Fallout: New Vegas - Know When To Fold Them (Caravan Explanation)

[xxZEMROIDxx]

could someone tell me what im doing wrong? i did exactly as in the video but when i had three 10s in the table it didnt let me put the 9s... ???

[xxZEMROIDxx]

@xxZEMROIDxx never mind i had to pull the left stick down once xD

[sparkybigptalkshow]

I still have no clue what I'm doing.

[redizzle79]

i still couldn't figure this fucking game out. lol

[pocco13]

ah help i did exactly what you two said and i have all 10 on the bottom row but it wont let me lay a 9 down is my game glitched its red over every card and nothing else can be played eather

[RanciDxSicknesS]

If you play a jack then the card it was played on gets removed

[2421523456sgdsgdsgds]

This achievement is bullshit, i had 2 stacks of cards which were scored 26 but the game didn't give me the win and instead forced me to carry on until i had no more cards.

So as i doing the final stack, the computer places a King on one of my 26 scored stacks which makes that stack worth over 30 so i don't get the win.

This achievement is pure fucking luck.

[Zorgdub]

@2421523456sgdsgdsgds The game only stops when ALL THREE stacks are at 21-26. So you had to make sure the third one would quickly reach that level before one of your caravan "busted" past 26.

That wasn't a problem of luck, that was just you missing the basic rule of "when does the game end?"

[Assassino6101]

Inception

[OGLoneWolf1882]

rainman could do it and he was a ratard

[TheChizzaberry808]

Christ, I'm still confused...

[thunderlord2200]

THX SO MUCH. no video came close to explain how to play this as good or as clear as u guys did, thanks

[XMrRootBeerX]

so did your caravan deck is that the one the guy in goodsprings gives you?

[DustyDrB]

You guys did a great job explaining this. I might actually play caravan some the next time I start another game of New Vegas.

[TheFallout135]

@dog73988 suggestion: go to the medical center near crimson caravan company and ask for a luck implant

[fso520]

Brilliant... Caravan was always something I just didn't understand... I think I get it now!! Cheers guys!

[iTzNathannn]

@DoctorR3D yes but the whole point of this video was to show how to get the acheivement. Not to show if caravan was cool or not

[Vindictator1972]

7's 9's and 10's all you need.

[dog73988]

i lost all my caps trying to win lots of caps at blackjack they fuckin cheat i tell yuy

[ThePlaceCannel]

I had 26 all across the board and i still lost.. whaat the fuck is with this sub game?

[HollowMist]

Nice strategy. I just guessed and won 3 times

[DoctorR3D]

You know what....to hell with caravan. I have more fun jacking nigga's bottle caps >:O

[soapypsb]

Now if I can just get my NPCs to stop having 7 kings and 12 jacks in their fucking decks I should have no problem.

[liqzy]

FInally , lol ty , first person i beat was the bartender girl in the mojave outpost

[SuperFritiof]

I finnaly understand!

[00BLACKX]

New patch killed that strategy since the computer now keeps putting fucking jacks and knights on your decks to fuck it all up !!!

[mrstenify]

Don't play at The Gunrunners with Isaac, he cheats

[123456789Viewr]

I don't see why they couldn't just explain it like that in the game.

[xHydraHD]

Thank you so much!

[pureblackeagle]

this game makes no fucking sense!

[mrnobynob]

thank you :)

[Rabbix9906]

UGH!!!! i didnt do this when i did the win 30 games of caravan >:( i just kept on trying until i got it and nearly ripped my hair out!

[NitroXLGaming]

this is bullshit

[Juggaloco27]

AWESOME VIDEO!!! I had no clue how to play this yesterday. Ive had this game since the day it came out too. got the collector's edition. All I need are the 2 caravan trophies and I get the platinum. I didnt even watch the entire video, and I COMPLETELY undetstand how to play lol. All I need now is 30 more caravan wins, then game over lol. THE AUTHOR(S) of this vid are DOPE!!

