Talk:Bye Bye Love

Bugs/glitches
Who is experiencing that carlitos and joana disappearing bug? I was able to complete the quest on the 360 yesterday. Is this bug effecting pc/360/ps3 users? Obmckenzie 15:31, October 25, 2010 (UTC)

Me. I believe this might be a PC-only glitch. Could you add that? Keimei 12:38, October 26, 2010 (GMT)

No I can't find Joana to tell her about the meet.

I'm playing on the PS3 and carlitos is missing Sarah says hes in the diner the quest marker shows he should be standing behind the counter but no ones there even waited hoping he just might be elsewhere but nope The Krypt Angel 22:17, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * She says that all the time, but I've almost always found him in his room sleeping.

Then I believe this is one of the most glitched quests in New Vegas right now. Keimei 23:08, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

I personally didn't have an issue with this quest at all. Playing on PC.- The Capulet 05:40, October 27, 2010 (UTC) Which indicates that these bugs are conditional, and the conditions need to be found. - The Capulet 05:40, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

I doubt it's a bug. The bosses are dead, and Joana's contract/whatnot is up (likely her life, if Cachino's in power), so conceivably, if How Little We Know is completed by siding with Cachino, Bye Bye Love resolves itself (another way, and not through the player's help). 98.149.25.150

On PS3, I got the bug with Joana disappearing if I complete the optional objective of talking to the guns for hire. 206.248.129.170 18:43, November 5, 2010 (UTC) ^ ^ This happens on the PC too.

I got it, too. It has to be conflicting with "How Little We Know". Both have vanished on me, and the map markers update when the two are supposed to be somewhere like sleeping or a the cafe etc. On an unrelated note. There is a group of 4 thugs in Joanna's room cell just outside the walls. KaisarDragon 20:37, November 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * I finished "How little we know" by siding with the bosses while this quest was active and got a quest failed message for it. Not sure how they are connected.

New bug: PC version, done some to-and-fro between Carlitos and Joana, and Carlitos has told me to chat to his hired guns. They are nowhere to be found (not in Atomic Wrangler), the quest does not list any objective at all, no quest marker - and talking to Joana and Carlitos simply gets you nowhere. Any ideas? (I have not started How Little We Know or anything). I don't care if it's a simple setstage command, or at least a hair brained idea of whose limbs I need to blow off with the Dinner Bell, I just need a workable answer!--Mctaff350 13:51, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * That is an optional part that appears once you are ready to tell Joana its time to go. Carlitos will say to meet him in Freeside between 12-6 (with Joana) and that they may need help. Even without the hired guns, you could still tell Joana you're ready. So, looks like your quest didn't update. KaisarDragon 17:00, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh. Yay. Thanks very much, though. Looks like I'll just dump the whole idea of doing the quest. Funnily enough, I visited Yes Man and have started How Little We Know, without having fully completed this quest. Ah well, looks like these quests were chained once but have been pulled apart (somewhat poorly).--Mctaff350
 * The quest How Little We Know was supposed to be given AFTER this. As Joana will give you the quest after you free her. So I assume if starting the How Little We Know before ending it will make the game think it is over. Either way, the game should never allowed the receptionist or anyone else to start the How Little We Know quest.
 * I got this too - Carlitos told me the plan, suggested talking to the hired guns... but there's no new objectives and there's no (new) dialogue options with Joana. I can't tell her about the plan, or anything... none of those setstage commands worked... although one added objectives I didn't even want...

i got the carlito from the vault being disappeared instead of joanna.map pointer show it to  the walls

This is gonna sound ridiculous, but I'm on 360, and I slept with Joanna once, but now every time I try to again it just brings up the sleep menu. Obviously not the most pressing matter, but annoying. Suggestions? Am I the only one who cares? (probably...)
 * You only get one go per "session". Once she gets off the bed you can engage her conversation again and have her return to the bed. This recycles the script and the bed becomes scripted instead of the usual bed script. However, if you agreed to help her in exchange for sex, you only get that one freebie and she's done forever with prostitution. KaisarDragon 05:28, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Where do they go?
After you complete this quest by helping Joana reunite with Carlitos, they begin to run and then exit Freeside through the north gates. If you manage to click on either Carlitos or Joana as they're leaving, they give new dialogue which suggests that they player should be able to encounter them again elsewhere in New Vegas. They something like "It's nice to see you again. This is our new home." (not that exactly, but something to that effect). So where do they go? I've tried following them through the gates but they disappear at this point. Do they get removed from the game entirely? If so, it's strange that they'd have that "our new home" dialogue scripted and voiced.174.0.106.101 07:03, December 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * I always assumed they left for Aerotech Park, though I never went to check. KaisarDragon 03:00, December 29, 2010 (UTC)

Patch
Did the patch fix the bugs? It'd be nice to update and clean up the Bugs section of the article if that's the case.--Gothemasticator 03:58, December 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * I did find a work around for PC. If you clip through Joanna's room and kill the 4 thugs, Carlitos will run to or, if already missing, appear in Freeside. Doesn't matter where Joanna is, talking to Carlitos there will have him act like the thugs appeared. Talking again will have him thank you. Joanna will then appear and also thank you, quest complete. In fact, you can kill those thugs this way and end all the run around. KaisarDragon 21:53, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

I wish... but they haven't fixed anything. This bug has been there since the start of the game, so I'm quite annoyed they haven't fixed it yet. =P Sigh. User:Keimei

Broken door to Joanna's room?
I'm having a bug where the door to Joanna's room is just a random door that says: press "e" to open/close, and when you activate it nothing happens. So essentially it's impossible for me to go to her room because it's not there and she never walks to it.

EDIT: Turns out it was a glitch in the: "Identity Crisis Part I" quest mod, and it has been fixed in a recent update.
