"Where our brightest and best were put to the test and died so Cochise might die too." His name was Jessie Faden, codename Cold-Eye. He stayed behind so that Vargas could escape with the rest. In my game, he died so that our general and the rest of Team Echo, along with the surviving rangers and their allies could remain and 'persevere.' Rest in peace, Cold-Eye. You were born a man, but you died a Desert Ranger.
@@Hitoshuratdn It wasn't actually, I played Wasteland 2 before Control and used the auto-generated names and codenames for the first squad I made. Looking back though, it is kinda ironic. This Jessie was a guy though.
First time I heard it at the very beggining. The guy was singing solo, and I was like "Huh, nice one". I did not know about singing team members when clicking on this guy once again after Aspen massacre, where we did disobey Patriarch for the first time killing Vic. And just so happens that I've got all three with me - Jodie, Pizepi & Scotchmo. When they began to sing after returning from that hell of a place where we did the right thing by slaughtering everything that moved (except for the hostages - all of whom we saved)... that was amazing. Touching even. Concidering the context and timing it really felt like the song came from their hearts. That was the point when I realized which course we'll take - before that I was order-following guy siding with Buchanan. But that moment was the first step to my "November Reigns" achievement. Because yeah, we do give a s**t. :)
@@KalendirBy killing Victory Buchanan you’ve angered the Patriarch which will most definitely make him less susceptible to aid the Rangers with food. You’ve disobeyed a direct order from General Wade Woodson. I hereby revoke your Ranger star for insubordination. Traitor
If you wear good headphones and turn the volume way up, at the very end you can hear someone clicking a button (presumably to stop recording) and someone saying in the background "awesome!"

There's a version of Scotchmo singing along if you take him to the Busker. That's much less serious and much more hilarious, so I do recommend taking the old bum only if you want to dry your tears from Jodie's version and then shed new ones laughing at Scotchmo. What makes it even funnier somehow is that he's convinced you're the original Team Echo he ran with in Wasteland 2 and even if you tell him no straight to his face, he sticks to it.
Let the Hoons die, take the Gippers god, let the Hardheads live, butchering the Monsters Army, etc..... probably the worst was working with the slaver. My rational was we need more firepower and one life for the hundreds having a bigger gun would save. Basically any choice that either benefited Colorado as a whole or gave us an edge over our enemies. And in the end I feel I mostly picked right except for the slaver, the loot wasn’t really worth it.
ShadowofHawk55 1 I wouldn’t feel too bad about taking the Reagan AI from the Gippers, they were a bunch of assholes and crazy cultists, and most of the other ways to resolve that situation involves killing them so I think you did the right thing there.

The files say its called buskers song(ranger ballad) bell scothmo and i think her name is pavie all sing it but scothmo kinda ruins it and the song in the files has all of them singing it
You know what would be super nice? If the wasteland games could like detect the save from older games like wasteland 2 and create a different playthrough based on it You could like have some LORE connection to other Rangers of crouse it could be chosen by the player
As someone who played the 1 and 2, this song immortalized Snake, echo and all the rangers we lost along the way. Rangers wont stop fighting.

Is that a Control reference?

Hearing Jodi singing along after the ice field massacre was really touching.

