reactor key card

Post by Sc0pE »

? You use the keycards to open the various doors in the reactor.

Doesn't work for me either.

I'd suggest someone run the editor and look at the key card and try and find it's use.

It'd be alot easier.

By saying i think, one would assume you haven't tried it yourself. That card is completely useless.

I bet they'll put it in Fallout 3 because the marketing department says it's popular.

I remember trying it in the Gecko... used it to every door and that computer ---> nothing.

I didn't try it on the wheel thing that you can use to shut down the reactor, but I don't think it would do anything.

I checked the scripts, and there is NO reference whatsoever to object 305 being "used" nor checked within your inventory.

And that folks is why you should sell the godforsaken keycard and stop creating threads about it.

Finally, a 100% sure confirmation of the card being useless.

BTW in Gecko in the reactor with the comp. Do you ever speak to the Enclave? It would have been cool if the soldier would have done what he threatened to do and would have send a squad shooting Gecko full o holes.
I kinda scared the first time I got the Enclave on the screen... big dudes in advanced power armor.... big guns... and they're after me? Gotta get out of here quickly :)

But wouldn't it be cool if they had holed the place up?

I actually waited for a few days for them and returned to Gecko after several months and nothing. Very lazy people.

Yeah, same here... I tried it again later and you can tell him so much crap, the thing's hillarious - and it's not a damn contamporary reference... So that egg was really good.
