Kinda Wierd. Body Bridge?

Post by Radoteur »

In the Boneyard.
Gun Runners Fortress.
I'm running around minding my own business, (as usual) and i see that some Gun Runner takes 20 points of damage. Brushing it aside as yet another bug, i continue. I come back a little later and the Gun Runner takes even more damage, eventually resulting in death. I was freaked out by now. I was ready to line up the NPC's for execution.
I was suprised when the Gun Runners were still friendly. I was pretty curious as to what happened to the Gun Runner. (Of course, greed may have also driven me.) I come upon a Gun Runner lying dead in the radioactive moat.

"What a way to go."

So i do the first thing that comes to my head. Loot the body. I can't let it go to waste now. Then i realize i can cross the moat over the Gun Runner's body. There was a slight side effect. My friends didn't seem to like walking over the body. I didn't really mind. The Body Bridge became a Bodies Bridge.

If you want to see some pictures, tell me.

Mkay... Nobody has looked at this, and i don't care.
I'm going to put the pictures up with captions. And there is nothing you can do to stop meh!

Ah! What is this! A dead Gun Runner? It does not seem to be from natural causes.

Hmmm... NPC's seem to be suseptible to the effects of the radiated moat. Good thing i'm not.

How'd you get the gunrunner over there?

I knew that I could cross there but always suffer some HP loss but I have never heard of this before. :)

I didn't.
Truthfully, I was taking advantage of a bug that gave me 1000 exp per shot. Basically it consisted of running between warehouse and gabriel telling Gab i finished the quest. Each time i leave, it would reset, so i could keep reclaiming my 1000 exp. At the time it seemed like a good idea.

I told them i wanted all their weapons n stuff, so the gunrunners started wandering... Looks like this guy wandered somewhere he didn't want to wander.

Well, actually, in one of the other times i went into the Gun Runner's place, all four of my NPC's got tangled up on the bridge with the guard.

I guess you can say that i was slightly perturbed. I killed everyone, then loaded a saved game.

Heheh, pretty cool, Radoteur. Although I can only wonder what type of dumb-dum would walk into radiactive moat. Unless he was blind. No wait, he's a Gunrunner, not a FO2 beta tester.

I always hated that. I wish you would have been able to "shove" people out of the way like in FO2. Would have prevented a lot of reloads for me....
