bed.

also, when entering the vegas area, the clouds started turning purple for a little while :mellow:

I completed For Auld Lang Syne, told the Remnants to help the Legion, I ended the game to where I had to wipe out everyone (either House or Independent).

Once the battle at Hoover Dam was underway and I got to the part where the Remnants are dropped off, Dr. Henry appeared in the white Enclave suit from Fallout 3 and after I killed him another version of him appeared alongside me with I think Leather Armor and began fighting with me.

LOL

I was doing crazy, crazy, crazy at black mountain and when I was killing one of the super mutants with this machine it flew straight up into the clouds and fell back down to his death lol

Another funny thing was when I got close to the top of the mountain a group of super mutants just completley ignored the fact that I was there even when I started shooting them.

As I posted in another thread, a radscorpion showed up in goodsprings at the beginning of the game. Killed Sunny & Easy Pete. The reload of the save still had it showing up, so I had to restart the game.

Spoiler
After buying the Weathers family out of slavery
, I decided to follow them to see where they ran off to.
Spoiler
(After all, I did technically own them.)
The family ran straight in to a Bighornher herd and were all killed. It was hilarious, but sad, so I reloaded from right before they ran off and escorted them all the way to their destination. Luckily my gun skill and such were so high, because I often had to kill several things in one go in VATS or the family would be killed.

I also loved when I fought
Spoiler
Benny's bodyguards
. I had thought to give myself a silenced .22, but not Arcade. So, what does he do? Picks up a pool cue and slaughters one of the guys while I'm still fumbling around being surprised by the betrayal. (Naive, I know.)

Well in Gimmorah
Spoiler
I found the dead hoker before, then went back to her room, she was alive and walking around and speaking. I intereacted with her and just got the "this woman is dead, it appears she was tortured" blah blah.

I found that funny.

I went to drag the corpse of Ranger Esteban Morales, but it got hit in the firefight, I had bloody mess. I didn't know what to do, so I picked up the largest chunk and carried it back...
