guys the gunplay in this game is so bad i cant believe i ever considered this game passable

[็]

im bored and want to rant so im gonna say im not sure if this game is a good recommendation to those who havnt played it, the writing will always be good but THATS LIKE LITERALLY THE ONLY THING THATS GOOD

its quite sad, but when does anything good happen anyway. this is the fallout franchise and you either have a fair shooter with garbage writing or barely acceptable shooter with good writing

would you really recommend this to someone at this point? i want to say no

It’s an rpg, raise your gun skill if you want to hit anything. Not every game needs to be able to have 1000m quicks opes and tactical reloads with animations that look like your character has Parkinson’s.

Fallout 4’s “gunplay” completely ♥♥♥♥♥ over how the game works, which is why they went to the retarded perk system they have now in an attempt to balance it(it didn’t work).

i will admit i have fast shot, but trying to snipe a nightstalker and watching a blood stain appear on it 5 times with 0 damage dealt is INSANE

speaking of accuracy and what not, idk i know its an rpg and stuff but GOD what are sights even for if they dont mean where your bullets will go? like oh ♥♥♥♥ the 10mm smg IS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ WILD LIKE A 30 DEGREE CONE AT 20M it makes you wonder what a gun even is sometimes

Are you using m&k or controller?

Seriously, changing to m&k helps. Playing this game with a controller is complete ass.

60% of people who originally came from non-rpg titles so a little bit clueless about how RPG function.

And that is Okay.

If your gun's in low condition, damage quickly drops to virtually nothing, and without the appropriate weaponskill, you only ever get a percentage of the maximum damage.

I exclusively use controller, and its great. Idk what you are talking about. Fallout 4/76 is iffy cause of some mouse acceleration stuff, on both their launches but, that was also addressed in a post launch update at some point. Starfield was the first game from bethseda that actually knocked it out of the park on release for controller support in a long long time

This game is 14 years old. Released in 2010 dude. Cut it some slack. Jesus. Deus Ex has terrible gunplay too, because it technically isn't a shooter, just like this isn't technically a shooter, and the gunplay in NV is 100% better than in Fallout 3, and 200% better than Deus Ex. Go back to that ♥♥♥♥ and try and play it. Good luck.

As a caveat, why not try playing the game entirely with VATS and get the real Fallout 1 & 2 experience? Or better yet, try maxing out a luck build and go gamble for all your cap needs. This game is a playground to try stuff. If you take some time and gain a little game knowledge, it becomes much more fun.

Tag guns, energy weapons, or explosives, dump your first 6 levels to max out a weapon skill to 100 (takes literally a couple hours following just the main quest to NV while completing a few side-quests as you go along) and relax while picking off targets at a distance. I go through the majority of the game ADS unless I'm being attacked by multiple targets at once. You can literally grab the AMR from Gun Runners and smash through Deathclaws all day from such a distance crouched that they'll never spot you ever. They literally pop-in while the LOD is still at a low-res quality.

No, I wouldn't recommend the game. It's a niche genre game, slow-paced, and the content is almost nowhere to be seen unless you really sink your teeth into the game and let yourself marinate in the world instead of just running around looking for excitement.

Plus it's broken and needs to be modded just to be playable. Even for 2010 it was barely passable at the time, but scraped by on some decent writing and lots of player freedom in character customization.

I also hate the gunplay. I use a PS4 controller and had to use a mod settings tweak to increase joystick sensitivity really high just so my crosshairs don't fly right over an enemy I'm trying to aim at when I slightly nudge a stick in any direction. Cause default sensitivity doesn't detect slight inputs. At least there's VATS available in most cases.
