So we get nukes in LR?
And we can effect the mojave?
"Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter."
Its so clear now!

Am I the only one hoping for a Bunker in LR way out of the way with a shiny red button that has a label above it saying: "MOJAVE".

I'd like to point everyone away from Fallout 3 and towards something that is not the stereotypical nuke.

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Bradley%27s_shack On the front of Bradley's Shack there is an Old World Flag.

I am not certain if there are others, but there are several shacks with peoples' names whom we do not encounter, I am not saying that these are directly linked to Lonesome Road, but I imagine that Obsidian has some significance to the shacks.

Maybe... Ulysses killed the shack owners? I'd just love t obe able to do something minor with the Nukes. I'd still be happy.

Considering it's the last dlc im sure that they expect you to play through quite a bit and level up as you would probably be [censored] by the high level npc's in LR so why would it matter if major places in the game could be blown up.Of course not the strip im sure but im thinking options for smaller factions like the option to blow caesars camp up or maybe the bos bunkers or camp mcarren etc. It would be cool to just wipe out a faction you didnt care for at the end of the game. Also smaller towns could be up for nuke like maybe goodsprings or novac. THen again maybe you are like settling a dispute among groups at the divide which with certain outcomes could move new factions into the mojave. From descriptions of the divide i've heard thus far it sounds like the mojave would be a better place to be than the stormed up im guessing barely inhabitable divide. Oh speculation.

LMAO

Another possibility is that it adds new enemies to the majavi or it could add vegetation. We assume it is a nuke but what if it is some kind of GECK missile. (okay it is probably a nuke but come on we can guess at alternatives other than glowy new crater). There is also the possibility that a new but minor faction could be added to the map from whatever the old world.

I'm kind of hoping that the canyon opens up like someone suggested and it adds a long road to walk down to the divide. Two maps for the price of one.

Most likely you can explode a remote area in the Mojave with the nukes. The most likely thing being an area that only has side quests such as Goodsprings or simply nuking a small remote area revealing a brand new place to explore.

Lol, calm down! :rofl:
It'd be something small! I think it will be Wolfhorn Ranch that gets affected, I remember reading that the ranch was Ulysses' home.

Guys take a look at this "http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Lonesome_Road will affect part of the Mojave Wasteland after completing the main quest."

is this just speculation or are they actually going through with this? just confused because the others did nothing to the Mojave.

I was expecting you to link the blog, instead I got the wiki.....

In Fallout 3 you are given the option to destroy Megaton with a nuke...at the end of brokensteel, you could destroy the citadel, and yo can help ghouls kill everyone in tennpeny tower. All of these options involve dramatically changing an area or region and removing any quests for that area. so, i agree with the others that it could be nuke time for someone in the mojave. Another idea is that, maybe, you will get ulysses as a follower. I believe someone said that all of his companion codding is still in the game files....sooooo


Excuse me, but in what way this events remotelly affect the areas? Around Megaton you have radiation, but that's it, even travelling merchants still stop around town and those raiders by the school act like nothing happened. TT doesn't affect s*** what happens in the region. Broken Steel turns the Citadel into rubble and that's it, nothing happens either (worst of all, the BoS troops around the Capitol and Washingtong Monument act like nothing happened either).
The same can be said about Forlon Hope if you helped the Legion.

At least give me something like Helios ONE or Nelson, where your actions replace the dominant faction, with all the advantages and drawbacks these brings.

And honestly, I hope this talk about nuking a settlement isn't real. What sense does it make being allowed to nuke Goodsprings, but don't having the chance to nuke McCarran?

We don't nuke anything probably, least I hope that's not the thing that changes in the mojave. Would be kinda lame.

I think it will be the area of Canyon Wreckage and Wolfhorn Ranch. That portion. Or maybe... ah, hell. I don't know.

:yes:
Finally! Someone else said something I can agree too! I think it will be Wolfhorn Ranch because that was supposedly Ulysses' home, so that would make the most sense. Nuking places? Where on Earth did that idea spawn from? Why would we nuke a place in the Mojave?! For what good reason?! Canyon Wreckage will obviusly be altered by the purchase of this DLC, like all the others, so I wouldn't really include that! :lol:

In some preview of the game or some interview one of the devs said that after the quest something will effect the Mojavi. Then there is the screen of Ulysses standing in front of what everyone assumes is a ICMB so people just put two and two together.

Edit: there is also an achievement to detonate all Warheads in the divide.

Yeah, I think the thing the quest affected in the Mojave is Wolfhorn Ranch.

Just because there's a trophy for detonating war heads in The Divide doesn't naturally mean they'll destroy parts of Nevada! :lol:
