Talk:NCR military police

Since I don't know how to create a page, this is the closest I can find. While most NCR MP's are labeled consistently, I encountered one named "NCR Trooper MP" - or rather, he came to me. I happened to be in Ambassador Crocker's office when he ran in and forced dialogue. He told me that he finally managed to get me when I was not on the Strip (I'm hardly ever on the Strip), that nobody fucks with the NCR, and that he was going to give me what was coming to me (kill me). He attacked, my follower killed him quickly, but then the Ambassador and other NCR NPCs got into the action, and soon I had suffered a major infamy hit with the NCR. What's odd about this, other than the fact that no one else seems to have experienced this (I haven't found a page for it), is that I have never done anything that gave me NCR infamy. In other words, I don't know what he was sore about. I searched the body and there was nothing to indicate that he was some sort of plant or spy.

I figured I'd like to see what happened if no other NCR NPCs were around to complicate things. So, with the intention of trying to re-encounter him in a remote area, I reloaded the autosave from when I entered the building, ran out fast, and he was just getting to the door. He forced dialogue, but since I was now on the Strip, he was "friendly." He had nothing interesting to say, just basically a "goodbye" option. Since that time he has been standing in the same spot. I went back into the ambassador's office and he did not come in again, and I haven't had him come at me anywhere else.

If anyone can point me to an undocumented quest for this, that'd be sweet.--GryphonQ 05:42, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

I've had the same thing happen to me, even though i was idolized by the NCR.(Xbox 360)Schwal 05:51, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

Same thing happened with me: after talking to the ambassador, the MP's attack me and my party. Reloaded a save game and tried the following: took off the rebreather (boomer faction item?), and hung around at the premises before entering the ambassey. The MP will come to you while standing outside, and will ask "What do you want?", to which you can reply "I need to get going.". After this encounter, apparently he doesn't attack. --83.134.112.141 17:24, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Just encountered the same strange thing. I was liked by the NCR, had no problems with them, but after I finished the Boomer Quest and went on the King's Quest for the Ambassador, the "NCR Trooper MP" came, said the same thing and attacked me - with the same consequences of all other NCR NPCs in the area going hostile. Reloading and leaving the area seemed to help, as outside the NPC only gets the "What do you want" dialog. So, no, you are not alone :-) Irian 16:58, November 9, 2010 (UTC)

This just happened to me in the REPCONN Headquarters. I had just started taking the tour with the robot when he barged in, gave that "nobody fucks with the NCR" line and initiated combat (I'm NCR idolized and not wearing any faction gear). So I loaded the auto save and went back to the Strip based on what was reading here. Hit wait for 12 hours, and sure as hell, he rushes up but instead gives something along the lines of "what do you want?" where the only option is to say goodbye. Ok, whatever psycho. Continued my business and haven't seen the guy since.

Same thing happened to me on both my playthroughs, one with neutral NCR rep and one with idolized NCR rep. The guy only seems to initiate combat with you if you're inside a building, if you're outside he initiates dialogue then doesn't do anything. WTF? Can't find any form of quest this ties in with, and I haven't done anything to piss off the NCR. (yet) 188.222.38.132 01:55, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I just had exactly the same encounter outside Lucky 38 and exactly the same dialogue, only this time the NPC was Alerio, the spy for Caesar's Legion, not NCR Military Police. Character model was identical though, maybe this ties into some kind of quest to expose Alerio as a spy? 188.222.38.132 23:57, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

This just happened to me but i was outside at the gun runners place looking to buy some good mods. i have been neutral with the NCR the whole game. I did however want to get the ranger veteran armor asap, so i posed as a legion guy and killed them that way so there was no loss of NCR rep or infamy of any kind. Then i continued to play for probably half an hour to an hour until the NCR Trooper MP found me at the gun runners. i am really confused and i dont want to be shunned by the NCR. did anyone else above do what i did to get the ranger veteran armor?

This happened to me inside of Michael Angelo's. The Trooper appeared, said something about me not paying my dues, and attacked me. I reloaded and he didn't reappear there, but came running up to me when I exited Michael Angelo's. He initiated dialogue just like last time, but now he simply asked me what the hell I wanted. I said goodbye and he walked off.

FWIW I was idolized by the NCR at the time.64.126.183.34 13:14, November 25, 2010 (UTC)

Just happened to me too, repeatable as well. Just shoddy programming again I imagine. 93.205.248.30 11:40, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Lol, I found a hilarious way of killing him without getting my own hands dirty. I was near the embassy when I spotted him coming towards me, so I began running away before he could initiate dialogue just to see how far I could get him to chase me. I exited the strip into Freeside and waited a bit but he wasn't coming through the gates. So I used the "wait" function for 1 hour, and then out he came. A split second later, the Securitrons spotted him, identified him as a trespasser, and promptly shot him to death, lmao!174.0.106.101 15:56, December 13, 2010 (UTC)

THis just happened to me to. I am also Idolized by the NCR. This ude jst walks yp to me and does his rant and attacks. so I reloaded and Finished the last Crocker mission wearing NCR Bandoleer armor and he left me alone. WTF! BEthesda EXPLAIN!!!

