What do you fine gamers think all criticisms will be helpful and any tip off's on hidden stuff would prove valuable.

We think You need reasons to explain 2 and 4 of dislikes.

My only real dislike of hardcoe Mode is Ammunition has wieght. I can not have 1000 Max Charge MFC Cells for the Holorifle or YCS/186, and an equal amount of .45 Super Hand Loads to use in ALSID.

Likes:

1. Yes to all.

Dislikes:

1. Holding LB / R1 will fix your character's view direction and allow you to zoom out a bit, if that helps any.

2. Fair play. I don't much like it either, with my limited experience in it. Good thing it's not mandatory!

3. I recruited her a grand total of once and that was just for an achievement, so... Can't comment.

4. I preferred the smaller stories to the actual "storyline", to be honest. Boone's story in particular.

As for tips... Gun Runner's Arsenal and Old World Blues are two rather good pieces of DLC if you don't already have them. Explore ALL the places! I got quite a pleasant (relatively pleasant...) surprise when I happened upon the old nuclear testing site. Don't be afraid to try out different character builds (stealth-based, combat-based, diplomats, sadists, etc). Oh, and the Wild Wasteland perk is always worth a punt.

Agree with your likes. If you like the riot shotgun, be sure to take the two shotgun perks,

hardcoe mode: I can't play without it anymore. It's not really that much harder, as Bradleyh said above the biggest difference is that ammo has weight.

And companions can die, so you have to plan ahead more carefully.

Veronica is OK, although I like ED-E and Raul better. Some of my characters travel with Veronica extensively, others have completely ignored her.

What do you dislike about the storyline?

I prefer fallout 3's storyline fallout new vegas feels like a wild goose chase it's boring going to nipton to novac to boulder city and so on the only good bit was the battle of hoover dam
