Alright, I got Boone, he killed off the perp who sold his wife. Apparently I'm still in good terms with the NCR, it was just the powder gangers that had taken the correctional facility who were angry with me, not the NCR officials themselves.

The Ranger station was Station Charlie. Just found out they were kaput and told the guy in Novac and then I gained fame from the NCR (you people lied?)  :D   I also learned a ranger move fromn the crippled guy, but I don't know what a "power move" is... That isn't from FO3 from my memory.

the move the ranger teaches you is an unarmed stun move, you can execute it by running towards your enemy, and then suddenly backing up while holding the attack button, he'll do a spinning low kick which will nock down other human opponents. i use it against the legion alot.

SOMEONE NEEDS TO PLAY FALLOUT 1 AND 2... :rofl

Just to tell ya. Arizona isn't where the Brotherhood of Steel started... Try California instead

I've played those, I just want an updated version.

And I thought part of the game was in Cali? Or is it just called the New CALIFORNIA Republic for craps and giggles?

Um, are we playing two different games? Mine starts in Nevada, and takes place entirely in Nevada (Think Vegas ;) )

Goodsprings is in Nevada, and you can see new vegas in the background of the opening scene.

You people are just messed up! Lol. BTW, does anyone know if the story line for FO has ever been released? I'd say probably not, but it would be nice to know if it ever goes to China, to finish off them thar commies  ;)

i mistook nevada for arizona, but we are both wrong.

it takes place some in california and mostly in nevada. the town of nipton is right on the border, go there and you will see the two signs that say "now entering california" and "now entering nevada"

In the game it has that sign? Or real life? (Nipton being a real town)

Legion HUH!

I've wiped the legion off the map twice already.

BTW (Spoiler) Caesar has something interesting.

Couple of stealth boys, good load of frags and a good sniper rifle will clean out the whole nest.

I destroyed the NCR completely, got the Boomers to blast them with their B-29, helped the legion cross the dam. Did every quest doing the most screwed up path and sent the Mojave into complete horror

Now all you must do is act as though the outback is the Mojave and you can have Fallout fun all you want to. Pack some grenades, a lever action rifle, you'll be set :aok

I went in with a anti-material rifle and 1 shot everyone at fortification hill.
