I will not be satisfied until every game is as much of a pain in the rear end to play as DayZ

I got a gauss rifle that does double damage to targets at full health. Combine with my 5.3x sneak multiplier and it's :catstare:

Unfortunately, I got it about 85% of the way through my playthrough.

I still don't get the hate for survival mode, but whatever. I never really found things to be very bullet spongy except in a few very rare instances (unfortunately, the deathclaw at the start is one of them) and the lack of quick healing is very nice imo.

I am playing with a 360 controller, too.

VATS was surprisingly good for when you've got one of those awesome unique melee weapons, you snuck into a room and immediately went VATS mode after it loaded.

They haven't detected you yet if you are quick enough, so you select everyone in the room and get massive criticals, most likely instant death from a big string of a sneak attacks.

Basically like Enter the Dragon but with more machete and flying limbs.

I'm doing this right now, but with the blitz perk and the unique bat you can buy in diamond city that uses 40% less action points. Once I get a few points into luck crit perks its gonna be hilarious

Melee VATS sneak attack stuff is hilariously broken once you get blitz 2 and ninja. You can run around ghosting entire rooms.

once you realize that a 'pretty' or 'walled to hold off invaders' settlement means absolutely nothing, you get over the building and just stick beds in lovely shacks and give no fucks

was I supposed to build stuff? 'cause when the Sanctuary bitches needed beds I was like "here, there's some stained mattresses over in that blown out house"

8g ram, 3.8 i7, 970 in sli, 1000w power supply, win 10. No mods and have no idea what falloutconfigtool is but will Google it when I get home. GPUs are not running hot. I'm baffled.

I wish you could opt to not be in charge. When preston gives the lead to you, decline and have him in charge of building poo poo and you just give him materials and he does the dumb stuff.

The settlement stuff is completely optional. I find it really fun but completely unnecessary. Can't wait for mods for it.

The only time it's not optional is for the main quest but I just consoled the materials because seriously?

So you want the video that was cut from the old SA Second Life Safari articles. Except I think it was nuclear cock MIRV's.

can you not repair guns/armor anymore and/or combine a whole bunch of junk guns/armor so you can loot more stuff?

God, I'm so tired. What the hell did I post last night?
Nope, guns don't degrade anymore. You CAN tear down spare guns into scrap parts if you run into a weapons workbench and likewise with armor, which usually reduces weight, but after a while you're going to have more than enough of the parts those turn into. THOUGH, you can get perks that get you better poo poo from junk guns when you tear them down.

EDIT: Yeah, power armor needs repairs, but that's it, and you can't repair it in the field.

Yeah and it's bullshit because it always takes the same amount of poo poo to repair it, even if all you did was get shat on by a stingwing.
