— Carter, trying to escape the slavers.

Bugs[]

  • PCIcon pc PlayStation 3Icon ps3 Xbox 360Icon xbox360 Carter's head may not explode. This results in him standing still, unable to be engaged in conversation, but still killable. This is sometimes activated when the player tries talking with Carter when he's running away, but before his slave collar detonates.
  • PlayStation 3Icon ps3 Xbox 360Icon xbox360 When entering Paradise Falls for the first time, Carter is dead but has not been killed by slave collar as his head is still attached to his body along with slave collar.
