Fallout Veteran Playthroughs

Post » Tue Jul 23, 2013 8:55 am

Alright so in this list, please list certain ways to that you have to play Fallout, (requirements, limitations, prerequisites, etc.). I am starting a Let Play: Fallout New Vegas Veteran Playthroughs! in about a month, and I want to have some ideas for playthroughs. Please include a Rules Lists, Limits Rules, and stuff like that.

For Example,

Veteran Playthrough Title: The Legacy of Wolfhorn

FACIAL REQUIREMENTS:

-Male

-Late Thirties

-Name can be anything; Must end with last name of Wolfhorn.

SPECIAL SKILLS:

STRENGTH: 3-6

PERCEPTION: 5-8

ENDURANCE: 6+

CHARISMA: 5-10

INTELLIGANCE:5-8

LUCK:4 or lower (I'm an Agent of Chaos, you see... :devil: )

REQUIREMENTS:

-hardcoe Mode Required.

-Must make base at Wolfhorn Ranch.

-Must have level 100 Melee or Guns by Level 10.

-Cannot bring loads of ammo. only one pound of ammo for each ammo type, with rockets and nukes only one each.

-Do not accept help from Yes Man, Legion, or Mr. House.

-Must get a good rep with the Great Khans, or have them help in the final Hoover Dam battle.

-Caesar and Mr. House must both be killed sometime within this game playthrough.

BACKSTORY(This is optional,You don't need to give your playthrough a backstory.)

The man who had fought with the First Recon at Boulder City, the man who had lived it all. Thought that this was his death, that it was going to be the end here. Getting his brains blown out all over the dirt of this hodunk little town, and all over a chip. Well it ain't over, and this cowboy has got one last showdown left in him. Live in the boots of Wolfhorn, the man who fought with the NCR at the First Battle of Hoover Dam, and make sure that the NCR keeps the Dam from the bastard hands of the Legion, and make sure you cut the throats of all the Legionaires or anyone who stands in your way.

And you would just type it like this. See? Easy.

So do you have a way to play the game? A playthrough you think is unique? Post it here! :)

Thanks in advance for all the posts and comments. :)

Siding with the NCR? What are you, chicken? :D... Jk

If you're going to ration ammunitions, I would recommend going with Energy Weapons and Melee and maybe Explosives. Why wasting space bringing 3 or 4 guns when you only need ONE fully modded Laser Rifle? Go with Gehenna for Melee and get Pyromaniac... and even with mediocre crit stats (like yours :hehe: ), Gehenna x2 for crit chance and do an INSANE amount of crit damage, over time damage, CRIT over time damage + Pyromaniac... Buff Survival and overkill by coating some poison on it... Down some Rushing Water before hand and It can rips apart a Alpha Deathclaw in a flat 2 seconds and Legendary Deathclaw in 3 (if it doesn't get to your first).

And maybe bringing a Grenade Launcher, and just fill the rest of you inventory with food and grenades.

I did a quick number crunch. If you stick to your one pound of ammo limitation you're allowed:

BB 500

.22 131

.308 18

.357 28

.44 23

.45 ACP 15

.45-70 15

5 mm 59

5.56 mm 38

9 mm 34

10 mm 30

12.7 mm 16

12 gauge 13

20 gauge 15

25 mm 4

40 mm 2

In terms of getting the most damage for your pound of ammo (without doing the hard core calculations for each weapon in the game) I'd say the Ratslayer with sneak attack head shots would be your best bet with an average build but if you were willing to put a lot of points into sneak the .22 Silenced Pistol (again with sneak attack head shots) would probably be best.
