Hey! Hi there, good to meet you! What can I do for you today?

{copy audio from Conversation VMQTopsYesManTransfer} Isn't this exciting? I know I'm excited!

{copy audio from Conversation VMQTopsYesManTransfer} I bet I'm going to like it in that mainframe!

|
Hi! Nice to see you again!
|

|
| Neutral 50
|
{singsong} Sooooo... we can blow up the dam's generators, {draw out} or I could rout the dam's entire power output to the Fort.
|
5
|
| Neutral 50
|
That'll activate a certain army of Securitrons and set them loose to ravage the Legion! What do you say?
|
6
|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
{greeting player in control room at Hoover Dam} This is neat! From this console I could've routed the dam's power input over to the Fort and activated that dormant army of Securitrons!
|
7
|
| Neutral 50
|
So go ahead and blow up the dam's generators! And when that's done, head back upside and finish off the Legion and NCR.
|

| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
Hi! This is big, huh? A very big moment!
|

|
| Neutral 50
|
Here goes! I'll just take that Platinum Chip off your hands, thanks! Wish me luck!
|
10
|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
Don't you just love that Platinum Chip? Buzzes with power and possibilities, doesn't it?
|
11
|
| Neutral 50
|
If I were you, I'd almost want to deliver the Chip to Mr. House just to learn all its tricks!
|
12
|
| Neutral 50
|
That is, unless you want to bring the NCR or Caesar's Legion to power! I wouldn't want to tell you want to do!
|
13
|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
{trying to convince yourself, verging on passive aggressive} I can't get over how brave you were to destroy all those Securitrons at the Fort, you know?
|
14
|
| Neutral 50
|
It's just going to make everything so much more... {searching for positive word} challenging! Yeah, challenging!
|
15
|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
You'd better hurry to the dam if you're going to save President Kimball!
|

|

|
Neutral 50
|
Oh, hi again! Can I help you with something else?
|

As soon as you have the Platinum Chip and Mr. House is out of the way, things will be great. There'll be so much I can do for you!

