Talk:Fallout: New Vegas achievements and trophies

Quests
We certainly can assume that every quest will have a trophy. Why not slip in the quests we have now? Nukey (talk) 19:52, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Because the quests we have now are conjecture and speculation. The only known one is Ghost Town Firefight; I think that the rest of them should be deleted for now...
 * And we can't assume that all of the achievements will be linked to quests. It was a really cheap way to do achievements for Fallout 3, maybe Vegas will do it differently. Nitty Tok. 19:55, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Achivement Images
The images are up on 360Achivements. I dont know how to put them on there or else i would. Deus 11:11, October 3, 2010 (UTC)

Easier?
They seem easier to get then the ones in fallout 3 were... in F3 you had to hack 50 or pick 50 locks for them. this one it's 25. does this mean there might be fewer computers and locks? or do they simply want to make it easier on the player? i personaly hated the 50 hack one. took hours to find one that i hadn't already hacked--Silverfox6000 18:33, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Know When to Fold 'em
The conditions for this one are "Lose 3 Games of Caravan," as far as I'm aware. The one for winning 3 is called "Know When to Hold 'Em," as I just recieved it. Feel free to check. - LordSchmee (Laptop won't log me in)

Console does *not* necesarily disable achievements
In my experience console does not, as claimed in the article, disable achievements entirely. Certain commands (such as god mode) do, but others don't (e.g. give PC Mysterious Stranger's .44, tcai and others as well). --82.26.180.92 01:07, November 1, 2010 (UTC)

Mods DO NOT disable achievements.
i am playing a game of Fallout new vegas on the pc and i have received several achievements with mods enabled.


 * Seconding this, Mods do not disable achievements. Running about a dozen mods, (DarnUI, Better Lucky 38, Inventory Sorters, a few I made myself to put the stats of Armor I wanted onto the models of Armor I prefer visually, and more) and I have earned over 30 achievements. Mods do not interfere with achievements, as of the most recent version of the game.

Well I have done one playthrough mods loaded half way through with no problems (Hardcore). Now I've started a second playthrough (Normal mode), no problems with achievements until I reached lvl 28. Didn't get Globe Trotter or Master of the Mojave achievements using Exteneded NVR Generator and Luxury Hideout mods only. Both happened during the same session. :/ Kronnus 10:58, March 22, 2011 (UTC)

Upon further investigation into my issue (using Steam on PC), apparently the Steam app decided to lose the validation of my email address during the uncompleted achievements. Note to self: always check the security validation of your Steam account on PC before starting a session. Kronnus 06:54, March 23, 2011 (UTC)

The Gangs All Here Query
Do you actually have to complete the game with each companion for this achievement? I've recruited all companions but only for short amounts of time and completed all their particular quests in the meantime, but I didn't get the achievement. Any ideas? MiyuEmi 12:36, November 4, 2010 (UTC) No. You only need to hire them and you can let them go instantly. --Kd82 11:35, November 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Is there a bug with this achievement? I've hired all of the companions but no achievement.  Do they all have to be hired in one game? 193.120.145.210 14:17, November 9, 2010 (UTC)

Do something 10,000 times achievements
Do these kind of achievements accumulate across multiple playthroughs or each of them should be achieved within the same run? It seems, saving and reloading within the same run sets these counters back (e.g. you cannot kill & reload to do it 10k times). --Kd82 11:35, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

It seems that each achievement must be completed in one playthrough. I had to focus on different combat styles in different playthroughs to get them all. I'm on the 360.Taipanpenguin 07:44, December 10, 2010 (UTC)

Does earning any trophy negate getting another?
For instance if I get the "The house always wins" trophy does that mean I have to replay (or reload a old save) to earn the "Wild Card" trophy? What about the other quests in the game, does earning any of those make it impossible to get another on the same save? I was hoping I can finally get a platinum in one play through.


 * Yes. If you choose to do the Wild Card achievements, you will instantly fail 'The House Always Wins' and 'The House has Gone Bust', at least this is how it worked for me.  Doing the Wild Card achievements will also fail 'Render unto Ceasar'.  This forces multiple playthroughs to get all side quests completed which I'm not sure I like, but oh well.  193.120.145.210 14:19, November 9, 2010 (UTC)

Where to see Achievements/Trophies
I know this is a dumb question, but where do I go to see my Achievements? I'm on PC/Steamworks.GullyF 04:24, March 6, 2011 (UTC)GullyF

Hello, I too use Pc/Steamworks: On the Steam page/FO:NV, prior to launching the game file through Library, i view my achievements there. Not sure how you start your game but i have pinned Steam to my taskbar (Win7 user). Hope this helps. Kronnus 10:51, March 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * To access achievements in-game you need to open up the steam overlay (assuming you have it enabled) by pressing the assigned key (default is Shift+tab) and there will be a button in the overlay labeled "View all achievements"--24.10.250.136 19:05, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks to both of you, that did it.GullyF 00:13, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

Incomplete?
Yo guys, the other day i got some achievements that i can't seem to find anywhere on the net. One was something like: 'hear the whole sad story 3/4'. This was referring to hearing the history before the events of dead money from every character. And there was also one about hear about travels you are gonna undertake (1/5). This one popped up when Christine told about the other courier that went to the big empty. Hope you guys can help me find the other achievements.

Ain't that a kick in the head trophy
Recently i had to restart my game, because i accidentally erased my PS3 account. Now, when I finish "ain't that a kick in the head" instead of getting the "You got a trophy" box, a "you didn't get a trophy" box appears. What can I do?

74 of 75
I recently completed all of the possible achievements, but something went wrong. It says I only have 74 0f 75 unlocked and 1640 out of 1655 Gamerscore; I know I have all of them, and when I select view all it shows I have all 75 comlpeted. Others have had the same problem I know, so it isn't just me. Is there any word if this glitch/error will be fixed?

Thanks, XxSick DemonxX 18:59, October 15, 2011 (UTC)

Table problem?
I can't see the last column in the achievements table(illustration), however, I had issues with my low res laptop in the past.. i'd appreciate if someone can check if it works for them. If it is not only me, then removing class "va-table-full" fixed it for me. --Pseudon2 (talk) 01:17, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
