dead money hidden ending continued

[ncrrangerer]

im not sure if anyone knows this but there is a hidden dead money ending where u may side with elijah and he carrys forward his "wipe the slate clean plan" for this to happen The following conditions must exist: 1) You've recruited Veronica and talked with her enough to know that Elijah and her were close. (need confirmation, completion of a certain dialogue tree or mission, possibly I Could Make You Care after visiting Gibson's shack?) 2) You have a Vilified or Merciful Thug reputation rating with the NCR.

 

After you access the terminal with the note to Vera Keyes while "stuck" inside the vault, dialogue with Elijah initiates. The fastest way through the tree:

 

You have a lot to answer for. // Before this goes any farther, I had questions. // You're Veronica's mentor. The Elder who lost HELIOS One. // You want to attack NCR? All of NCR? // (Negative NCR reputation speech check) If you want to kill NCR, that's fine with me. // Then we better get to killing them.

 

Please note, this triggers a premature ending that effectively closes out the game for the player. so i wish to continue the game after this ending and make the dialogue option depend more on bos fame then ncr infamy and show the mojave always night time covered in the cloud leaving only a few quests are or adding new ones with the BOS risen to power and elijah i guess partying at the lucky 38 or helios one or seirra medre and some kick ass weapons for the trouble

I'll up the ante.

 

I always saw Dead Money as having the same potential for epic mods as Mothership Zeta, and the epic mod that spawned from it. The fact that there is an abandoned casino protected by a toxic cloud, full of advanced technology capable of destroying any army that dared opposed it... not to mention the Ghost People... I see the possibilities as endless.

 

Imagine, if you will, the fact that all of this technology is at your fingertips. A veritable self-sustaining fortress that an evil, power-hungry Courier could use to turn himself into a God capable of rivaling New Vegas, NCR, and the Legion in terms of power, just like Mothership Zeta did for the Lone Wanderer in the MZC mod. But what does the Courier do? He just leaves it behind, never to be remembered or returned to again.

 

I reject this notion. Just like if I were the Lone Wanderer, I'd use the alien mothership to eradicate the Enclave and the Brotherhood of Steel and conquer the Capital Wasteland. I would have done the same with the Sierra Madre.

 

I honestly can't believe I'm the only person who thinks this. Imagine an army of Holograms marching towards the Hoover Dam. Imagine conquered Ghost People scaling the face of the Dam like Goblins in Lord of the Rings, and throwing down NCR rangers. Imagine the Cloud descending on the Fort and the Legate's Camp, and then on Camp McCarran. Imagine Dog/God, clad in Power Armor, holding up General Oliver by the throat, and then biting his face off, and then a holographic AI informing the Courier that the battle is being won. Mr. House, Kimball, and Caesar pleading with you to accept their surrender, and once it is done and over with, you're free to create your own empire.

 

Ambitious, right? But it's the same vision the people who started the MZC mod had. I wouldn't just let the Sierra Madre sit there; I'd kill Elijah, take his notes, and then unlock the secrets of that pre-war treasure trove and make the world my oyster.

 

And can you honestly tell me that this doesn't sound amazing?

indeed all that sounds pretty cool maybe after helping elijah u get to kill him soon after and the whole mojave outdoors looks likes its covered in cloud like a permanent night time (making the solar powered perk useless lol) leaving only non faction side quests active there should be brother hood soliders going around called "new vegas paladins" and other bos members wearing appropriate clothing accordingly helios should be changed to make the archmedies laser improved (to be used at least 4 times a day and increased range as elijah probably improved it in the alternate ending as mentioned by the narrtor of the lights at helios holograms and ghost ppl should be the sole residents of hoover dam and sm vending machines everywhere casinos on the strip using sm chips omertas get taken over by ghost ppl cause they would be dumb enough to try to fight them, u get the option where u can destory who evers left in the mojave (elijah would replace mr.house or yesman at the lucky 38 (hes old he needs it at some point unless he tries to become a ghost person, a improved verision where opening the pod wont kill him just unfreeze him promting him to ask what u need i could provide as a elijah actor getting options to destory his pod and rewire yes man or something) any good rep factions become brother hood members (bos rep would be altered as a requirment for the side with elijah ending instead of ncr infamy) or factions ethier ignored or bad rep will be killed ed-e would be given a powerful upgrade and a army of durframe eye bots would also serve elijahs cause (if u recruited ed-e) or theres a ending more close to ur total chaos ending the terminal has a thrid opion with a science skill of 80 or higher to unlock the secrets of the sm gaining access to portable hologram emitters (deployed simular to mines) that attack anyone hostile to the player a improved holorifile that shoots red pixels instead of blue and a hidden note unlocker which lets u find more on his speacial holotape for veronica these are all suggestions i personally think they would go great

[critcalcritic]

[ncrrangerer]

the whole mojave under control of elijah and the couier
