I pickpocketed his ammo, ran out of McCarran, ran back to Sterling. Got the stealth boy equipped, sitting behind him, and I'm probably on over 80 attempts of trying to steal this damn gun away

it's like glitched or something :(

Pickpocketing isn't glitched, just very badly programmed. The formula weighs the value of the item way too heavily so anything remotely valuable is a pain.

Apparently the best you can get is a 5% chance of success

you can actually shoot it out of his hands if you're in combat together against an enemy, then hurry up and grab it, then holster your shit, and he'll be friendly again

Love me some LLC. I always went the pickpocketing route, though, never the shoot-out-of-hand method. People who kill Sterling should be strapped to Hoover Dam's edifice, facing east so they may watch their world die.

That's usually my workhorse weapon for weak trash enemies. Cheap and easy to use and maintain, that weapon will lay waste to the average Mojave critter.

On the subject of guns being slow at times, I wouldn't try using that against Cazadores. They usually get a hailstorm of 9mm hollowpoint rounds.

I remember trying to find good times to pickpocket him while he walked around, but he was rarely alone. Couple that with the usual reverse pickpocketing woes and it could be a little hair-pulling.

OWB is great, but it does wear a bit thin on repeated plays. Honest Hearts is forever, though.

I wonder if this would run on my non-gaming laptop.

Been tempted to get my 360 out of storage to play it.

I'm pretty sure New Vegas' Gauss Rifle carries over the Fallout 3 bug where the scope is slightly off center, forcing you to aim a bit weird to make shots at long range. idk if that's what the guy is thinking of or not though

I keep dying man. Stupid dogs knocked me over. ;(. Proton Axe is doing me alright, but I need Piercing Strike with it.

The Night Stalkers in OWB are the worst, I hate those things. They'd be plenty bad on their own, but then VATS glitches when they get close and you can't hit them with guns or energy. And of course they'll get close because they're tanky, small, and fast. Melee with a fast weapon and the knockdown perk wrecks them, but you're only gonna have that on a melee build. On anything else I just do my best to stealthboy through that part of the map and GTFO as fast as possible, fuck 'em.

I think most things do, but it could just be that the enemies are pretty packed in the map and there really isn't a reason to backtrack much.

Yeah there's so much of these fools it ridiculous. The Military dogs are doing me even dirtier though, I can't even outrun them.

I think everything respawns back? It sure feels like it at least

Finally got Piercing Strike thank god. Making a nice noticeable difference with the proton axe

Ah I see, with the stealth boy equpped you just have to hold your scope on it. If you let go of aim and go into regular first or third person it instantly sees you. Weird
