As others have said, setting up little outposts and mining all approaches can be very fun. I spent a long time gathering mines, plasma and otherwise, and powder charges to surround Wolfhorn ranch. Made that place impenetrable! Also, one of my favorite ways to play is as one of Caesar's most talented frumentarii, and plan elaborate ways to sabotage the NCR and assassinate their leaders. Arizona Killer is great quest, too. Try to set up an assassination that gets Kimball, Moore, and Ranger Grant all in one go. It is tricky to do. [[User:BillyOcean|BILLYOCEAN]]

Why would you need to make Wolfhorn ranch impenetrable? Nothing typically spawns in that area. The closest place that would is Raided farmstead and that’s too far away for them to wander into. [[User:ReapTheChaos|ReapTheChaos]] 11:08, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Other than the entire game, what are your opinions on the most enjoyable pass times in the game? Any quests, locations, random encounters, perks or companions.

Starting up the robot army under Fortification Hill. That sudden rush of industrial noise means very, very bad things will happen to your opponents later on. Wunengzi 13:14, June 14, 2011 (UTC)

I wish there were more recreational things to do. Like, there’s pool tables all over the place, I wish you and a companion could shoot a game of pool together. If you ever played GTA IV, that was quite a fun way to kill time. I’d also like to see the gambling ban lifted after a few game weeks or something, not that I need the caps, hell there’s more caps to be made in this game than you could ever spend, but just for something to do.

I like to explore old world places, but thats just me ToestheUnwholy 15:19, June 14, 2011 (UTC)

I like to set up booby traps with mines. Once I set up a minefield, (12 frag, 2 plasma),outside of Caesar's tent, went in, shot at Caesar with the Gobi & then left the tent at a full run. Everyone followed, setting off a huge explosion as I dropped down into the gap between the fence and the hilltop Caeser's tent is on. Zero damage to me, those who didn't die were thrown all over the camp and could be delt with 1 or 2 at a time.


To pass the time, I set up safe houses etc where I stash equipment and supplies. I mine the approaches and doorways to keep out unwanted visitors. To me, the best and most secure area is Vault 3. The place is very easily defended and Fiends constantly respawn so that makes for a pleasant afternoons sport of hunting. They also kindly provide plenty of equipment on their dead bodies to build an impressive armoury within Vault 3.

What I'd like to see is a mod in which you can hire guards and populate areas like Vault 3 with residents. You should be also be able to instruct your companions to hang out there. It'd be nice to be given the option to be able to clean it up and get it functional again. You pay caps to install upgrades to the Presidential suite at the Lucky 38 so why not other places in the game?

I also like to go on foraging missions, collecting food etc by hunting for Brahmin and Nighorns and harvesting Yuccas and Agave. You get to quickly learn where all the pest food sources are and it's fun to wander the wastes gathering your lunch and occassionally blowing somethings head off.Captain Taipan 05:24, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

"Banging Sarah Weintraub and Red Lucy." Now if you could do that at the same time.... heh heh ;) Captain Taipan 04:55, June 17, 2011 (UTC)
