Forum:Trouble In Big Town (final part)

Fallout noob 23:21, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

After saving Red and Shorty from the germantown police HQ and returning to bigtown I chose to not help Red defend bigtown because im playing an evil character. Unfortunately I already saved then read that you need to help defend bigtown to acquire the "Lucky 8 Ball" from Timebomb. I read that you can still help defend bigtown anyways but the mutants seem to spawn when im not there and kill everyone. I have also tried the reverse pickpocketing method but the residents were not equiping the items i gave them...So can i still acquire the "Lucky 8 Ball" or did i mess up by chosing not to help Red? Any info would be awesome! thanks!

Sorry. The mutants only appear as a scripted event if you agree to help. Even if you did kill some mutants, he wouldn't give you the 8-ball, because he wouldn't be aware of what you did. The game is scripted so that if you say "no", they will only spawn when you are gone.--CNavellier 00:27, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
