Sorry, I probably explained it poorly.
It is that armor, its just that before you start the BoS stuff it isn't faction tagged for some reason, most likely just a glitch.
Once the BoS stuff is started then it gets faction tagged.
Has anyone with the PC version turned off clipping and gone to see what's outside the boundaries of the map? There's ridiculously huge tracts of empty space on the west and northwest side of the map and also pretty much everything east of the Colorado river.
I, a lowly console user, am infinitely curious what the landscape out there looks like.

It's not the game breaking bugs killing me... just the invisible walls for no reason and the Friend of the Night perk being bugged. It says it works at night OR inside, but it only works inside if it's night outside too. How. Dumb.
And it's way prettier than turning up your brightness so... hush.
edit: I looked it up, it is just coded stupidly. If it checked indoors then time, it'd work as described. It checks time then indoors for no reason at all.
It's working as intended.

Caught it in the edit, lucky you!
It's not a big deal, I am just warning other people not to take it unless you want to get frustrated like me. 'cause you end up turning up the brightness super high to see inside anyway.
I've entirely buggered my playthrough. I can't even go near doors without the fucking thing resetting the PS3 now. How I've become such a glitch-magnet is beyond me. Is there something terribly wrong with using Boone and ED-E whilst trying to do the Wild Card missions?
I have ED-E, but I keep him/her/it in my room in Novac. I talked ot Old Lady Gibson, and the recording played. I don't know the next step, and he keep getting blown up. I know it is a limitation of the engine, but seeing a flying robot who can shoot lasers get its ass kicked to the point of exploding-- by three Legion jerks with machetes-- is hilarious. After that happened three times, I just told ED-E to stay in my room.
I've been staying away from lots of places until I feel like doing ED-E's quest. Just exploring mostly.

I don't know if this is a spoiler or not, so I'm going to mark it as such, this is basically what you need to do for that quest without naming any of the specifics.
Basically you have to talk to science-y type people who use words that might be the keywords that trigger his memory. But there's a cooldown after you get a new memory section, so you have to wait three days after getting one to go find another person who might have been related to the Enclave or their science projects.

god fuck that place. it wouldn't be so bad if you could mitigate radiation entirely, but by the time I finished and left I was entirely out of radaway and rapidly approaching max rads, where I'm pretty sure you instantly die.
lol I gave Veronica power armor and a power fist, she just runs around punching off heads.. where, I don't even know.. I just get the XP message and occasional kill-cam.
I guess it makes up for the fact that ED-E won't follow us down into vault 34... he doesn't like the rads I guess??
He may be broken after finishing his questline. To fix him, first empty his inventory because you'll lose everything you stored on him. Then open the console, click him, then type these commands in this order:
disable
enable
kill
resurrect
And then he'll start following and shooting with you again.
Does using the console disable achievements?
Googled this.
"WARNING: Using console commands in the Steam version of Fallout: New Vegas will prevent you from obtaining achievements! If you shut down and restart the game they will enable again! "
Oh that is horse shit. So I got fucked out of achievements because I used ToggleEmotions to make the game not run like shit.
Sucks, yeah but c'mon. People could just give themselves half the achievements in the game with console commands. Maybe see if you can modify that value permanently in an ini file or something?

It wouldn't have been so bad for me if I hadn't run out of ammo for my energy weapons.
And my flamer hadn't broke.

Pretty sure the sharecropper quest unlocks when you access the overseer's terminal, but I was almost at max rads and I didn't have time to read, only to run
Doing vault 34 right now, don't really see the hate. The constant ticking sound is a little annoying.. that's about it? Pop some Rad-X, that's what it's for. It goes up slowly enough.. I've only used 2 rad-away so far, and I have a stack of like 17... big deal. The ghouls are pathetic easy... using my custom 10mm smg, which rules by the way, and oh hey guess what the ghouls drop..

I did drown once though
My frustration with it was the layout and the constant backtracking to unlock doors.
And I had to stop playing for the night after I finished it because it had made me incredibly motion sick, trying to hurry through hallways.

fucked over the Sharecroppers. Sorry dudes, but you can always plant somewhere else. Those vault residents were going to die.
Besides, when I'm Lord Overseer of all New Vegas, I can give you better lands.
Wait
There were still living people in there other than Feral Ghouls?
well damn
Well
You never see them. But when you get to the Reactor terminal a message gets sent to you from residents in the blocked off area. They say they can escape if you give them reactor control. Doing so means you can't turn it off for the Sharecroppers though.

If you haven't met Veronica or started the BoS quests then there is a dead paladin
he's still there if you have met her/started the quest but the armor is then faction marked.
is hilarious and awesome.
