So he last two more page beyond page 11

 

[Azira]

Go a bit south and around the mountain ridge. Look for the Leve'Lup'e mine or whatever it's called.

Have some fun there.

What? Why isn't Vargas sending you guys to Highpool while we're covering for Ag Center?

Too far away, Echo One. What's the matter? Can't handle a bunch of wreckers?

Nah, my team's just not motivated enough. Maybe this job doesn't suit us afterall.

As expected, you slant-eyes are not cut out for this kind of work.

Excuse me?

You guys seem to be fully intent in just 'having fun' while the rest of the world burns. That's fine, leave it to us to clean up the mess.

Hey, asshole - we did our job just fine. But we're not sticking around for this boring shit.

Maybe it's just boring cause you did it wrong. Get a fine squad going, team dynamics and suddenly the tedium vanish in a blink of an eye... Don't you just love it when a plan comes together?

... Whatever, man.

Gotta go. Don't forget to sell off your bullets too, cause we'll need plenty of them if we want to protect the wastelands for you folks!

Guys, Able's right. Maybe we're doing it wrong.

Truth be told, we're doing just fine. A little slow, maybe cause we're still new at this shit. A little half-assed, perhaps.

You wanna start power-gaming be my guest. I'm still bored. Stabbing shit's boring. And I spent most of the fight just waiting for the enemies to come at me, or kite zombies with a shotgun.

Give it another roll. This is my project. And you are all my team. I will manage. Somehow.

Not like we got anything more fun to do anyway. I reached New Vegas in two hours on Hard-Hardcore. Sheeesh, Sawyer.

I'm in. I still want to figure out if this monocle helps a lot with sniping.

Three on one...fuck. You better make it fun for me.

I will. That's a promise.

Hey, you're back, Echo Team. Here to hand in your Ranger Stars?

Hell no. Gimme your 5.56s and show me your guns.

My pleasure. I've got a FAMAS Rifle here and a classic double-barreled shotgun.

We'll take them. I'll take the scope too.

Steve, new gun.

Fuck yeah.

Difen, two shotguns are better than one.

Mmmm-hmm.

All set. Let's go.

Wait. Lemme trade in this spray paint can I got off a toaster.

What?

Some minor shit. Trust me, won't take long.

Thanks for the book, man.

Not even sure who should take that.

Eh, just hold on to it. It's worth a lot of money too.

Alright team. Highpool.

A few days of march later...

Can't believe Vargas sent his best team on patrol while our team gets the tough jobs.

You scared?

Hell no. It's just the ludonarrative dissonance giving me butthurt, that's all.

Get your game on. No more whining - get in position while 47 recon.

They'll never see me coming.

Lots of damage, but no sign of survivors. We're too late.

Any sign of the wreckers?

None so far, movement up ahead, a bunch of wildlife - probably hostiles.

You heard him. Echo team, set-up.

Gunshot! Let's do this.

 

[RK47]

Spoiler

Keep looking for survivors. There has to be a few prisoners.

Wreckers up ahead.

Are they the talking sort?

No.

Take them down from range.

There were only three of them. One died a single sniper fire, while the rest ate bullets trying to get a stab in.

Keep going. There's gotta be more of them, they've not finished looting the place.

That building would be great for sniper perch...

Head up top and nail those threats then.

I'm up. Got 2.

Take the shot.

Spoiler

Calm down, we're on your side. I noticed the holster. You with the Red Skorpions?

And why wouldn't I? They actually showed up when you call'em, unlike the Rangers. In fact, I'm heading to the Prison as soon as we're done here.

You sure they showed up? The whole place is pretty much destroyed.

At least they tried, asshole. And they didn't know they were gonna be up against robots!

Robots? Are you sure?

Didn't you see it? The Skorpions finally killed it above the outflow pipes, but it took'em all with it. Don't know what it was doin' here, or even if it was with the Wrecking Crew, but goddamn it was strong. Tore those poor militia boys into tiny pieces.

Look, we didn't delay aid on purpose. Ag Center called in too, they had an outbreak we had to handle.

