common problem with vegas strip?

[dissentuk]

i have both a passport and more than 10000 caps but i cant get into the strip. i passed the check under the passport option and the robot tells me to move along. when i try to enter the strip my game crashes every time. im on xbox so i have very limited options. i knew i shouldnt have bothered and just waited till the mod scene took off again and bought it for pc, but its done now. does anybody know if this is a common problem and if there is a way round it. i also didnt manage to stop the mono rail from blowing up.

 

thanks

Tried going by monorail from McCarren?

 

Edit: I meant from an earlier save, sorry it's late here.

sounds like a xbox bug, wait for next patch, nothing you can do to a xbox to fix it, less of course youd like to restart and try a new game to see if it was a corrupt save issue.

apparently

 

 

since there seems to be no solution

 

try something silly that has worked in the past

 

walk up to the door

 

turn around 3 times

 

then walk through the door

New vegas is one of the buggiest games I've ever played, and on the Xbox you're stuck with it.

 

I would strongly advise returning it and exchanging it for a copy of the PC version, as there are at least lots of bugfix mods

 

Regarding your crashing issue, is that the only place it crashes? Does it crash when you try to go into any building, perhaps?

 

 

 

Something to try whenever you're having crashes of any sort:

 

1. Make a FULL SAVE from the menu (menu > Save > New Save)

2. Commit suicide somehow. Like throw a grenade at your feet

3. Wait for the game to finish showing your death and for it to automatically load the last save

4. Then try whatever is making you crash

 

This has been proven to help with some crashing issues, most notably crashes relating to saving. If that doesn't work though then I can't help

There is a bug in that for PC, too. THe only way to enter the Strip is if you have the key. To get one you need to kill a Secuatron from the Gate. The best way to do this if you can take one out with a Sniper. After that take the key.

 

Another nice "buggy" way to kill the Securatron is if you have the NCR Radio. Call for troop support somewhere in the waste where it is possible. Now fast travel to the gate and the ncr troopers will attack the robots.
