i was about to play lonesome road again in my current playthrough and kinda forgot about that part. thanks for the mod, great adition to my roleplay now (courier who helped the ncr till he saw through the bullshit and now wants to drive them away from vegas)
Yes.. But... Like stated... Twenty times... In this comment... Section............ HOW THE f*#@ DO THEY KNOW IT WAS YOU WHO NUKED THE LIVING s#*! OUT OF DEM?
"Hey that Courier guy hasnt been seen for a while. Then a nuke went off in our territory and suddendly he is mysteriously back and going to those territories LOADED with Radiation supplies. Huh... Wonder if we can connect the dots?"
Depending on when in the playthrough this is nobody other than House would care about the courier. In the mid to late game the factions probably have spies looking for the courier going into the divide (though I doubt the spies would want to or would get orders to actually go into the divide). But I don't know if they know about the nuke stockpile. Also how do they know that the nukes are coming from exactly the divide? At the very most they could see the nuke flying from the direction of the divide but it would be impossible for them to be definitely sure.
Also many people leave and come into the Mojave. I would think that it is more likely for one of the factions to find the nukes and nuke the other faction. So for example if the legion is nuked then they blame the NCR, If just the NCR is nuked they blame the legion, and if both are nuked they blame Mr House. I doubt that they would suddenly think that a random courier somehow managed to get their hands on nuked. It would make much more sense for a bigger faction to find them.
Sorry, but this mod makes no sense at all. You might download it if you really want a faction to hate you, but it doesn't just work. Unless ED-E told somebody, or one of the Deathclaws you killed in the Divide was actually one of the intelligent Deathclaws that the Enclave made (Which makes no sense in itself), the factions just wouldn't know.
What the courier did is only found out 200 years later and there's no way anyone knows who did this at the moment it happens. Even the vanilla reputation loss makes no sense, much less this.
I always do lonesome road before I go see Crocker for the first time / trigger Vulpes on the strip. (which wipes EVERY bad deed you've ever done against the NCR/LEGION)
Because the way I see it, you nuke the s*** out of them with anonymity, there's no f***ing way they can tell who hit them, why they were hit or even where the f***ing missiles came from...
This sounds all well and good, but it seems little over the top unrealistic because those people who got nuked have NO f***in WAY OF KNOWING WHO NUKED THEM. Unless some kind of hidden cameras are following Courier and magically transmit what he/she does on giant monitors to all of Mojave Wasteland to see or if Courier somehow announced intention to nuke them publicly or radio or something which he/she didn't. This factions (NCR/Legion...) who are supposed to hate you have no sure way of knowing you are behind it, assuming anyone remains alive after nukes hit em. What were Obsidian thinking with this i have no idea, but it sure should t be that way with current technological development of major Mojave factions.
