Forum:No house

I chose the option with Burke (with Black Widow) to "save" Megaton, but then I went on a rampage there and became hostile. Does this mean there's no way I can have a house, since I can't have the one in Megaton because they're hostile, and I can't have the one in Tenpenny because I didn't blow up Megaton?

To answer, I need more information.

1. Did you disarm the bomb?

2. Do you have the quest "The Power of the Atom"?

3. How many days ago did you become hostile toward Megaton in game time?

I may be able to help if I get this info.--71.162.23.249 00:15, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

1. No. I don't have a high enough Explosive skill yet.

2. I don't think so, and if I did, it completed itself when I used the Black Widow perk on Mr. Burke.

3. About 48 hours or so, possibly more.

1. You can boost it high enough if you use Mentats to raise your Perception.

2. The quest will not be complete until the bomb is neutralized, safely or spectacularly.

3. Any town will no longer be hostile if you wait for three days out of town. Wait for one more day, and you will most likely be able to enter without fear of being shot, slashed, and smacked.--71.162.23.249 00:49, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

If I declined taking the detonation device the first time meeting Mr. Burke (i.e. he disappeared after I talked to him), is there any way of detonating the bomb or obtaining the detonator, or do I have to defuse it now?

Thanks for all your help. 24.15.182.247 00:59, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure about that. There's no way to get the Fusion Pulse Charge, that's for sure. It might be possible, but I don't know. Most likely not, due to the fact that Mr. Burke has left town and hasn't told you where to meet him if you rig the bomb. Sorry, hop I've helped you.--72.65.211.232 10:59, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
