Enemies outside of Megaton

[YoloSwaggins]

Every time I leave Megaton, there is some sort of high level enemy spawned there, right outside the doors.

Most of the time it is an Albino Radscorpion, but more recently I saw a deathclaw there.

The enemies aren't much of an issue to kill but it's the risk they pose to the passing traders and the deputy.

Has anyone else experienced this, is there a fix?

Post your load order. Anything that could potentially add spawns will need to be checked out. For what it's worth, I don't have this issue in my game.

[YoloSwaggins]

Actually, wait.

This seems to be a bug/feature of megaton.

Enemies occasionally spawn at the enterance of megaton.

What level are you?

[Thatchor]

Load order would be nice. I had the problem on the console, when the game first came out, but it was patched rather quickly.

In the mean time, get bigger guns?

[Cannibal_Kon]

Well I know things spawn outside megaton all the time but I've only been attacked by raiders and maybe once a giant ant(could be wrong). Are you a high level? I believe that's what TrickyVein was trying to figure out. If so that might make the spawner level up the enemies to meet criteria with your level.

I'm at level 3, and I just had an Enclave Soldier (in FNV's APA) spawn in the road by the farmhouse between Megaton and the Superduper mart. After killing him (blew up the car he was hiding behind- my 9mm wasn't even scratching him), I had an Outcast come over the hill, being chased by a Deathclaw. Killed the Deathclaw, then got blasted to bits by the Outcast.

Is this something TTW does, or is it another one of my mods? AFAIK, nothing should be changing spawns like that.

[JaxFirehart]

This sounds like a bit of wackiness caused by the random encounter system combined with Broken Steel making lone enclave spawn.

The lone Enclave was broken steel. Outcast patrols are fairly common in that area. A random encounter sometimes contains a crippled or wounded deathclaw. Sounds like some zany fun to me.

[The Unspeakable Horror]

It was certainly a surprise. :P

[The Unspeakable Horror]

Just as a follow up to my last post, I finally got to go back and try again. Enclave guy was still hanging out at the farmhouse. After a long drawn out gunfight, I finally (and barely) managed to him off... then I promptly got trampled by a herd of Mad Brahmin.

Gods, I love this game.