[sw204me]

@Juggaloco27 Dude, RoosterTeeth is the fucking shit, that whole group/company is fucking awesome. 

[AddamHusayin]

@Juggaloco27 what!?

[GiantSlayer276]

I honestly thought I understood it after this, but im doing domething wrong, It won't let me place ANY cards after my first 3

[Kamikaze1655]

I dont understand the NCPs put a card on top of one of mine and then remove it. Please help

[fyrestorme123]

@Kamikaze1655 when you play a jack on top of any card, it removes that card from the stack

kings double the point value of the card they are placed on. queens reverse the direction (up or down) that you can place cards in terms of point-values. jokers when placed remove every card of the same type of card you place it on except for the one you place it on.

[Felaide]

wow i had two rows with 26s the comp had one with 19 2nd row i had to get that one to 26 to win also man ringo is cheating me

[ainsleywainsley]

lol i got a government anti online gambling add before this video

[mattafields]

how do you get a black achevment screen

[mattafields]

Caravan is a real game before New Veges

[iikarlosx]

Thanks

[ZorkFox]

Achievement Hunter, you're my hero! *swoon*

[ProtoGinger1]

helped out alot out of 35 games i only lost 5

[Nicoisdabomb]

i think they updated the game so this method really doesnt work as well... I may be wrong though but it never works anymore

[ZorkFox]

@Nicoisdabomb If you want to use it to make money, the update hurts you because it fixed bugs. If you just want to use it to get the achievement, it works wonders against Ringo because he's a total n00b: the worst thing he'll do it play a jack on one of your caravans, leaving you free to fill the other two.

[IIIICLUTCHIIII]

Fallout never gets old...

[Qballamus]

This is so dumb i lose every time ! fuck caravan!

[no1cp]

@Qballamus Try bumping up your "Luck" attribute. That should really help.

[Qballamus]

@no1cp thnx 4 the advice, i made a new guy with higher luck and ive actualy won a few times, i got the first cheevo for winning 3 games. i also bot more 7's 9's and 10's at gibsons scrap yard. she will restock if u skipp 3 days ahead, anyway thnx for the help, and good luck any1 tryin to get this cheevo!

[phoenix2039]

It wasn't confusing not at all ;) also a big thanks for the achievement guide Ach hunters for the win!

[crueltaco101]

now i now haw to play!!!

[puggleGG]

should have just added poker...

[ryanflippinharris]

Ahh! This helps so much!

[Tyge111]

wish theyed switched caravan for blackjack or craps or somthing like that

[cole15miller]

Hey everyone thumbs this up i figured out a way to win more and fix the losing card pile when u get 26 and the person messe's up your row of card's well what u do is clear that secetion of cards if they make it over 30+ just clear that and re do that pile better luck 25% hope it makes sense enough

[iViewable]

Why do they always put cards onto my 26 and fuck me over.

[paramedion]

thanks for the guide, what the fuck did the developers really think when putting this dumb shit in the game? it;s an awful idea

[rynofizzy]

I think I speak for many when I say, WAAAAAAAAA?!?!?!?!?

[flaredragon16]

I will finally win caravan Holy Shit

[Teeheehee093]

seems easy :)

[TeMonkeyAvenger]

-Head Explodes-

[boats752]

Wait wtf evry time i tray this i get 26 in all three spots and he get 2 and like a 34 i always fail cus i run outa cards

[CrazySauce91911]

lol, this is the best strategy ever, its almost cheating lol :P

[massdestruction15]

@nousernameswhy yep when i finally got past this achievment i was very happy started to fucking hate that game!

[cade1015]

Thank you lol I had no idea how to play caravan I tried to figure it out for a few hours but I couldnt

[alipallyzx]

No one gives half a fuck about movietoobs us go fuck yourselves spam bots

[Darkendscythe]

Thanks your videos are great keep them up



[theoldtimeshmm]

Can someone please list the people that can play caravan with you other than NCR people?

