Reception
Could someone go check to see if the Junktown Jerkey Vendor book is actually in the reception area. I just went over the place with what I thought was a fine-toothed comb and came up empty. I did find a pre-war book in the reception area, but no "Tales...". Marstinson 02:18, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Grognak Issue #361(?)
In Hubris Comics there is a terminal that lets you turn on/off the printing presses which only causes a lot of smoke to emit from the presses. Another option in is Check Ink Levels, which simply says "Red Ink Low". Maybe there is a way to print an additional Grognak from here with the ink found in the Arlington Library?

I'd say yes to that if maybe the ink container wasn't used for Stealing Independence and if the reading 'program' was like it in ESIV:O but for most books you can only upgrade a skill i.e Grognak the Barbarian > Melee so if you could make more GtB books then you could have unlimited melee or like 20 more melee points and likee the Wasteland Survival guide isn't readable ( very annoying! ) so i don't think so :P &#91;color=maroon&#93;~C-e~r-b~u-r~u-s~&#91;/color&#93; 20:41, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

From our world perspective it is not logical to use red ink (but Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key or Black). Second, the ink from Stealing Independance should be black like the original declaration of independence. Third, it is not confirmed in G.E.C.K. (only the cut quest from printing the Wasteland Survival Guide yourself).

Printing press
As far as I can tell... There is no way to make the press work. However I have found that the smoke from turning on the printing press disables the turrets (they still work they just don't fire anymore). I'll admit this isn't too usefull for most people since they'll probably destroy the turrets before turning on the printing press, but there you are. Sneaking as far as the terminal is possible - and disabling the turrets does make the fight a little easier I guess.

Oh by the way - I also verified that the turrets do get disabled by turning on the press (in G.E.C.K.) - and they are turned back on if the press is turned off as far as I can tell... --DPaladin 23:36, 3 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Going by the GECK, it seems there was a cut objective for The Wasteland Survival Guide (quest stages 100 & 105) where you'd have to print the books yourself at Hubris Comics and bring them back to Moira (who at that point was apparently still called "Lea"). Probably you'd have had to use the Printing Press for that. // Porter21 U 00:55, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Creepy Things
In the Hubris Comics Publishing Area and I've had 3 events that I would only see in the Dunwich Building. I've had a plate fly at me and miss me by a hair, a shotgun blast went off on a corpse with no trigger traps or anything, and I've had bullets come from no where and shoot me. Glitch? (Xbox 360; Installed on HD; Feb 06, 2009)

This building is full of traps, perhaps you overlooked the tripwires ;) - PS3 GOTY not confirmed

Disappearing Baseballs
In Hubris Comics Publishing after tripping the three pitching machines and watching the baseballs pile up in the corner, I walked past the machines into the room right next to them. After scouting that room I went back to the corner and all of the baseballs were gone.

After entry to the room behind the pitching machines, the balls are all gone - PS3 GOTY confirmed

Happens on the 360 as well.--201.10.22.129 15:20, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Feral Ghouls
"* The feral ghouls occasionally appear friendly and will not fight."

Was this with or without a Ghoul Mask? Corinthian-blue 00:37, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

Without Ghoul Mask hostile - and with Ghoul Mask friendly until attacked - PS3 GOTY not confirmed

New Bug
Shooting the back of the disarmed booby trapped terminal in reception results in a the "this computer trap is disarmed..." message being displayed, you then have to hit "ok" 6 times for the message to go away. Xbox360 24.159.226.154 04:09, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