Scotchmo will attempt to sing along too if you have him with you
Emphasis on attempt
made me laugh so hard when scothmo was slurring
If you listen closely he actually says some of the lines before the singer, he knows the lines but the squeezins got him haha
The female ranger you save in the beginning will get mad at him at one point saying "Those arent the words!" I didn't know she would do that and started laughing
@@orion3740 Pizepi will also sing a'long so you can get a whole Barbershop Quartet going
Basically the whole story of the wasteland rangers since wasteland 1 in one song!
LYRICS
The Old Desert Rangers
When the world expired
we were forged in the fire
A shield made of muscle and grit
Protecting the needy
and fighting the greedy
We fought because we gave a shit
And we'll keep on fighting
For there's wrongs to be rightened
And our victories grow year by year
'Cause despite all the dangers
The old Desert Rangers
Well the world knows the Rangers persevere
It started in Vegas
When Brago did beg us
To save him from killer machines
The trail led us then
To the guardian's den
Where nightmares were made from old dreams
In Darwin disaster
the old mutant master
Irwin John Finster esquire
Where we fought our way through
His mind and his zoo
Until Irwin John Finster expired
And finally Cochise
That old devil Cochise
Told us that man's time was done
But though he tried to destroy us
We were somehow victorious
And we blew him to sweet kingdom come
And we'll keep on fighting
For there's wrongs to be rightened
And our victories grow year by year
'Cause despite all the dangers
The old Desert Rangers
Well the world knows that we persevere
It started again
With a voice on the wind
And a plague of synthetic men
Who lurked in the shadows
And guided our worst foes
With schemes to hasten our end
The clues led away to L.A.,CA
In a cult of post-human peace
But it was only a rule
Their brains stolen for use
In an army of synths for Cochise
Our old foe returned
Well he had to be burned
So we raced back to Ranger HQ
Where our brightest and best
Were put to the test
And died so Cochise might die too
And we'll keep on fighting
For there's wrongs to be rightened
And our victories grow year by year
'Cause despite all the dangers
The old Desert Rangers
Well the world knows that we persevere
Yes the Rangers abide!
We fight side by side!
Through darkness and chaos and fear
From the dawn of Year Zero
The world needed heroes
So the Rangers must still persevere
It's "Wrongs to be rightened" not "Wrongs to be writing".
@@TrasherBiner Thanks! updated!
@@jphidalgo also it's "Brygo did beg us"
@@jphidalgo updated what? You haven't really updated it and it's been 4 months....
@@TrasherBiner apparently RUclips gave me a "Returned error" message when I thought I updated my message. Now I cannot update it and I don't know why.
I just listened to the one in-game, and I do believe this is all of it. Thanks for the upload.

Really wish someone would make an edit with
A: instruments
B: shorter pauses
Can’t stop listening to this song it’s like an addiction now xD
Lol just found this dude in game singing the whole song, goes hard.
I need the chords to this asap lol I wanna play a guitar back to it
Long Live the Desert Rangers.
Who else gets chills and wants to right some wrongs?
I do believe the police is hiring
@@cypher4783 -grabs my 20 guage- lets go !
The best thing is that if you haven't played the other wasteland games (like I have) this Is a great way to quickly catch up
god i love obsidian and inixile studios
I can’t stop listening to this song in game. And everyone I wince because my squad has done serious bad in the hope of doing good by Colorado.
Whadya do?
Let the Hoons die, take the Gippers god, let the Hardheads live, butchering the Monsters Army, etc..... probably the worst was working with the slaver. My rational was we need more firepower and one life for the hundreds having a bigger gun would save.

@@bigbadbob7070 They're still human. Granted, humans in my way but still humans. Minimizing bloodshed was the best option.
ShadowofHawk55 1 And McCarthy was also human, and him and the Gippers would get along just fine. But yes, it was for the best that the bloodletting was kept to a minimal since now they can live and keep providing oil to Colorado Springs.
love this game but i do hope they release some music accompaniment with the Busker
The annoying part is he air plays a guitar if watch him real close
The files say its called buskers song(ranger ballad) bell scothmo and i think her name is pavie all sing it but scothmo kinda ruins it and the song in the files has all of them singing it
almost, it's Pizepi
You know what would be super nice?
If the wasteland games could like detect the save from older games like wasteland 2 and create a different playthrough based on it You could like have some LORE connection to other Rangers of crouse it could be chosen by the player
That would be dope. So fucking dope.
They could be trainers helping your new rangers by teaching them stuff
How do you get them to sing along? Is it only the pre-made characters?
Would you be willing to take one for the team and test each premade starting characters
Jodie Bell sings along, if you bring her there.
@@Zlopyy it's only certain companions that you pick up.
@@Foxhound94 Scotcho, Jodie and I believe one other.
Lol there is a 3 character that sings along
Even with the little feeling that the rhythm is a little off and the overuse of some words, this top ten "street improvised in-universe ingame songs"
this only gets good when you do. at that part the game becomes a playgrund spent 600 hours had to stop before i find everthing.
Can someone make a version of this without awkward pauses. It sounds like they forget text.