Of course you'd go there first. Rangers help Rangers - or ex-Rangers, like that dipshit Matt Forrestal. Everybody else can get slaughtered. Thanks a lot, punks.

Hey, fuck you! We risked our butts getting here and we just saved your ass.

Never mind him. How bad was the fight?

I told you, it wasn't a fight. Well, the first wave was, but those Wreckers just kept coming. Destroyed our crane, killed Kate, cracked the reservoir... it was a slaughter.

Who's Kate?

Kate Preston. Probably the smartest person in Highpool. But she didn't know the ways of the wide, cruel world. Tried to reason with that Jackhammer bitch, and got her head knocked in for her trouble.

I admit, it's pretty bad. But can Highpool recover?

Not a chance. You'd think the Rangers would have kept a better eye on the place that provides them with most of their water. Well, it's wrecked now. You're gonna go thirsty for your sins.

Sins?! Fuck you A-Hole! You heard of something called 'OASIS?!' It's a magical place in the wasteland that provides fresh water you can actually drink. We don't need this shit hole!

Good for you, I'm headed for the Prison. Where my friends are.

Why? What's there?

Your old HQ has been flourishing in your absence. The Red Skorps moved in and built it up real nice. Take care of their people too. You should give them a visit. Might learn a thing or two.

Yeah, right.

Look, I know Highpool's beyond help, but do you know where the Wreckers' camp are?

Why do you care? They already killed us! What's the point?

I just want some bloody satisfaction. Work out some aggression and shit.

Fine, go for it. Here. Go ahead, wreck the shit out of them. But it's not going to bring Highpool back.

Tell me more about these Wreckers

Jackhammer *points to the dead body* and her thugs. Call themselves the Wrecking Crew. Stole everything that isn't nailed down. Hell, they'll probably get another leader once they learned Jackhammer's down.

You seem butthurt. What's your problem with Rangers?

After your history with us, you're damn right we got a problem with you all! You've been tolerated here, but you weren't ever loved. And after this... Well, there's nobody left to hate you. Nobody but me.

A shotgun blast to the face will fix that tiny mistake.

Easy now. What history? Nobody told us shit.

I don't wanna go there~

We should never go there~

I guess ol' Snake ain't too keen to teach his new recruits the truth about the Rangers' glorious history. Well, lemme fill you in. Fifteen years ago, you fuckers come out here and shot a little orphan boy's dog, and then you shot the kid. My nephew, Bobby, who weren't armed with nothing but a BB gun. A BB GUN!

Where's the kid now? Is he still alive?

He's where the Rangers can't hurt him no more. I visit his grave every day. And Rex's too. A dog and his boy, together forever.

Please don't judge me, and I won't judge you.

Let it be beautiful~

Everything I say right now is gonna be used in another fight and I've been through this many times. Can we change the subject?

Just let the past, be just the past.

Focus on things that are gonna make us laugh.

Fuck you, Rangers. I'm off.

Wait, before you go - what's in the safe?

Nothing. Just a stupid note. I though there'd be a gun or something worth taking to the Prison...

Fine. Goodbye.

We search for more survivors, but turns out Sean was the only one.

The Wrecking crew really wrecked the place. We pushed on, looking for the radio tower, in the faint hope that it's still intact.
Further ahead, we found a robot wreckage.

Rose salvaged a second Synth part, I'm sure someone in the Citadel wants to take a closer look at this.
We finally arrive at the tower, or what's left of it.

Looks like we're gonna be meeting the Red Skorpions soon.

 

[laclongquan]

Hmmmm... What happen if you choose Highpool instead of Ag center?

do the infected sites still exist? Do we get more infor about prison before visiting there?

 

[RK47]

Hmmmm... What happen if you choose Highpool instead of Ag center?

do the infected sites still exist? Do we get more infor about prison before visiting there?

If we do that it's probably going to be plant rape by the time we get to Ag Center. Matt will die etc.
Basically doing either first will render the second hub's content to be cut by around 90%

I'm guessing it's
A. Highpool > Destroyed Ag Center > Damonta
B. Ag Center > Destroyed Highpool > Damonta

There should be some changes to how people react to you etc. We'll see.

