New Vegas Strip

The  is the area of New Vegas where some of the largest hotels, casinos and resort properties in the world, were located before the Great War. It is in control of Mr. House, the owner of New Vegas. The Caesar's Legion are trying to take over the area. It is modeled after the real world 60's strip, when buildings such as the casinos are spaced out.

Gaining Entrance
Unfortunately for the player, access isn't admitted without a credit check; the PC must have 2000 bottlecaps on their person, or have a certain type of passport to enter. (You can also buy a fake passport) Thankfully they don't actually take your money. With a Science skill of 80, you can also hack the computers for the securitrons to gain access as well. Alternatively, with a high enough speech check, the player can go to Mick & Ralph's, speak to Ralph, and gain a counterfeit passport for 500 caps or 375 caps after Bartering. Alternatively, you can enter the Strip through the monorail located in the Camp McCarran terminal; in order to gain entrance to the monorail terminal itself, disguising yourself as an NCR trooper is recommended as the two guards are under orders to not allow civilians through. It is also possible to just kill the securitron guards and take the gate key off the corpse.

Layout
There is an entrance where you go to get in the strip. To the east is Vault 21 and the Ultra-Luxe, at the west is the Lucky 38, LVB Station and the Gomorrah. North is the Tops. There are tons of people walking around, most are drunk including some NCR, some soldiers can be observed dancing naked in the fountains or throwing up in a corner.

Known Bugs
It is possible to become locked out of The Strip's main gate. The prerequisite actions may be taken, but the door will remain locked, requiring a key the player can only get from killing the Securitrons outside the gate. Entering in the Strip from the monorail seem to unlock it. Also sometimes you may receive freezing after entering the strip.

Best way to receive a key so you will no longer be locked out by the bug is to get a good distance away with a stealth boy and snipe one of the guards. Loot the key and you have access.

There is also a bug in which the strip remains completely empty. There are only a few soldiers walking around. Unsure whether this is a bug for all three consoles, but it has been seen on the xbox 360 version.

To repair the glitch of the Strip freezing when you enter, go to Blake at the Crimson Caravan Company and purchase the "Old Cowboy Hat" (also sold in shops such as Mick and Ralph's in Freeside if they don't have one in stock). Wear this when entering and leaving the Strip to avoid the glitch. If you have this glitch, avoid saving your game whilst within the Strip, as saves and autosaves in the Strip will crash.
