andrewajc Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Well when you get to The Strip for the main quest, you'll be able to use the Lucky 38 presidential suite as a home. There are a couple of safehouses for different groups in the game (Brotherhood of Steel, The Followers of the Apocalypse, etc) so doing quests for them would eventually allow you to use the safehouses as a home. If you need somewhere quickly though, it might be just as easy to find one of the game's companions and get them to carry stuff for you. I've seen a mod that adds a shack to Goodsprings that you could use as a home, if you're playing on the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluidFire Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Early in the game I use the crates near the benches in Goodsprings to store my junk. Then there's the hotel in Novac, Lucky 38, and as mentioned above various faction safehouses. But I miss my nuka cola fridge from FO3. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake81 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I made a mod that turns the shack near the Yangtze Memorial(The big cross that can be seen from Goodsprings graveyard),it still a WIP but most of it's functions are ready.Here's the link,be sure to leave a comment :) http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36404 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1744345User Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 You could try my mod Yangtze Bunker - Player Home. I put it at the Yangtze Memorial and it is close to where you start in the game. There are quite a few other house mods on the nexus, so if my player home doesn't fit your tastes you have other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsmanners Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 It really also depends on whether you're playing "hardcore" mode. I find that having purified water nearby is essential, and there are only so many places where you can find that. Early in the game, there are a number of valves and such outside in Goodsprings, and there is also the Saloon, Doc Mitch, and you can also find a sink in Victor's house. I don't think there's any purified water near Novac or in the motel room. If you camp outside near a lake or the river, you can just drink from that, and I think the Khans also have a small pool of purified water near their camp. Safehouses have been mentioned, but the only one you can get easily is the Follower's safehouse (getting Julie everything she needs will quickly get you there). That safehouse, however, is in an inconvenient location. The NCR safehouse is just north of Black Mountain, which puts it in an ideal location (if you don't mind a few Deathclaws somewhat nearby), but the NCR will not just hand you the key. You have to be Liked or better to get the key, and that takes performing quite a few quests for them. Other places for good water (without mods) include: Nellis, Hoover Dam, HELIOS One Tower, Hidden Valley, McCarran Terminal, Crimson Caravan, Cottonwood Cove, most of Freeside and The Strip in New Vegas, the Greenhouses at the NCR Sharecroppers, and Jacobstown. Another thing to consider is whether there are any decent beds (ones that can give you the Well Rested bonus). Those locations are: the bed in the High Roller suite at the Lucky 38, the Atomic Wrangler, and The Tops. The Kings house, Novac, the safehouses, and Jacobstown also have those type of beds somewhere nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank lee Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Don't forget the legions safehouse above Nipton, Mind the ghouls! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake81 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) Heh,all safehouses have some sort of critter near them,the one at Yangtze has Radscorps so I added two turrets to fend them off and seem to be working quite well.Sometimes I arrive and find a big pile of dead radscorps sitting in front of my shack.
