Hopeville

Fallout: New Vegas guide · Entering the ruined city
← All areas in this guide

Hopeville is the first ruined settlement the Courier encounters in the Divide during the Lonesome Road add-on. You must navigate through destroyed military barracks, collapsed highways, and silo bunkers while avoiding warheads and ambush-heavy ruins. The primary objective is to reach the marked bunker and locate ED-E to gain the ability to detonate dormant nuclear warheads.

Tips

  • Look for unexploded warheads embedded in debris; once you obtain the Laser Detonator, they can be safely triggered from a distance to eliminate nearby Marked Men and clear paths.
  • Keep ED-E close once activated, as his enhanced sensors counteract the stealth fields used by ambushers in the ruins.
