I love this game, but just like every game on the engine, it takes a year to kill anything, even with absurdly overpowered weapons.

I've got a standard NCR trooper and an Assault Rifle. I was consistently getting headshots. It took 5 shots to get his head crippled, and I ended up running out of ammo and finishing him off with a power fist.

NV is supposed to be harder, but this is just unrealistic. I should be able to get a headshot with something like an assault rifle that instantly kills a normal human without a helmet.

Level up your gun skills.

Odds are the thing your shooting at has a forget ton of armor, natural armor, or you suck that bad.

The whole entire damage system in Fallout 3 and New Vegas sucks richard, if you're playing on PC you can get mods to fix it. If you're on console just play on easy and try to live with it.

Play on "Very Easy"
He might have a helmet on.

I'm not sure but I heard VATS decreases damage, so just be a pro and run-and-gun
Use a sniper. My sniper 1-hit headshot kills almost everything.

I have a bullet weapon that does 175 damage a piece, it's a sniper though so like 50 DPS
my main weapons (laser RCW) does 180 a sec which is awesome

And I'm invincible due to Remnants armour.

I have a gauss rifle that does 120 damage a piece, and makes enemies explode when they die, which can then make nearby enemies explode as well.
My main weapon is a gatling laser with a carbon fiber frame making it only around 8 pounds, and it does around 241 dps.

it's spelled differently in other places bro
it's like color and colour.

Also Gatling Laser can be kinda inefficient against high armoured people.

that's when I break out the ballistic fist

lolunarmed.

Ninja: Wait is ballistic fist that exploding fist the Legion uses?

If it is that's not so bad.

HEY THAT'S WHAT I USE BITCH. D:


I have several questions.

1. Is Harold in this one? Just say yes or no, don't spoil it if he is.
2. Are there schematics in this one? More or less than Fallout 3?
3. Are there any new creatures?

Also I carved a pipboy pumpkin.

Ok, so there is something really weird happening. Whenever I am just walking around I get like 80 fps, but when characters are moving their faces, I get 22 or so fps. Is there a way to fix this?

Nevermind, found a fix.