 

[Azira]

I did Highpool first. Ag Center gets destroyed. The only survivor is the punk with a pea-shooter who attacks you as soon as you figure out all the blood isn't his.
You get to loot some serum you can treat the three infected sites with, and the "Herbicide" energy weapon. Ag Center's sattelite dish is too damaged by overgrowth once you get there.

So basically, you save one, damn the other. Not sure when the lockdown for a set path is though.

 

[RK47]

Spoiler

We salvaged an antenna from the fallen tower.
Who knows it might be useful.

We took a slight detour to settle accounts with the Wreckers.

 

[RK47]

A whole camp of dead Wreckers later...

Spoiler

It's time to go. We've done all we can here.

It's gonna get tougher from here on out boys...

Really? I'm not too worried.

So.. here we are.

Something about this game camera pisses me off. Like... I can't see the bigger picture of an area.

This pre-recorded message is brought to you by RSM Enterprises Inc.

What the shit is this?

Well, look no further. Happy Valley is the answer to your prayers.

They couldn't have chosen a more ironic name.

Lemme guess, the twist here is that the Valley is full of unhappy people.

Formerly the Arizona State Maximum Security Prison, but now an attractive community managed by the folks at RSM Enterprises Inc. You won't believe how safe you feel nestled within the sheltering borders of Happy Valley.

Should've just gone with Little Lamplight. Much more cooler.

For real, bro?

Yeah, children's death animations. I wanna see some.

With 24 hour canine security patrols, and our "Circle the Wagons" street plan, you'll never need to worry about being alone or unprotected again.

Would be nice if all this is true and Rangers are the bad guys all along.

Hey, don't talk like that about the Rangers!

Well, you guys did kill the kid at Highpool.

Now here's Commander Danforth, founder of RSM Enterprises, with a personal welcome to all potential Happy Valley Homesteaders.

This should be good.

Hey folks, don't let those damn rangers tell you otherwise. Happy Valley is the safest place in the wastes, so get your lot quick before they're gone.

You... you shouldn't say damn. It's a sales pitch.

Aw, hell. Sorry.

4 out of 7. Will listen again.

Don't like the sound of that Commander. Doubt we'll get along. This place doesn't look a happy place so far...

No kidding, not a soul in sight so far...

Wait, picking up something on the radio!

Elroy... Are you there? Please... answer me...

Sometimes I wonder why we can't respond to radio transmissions.

She sounds like she's in great distress. We should try finding her and render aid if we can.

Will do.

Boss, wasn't the mission was to head to Daytona or something?

Damonta. Yeah, but we lack the intel on the precise location of this settlement. Based on that guy we met in Highpool, the Skorps trade with them often. Someone in town should know where Damonta is.

Hey, look! Up ahead!

Always looking to trade. What do you have?

Well, I'd love to but I'm a little busy trying to get my wagon out of this ditch.

How can we help?

Help? For me or for the town? If you wanna help the town, you're too late. Ever since the Scorps moved into your old HQ, they've stolen, burned and raped everything in this valley.

And I really mean EVERYTHING. Folks are leaving in droves. No point for me to stay around too, took all I could, loaded up my wagon and got stuck in a ditch barely minutes of leaving. So.. a little help?

Okay. Let's have a look at your wagon. Anything broken?

I'll give it a go.

Forget it, don't waste your legs.

Whoa, what's wrong with your goat. Why is it screaming like that?

Seen too much shit. Way too much. Lots of screaming around these parts.

Sorry to hear that.

Hnnnnnghhh! Got it!

Now I can get the hell out of here. Wanna trade anything before I leave?

Yeah sure. You must travel around a lot. Seen anything interesting in the wastes?

Well, I've watched this place go to shit since you Rangers left. That's worth mentioning. What else... I once got chased by this huge, red worm-looking thing, acid dripping from its mouth. I had the Rids to my back, so I had no way to run.

