Closed suggestions / Maybe suggested before - Rep

« on: December 18, 2013, 01:27:33 am »

I think it's a bit odd you can kill anyone in a town if you are idolized, if your own rep with the town isn't in the negatives.
I'm not demanding ultra-realism, but if a celebrity walked into his home town and killed someone, the police wouldn't just go "ahhh fuck it."
It does make sense if you have negative rep in the town but.. could we maybe change this? I've been killed in 3 different towns by 3 different people who got away with it just because they were idolized, but only once I've actually had anything of worth on me.
I understand it's a rare occurrence, but I don't want to be on my toes every time I enter a town just because someone may be idolized and can do what he wants to me, unless I have been a total wank-biscuit to the townspeople in which case I expect to be shot multiple times.

If this has been suggested before, then I am sorry.

Probably some other player killed you when you entered

don't come to NCR to trade

Eeee-yep. Learning that the hard way.
Gonna start trading with players in barter grounds, and trading with NPCs someplace else.

General Game Discussion / Looted in NCR

« on: December 18, 2013, 01:15:18 am »

Not entirely sure if this is the right place to post this. New to the site. but basically, I was heading to NCR to trade .45 caliber rounds, piss-easy to replace so not too bothered about them being taken, but the second I got into NCR, no warning, BOOM. Shot in the face, killed and looted by someone standing nearby. I'm assuming that was the point.
This has not happened to me before hence the confusion. I have been pick-pocketed, followed, attacked, but never shot the instant I entered NCR. The screen hadn't even fully loaded before I was shot dead.

I'm just wondering why. How common is this?

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this, wasn't sure where to put it.


[edit]
I should point, I'm not butthurt or annoyed at this, just confused. I've been killed plenty of times, but never right there the instant I enter a town. All I had on me was the ammo, 2,500 .45 rounds which took me all of 5 minutes to gather resources and actually make. Don't mean to keep repeating myself but, yeah, just confused.
