Forum:Friendly enclave soldier?!

So, I was wandering the wasteland to hunt, loot and get more caps when i got to somewhere north of VAPL-84(past the large bridge)and i noticed that there was a lone enclave soldier with a rocket launcher. Then i decided to go into VATS to take his head off with my handy dandy repeater, when I noticed that the bar of his name was blue so instead of blowing his head of i decided to sneak up on him. As i got closer I noticed that [HIDDEN] changed to [DETECTED] and out of curiosity i walked up to him and engaged in conversation. When I talked to him he only said "Yeah?" and I could only respond with "See you later.". Now, I am just wondering whether this is a run of the mill random encounter or something really screwed up?

 * This is after the waters of life quest if anyone is wondering
 * This is on the PS3 so there are no mods
 * He was not a wastelander in enclave armor since his name was "Enclave Soldier" when i was in VATS and when i spoke to him

Was this after the broken steel quests? Becuse after Who Dares Wins, some soldiers desert the enclave. Otherwise It's probably a bug or something. Hope You&#39;ve adjusted, I&#39;m Gabriel 14:36, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

I repeat, this is ON THE PS3, so no DLCs so far.GaZam360 14:49, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

I have about 5 friedly enclave soldiers at different points on the map, all wielding Missile launchers. Also, when the Regulators come to eat me, one is always friendly, and just stands there, occasionly saying "Hello." When attempting to engage in speech, he turns hostile, yells: "Aha! There you are!" when I was stood in front of him for the past few minutes. Fat Man Spoon 14:53, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Do you mean all of them stay in that area? And is it like a glitch or something?GaZam360 15:09, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
 * No, they are all at seperate points on the map, and respawn friendly. Such as: Rockbreakers last gas, Outside deathclaw place, outside raven rock and near Arefu. Fat Man Spoon 15:30, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

I ran into this guy as well on 360. If I remember right it was near Canterbury Commons, but it's been some time since. I don't remember where I was story-wise but I know it was before Broken Steel came out.--JiNX Bloodfang 17:02, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
