There's a mod for more reactive ragdolls. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/59147

Something unrealistic in a game where practically everything isn't realistic. Besides the poop engine.

Such a silly thing to break your "immersion". Games don't need to be realistic either unless the genre demands it.

Surely you're not blaming game's wonky physics on gamebryo engine itself, are you? It's a matter of developers who weren't competent enough to utilize the physic function.

Why would that be silly? I've just stated their unrealisticness as a fact, what breaks my immersion is their stiffness, as the kills are often not satisfying enough. I feel like killing people made of wood.

Yeah, I know, but I really can't get over its ragdoll physics.

Seems like just another thing they stripped out for performance reasons because the game's dev time was so short. They didn't have time to tweak the values so they just turned some of them off. And then they weren't allowed to release later patches or whatever it was, and here we are.

New Vegas wasn't made with the concern of making it as a satisfying shooter game like you demand it to be. The gunplay in this game is absolutely pathetic and clunky.

If you want satisfying kills, play the three classic Fallouts.

That's the issue, as it's clearly meant to be somewhat realistic, especially in regards to combat.

game was limited by the hardware of 20 year old consoles, so 1 cpu core and 256mb of memory so having advance physics was not really going to be possible

necro'ing four year old threads like this will make you unpopular with the forum moderator

Other games like Grand Theft Auto IV (2008) and Half-Life 2 (2004) have way better ragdoll physics than Fallout: New Vegas (2010), and were part of the same gaming era and console generation, and of course released on the same consoles (the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3). Even non-AAA games released before or at the same time had better ragdoll physics. So it was indeed possible.

It's my thread, and I was going to have it deleted anyway.
