Fallout 3 or New Vegas?

[Littledude]

We have to stop using both of these Fallout topics and just use the other one.

I thought items don't disappear. I put a recharger rifle on the floor next to a dumpster in novac and it went missing.

[Littledude]

I told you they disappear.
You need to keep your items in safe locations. The player house in novac would have been safe.

But I dropped the item, I didn't put it in a container. In Fallout 3 and Oblivion dropped items stay on the ground.

[Littledude]

Yes they did.

[Lørd Tøny]

I've dropped items from the start of Oblivion dungeon, then around the end of the game I game I came back to the dungeon and the items I've dropped were still there.

In Fallout 3 I couldn't carry more items so I stashed my items somewhere in a broken house, I forgot about it but then one day I came across it again about two game weeks after.

[Littledude]

Then you did something weird.

Dropped Items disappear all the time.

Maybe you've just dropped items people would steal like weapons.

[Littledude]

People don't actually steal things. That's just how people rationally explain items disappearing.

I always see NPCs picking weapons off the ground in New Vegas. The weapons I left in the powder gangers in goodsprings are gone but the bodies are still there. I even look to pick pocket people and I've noticed that some have TNT and other weapons.

[Lørd Tøny]

It doesn't make sense to make dropped items disappear especially when you don't get a house right from the start, unlike in Fallout 3 which gives you a house if you go straight to megaton which isn't far.

In Oblivion you don't get your first house until you buy it for 1,000 gold. From the start of the game 1,000 gold takes a long time to get if I wasn't able to drop items and pick them up later I would be forgeted.

[DracoSoul]

I WISH people picked up weapons I dropped

Like in Fallout 3, if you can't find the Firelance but you know the ship exploded, a raider would pick it up.

[Rugged]

Um.

Buddy.


I wasn't talking about his 10mm pistol.
That you just get when your dad dies.

I was talking about his laser pistol.

So don't just call it stupid if you don't know what I'm talking about.

He didn't call you stupid.

Stupid.

[Rugged]

I didn't say he called me stupid.

don't just call it stupid

Stupid.
