Can you beat fallout new vegas with a battle rifle?

[@jonnyboi841]

A cool challenge would be to see if you could beat fallout NV/ Fallout 3 with only items from vaults with the exception of ammo, healing items and repairs from vendors

[@InsaneFrame]

Already done fallout 3 with items from vault 101 turned into a iron fist run :)

[@Green-Raccoon777]

I remember using the .308 holotape from Dead Money to stack myself to to brim with ammo for the Battle Rifle, and if I need repairs, the Weapon Repair Kit holotape had me covered. In short, you can easily break New Vegas' economy depending on what you find in Dead Money, and *that* could be the real treasure of the Sierra Madre.

[@adarktrooper3657]

Senza did the dnd version a few years ago.

[@Nr4747]

Cool idea, but it might make for an anti-climactic video in NV since the hardest part would probably be to get through Vault 34 for the All-American (one of the strongest weapons in the game - at least in a proper VATS-build with the Grunt perk).

[@bentarbuck6161]

Great video, it's a nice change of pace to see a good weapon rather than trying to beat a game with just flumps as weapons. Looking forward to the next one

[@InsaneFrame]

Wanted to give the battle rifle its due its such a fun weapon!

[@sneebysneeb]

well i mean, the appeal of using shitty weapons is that it's more challenging

[@bentarbuck6161]

@@sneebysneeb I get that, I just think it's nice to switch it up once in a while. Partially my own fault subbing to so many people doing challenge videos

[@Matt-md5yt]

using an M1garand feels so right in this challenge

[@tf2gamingschannel]

There should be a run with only ww2 items such as the Thompson, battle rifle, frag grenades, satchel charges, ect

[@DakalaShade]

Oh, I'm _really_ looking forward to the next one! Dealing with the "wind up toy" of the Commonwealth Wasteland will be fun. I mean, it _is_ a decent weapon if you're patient and remember that it's a single-shot wonder, but like real muskets, it's a *pain* if you miss and have to wind it back up. I do tend to keep one on my characters just for emergencies, though. (I have a mod installed that makes turning the crank charge the weapon, so it _doesn't_ require ammo. Makes it way more useful as an emergency "oh, crap, I'm out of ammo!" gun.)

[@InsaneFrame]

Been heavily requested so thought I'd crack on with it!

[@dungeonpastor]

Beating fallout 4 with a Laser Musket? Yes you can. I've done it. Excited to see how you do it.

[@InsaneFrame]

This'll be awsome :D

[@notnice94]

Yep, did that back when I first played the game. I was too new to the Fallout universe and all the high tech laser and plasma weapons just looked goofy to me, and as soon as I saw the Garand I knew that was going to be my weapon of choice until the end of the game.

[@InsaneFrame]

Must say you have excellent taste sir!

[@Green-Raccoon777]

Lemme guess, you managed to get the .308 Rounds tape from Dead Money? Even on Hardcore, that is a busted way to get ammo. Especially when you get free vouchers after the DLC.

[@Nr4747]

@@Green-Raccoon777 You can also wait for merchants to restock, craft quite a bit of ammo (especially with Handloader) or use a sidearm for weaker enemies (or if you're running low on ammo).

[@Green-Raccoon777]

@@Nr4747 That takes too long, requires a perk with the appropriate resources, and involves using a gun with it's own weight and ammo supply.

[@Nr4747]

@@Green-Raccoon777 You can just use the wait-function to get merchants to restock and Handloader is a great perk for guns-only-runs anyway. I'm not sure what the rest of your comment is about, tbh. Yes, using a gun and ammo requires using said gun and said ammo, you correctly noticed that - and ? It's not like any of this weighs several hundred pounds, even on hardcore. I'm a hoarder in F:NV myself, but you can quite easily cut down your carryweight when you have to (Honest Hearts without high Survival for example) and it's not an issue, even on hardcore.

you could do an NCR-aligned Service Rifle run, and get the unique version from Honest Hearts, as well as the Elite Riot Gear from Lonesome Road

[@JoJoRogain]

That's how I did it. Armed to the Teeth mod, I've got a full auto Survivalist Rifle, console command reload speed for Sleight of Hand and run speed, explosive carbon fiber AM SR, Lucky Revolver, and Stabhappy (?). Military motorcycle and Mercy w/ plasma rounds depending on mood. Arcade Gannon in his Tesla Armor scaled to FO4 proportions among other companions including Raul in USMC Desert Ranger w/ matching Gobi Camp SR and ED-E. Hardcore mode and spawning armguarded Airborne Combat Armor NCR troops and legion tent groups as targets. Worth trying for fun

One of my favorite builds. I'm only 30s in the video but that ping baby oh

[@InsaneFrame]

All about the ping man! just the reload is so good with this weapon!

[@HeisBeppo]

I wondered if a challenge could be done with only survival crafted items. Only armors, healing, and weapons from campfires. Anything you need to get for crafting, you harvest or kill to get, but the items are for crafting only. If you can't make any weapons, you can use them fists of yours.

[@InsaneFrame]

I am actually going to be doing a playthrough soon enough which is similar to this :)

[@HeisBeppo]

I've got something to look forward to then.

[@EldritchJake]

New Vegas with only the compliance regulator, not the most difficult run but should have plenty of funny moments

[@voidrangeit]

ah a one piece referance first mate of the red hair pirate

[@asturias0267]

I started playing this game again recently and was using this for a while. It was pretty neat while I was using it, but it feels like it has some problems. Ammo is decently rare to find in bulk, but luckily I started the game with the idea to heavily use ammo crafting since I'd nevere tried it out before. It got replaced by the All American as soon as I could use it effectively.

[@mastermikey7984]

A battle rifle is a weapon based off of the M1 Garand. In my opinion, it's one of the best guns. I use it in most of my regular playthroughs

[@InsaneFrame]

Such a good workhorse weapon whilst not the absolute best weapon its still a solid all rounder and simply the ping when you reload is just amazing!
