I've been playing the hell out of New Vegas for, oh, since the 1.2 patch came out and fixed the most annoying bugs and let the game shine. And one thing that has always thrown a legitimate pulse-quickening, eyes-narrowing, concentration-enhancing "OK, gotta use all my skill here" feeling into me is any time I see more than a single Deathclaw (like the one in Primm Pass or the one guarding the south train tunnel near Nellis AFB) in one place. Quarry Junction? RESPECT.
So imagine my absolute joy when near Gypsum Train Yard, from the very edge of the draw distance, with my Anti-Materiel Rifle I popped eight (I counted) Deathclaws with eight .50 caliber Match Hand Load rounds. One shot, one kill (hooray for Better Criticals and a couple of ranks of Lord Death). Didn't even trip the [CAUTION] status thanks to the range---just dead silence and a lot of dead Deathclaws. Even picked up an egg for Jas Wilkins in Sloan for my trouble.
And what did I say after the last Deathclaw died? I believe my exact words were "Oh, HELL YEAH!"
For Discussion: Got a cool story, bro? Share!
