I have played Fallout 3. I am new to Fallout: New Vegas. Something have changed, most in a good way.

What I have found while playing in Non-hardcode mode is that the food I eat does not increase my HPs. I seem to get the other benifits but not HPs. Does it heal slowly over time and I am just not seeing the change?

I see HP increase in hardcoe mode when I eat food.

Does anyone else have this same experience?

Thanks!

In NV food always heals overtime.

I use food all the time to heal in normal mode.