Rids? Huge red worm-looking thing? Acid-dripping what are those?

It ate one of my goats, swallowed it in two bites, but kept coming. Thought I was royally fucked, gonna end up as worm food twice over. Then this blue woman -

Yeah, glowing blue! - comes SCREAMING out of the rad clouds and starts wailing on the worm. I ran like hell, and didn't look back. Hope that angel of a woman survived.

Nice story.

Oh, there's this... place. This place I came by on my way here. Out of the way, very peaceful.

Really?

Yeah, Brewer here, my goat - it stopped screaming for nearly a week after we went there. Baa'd like normal, not-making-me-shit-myself goat instead. It was nice while it lasted. Here, I'll show its location on the map.

Thanks. We're trying to find our way to Damonta, any idea how?

You'll wanna ask Red about that. He's forever going on about Damonta this and Damonta that. Might head out there myself, if I can find rad suits to fit this goat!

Who's Red?

A junk shop owner. Top of the Goat Hill. Just listen for the screams. Watch out for his turrets, though. If you don't have a password, they'll chew you up. He calls it his 'Preferred Customer Code.'

Sounds like a friendly guy. Do you know what the password is?

Hmm. Last time I went up there I think it was "PREFERED," but he changes it up a lot.

Any rad suits for sale?

Nope. Way out of my range. Try Red instead. But watch out, he's a sharp trader, not a kindly sort like me.

Anything else you know about the Red Skorpions?

Callin them that is an insult to scorpions. They keep saying they're the law around here, but telling people what to do and killing them if they don't do it isn't the same as the law.

Uh... actually, it kinda is.

Well that's not how I remember it!

I'll see you around, Fred. Take care now.

 

[Azira]

I vote you try and force your way past the guns.

You know. For fun.

Right?

 

[RK47]

Spoiler

Very subtle.

Such a Happy Valley.

Yeah, we're Rangers. Don't worry, we're not here to steal anything.

Yeah, I remember you monkeys. You left here fifteen years ago. Maybe it was good for you, but it's been bad for us. Specially since the Red Skorpions took over.

Why the heck didn't they radio Rangers for help?

Think of the original reason of why Rangers left this shithole.

He's right. There's nothing of value here for the Rangers.

How's the Red Skorpions treating you all?

They're making new rules faster than you can spit. Pig licenses, farm taxes, trade tariffs. I liked it better when the raiders just raid you. Least it was over with quick.

They took your pigs?

Yes! They told me I didn't have a pig license, so they confiscated them all, gave all to Farmer Auwaerter. Guess he had a license. I could use some help getting them back.

Strange name for a farmer.

He's one of the new settlers the Skorpions been bringing in. Don't know why his farm is doing so well when all the rest of us is dying, but I hear he's a personal friend of Commander Danforth's, so that might just have something to do with it.

Good to know old world values still hold true in the workplace.

We're trying to make our way to Damonta, you know anything about it?

Got more traders coming from there lately. Sold some of my pigs to them. Gotta have rad suits to get there though. Least ways, that's what they told me. If you're looking to buy rad suits, check with Red.

The junk salesman?

Yeah, lives on Goat Hill. Careful going up there. Got some turrets, that'll make hash out of you. You need his customer code to get past it.

What's the code?

He changes it a lot. But I think it was "CODE" last time I paid him a visit.

So.. about your pigs.

I fail to see how rescuing his pigs will stop the Skorps from taking them away form him again.

Maybe it'll give him enough capital to leave this shithole forever.

You look upset boss.

Yeah, this is pretty depressing. Rangers just went up and left this place - and not giving a damn about the ones left behind.

Look, we can't be responsible for everything. We made our choice to leave, they made theirs to stay.

Yeah, but I still wanna make things right.

Focus on the mission already. And drop the role-playing. It's nauseating.

Thanks for setting up the mood, Mr. Fargo. I think we've gathered enough anger now to turn Super Saiyan Ranger 2.

C'mon. Let's go.

Poor thing, if we were in my lab, I could help her.

