If you have a high luck character, you can win a lot of money as soon as you enter the Sierra Madre casino and exchange them for thousands of bullets.

Wow. Wish I took advantage of that my first time through. I was so accustomed to sneaking that by the time I reached the casino, bullets were the furthest thing from my mind.

[CroGamer002]

Heh, I pretty much always have luck pretty damn low.

Intelligent people are always unlucky.

I'm the only one that never sold those gold bars? They make such an nice decoration....

[Seagloom]

So far every build I've tried has at least 7 luck to start. Even when I tried a 10 intelligence build I had 7 luck. I value crits too much. Unless I'm going for melee or unarmed, I use strength as my dump stat. With weapon handling, an implant, and some DLC bonuses it's still easy to meet requirements for anything save the heaviest weapons.

I sold my gold bars. Didn't need the caps at all, really; but greeed. XD

[Liamv2]

I left all the gold bars in the foot locker by the exit of the bunker.

Happy,
 
The consensus from the NV thread was to do the DLCs in this order: Honest Hearts - Dead Money - OWB - Lonesome Road. Seems to be the right order for difficulty and story arc.
 
And you can get through Dead Money without melee. Don't be intimidated; it's just easier with melee/sneak.  The aura and environment are creepy as hell, but the inhabitants can be dealt with, or avoided. Environmental hazards will be a challenge as well, but nothing you won't be able to deal with. I did it with a guns character with low melee the first time. Yeah, you'll struggle a little, but sneak where you can, craft whatever you can avoid hazards. And you will pick up companions, as needed, along the way.

OK, thanks! I actually just started Honest Hearts last night, so I'm glad to know I picked the right one.

I didn't realize there was a 75 lb. weight limit, so I went and dumped a ton of stuff, along with my followers, off at the Lucky 38. When I got back, I talked to darling Ricky, and realized too late that he could have carried stuff for me. Lots of xp chances in that conversation. I did all that I could, and told him to hit the road.

Then we finally get there, and whoa! What's this? White Legs ambush? Crap. I suddenly realize everyone is dead, and I kinda panic. I didn't get a quest failure, so I just kept going, and figured I'd reload if I had to. Then I googled it, and found that it was a scripted event. Phew! Although I suspect that I might have accidentally shot some Dead Horse scouts in the area, from being trigger happy. Oopsie.
 
I've done several quests, met Joshua and Daniel, and am now traveling with Waking Cloud. I think I prefer Follows-Chalk. And...I'm pretty sure I brought the wrong weapons with me. I left the Gauss rifle at home, and have been wishing this entire time that I had it. Or any kind of sniper rifle. I just brought an assault rifle, a laser rcw, and a shotgun. I picked up a Riot Shotgun, (which seems to have better stats). And lots of 12.7mm submachine guns. I wish I had realized how much you can sell those for, instead of constantly maintaining them when I picked up new ones; I could be rich!

So I was wondering...I would swear that Joshua Graham sounds like a Dunmer from Skyrim. So I looked him up, and sure enough, he's voiced by Keith Szarabajka. I love it when voice actors cross over. My husband just shakes his head, every time I pick out a voice. I'm pretty sure I also heard Njada Stonearm, Astrid, the list goes on. Not to mention the usual suspects.

I only brought few gold bars with myself... sold two of them and kept the rest in Mr. House's tower.
Guns are more important. I didn't want to leave them rare ones in Sierra Madre for some petty gold bars!

[Addai]

@ happy daiz, there is a great rifle to be had in Honest Hearts but it is not easy to find. It's a service rifle but it's pretty accurate. It's at a cliff-top called the Red Gate, not far from the Dead Horses camp. It's a quest-related item from the Survivalist Letters subquest, which you HAVE to finish. These are a series of notes left on terminals throughout the area. It makes some of the best storytelling of the DLC when put together with the main quest.

[happy_daiz]

^ Oh, sweet, thanks! I will make sure to look for it.

I actually found two of the terminals/caches already, and have been intrigued by the notes so far. I found the camp where the vault dwellers had set up first, so it was an effective surprise and "aha!" moment when I got to the first terminal. I can't wait to read the rest!

And dang it, I thought I was done with those crappy spore thingies.

Apparently the teaser Morse code has changed to:

"NCRA UNIT BST 314 7 EMRG MSG NEW YORK STAGE 7 WASHINGTON STAGE 7 LOS ANGELES STAGE 7 AUSTIN STAGE 7 CHICAGO STAGE 7 NEW ORLEAN STAGE 7 LAS VEGAS UNKNOWN MIAMI STAGE 7 DALLAS STAGE 7 DENVER STAGE 7 SAN DIEGO STAGE 7 SAN FRANCISCO STAGE 7 BOSTON"

Stage 7 being the final step of the International Nuclear Event Scale.

Gaming gods, let this not be a hoax.

If it is a hoax then the internet will explode in rage.
The internet will get into its goddamn car, hunt the prankster down and put his personal info all over the net.

Thats pretty scary, imagine hearing that all over the news. Immeninent nuclear war.

I suddenly feel the urge to squee.

How right you are. My Courier is fairly smart, but quite unlucky. Playing table games in the casinos has been disappointing, to say the least.

Before I dealt with Benny I spent thirty minutes playing slots at The Tops. I had a long dry spell that took up the bulk of that time. On my last two pulls I hit a 4500 or so jackpot followed by a 11500 jackpot. First time I ever got banned from gambling in two gos. XD

Gotta admit these teasers don't excite me. Guess I'll have to wait until next week for a real announcement to speculate over.

I love how Las Vegas is "UNKNOWN".

[Addai]

Dat House!

I've never, ever played the slots or blackjack in FNV. Or Caravan. I guess those have as little appeal as the real Las Vegas does.

[Seagloom]

I've tried them all. Slots is easiest with high luck if you don't want to think at all. Just click, click, click away! XD For blackjack you need to pay enough attention to know when to hit or double down, so it's a lot more tedious. Cleaning out a casino can be worth around 15-20k caps. You can also be rewarded with a suite in each casino. IMO they look cheerier than the Lucky 38's suite. Downside is they're just as annoying to access, so I don't bother using them either.

Caravan is nice when you buy a bunch of stuff from certain merchants. Afterward you can play a few hands and win all your money back. >.>

With 10 luck you always get the card you need to win in blackjack. You can start with 1 chip and half an hour later you get kicked out of the casino.

Half an hour? With 8 luck I get kicked out in 10-15 minutes. Takes about an hour to do all the casinos

Are we looking at a Fallout-game kicking off with the bombs dropped fairly recently, then?

Not that I'd mind, would make for an interesting scenario too.

[Barbarossa2010]

I'd be good with that.

But, it could be just a lingering, repeating signal.

I think BSN ate my post. Anyway, what I said was: Doubtful. The URL is survivor2299. Fallout 3 took place in 2277 and New Vegas in 2281.  This is probably like those ghost radio signals left over from the war.

Damn. You two are both luckier than me, it seems. XD Although I usually have 8 luck when gambling, not 10. By the time I have 10, I'm deeper into the game where caps aren't as important.

That counter and its info is a distraction. The Fallout 4 takes place in Japan and you have to deal with Japanese accent, Neo-Samurais and ancient Anime lovers!

[Seagloom]

So we get to kill scores of cosplayers? Most awesome Fallout EVER.

(Disclaimer: I don't actually mind cosplayers. )