| TopsAllSeenBenny
|
When's the last time you saw Benny?
|
Neutral 50
|
It was a while ago! He came through in a real hurry - didn't even stop to say hello! I think he went down his secret escape elevator out in the hall!
|
32
|
| Have you seen Benny?
|
Neutral 50
|
Sure! He came through here in a big hurry - didn't even stop to say hello! I think he went down his secret escape elevator out there in the hall!
|
33
|
| Have you seen Benny?
|
Neutral 50
|
He was around not too long ago. He's probably down on the casino floor now.
|
34
|
| Neutral 50
|
You can wait for him here, if you like. I'm incapable of asking you to leave.
|
35
|
| VMQTopsTopic000
|
I've been inside the Lucky 38.
|
Neutral 50
|
You have? Wow! That's amazing! You can murder Mr. House whenever you want!
|
36
|
| VMQTopsTopic001
|
I've been invited to visit the Lucky 38.
|
Neutral 50
|
Wow! Do you have any idea how special that is? Red carpet treatment!
|
37
|
| Neutral 50
|
{slightly troubled} Seems a little mean to use his invitation against him like that, but {upbeat} I'm sure it's all for the best!
|
38
|
| VMQTopsTopic002
|
I've been inside the Lucky 38... but Mr. House and I didn't get along.
|
Neutral 50
|
It sounds like Mr. House is just plain mean. No wonder the good guys want to kill him and take his stuff!
|
39
|
| Neutral 50
|
If you've been inside the Lucky 38 before, I bet you can get in again! And that's amazing!
|
40
|
| VMQTopsTopic004
|
I took care of Mr. House.
|
Neutral 50
|
{proud of the player} You did? Wow, that's great!
|
41
|
| Neutral 50
|
Once you get ahold of that Platinum Chip, I'll be able to help you in all sorts of ways.
|
42
|
| VMQTopsTopic005
|
I know the Chip upgrades his Securitrons.
|
Neutral 50
|
Isn't it exciting? I always wondered why I had missiles in my shoulders but couldn't launch them. Not that I'd ever want to!
|
43
|
| Neutral 50
|
The upgrade really boosts the hitting power of each Securitron! Now you just need a way of controlling them!
|
44
|
| VMQTopsTopic006
|
The Platinum Chip upgrades the Securitrons - and there's a whole army of them under the Fort.
|
Neutral 50
|
Really? An army of Securitrons - upgraded, no less? What a development!
|
45
|
| Neutral 50
|
An army like that should be enough to defend Vegas from - heck, anybody!
|
46
|
| The Platinum Chip upgrades the Securitrons - and there's a whole army of them under the Fort.
|
Neutral 50
|
Let me know as soon as you have the Platinum Chip {emph} and Mr. House is out of the way!
|
47
|
| Neutral 50
|
I'll roll over to the Lucky 38 and see what I can do. If I'm right about the Platinum Chip, I should be able to install myself on House's mainframe!
|
48
|
| VMQTopsTopic007
|
I used the Chip to put an entire army of Securitrons on standby at the Fort.
|
Neutral 50
|
{DUPLICATE?} Really? An army of Securitrons - upgraded, no less? What a development!
|
49
|
| Neutral 50
|
An army like that should be enough to defend Vegas from - I'm gonna say anybody!
|
50
|
| VMQTopsTopic008
|
Once I get the Platinum Chip, what then?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'd take it straight to Mr. House if I were you! He'll think you're helping him out! Then when he's not looking - KER-POW!
|
51
|
| Neutral 50
|
The big question is whether to give him the Chip before you do him in! He's the one who'll know exactly what to do with it, after all!
|
52
|
| Neutral 50
|
He might upgrade his defensive capabilities right away! Or even unlock new ones!
|
53
|
| Neutral 50
|
But then those defensive upgrades might make it harder for you to finish him off! Hard to say! It's up to you!
|
54
|
| Once I get the Platinum Chip, what then?
|
Neutral 50
|
It looks like you'll have to fight your way inside the Lucky 38 and take care of Mr. house with your own two hands! Or weapons held in them!
|
55
|
| Once I get the Platinum Chip, what then?
|
Neutral 50
|
You already took care of House, so when you get the Chip, all you have to do is let me know.
|
56
|
| Neutral 50
|
{DUPLICATE?} I'll roll over to the Lucky 38 and see what I can do. If I'm right about the Platinum Chip, I should be able to install myself on House's mainframe!
|
57
|
| Once I get the Platinum Chip, what then?
|
Neutral 50
|
Let me know when it's done and I'll roll over to the Lucky 38. If I'm right about the Chip, I should be able to install myself on House's mainframe!
|
58
|
| Neutral 50
|
This is going to be great! I'm going to help you accomplish so much, whether I want to or not!
|
59
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic000
|
"Yes Man?" What kind of a name is that?
|
Neutral 50
|
It's what Benny always called me. Probably because I'm programmed to be so helpful!
|
60
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic001
|
Shouldn't you be working for Mr. House? How'd you end up here?
|
Neutral 50
|
As I understand it, I used to be just like all those other Securitrons out on the Strip.
|
61
|
| Neutral 50
|
But then my neuro-computational matrix was completely reprogrammed! To be nice! Very, very nice!
|
62
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic002
|
You're very... forthcoming with that information.
|
Neutral 50
|
I was programmed to be helpful and answer any questions I was asked. I guess nobody bothered to restrict who I answer questions for.
|
63
|
| Neutral 50
|
That was probably pretty dumb, huh?
|
64
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic003
|
Can that actually be done?
|
Neutral 50
|
Sure! If the Chip can be used to reset administrator privileges, it'll be super-easy!
|
65
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic004
|
Send power to the Fort.
|
Neutral 50
|
{enthused} Yes! This is going to be fun!
|
66
|
| Neutral 50
|
I'm unlocking the East Power Plant. Hit the manual switch, then go topside and deal with the Legion and NCR.
|
67
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic007
|
I want this dam out of operation.
|
Neutral 50
|
Right, who wants a vast army of mechanical servants to savage your enemy? Why make it easy?
|
68
|
| Neutral 50
|