Happened to me inside of Michael Angelo's place too. First time i killed him but i was idolized by the NCR so i reloaded the save. I got my reward and, as I was leaving, the fag came again said the same thing then attacked. I was going to attack then reload the game again but I accidently pulled out the camera. I changed weapons but i was too late since ED-E had burnt him to a crisp. I lost no rep with the NCR so I went on doing what I felt.

This happen to me as well for the first time. I Decided I was going to re-do the entire game (+4 ending) as a female. After doing the NCR Path, House and Yes Man path and I did my Legion path. During my Legion path I did some things for the NCR before I turned and stabbed them in the back to help Caesar (Ave, Caesar!) During which when I went to Crocker's Office after completing King's Gambit. An MP comes in goes about how no one fucks with the NCR and bam ruins my great plan. I reloaded the Auto-Save and it still happen, so immediately after finishing King's Gambit I entered console commands and teleported myself to Novac. This seem to work for the time being. However, a couple in game days passed and he kept coming back and I continued the console process. It finally ended when he some how managed to "Fast Travel" to "The Fort" in order to apprehend me. After getting himself killed by Legionaries at The Fort it never occurred again.

I think we can change the hostile MP thing to confirmed. It happened to me when my reputation with the NCR was Good-natured Rascal just after I hacked Ambassador Crocker's terminal (no one saw it tho). If it matters, I'm not Idiolized by the NCR because I slaughtered some NCR squatters during G.I. Blues.

Same happened to me, only after Pacer walked away from the Silver Rush. After I got my pay, I walked out and that delusional MP ran up to me and delivered his line. I didn't want to kill him for my reputation, so I reloaded an autosave, but it happened again. Fortunately, Pacer hadn't made it far, and killed him for me. --Wierdperson31 00:53, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

This has just happend to me. It must be a bug, but this was happening as i took the "Kings Gambit" quest. This worked for me after reading your help and a few reloads. Loaded the autosave as I enter the embassey. then leave it, he comes up and says something random, to my option is goodbye. then he just stands there. hope this works for you and I'll keep you updated if anything happens after I finish the quest etc

He's just a bully actually, just pay him and expose him to Ambassador Crocker.

Griefer MP FAIL
The Griefing MP Showed up while i was inside The fort! he said nobody FUCKs with the ncr and lives. thn i exited the dialogue and he was murdered by 3 chainsaw wielding legioners LMAO. he's really scary when he stands there talking smack and im waiting for 6 blood thirsty legioners to show up and own his ass.

NCR MP attacking glitch
First off, this talk page is fucking awful. No structure at all. Secondly, I believe the character is scripted to assault you outside the strip after doing something that is anti NCR (I for one had just assassinated Alice McLafferty before heading to the embassy), but is glitched in that the script does not check for your faction status. I will check the GECK to see if I can find anything about him and his script.

Also, he is not tied in any way with Alerio, and I had killed him already and this guy still showed up. --Saphireking65 02:58, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

MP helmets
I've seen a couple of photos from the 50s, in which people (military personnel) had hates with MP in big white letters, much like the helmets the NCR military police wear. Notably, one has Elvis right beside him:

MP Hostility
I can't be bothered reading through the wall of text at the top of the page, so I'll leave this: I think the reason the MP forces dialogue and attacks is because of the Strip reputation, not NCR. I encountered him for the first time when my Strip fame reached Shunned (also for the first time, it's always been Neutral or higher), while my NCR fame was Accepted. Also, he mentions something about it being 'his Strip' and that he was protecting it. AR700SAW 17:56, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

It's pretty clear you didn't read anything on this page. It has nothing whatsoever to do with strip faction, it has to do with the NPC failing to make a faction check when indoors 74.136.242.77 18:58, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

I also just recently encountered this predicament.

I'm idolized by the NCR (Although I did work with the Legion behind their backs, but I didn't do anything to harm the NCR), I had just went to Liza at the NCR Embassy to start the quest "How Little We Know" and all of the sudden as I walk out the room an NCR Trooper MP comes up to me and tells me that "Nobody fucks with the NCR" even though I've been fucking my own ass trying to help them. After killing him I noticed I netted NCR infamy and everyone in the building became hostile. So I reloaded the AUTO save file and tried again, but this time he didn't come into the building. Afterwards I leave the Embassy and he runs up to me and forces a dialogue, he then says "What do you need?"

That was stupid, is this a bug or what? I know it can't be a unmarked quest, nor could it have been a side quest. Maybe Bethesda made a dumb coding error with that random event?

Yes, it is a script error. I looked at the interaction in the GECK and it seems they forgot to check the PC's negative strip rep. Merely showing up on the strip is enough to provoke this response. There are actually 3 similar confrontations that do in fact check the PC's rep correctly, so I assume it was an oversight. --68.40.255.57
