Make sure the weapon isn't one of those you can only get if you have the wasteland perk, like with the alien laser pistol.

I was tempted to get the Wild Wasteland perk. I declined on it, though.

I'll get it next time.

My big dislike is the guy on Mojave Radio who sounds like a drunk. And I can hardly hear the radio, I have to put up with excessively loud gunshots to hear anything the guy says, or hear any of the music.

Um... audio settings in game... you can change the volume of effects v radio, etc.

i miss the old fatman, the ones you find ingame are seriously nerfed, barely do more damage than a missile launcher. and theres only 12 mini nukes in-game total.

A few words about FNV mods.

A World of Pain adds significantly more places to FNV, more bad guys to shoot, several new vaults, caves, and perhaps more important, a couple of new sources of weapons and armor for the person starting a new game.

Portable tent is just what it sounds like, gives you a portable tent, fully loaded (or you can choose stripped down version) Can be equipped as a backback, setup wherever you like. (prefer to set mine close to water, lake mead, goodsprings source, etc) Inside you have a well rested bed, lots of storage, your own workbench and reloading bench. Tunable radio, and a plant box that lets you harvest food regularly.

Nocol (No collisions) This little mod takes the invisible walls out between the different area's.
I hated being told I can't go someplace.

If your not good at locks, I highly recomend the Classic Sonic Screwdriver.

Wasteland Essential Gear is a set of clothing and backpacks that you can either buy at good springs or find on some enemy body's. Varying from the +8 pounds small side pack to the big duffle bag.
They are extremely handy.

Tired of not being able to maintain a truly "neutral" character, or of being told your bad because your taking things that belonged to someone you just killed? Try the "Karma Neutralized" mod.

Like Fallout3, FNV has a world of interesting mods for the PC Gamer.

Your best one stop shop for mods is of course Fallout Nexus.

That's Wayne Newton as the Mojave Radio DJ, and yeah, I agree most of the time he's hard to understand due to his slurring his slurs.

So Mr. New Vegas is like John Eden? Why can't I have a computer as cool as that...?