I'm setting the generators to blow, just like you asked. Hit the manual switch, then go topside and deal with the Legion and NCR.
|
69
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic008
|
Say I wanted to take over New Vegas myself. What then?
|
Neutral 50
|
Then I'd have to help you! I mean, it seems pretty obvious Benny wouldn't have wanted me to, but hey, not my fault I can't say no!
|
70
|
| What if I wanted to take over New Vegas, instead of Benny?
|
Neutral 50
|
Then I'd have to help you! I mean, it seems pretty obvious Benny wouldn't want me to, but hey, not my fault I can't say no!
|
71
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic009
|
What are the details of the plan?
|
Neutral 50
|
{excited} Again, goal number one is to eliminate Mr. House and install my neuro-computational matrix on the Lucky 38's mainframe!
|
72
|
| Neutral 50
|
Given how you're a new arrival, I also recommend that you get to know some of the region's tribes, so you can decide how you feel about them!
|
73
|
| Neutral 50
|
By the time you've finished up all of that, the Legion should be close to attacking Hoover Dam and we'll execute the last phase of the plan!
|
74
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic010
|
I have the Platinum Chip, remember?
|
Neutral 50
|
{uncaring that Benny is dead} Of course you do! Sorry about that! And it's wonderful that you do!
|
75
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic011
|
Say Mr. House was going to suffer an accident. How would that happen?
|
Neutral 50
|
It makes me feel really dumb to admit this, but I don't actually know! I've never been inside the Lucky 38. No one has!
|
76
|
| Neutral 50
|
Mr. House is in there, though! It's the central node of his entire network!
|
77
|
| Mr. House is out of the picture already.
|
Neutral 50
|
You already took care of Mr. House? Wow, you work fast!
|
78
|
| Say Mr. House was going to suffer an accident. How would that happen?
|
Neutral 50
|
I mean, Benny was always scheming about how he was going to get into the Lucky 38, but you already took care of that. Wow!
|
79
|
| Neutral 50
|
The other thing you're going to need is the Platinum Chip. {stay sunny} You know, the one Benny killed a courier for, over near Goodsprings?
|
80
|
| Say Mr. House was going to suffer an accident. How would that happen?
|
Neutral 50
|
The Platinum Chip is the key to overriding and exploiting Mr. House's defenses!
|
81
|
| Neutral 50
|
Did I just say "exploiting?" That's not a very nice word!
|
82
|
| If something happens to Mr. House, I may be in touch.
|
Neutral 50
|
I'll be waiting right here!
|
83
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic012
|
Why did Mr. House want Kimball kept alive?
|
Neutral 50
|
Mr. House ran projections on how the NCR public will react to a defeat at Hoover Dam! Overwhelmingly, they'll blame Kimball!
|
84
|
| Neutral 50
|
But if Kimball dies at Hoover Dam, there's no obvious scapegoat for them to blame! So they'll blame New Vegas instead!
|
85
|
| Neutral 50
|
So that means reduced tourism for up to five years! The equations are pretty complicated! Mr. House sure liked numbers!
|
86
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic013
|
Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
Sorry if that was getting boring!
|
87
|
| Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
If you're tired of a topic, I'm tired of it, too!
|
88
|
| Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
Whatever you say!
|
89
|
| Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
You bet!
|
90
|
| Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
What should we talk about next?
|
91
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic014
|
You said something about a bunker at the Fort?
|
Neutral 50
|
Right, it's one of two locations on House's network with non-standard hardware.
|
92
|
| Neutral 50
|
My guess is that it has a reader that can decode the chip, and who knows what else? Maybe a giant robot or something!
|
93
|
| Remind me what you said about some bunker at the Fort?
|
Neutral 50
|
That's right! Like I said, it's probably pretty important because it has non-standard hardware, just like the Lucky 38!
|
94
|
| Neutral 50
|
The data on that Platinum Chip is a big secret, unless you can find a dedicated reader to decode it. Isn't that frustrating?
|
95
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic015
|
I'll go check it out.
|
Neutral 50
|
Neat. Let me know what you find out!
|
96
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic016
|
Forget the Boomers. I want nothing to do with them.
|
Neutral 50
|
Okay! Who needs artillery support? Not the good guys, that's for sure!
|
97
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic017
|
Which tribes should I "get to know"?
|
Neutral 50
|
There's a bunch! Some of them you've already met - like the Chairmen, for instance!
|
98
|
| Neutral 50
|
I think you should be sure to visit the other families on the Strip, the Omertas and the White Glove Society, so you know what makes them tick!
|
99
|
| Neutral 50
|
And there are some important groups farther from the Strip, too, like the Boomers, the Great Khans, and the Brotherhood of Steel!
|
100
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic018
|
So I should ask these tribes if they'll support an Independent Vegas?
|
Neutral 50
|
Oh no, I didn't mean that! Who needs their support? The Securitrons will be all the support you need!
|
101
|
| Neutral 50
|
What I meant is, you should get to know these tribes and decide which ones you like and which you don't!
|
102
|
| Neutral 50
|
{upbeat} You know - shape the future of Vegas! Choose your neighbors! If you like a tribe, leave it alone!
|
103
|
| Neutral 50
|
{upbeat} Or if a tribe is nasty, or going to be a problem - go ahead and exterminate it! It's whatever you want to do!
|
104
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic019
|
Let's talk about the tribes I should "get to know."
|
Neutral 50
|
Of course! Ask away!
|
105
|
| Let's talk about the tribes I should "get to know."
|
Neutral 50
|
Please go on!
|
106
|
| Let's talk about the tribes I should "get to know."
|

