I definately do see that, but then that raises a question for me. If the outpost if nuked then why are the statues that are right there still showing?

Well nuking the Mojave Outpost would be so stupid, even if it is bigger lore wise. It is just an outpost where some people stay, what a waste of a nuke. McCarren would definately be better, but then that would probally destroy New Vegas so that is out of the question.

According to The Burned Man the Mojave Outpost is the only way for the NCR to mobilize in or out of The Mojave Wasteland. The Divide, Death Valley, and Big Mt prevent any other passage. They have to take the 15. If he nukes it, they are [censored] beyond all belief.

From what I understand, isn't the pass the only functioning access point from the core to the mojave? Nuke it and you completely isolate the mojave. For what reason, I have no idea, but that's what would happen.

I think the nukes might be hitting something other than Mojave Outpost, probably the Fort as suggested earlier. I don't think those crappy statues would be standing if a nuke went off right next to them...

It just seems much easier to walk in there and kill the 20 people yourself. It also seems that the nuke is infront of it or to the right of it (from the position the camera is in)

The Big thing here imo is that two nukes are going off at once, not just one, meaning you can probably nuke two places on the Mojave :flamethrower: :flamethrower:

Just killing the people wouldn't do anything. If he creates a giant impact crater or irradiated zone, there will be no way around it. The Divide and Death Valley have to be blocking passageways through Sandy Valley and Pahrump and Big Mt must be preventing them from crossing 95.

It amazed me that this wasn't a disappointment. Considering how hyped I've become I was sure it was going to be a let down but had hopes since I was uber psyched about OWBs and the only thing that disappointed me about that was what was not included do to budget.

I'm thinking this is going to be a Van Buran where the nukes are going to launch and you have to decide who gets the fallout.

after looking at the Rockets Red Glare many times, it is in fact an Explosive weapon. No, Those Lasers you see at 0:57 are indeed from the enemy, and another one attempting to torch you. It seems to be modifed everytime you upgrade it, so hell, gonna be lots of fun for Explosive fans like me XD :celebration:

If it's as difficult as Bergman is implying, I wonder if I should go with my original plan of Combat Armor Mk.II that I can throw away or go all out with Remnant's power armor.

Hm…decisions.



Every time I play an RPG, I always try to make the canon protagonist on a dead-is-dead playthrough, but they never make it.
My Courier actually has. Done everything and still kicking. I am NOT dying to this!

I want to go balls-out with everything in my arsenal, which means I'm going to have to scramble to get power armor prepped as I'm going to be doing this first as part of my Let's Play and I haven't completed the Brotherhood questline yet. It's gonna be a busy few days! :D

As I doubt I'll be able to reach Enclave Power Armor, I'll probably go with T-49 or the Courier 6 Power Armor.
