Raider spawn[]

Entering from Falls Church, four raiders always spawn right next to the door on the first trip. Can anyone corroborate this?—Preceding unsigned comment added by PositronicSpleen (talk • contribs) at 03:56, April 26, 2009. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

Yes, I experienced the same thing on the PS3. There were four, one of whom had a flamer. ～Iridia talk | contrib 01:51, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Confirming, including the flamer. PC GotY. These raiders seemed to ignore normal game mechanics. I went in stealth boy-cloaked and they detected me and went into search mode the moment I moved. Anywhere I moved, they followed right with me, so I could never get far enough away to safely chuck a grenade at them. If I shot at a wall with the Perforator, they ignored it and stayed next to me rather than go investigate the noise like any other NPC would. They didn't behave the way NPCs should have.

After killing them, I went a few meters toward the Mezzanine before realizing I was close to my carry limit, so I turned around to leave and get rid of loot. All four bodies had vanished. 97.73.64.152 22:46, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

As it turns out, these are the raiders who are supposed to spawn on the platform. I managed to sneak past them with the Chinese stealth suit and and they disappeared from behind me as I got near the platform. As soon as that happened, war broke out on the platform. Those exact same raiders were up there fighting with the ghouls. The script that spawns these raiders must be bugged. 97.73.64.148 02:13, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Duck & Cover[]

Playing the german version several times with diffenerent patches the Duck'nCover-Skillbook NEVER spawned for me. Can anyone give a more detailed description, where the book should be. I assume it is on the level with the kiosk on the upper level, but in the ticket booth between the stairs surrounded with barricades. I find only normal destroyed books on the floor, but no skillbook and no health box and no missile ????? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.135.92.176 (talk • contribs) at 07:11, June 19, 2009.

This book (and the goodies) only spawns when character has reached Level 9. Confirmed on PC.
