I've just upgraded and so far no issues for me, not that I've been anywhere much. Lucky my last save was indoors, though I had to camp out in Underworld for 4 whole days :rolleyes:
My companion and I started with the rooms off Underworld for practise and to give me an idea of what to expect regarding ghouls. They weren't so bad, actually. If they weren't goopified (by my companion) they died from headshots by me. Some died whole and I wondered when they'd rise again. They didn't while we were there. Is it normal for the Glowing Ghouls to explode after death? I also use HDR so their bits and pieces glowed fairly brightly.
This version of MMM is what I know from Oblivion. Completely crazy! In a good way, of course. I haven't been game to try and enter Fairfax Ruins yet, as last time (and last version) I just couldn't without a CTD, no matter which direction I approached from. I'm sure it has to be the raiders as the only other thing I have there is a house mod and to get to it I had to disable MMM completely. Then I could come and go as I pleased :shrug:
I thought I'd leave the safety of Megaton to take a stroll to Tenpenny Tower, to finish a quest. Not such a great idea! Whoever did the textures on those red Deathclaws did a great job! They remind me of something straight out of hell and make those vanilla Deathclaws look unscary and boring.
Between Megaton and Tenpenny Tower I met 3 Deathclaw Young, 1 normal Deathclaw, and 3 red ones (I never caught their names). I knocked off one red one while hiding, one young one seemed to be more curious than angry so was easy to kill and the others I ignored by slipping into sneak mode (thanks to the Chinese Stealth Suit) and running away.
Apologies for the pointer (and HUD), but in this case stuffed VATS has it's one upside. I can take a screenshot before the percentages come up

Unfortunately I have not previously been to the Deathclaw Sanctuary, so no doubt will be in for a nasty surprise. I can imagine this mod putting some Deathclaw King in there somewhere, or a lively nest of babies ewith over-protective mothers :cold:
I'm Level 20-odd, maxed in almost everything but a furious Deathclaw or several can certainly kill me in a couple of swipes. Unlike Oblivion I am no longer the center of the universe and invincible. I don't know whether to be annoyed or glad
Anyway, having lots of fun and I shall now dive back into it