[Uhntissuhntissuhn]

@theoldtimeshmm dude like ever person in the game

[wyatt1daniel]

i beted 500 now lol now im going to high roller :)

[aVeryStrangeGuy]

Keeps jacks incase of problems makes it easier

[TheCheeesyOne]

yeh this just doesn't work after a while. as jake7x7 said they just put their cards on top of yours

[massdestruction15]

recommended cards:

10

9

7

king

put a 10 in each row followed by a 9 and 7 in the 1st 2nd then 3rd row

use kings to place in the opponents caravan to raise his total above 26

it is very simple.

[massdestruction15]

after dead money i never find myself short on caps, i have over 200k

[hattrickster33]

If you don't get caravan from the in-game tutorials (which are completely redundant) you're an idiot.

[NothingFanboy]

This video and comments don't even help. I'll never get either achievement because I guess I can't understand this stupid game well enough.

[MrCappy53]

what a boring game.

[Fallout3Fan6258]

??????????????????????????????­???????????

[Krotchelsteen]

So although the strategy worked twice or so, I'm stuck at getting all 3 piles to 26 and then nothing happens....

[Conkern65]

@Krotchelsteen Are they exceeding 26?

[whatohyoumeanme]

WHERE IN THE HELL CAN I FIND CARDS??? i have some sierra madre cards but the stupid roving traders never have them anymore.... and ive searched every dead prospecters body killed all the prospecters i can find but i still dont have good cards!!!

[AliJustRocks]

@whatohyoumeanme

U helped goodsprings by killing the powder gangers?

Then that guy ringo that needed to be helped should have a pack of cards for you if you ask him about caravan.

[Darkprisoner666]

I know how to get to level 30 without Haveing to wait so long just to earn it,,, it only took me 10 minutes,,,

[HelpMyNamesTaken]

I always win, despite not going how the hell the play it.

[MrSmittiy]

Thank you guys so much this helped me get know when to fold em, and caravan master!!!

[ClumsySandbocks]

Also, Ringo is the easiest player to beat in the game, so don't kill him in Goodsprings.

[ElectroHaiso]

Im just gonna stick to robing the Ultra-Luke at Black Jack.

[Lifeless9619]

@ElectroHaiso lol i just got kicked out of all 3 cassinos last night, 10 luck + slots = Grand larsony

[whatohyoumeanme]

@Lifeless9619 yeah i did that.... walked onto the strip... walked out 3 hours later banned from all the casinos and 76000 bottle caps richer =) the friggen ultra luxe sucks though.... there is no slot machines.... so had to play blackjack

[Lifeless9619]

@whatohyoumeanme i know, it was soo annoying, but with 10 luck all you really have to do is double down every time and it always ends in your favor.

[jake7x7]

Yeh the Keep putting there Gay ass card on top of mine , IM GONNA STICK THIS PS3 CONTROLLER UP MY ASS , FUUUUUUCK !!!!!!!!

[YourFriendlyTroll]

@jake7x7 I had the same problem, try playing against the guy in the Dino gift shop in Novac, or play against Lacey at Mojave Outpost.

[shotun123]

i had no idea what i had to do thx!

[TheInsaneShaner]

This is retarded every time I throw a card down he just robs it with a jack all the time

[TheBettneyBomb]

The enemy has started using cards against you now like kings, queens and jacks so this method is now redundant

[Twitchyzip]

@TheBettneyBomb Yeah, what the shit is this? It's like they've designed it so that the AI cheats so they can cover the massive flaw in the design of the game.

[LordFrostcraig]

I bet all my caps (save before) then play and usually end up 10k caps richer.

[Splop10]

Thanks guys! I managed to get the achievement for winning 3 hands today!

[halomast799]

im playing Caravan! *plays slot machines*

[baileytallain12345]

like if you are the 323,323rd viewer?

[BoilerAlert]

THANK YOU GOD FOR ROOSTER TEETH AND ACHEIVEMENT HUNTER!