Hey, what's wrong?

What? No way. We're not gonna do that. You're sick right? Anything you can do to help?

Please... end the pain.

I don't know. I can't diagnose shit. The game won't let me.

Only the McGuffin would save her.

Or a bullet to the head.

It's EXP lah.

Suit yourself.

Hi. How are you doing?

Terrible. We're low on water and the well's damaged. Red Skorpions won't help and my husband's just spending his time drinking his bottle of Squeezins.

I thought Red Skorpions are in charge of things here.

It's a one-way street. They took our crops, equipment, any day now they'll take the farm too. The price of law and order, they said. Hah! I call it murder by inches. They hung ol' George on that toppled tower to remind us what happens when we break their laws.

What did George do?

He was just asking them why we had to follow their laws. That was their answer. Wish we could afford to move to Damonta, but that ain't gonna happen.

What can you tell me about Damonta?

Believe it's off to the east. Plenty of our neighbors been heading there. Me and Marco, we're too tired to move. Besides, we need rad suits to get there and we can't afford Red's price.

Oh? You knew the customer code too?

Yeah, it was 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9

Riiiiiight.

Thanks anyway. We'll take a look at your pump.

That would be mighty kind of you, Rangers.

Well?

I dunno boss. I can't risk it. I might break it, permanently. I really don't know -

Practice a bit. Get a point.

Fine. I can get it right 3 out of 10 times now... But.. I might still break it too.

Do it. The folks won't last long without water, and I doubt the Skorpions would be so kind to fix it for free.

We're sorry about that. C'mon. Let's go.

Ouchie-fucking-jeez man! Everyone's so negative in this town!

Can you blame them? They're deep in shit. With no end in sight.

Aw hell...

What happened to her?

This place's gone to hell.

Think we can take them on?

I don't know. You're seasoned, but these guys are in the business of killing far longer than you.

Steve, can you fix this?

Sure thing, chief.

The crane controls drops a makeshift bridge for us to get to the higher level of settlement...

What's going on here?

Before we answer that question, what's the deal with that woman just now?

Tsk, such a minor thing. She was crying out side the General Store because she hadn't brought enough scrip to pay for food, and when we caught her she couldn't pay her Tranquility Disturbance Tax either. I feel for her, truly, but the law is the law. Her husband should have taught her better.

Bullshit. Spare your feelings, all I see coming out of your mouth is the overwhelming pungent aroma of smugness that needs to be smothered by an epic shit down your throat.

Yeah, fuck you dirty Suitist.

What the hell is a 'Tranquility Disturbance Tax'?

It is levied against anyone making unpleasant noises in public - a sensible measure that assures the peace of mind of the whole community. And since I am the Assessor, it is my job to assess taxes owed by residents and visitors to our town. And it's Chaos' job to collect them.

Well, good thing my friend here is Order. This is Justice, and I am the Lawl.

You mentioned scrips. What are those?

Those residents of Happy Valley who do not have farms of their own are welcome to work on Jim Auwaerter's farm. All work is paid in scrip, which can be spent just like money at the RSM General Store.

You call this place a Happy Valley?

Why, yes. Formerly known as Ranger HQ, and before that the Arizona State Maximum Security Prison, it is now transformed by the forward-thinking, civic-minded visionaries at RSM Enterprises Inc. into a lush, peaceful patrolled community for the discerning homesteader who-

Fuck you. We're done here.

Yeah, we'll be leaving now.

Oh, I'm afraid we're not done here.

What?

There's the matter of weapons tax. In attempt to curb violence and the over-proliferation of weapons, the RSM Governing Council has instituted a weapon tax. That will be $100, payable directly to me, now. Will you pay it?

Fuck off.

You can't even be bothered to fix the broken water pump. Nor look after the welfare of your people. No. We're keeping our money.

Non-compliance with the tax is against the law. I'm afraid we'll have to confiscate your weapons.

Come and try it, Suitist!

Boys!

 

[RK47]

Spoiler

Do you have any supplies for trade?

