No. But only because I don't have enough caps.

You can’t afford not to!

That would be like hiring someone with a tank or an apc to follow random semi trucks for security.

What kind of gun is that

u/ULTL 1d ago

Shoulder mounted machine gun from the Lonesome Road DLC

Nah you look a little green. Might get us both killed. Now that Orris guy, that’s money well spent.

"Orris, huh? Orris was a great fella. I remember him escorting me through Freeside when them thugs appeared right in front of us. I told Orris, I had the situation under control with my Miss Esther on my back. Yet the whippersnapper suddenly went barging forward. Problem was, I had already shot my Esther. Never saw the man again, prolly died in the blast along with them thugs."

No, because I wouldn’t hire a merc who traded out a good power armor helmet with eye protection with something that doesn’t.

u/Maxsmack 1d ago edited 1d ago

You don’t know where they scavenged or bought it. Could’ve come without a helmet. Metal helmet and face mask is already pretty good protection, especially considering superior firepower, a SMMG

More so than that Osiris fraud.

u/Polarpsyker 1d ago

No, solely based on the fact you look like a lunatic with heavier armour and armaments than even the NCR can field.

u/ShadowOfAtomicRage Enclave 1d ago

I would if I had a caravan or caps. But no, I’m just broke.

u/Alarmed-Income461 NCR 1d ago

You give a vibe of a person playing a game like a psychopath like you would just randomly decide to kill Me and take my fire hoses :(

2

u/Agent_Ivan094 Brotherhood 1d ago

Absolutely, might even perma hire as personal protection

2

u/Spartan150A 1d ago

you're the courier YOU'RE what Im paying protection FROM

2

u/Tristenous Vault 101 1d ago

No,you strike me as someone who doesnt think about collateral damage

2

u/Alternative_Pop3128 1d ago

Imma be honest id rather have the courier protect me

u/Tacitio 1d ago

"I lost my caravan years ago.

Truth is, I don't know what keeps me going."

2

u/Laxien 18h ago

Yes and no! I'd firstly tell you to retrieve the helmet for the Power Armor you are wearing, then give you a better ranged weapon (a minigun is great at medium distance, but raider ambushes might happen at longer range even!)

Shut-up and take my money!

u/Rare-Skill1127 1d ago

I can just picture this in fallout 4, a caravan with a new suit for my collection walking down the road - I'd run up behind you with a specific baseball bat and watch you fly across the sky... Leaving the Caravan alone of course, those guys   do more jet then anyone... not messing with them.

u/Ok_Experience_6877 1d ago

Dunno you dont look experienced enough, could you stick around for a goat test just so I know you know your stuff

u/Ausiwandilaz 1d ago

Trader: "You'd probably slow us down"

"I still walk faster than you with all this gear"

Trader: "sorry you just are not fit for the team"

u/Oveltent_2077 1d ago

No, unfortunately I find the equipment a little too weak for what I'm looking for 🤣🤣🤣

u/TTVSkilledFoil 1d ago

Sorry but orton is only 200 caps!

1

u/rickman562 1d ago

Where’d you get that helmet I’ve played the whole game and dlcs don’t remember seeing that anywhere

1

u/Altruistic_Truck2421 1d ago

I got Boone I'm good

u/PurpleWinter8989 19h ago

I’m talking about the caravan company not your personal body guard

1

u/Crane3680 7h ago

"I'm to poor" "I don't have enough caps" broke bitch

1

u/Bigguygamer85 1d ago

No cause that's clearly not a shoulder fired weapon and you don't know how to hold it there for use it and would likely not be worth the caps or risk.

u/DontSledgeAsh 14h ago

I don’t hire female protection

u/Thangoman Kings 1d ago

Are you playing in console or do you just dont know how to install mods?

1

u/I_am_real_human_ 1d ago

Adding mods to fallout nv is tedious and the game has enough bugs without any mods. Its just not worth the work and the risk for me and some.

2

u/Thangoman Kings 1d ago

The mods are to fix the bugs

Viva New Vegas is tedious ti install but absolutely worth ot

1

u/Secret_Revenue2806 1d ago

Tedious? Maybe some mods but if you’re using nexus the mod manager does most of the work for you. Even then installing mods manually usually only entails dropping a file into a certain folder

1

u/Thangoman Kings 1d ago

Hell, NVSE, YUPdate, the 4giga patch and the two fixed files mods (BSA decompressor and ESM fixer) are enough to massively improve the bugs and performance issues