You guys hav a video that i can actually pay attention to, rather then me reading boring instructions i just pretend to understand!

[spartan1021]

FUCK CARAVAAAAAN

[MrCowgirl343]

Ok, Great, but i have a problem... On mine when i challenge johnson nash in Vikki and Vance casino in Primm, if i put a card down that is 6 or higher first, he puts a jack on it and removes it... I tried to last awhile and I could swear he has like 15 jacks. What a dick.

[rhodeschild]

@MrCowgirl343 he's one of the hardest to play in caravan. try ringo or chet, they suck at it.

[MrCowgirl343]

@rhodeschild yeah i finally beat him, i just put all my cards into my deck and kept him low or overboard while mine where around 19, he ran out of cards lol.

[Panther00700]

@rhodeschild I think I killed them both... >.> they wouldn't coopperate...

[muiebozgorilor]

lol... I posted before watching the video... so it's kinda the same idea.

[muiebozgorilor]

i use 10s 9s and 7s, i use only 30 cards ( minimum )..

i keep kings, queens and knaves in case i need to fuck up the other guys rows.

any card lower than 5 is useless, just pick 2 of each card and all of 10,9 and 7 fill it up to 30 with whatever cards you want.

[Mist3rLemon]

Lol @ all of you. Pros randomize deck like a boss. It takes a couple games to get used to

[FUNNYCRAPFROMHELL798]

I still prefer the slots...

[ASCAB]

I've read the holotape instructions twice, I've seen this video twice. Is still don't get this game and tried this method but it doesn't work.

[drakomemories]

for the first time i finnally understand how to play this...!!!!!

[Severepwner]

All you guys are out of fucking luck. Those piece of shit bitches over at Bethseda or Obsidion or whatever faggots made the game made some stupid piece of shit patch, because they don't want people to like their game. Everytime I play, this fucking asshole puts down a jack on my cards and ruins my caravan. I have no fucking counter, and neither the top comment or the video are working. It's fucking pissing me off!

[LucasimoTheGreat]

@Severepwner makes the game more difficult. It was way too easy at first. Its like any other card game now. The other person isn't an idiot. I for one enjoy the difficulty of it now.

[Severepwner]

@LucasimoTheGreat Why would i want a challenge? I just want to make my achievement, money, or challenge off this boring ass card game. And I don't need some nigger from Primm using a Jack on my cards, like he's a nube tuber from Modern Warfare. I guess you enjoy losing money, but I fucking don't.

[LucasimoTheGreat]

@Severepwner Well so you expect an achievement to be easy. Then why don't you give yourself an achievement for taking a shit? And I bet you use Jack or any face cards. Besides your fault for waiting 9 months to get the achievement. (Oh and I never lose money off the game because I'm able to comprehend it)

[22222222george]

why couldn't it just have been blackjack or roulette or 5-card poker, or Legion Lottery?

[XcGJamesFFXIII]

oh god finally i understand how to play this game

[tact5432]

I finally understand caravan now, many thanks to the people on this video and @ roosterteeth!

[Van12321]

can someone please tell me why im not winning i am playing a game of caravan right now and i have 26 in all columns and im not winning instead it just keep letting me discard cards or add cards why cant i just win?

[22222222george]

@Van12321 at least for me the recent patch has made caravan completely stop working for my pc version from steam

[mjp921]

that's a lot of work for 58caps

[95GamerChick]

so the cards with the face (like the side that shows if it is ace, spades 10's queens and that) is facing downward?

[Jesus4Soccer]

put a little boogie in it

[ChurroDoughnut]

Most confusing game ever

[Stavros175ish]

This was very helpful, thanks a lot guys. Wish you wrote the in game manual for that part.

[IamJacksColon4]

worst card game invented for a game. best pazak in kotor.

[crackthecorn]

@IamJacksColon4 you haven't plays that coin game from ffX-2 (part 2 ) that game was horrible

[IamJacksColon4]

@crackthecorn

i played it and it was ok/good, you had to chain the matches to win.