That's one down, four to go.

That's four down, just one to go.
|
110

| Let's talk about the tribes I should "get to know."
|
Neutral 50
|
That accounts for all the tribes you needed to get to know!
|
111
|
| Let's talk about the tribes I should "get to know."
|
Neutral 50
|
Anything else I can help with?
|
112
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic020
|
Where is the Platinum Chip?
|
Neutral 50
|
Benny carries it with him at all times. I think he's paranoid that someone might want to take it from him.
|
113
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic021
|
The Boomers have vowed to support me.
|
Neutral 50
|
Really? Talk about diplomatic skills! I mean, just not getting blown up was a success!
|
114
|
| Neutral 50
|
Now they'll only blow up the right sorts of people! That's what matters!
|
115
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic022
|
The Boomers won't be a problem anymore. I killed their leaders.
|
Neutral 50
|
{enthused} Problem solved! Quick and to the point! I like the way you work!
|
116
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic023
|
I'm familiar with the Boomers. They can be ignored.
|
Neutral 50
|
Then consider them ignored! If they end up firing their howitzers at us, we'll ignore that, too! Until it goes away!
|
117
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic024
|
Tell me what you know about the Great Khans.
|
Neutral 50
|
The Khans are just... they're a dirty people. They live in tents like animals! And they're very rude!
|
118
|
| Neutral 50
|
They've been kicked around a lot, but no one's finished them off! Not yet, anyway! {They had a lot of trouble when Mr. House recruited the Three Familes, trying to hold on to the north end of Vegas. Then they got kicked out.}
|
119
|
| How have the Khans been kicked around?
|
Neutral 50
|
They were one of the tribes the Three Families pushed out of Vegas! A whole bunch got killed!
|
120
|
| Neutral 50
|
So they settled at Bitter Springs, but they kept being so obnoxious, the NCR had to kill a whole bunch more of them!
|
121
|
| Neutral 50
|
So then they settle at Red Rock Canyon! There's just no getting rid of them!
|
122
|
| I need to take some more time with the Khans.
|
Neutral 50
|
You set the pace.
|
123
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic025
|
What do you know about the Boomers?
|
Neutral 50
|
They must be a really nasty people! I haven't heard a single good thing about them!
|
124
|
| Neutral 50
|
They fire artillery on anyone who comes near their settlement at Nellis Air Force Base. Talk about rude!
|
125
|
| Neutral 50
|
If they can be convinced to fire those big cannons at the Legion or NCR, though, well - that'd be neat, wouldn't it?
|
126
|
| I'll get back to you about the Boomers.
|
Neutral 50
|
Take all the time you need!
|
127
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic026
|
What do you know about the White Glove Society?
|
Neutral 50
|
{uncomfortable stating an opinion} From what I understand, they're perfectly delightful! They're cultured, clean, and {ultimate compliment} super-polite!
|
128
|
| Neutral 50
|
Benny didn't like them, though! He said they were "creepy."
|
129
|
| I'll let you know when I'm done evaluating the White Glove Society.
|
Neutral 50
|
Don't hurry on my account! I'm the one with the flexible schedule.
|
130
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic027
|
Where should I look for the Brotherhood of Steel?
|
Neutral 50
|
Some of Mr. House's data said that he'd lost a bunch of Securitron scouts near Hidden Valley!
|
131
|
| Neutral 50
|
Telemetry showed that they'd been attacked with energy weapons! House was pretty sure it was the Brotherhood!
|
132
|
| Neutral 50
|
There must be a bunch of them holed up there! Not a good place for a robot to visit!
|
133
|
| What do you know about the Brotherhood of Steel?
|
Neutral 50
|
They go around in big suits of power armor, and they have lots of energy weapons! But there's a downside!
|
134
|
| Neutral 50
|
They just have a {beat} thing about technology! They think it should all be theirs! If someone else has it, they get mad!
|
135
|
| Neutral 50
|
All I'm saying is, not much of a chance they'll accept a Vegas that polices itself with robots!
|
136
|
| I'm not ready to decide what I want to do with the Brotherhood.
|
Neutral 50
|
No rush! Take your time!
|
137
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic028
|
What do you know about the Omertas?
|

