Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition

[Garfield2010]

Having played and registered the original game on steam a few years back I was hesitant to buy the complete edition as I was only going to get the expansions as I already owned the original and the price did not justify this.

However last Thursday I got the Ultimate edition for R49 on that crazy Incredible Connection sale.

Now I want to know the following:-

How should I go about playing the expansion packs?

Considering I do not have my old saved games etc should I just play through the game again or is there a specific place to "activate" the expansion packs in game? Which ones should I play first etc?

Make sure to first activate the key's there is no order you have to play them but some of them are required to be level 20+, one of them was very easy since I was level 36 at the time when I got the DLC, but its well worth it if your level 20 since then its hard as hell.

I had to start over when I got the expansion packs, and it was quite a few levels before I could access any of them due to level restrictions.

Thanks guys

I think I will start over and replay the game in any case. I never met the mutants although I read about them afterwards and will head in a new directions. I will also make a few different decisions this time round. I still wont join the legion but I will for example not kill Mr House this time.

Also apparently the DLC packs included additional missions in the normal game and new areas so I expect one hell of a journey. At least this journey can be completed unlike Skyrim.....
