Talk:Lad's Life

Skill
It's unarmed, according to QA tester Pushasha. Don't change it back to survival without solid evidence. Thanks. :) -- 19:20, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * There was a boxing one somewhere, I thought that was it? Nitty Tok. 19:22, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

@Nitty, I think you're thinking of Pugilism Illustrated. But I haven't heard any word on that being in the game officially yet, or if it's a skill magazine and not skillbook in New Vegas. --Volundarkvioa 19:29, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Kris, I got the information that it was Survival from Intact Garden Gnome on the Bethesda Forums. He said that it was +10 to Survival. He got the info from PAX and played the demo. Perhaps they changed A Lad's Life from Unarmed to Survival in the final cut?
 * No, it was called, like, Boxing Times or Boxing Quarterly. I can't find it now. Nitty Tok. 19:31, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Edit: It WAS Boxing Times. Tezzla requested that it be deleted, but I dunno why. Nitty Tok. 19:33, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

That sounds like the magazine; this one's the book. I still say we should go by what Pushasha says until such a time as that information is confirmed by a more definitive source, or contradicted. -- 19:33, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, Pushasha isn't actually allowed to correct our mistakes on things... Nitty Tok. 19:35, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and undeleted Boxing Times; whether A Lad's Life is for Unarmed or Survival, Boxing Times doesn't conflict with it since one's a skill magazine and the other is a skill book. I'm fine with leaving the page as-is until we know for sure which it is. -- 19:38, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. And if it turns out that this one is for Unarmed and not Survival, I'll put "I was wrong, Deadlykris was right" on my page. XD --Volundarkvioa 19:41, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

Book or magazine
Short of looking it up in the GECK (which isn't released yet) or using it, how does one tell if something is a magazine or a skill book? More to the point, is this a skill book or a magazine? -- 12:22, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

You know when it is a book, because if you select that item in your pip-boy, the action will say "read" for books and "use" for magazines.