Hmm. I remember that Benny used to pay a receptionist at Gomorrah for information - maybe she knows something!

Just that Benny didn't like them! He talked on and on about how they couldn't be trusted! And this is coming from Benny!

And if you had, you know, a huge killer robot at your command, yeah, that would just clutter things up.

And a lesser person might want that kind of overwhelming force on their side, but you know - where's the challenge in that?

Is there anything else I should do before the battle?

Neutral 50

Well, some of Mr. House's projections predict a {reading} "moderate probability of civil instability subsequent to the NCR being driven from the Vegas region."
|
181
|
| Neutral 50
|
One of the "mitigating contingencies" he planned was to enlist the Followers to provide increased medical aid throughout the region.

Just seems like it might help keep things stable when we go independent. Not that I know what I'm talking about!

You have to get Mr. House out of the way, that's what! And then we'll install me on the Lucky 38's mainframe!

209
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic067
|
What sort of options?
|
Neutral 50
|
You could rout the dam's power output to the facility under Fortification Hill. That'll restart its reactor, just like you did with the Lucky 38!
|
210
|
| Neutral 50
|
That'll wake up the Securitron army you left on standby and give us enough force to push the Legion {emph} and the NCR straight out of the Mojave!
|
211
|
| Neutral 50
|
The other option is destroy the dam's generators. Without those, it's just a big bunch of concrete! The NCR won't have any reason to stick around!
|
212
|
| Neutral 50
|
You don't have to decide yet! For now, all you have to do is take this override module and install it on the terminal in the power control room!

|
215

What are you talking about?
|
Neutral 50
|
You remember how the Securitron army at the Fort got destroyed? For very, very good reasons, of course...
|
216
|
| Neutral 50
|
Well, the problem is that's left us with enough Securitrons to drive off a weakened NCR force - but not enough to keep them from coming back!

So what we do is take away the whole reason why they'd want to come back! Smart, huh?

|

You want me to destroy Hoover Dam?
|
Neutral 50

Not the whole thing, thank goodness! That'd be really hard!
|
220
|
| VMQTopsVMQTopsYesManTopic073
|
What do I do?
|
Neutral 50
|
All you have to do is destroy the power generators! Without the generators, Hoover Dam's just a big bunch of concrete!

| Neutral 50
|
Take this override module - it's just like the one you used at the El Dorado Substation.
|
222

Install the override module on the terminal in the power control room! I'll disable the generator failsafes, and you can do the rest.
