There's a safe in this safe

Post » Sun May 23, 2010 11:57 pm

I just went through Repconn HQ with my newest character (created after the latest patch). In the supply room inside the gift shop where the rocket souvenirs are there is a safe. I picked the lock and took everything. On the way out my cursor passed over it and the display said it was locked. I moved the cursor a bit and it said it was empty. I went back and forth for a bit, locked/empty, locked/empty. So I picked this mystery lock and gained access to a completely different safe. Has anyone else run into this? I've raided that place on each of my half-dozen playthroughs and never saw this before.

Just a glitch/bug. Likey when they were creating the area, the developer just clicked twice and put 2 safes in the same spot.

My head just asploded trying to realize the possibility in real life.

It might be the joke about opening a safe only to find another, smaller safe inside.

"Aspolded" is a great word.

This stuff happens in a few areas of the game. Off the top of my head, the box in Sloan which contains Pulse grenades is a "double" box; if you put the cursor just right, you can loot it twice. There's also a door in either the REPCONN Test Site or the Sunset Sarsaparilla Headquarters that is jammed open AND is locked AND can be lockpicked twice.

Yes i had the same thing happen. I was quite baffled by it none the less.

There was a spot in the farm near Searchlight that had a dufflebag in one of the barns that was doubled up/used to do that for me. I liked the "free stuff.' :)
Then patch 1.2 fixed it. :( :laugh:
