Been playing FO:NV for a few days now, and even though there are bugs and glitches, it hasn't stopped me enjoying the game.

Got one slight annoyance though;

Is it me, or do big level animals and insects come in WAY too early? Reading the book suggests that a Golden Gecko, for example, doesn't come in till Level 12. I had one at Level 2, and got slaughtered. To make matters worse, I had SIX of them on me at once. Ouch. The book even says the bigger Radscorpions should be later levels... is anyone else getting this problem? Apart from running shooting, running shooting, taking them out is quite hard at that level. Even switched to VERY EASY, which had NO effect on it whatsoever. In fact, I get the impression the difficulty system has been messed up a bit. :flamethrower:

The game isnt scaling NPC's to your levels as in FO3, in this game there are certain high level zones and lower level zones. You just wandered in to a zone where you werent supposed to be yet. Look out for signs that say KEEP OUT etc and listen close to what friendly NPC's say. They actually warn you in the earlier stage of the game to not go to some places.

EDIT: MPC60 beat me to it.

Oh thanks. I wondered what some of those signs said, never got close to them to see. So the level scaling in the book tells us what level THEY are, as opposed to the level they come in. I get it now, cheers.

Only by a few seconds though :jammasterjay:

Ya, I only found that out when I saw a blind deathclaw charge at me when level 6.