Why, yes we do! We have everything you could want right here under one roof. Food, water, household goods, clothing, you name it. Oh, I'm sorry though, folks. We only accept Skorpion Skrip here at the General Store. No cash or trade allowed.

So the only way to get these skrips is to work at the farm?

Why, yes.

I see. We'll be back.

Pleasure to serve you. Come back any time.

Let's go get some payback.

Hey buddy, where you going. You're heading into the Skorps territory! They'll shoot trespassers!

Shut up.

Angela, get them out.

Their complex is too well-fortified. It's impossible for a head-on assault.

We've got heavy weapons.

No. Save it. Keep looking. There's gotta be another way into their compound.

I know you're upset about the loss but should we really be doing this?

We saved your life too. You owe us double since Ag Center. If you want to leave, you have to pay. Call it Life Tax. *raises shotgun* With interest.

I'm not leaving.

Good.

Guard dogs, but why?

Could be something important hidden here. Rose, get that crane control working. I have a hunch...

There. Lock and load.

We're inside. They haven't spotted us yet. Plans?

Kill'em all.

Take up positions and engage.

 

[Shadenuat]

Remember 3 douches at Citadel, one of them with love for goat headbutting? They join you if one of your core characters die, AFAIK, replacing the loss.

Nice tip.

Spoiler

We still going in?

Maybe. Just one more. Our pack's getting loaded.

These guys are heavy hitters man, huge jump from the shit we kill in Ag Center and Highpool.

We got a little careless that's all.

Take their guns and let's feed them their own medicine.

No arguments from me.

Looks like we're inside their compound.

We got the higher ground.

Permission to engage?

Granted.

More of them..these fuckers are fast. Goddamn! Fucking patch this shit already!

Stay close. Call out for lobbers! Fuck them up as they come up the hills.

Already got two on our ass.

Oh well. Fuck'em anyway.

 

[RK47]

Spoiler

It was just 11% chance man! Besides, everyone within the earshot are dead by now. Alarm skill is worthless!

Well, if you succeed - you could still use the EXP.

Hmm... Good point. Didn't think of that. If I fail I'd just have to stand still for 5 minutes till my fingers recover.

Alright. Advance.

Chief, pack's getting loaded here. I think we gonna have to dump these salvage soon before we die from encumbrance.

Good point.

Just one more. C'mon. We're on a roll here.

Fine. One more.

Hmm, plenty of open field outside. We should draw them out.

Alright. Use the sniper then.

Game quickly became p. banal.

Spoiler

We were a team. When we set off on this mission together, I always thought it was somewhat appropriate that the Team's callsign is Echo. For us four were very similar to each other, like echoes. And now we've lost one. Three remains.

Despite his reclusive nature and shut-in lifestyle, 47 will always be remembered for his willingness to volunteer on dangerous tasks. His awareness and subsequent disarming of bomb threats have saved us a couple of wounds many times.

Not to mention his medical skills were competent and not as questionable as his dieting methods of consuming regular amounts of tuna wraps for dinner.

And just like us three, he would succumb to the occasional temptations of KFC and counter-fire while attempting to land the first sniper shot.

I offer these sins in a box that would someday prove to be our downfall. These sins that stood before us. Five pieces in one container. Halved from the original ten. Only $12.00

Peppered lightly on top, crispy outward appearances, with the ever-familiar juicy insides as a farewell gift to a brother-in-arms.

Rest easy, brother. Wherever you are.

Think he's watching us?

Nah... he's probably busy on the next weaboo game. This LP's done.

I'm afraid so.

How much further?

Any moment now. Can't wait until you meet your girl, sir?

I... I haven't seen Ava since we were in high school. I doubt she even remembers me.

The commander? Psh, not her! I mean the Sunrider! The newest ship in the fleet! Here, let me turn the ship around and give you a view.

That's... my ship?

Yeah, so advanced that the brass needed to train a new line of officers to fly her.

Looks like a fine vessel.

She sure is!

Harem ending?

That picture in the preview remind me The Fall: Last Days of Gaia.