[crackthecorn]

@IamJacksColon4 well it was just another adding game but less clear

[TheMrbillsmith]

Wow, Achievement Hunter explains this so well. It'll be on IGN, don't worry.

[AtomicFreerun]

what a stupid card game.. i keep losing, i always get 26-26.. and something else, and every opponent has like 28-20-12... most confusing game there is.

[chamberslong]

It's looks more like a ghetto version of solitaire

[skip2mylizzle]

@chamberslong How does it look anything like a game you pay by yourself?

[Deverdelger]

Hhhmm, after reading "Jack and Geoff do their best to explain the game Caravan in Fallout: New Vegas. Seriously, they do their best." I was expecting chaos, but u explained it very well in my opinion :D Thanxs. Really weird game :/, I've read up on all the rules in game and it just didn't work.

[nroland99]

i killed isacc for shits and giggles...

[ItzOppisiteDay]

@nroland99 Don't we all, *Sigh*.

[nroland99]

@ItzOppisiteDay i was accualy testing the palidin-toaster , to see if it could kill more then power-armor AI

[MJ1284]

Here's short explanation on Caravan:

Objective is to get 3 piles close 26 as possible. Cards from 2-10 adds points according to their value, Ace is always 1 point. You have to place cards in ascending/descending order.

Jack = removes card

Queen = Reverses ascend/descend order

King = doubles card value

Joker = removes every card of same value, except the card it's lying on.

You can use Jack, Queen, King and Joker on enemy cards too.

That's all you need to know.

[thissucks58]

i watched a few other caravan tutorials and i still didnt understand it untill i watched yours, the other ones didnt even tell how to win, this is by far the best one ive ever seen.

[Didadragonfly]

OMG!  I think I can actually play this now with your help! Thank you SOOO much!!

[BriTheMerc]

I gave up halfway through the video.

[EliteLennon117]

When I first played Caravan I was like "How the fuck do you play this game" , because I skipped through the explination.(spelling on last word?)

[SergeantBalzak]

thx!



[Separikakku]

its easier if you get only 6s, 8s, 10s and Kings, and start by putting 10s then you double them and put 6s. insta win unless it bugs

[supersayin555]

@TheUltimateTemplar did you think of checking the oponents pile thats prolly why

[PortgasDAceFTW]

For me, Caravan is just a nice money maker in Fallout: New Vegas, very easy to win even against some harder players. No-Bark in Novac bets quite a bit most of the time, so yea.

[TheFireyes]

explanation=no strategy=yes

[TheUltimateTemplar]

WTF I had all rows with 26 and nothing happens

[parkerlewiscl]

Most ridiculous in-game card game ever thought of.

[Stiglitz51]

I've had this game since the day it came out.... And I still haven't played Caravan yet.

[elpelon501]

i cant take caravan sereosly since i downloaded the porn card mod

[NxWreknagexN]

on the bright side caravan is one of the only things in the game thats "NOT" bugged

[2quimby]

i hate caravan its stupid and hard to understand and no idiots im not stupid

[itachi543211]

*Puts gun to head* I DONT UNDERSTAND!!!!!

[HidForHG]

THIS is the best way to understand Caravan I've ever seen.

[Jrhoney]

I've had New Vegas for a few weeks and I have yet to even see the Caravan screen. That is how little I care about it.

[Halfway3]

*tries to figure out caravan* 5 minutes later... *shoots self*

[EbonOcelot]

well holy shit, I just learned how to play caravan. THANK YOU JACK AND GEOFF.

[odhrilvith]

THANK YOU i was stuck when i heard ringo go over the rules let alone the achievment

[randomname171]

One word: What?

Thumbs this up so people can see a very easy method for doing it.

Ok, this way works but I found my own way which just owns. Fill up your deck with 10s, 6s and kings. Fill up the rest with crap you're not going to use. Pl
