*Spoiler Warning: Just in case, if you don't want even minor spoilers of New Vegas, tread carefully.
This is not a thread ripping on New Vegas. I do not know if what I am encountering is a bug, or an actual element of gameplay, and I would like to know if I need to suck it up, or there is something actually wrong with my game. (And I mean more than the usual bugging out, if it is a bug.)
I am playing as a girl, with Boone and Rex as companions. I have a pretty high karma level, and am villified by Caesar's Legion, and working with the NCR.
The problem is, I need to go visit Caesar to continue with the main quest, which is getting the Platinum Chip back. However, even if I am wearing Legion armour, I am attacked once I am inside the actual fort. (Sometimes, I am not attacked until I'm actually in Caesar's tent.) For example, I made it into the first part of the Fort from Cottonwood Cove. Once I entered the inner part, though, where Caesar's tent is, I will make my way there, with everyone showing up as allies, and then without me doing anything, they will become enemies and attack me.
For anyone who has played New Vegas, you will probably know that Caesar sends a messenger to you early in the game, telling you to come visit him, promising your protection. Of course, I was wary, and when I finally got around to visiting him, (wearing Legion armour) I was attacked on the way to his tent. I pushed my way through, though, and finally ended up talking to him, with about ten guards waiting to kill me the moment our conversation ended. In the conversation itself, Caesar told me that my protection was guarenteed, and gave me the Platinum Chip, telling me to go into the bunker and destroy whatever was in there. I'm going to assume that's what everyone has to do.
But I can't possibly continue this quest with the whole Legion at the fort attacking me. Sometimes I get killed before I can even exit the tent.
So my question is this: Am I screwed? Or has anyone else experianced similar problems to this? Or, is this just part of the game, and I need to fight my way through the Fort, even if I am supposed to be helping Caesar at the same time?
An important note would be that the game tends to lag a lot when I am around the Fort, and oftentimes, if I try to talk to one of those slaves on the cross, I won't be able to, and then afterwards switching from 3rd to 1st person gets completly screwed up. I usually end up stuck in 1st person view for a good while before I go into another area.
If anyone actually read this, thank you so much for reading until the end. Hopefully you guys have some input for me.
