Mine is something getting cut in half by the Laser Rifle although killing the Overseer was very gratifying. :D
MY Overseer didn't get cut in half cleanly, his left half was bursted, the remaining half fall on the ground and crawl like a worm. :2gunfire:

What the spirit seeks the mind will follow

The best was when I hit the Overseer with Turbo Plasma Rifle and he survived the shot!! The combat turn ended, game exited the combat and my character pulled a Desert Eagle by him self and shot the Overseer and then he bursted to half and started to crawl to the Vault.

I don't know why the game decided to take control and shoot the Overseer with the Deagle, but hey! I don't complain. It was so darn funny!

To think that the Overseer survived a shot from TPR....

Did you know that the Overseer is immortal when he sits on his chair? I once tried to kill him. I used miniguns, rocket launcher, TPR, alien blaster... and couldn't even do damage. He was always hit for no damage.

That's because the overseer is on a higher plane than you.

It would be possible in real life, but the game won't let you kill him, because you would have to shoot up.

I think the actual reason is that he is invincible because of the scripting.
If he just was on a higher plane, you couldn't hit him because he'd be out of your line of sight, but you can still do damage - just can't hurt him.

If you hit 'A' as the Overseer is walking away after giving his I'm a pussy and don't want to lose everyone in the vault to you speech, you can use any weapon on him. But you will get the same death animation as you would have gotten if you killed him automatically if you had beserker or bloody mess traits.

Yeah, that's the way I ended up doing it, but no matter what, that guy got slagged in the end...

I've read somewhere you can run for the exit grid with a hacked character and then return to kill the Overseer. Haven't tried that myself, the 'traditional way' works just fine. :)

You can also run into the vault if you have enough action points and they will act as if you betrayed them, IIRC.

Well, IIRC, if you kill any Vault Dweller, they will get pissed at you.

Heheh, I just noticed that with the poll, as a bar thingy, thumb excluded, it is a hand flipping the bird! 8O Must be the gods hating polls of any kind!

I mean after you kill the Overseer but yeah they(the vaulties) get mad at you if you use them as target dummies, who wouldn't. And probably when you sell them out to Lou, but you don't get to play/interact after that ending/movie.

It's just kind of ironic that you kill off their asshole of a leader and they want to kill you instead of making you leader for saving their collective sorry asses. :P

Well, look it. One of his cronies (the PC) could convince the most radical faction to stay and trust him, why couldn't he do that to the rest? I mean, bullshitting people is his job. You think he would be quite good at it after thirty some odd years... :P

Yeah, I kinda figured that you would be able to play after joining Lou. Would be very hard to implement though... and than there is the issue of choosing it, but I am sure people would go through every way instead of just going down the easy path by joining Lou.

Now, why would you kill him? Be happy you're living in the wastelands you can do whatever you want instead of living a boring life in a vault where everyday is the same and eventually you'll be captured by the Enclave if you live long enough. The Wanderer was damn lucky to avoid that.
