MrPudding Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 (edited) I'm playing on Hardcore mode and I'm on the quest where the NCR has you protect President Kimball during his visit to Hoover Dam. When you talk to the Ranger, he tells you to wait until tomorrow and you have short fade to black moment for the time to pass. Unfortunately, this time lapse causes me to instantly die from dehydration and starvation. I tried talking to the Ranger at around 11 pm so when "tomorrow" comes around it will only have been an hour or two and my character won't instantly die. Unfortunately, I still instantly died from dehydration even when I did that. Does anybody know when is the best time to talk to the Ranger when my water, food, and sleep level are all at 0? Any help would be much appreciated. I'm literally stuck at this point in the game and it's very frustrating. I refuse to change it to Casual.

wgbpsychophant Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Are you using a mod that changes the food/water consumption rate? I have played twice in hardcore and only one of them did I had a marker after the fade, and it was just light hunger, so a steak and go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't downloaded any mods since I got the game and this is my first playthrough. Update: Well I ended up having to enable God Mode with the console just so I could survive that time lapse, so problem solved I guess.

pjz Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 When I hit this point yesterday, after the wait period I checked hunger/thirst/sleep and surprisingly they were all set to zero just as if I'd slept, eaten and drank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with me when ever i did that part. I suppose it is just a glitch that you received hunger from that time elapse. No surprise seeig all f the glitches in the game.

Neariox Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 easiest way to get rid of this problem is to take off hardcore mod bfore the wait then put it on as soon as the game loads. That way you wont die and still can continue of hardcore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
