Melee question...

Post » Fri Dec 04, 2015 4:12 pm

Been using a machete a lot of late and notice on Ghouls dismemberment is totally random, I can aim at the head and an arm falls off. Anyone else notice there really isn't a call shot system. If I'm hitting a leg I expect a leg to fall off not the head lol...

Not using VATS of course as it's for girls...

Lol and just like that, the conversation went to [censored].

On topic:

I'm not entirely certain it's random, it could just be wonky hit registration or the spot our weapon is supposed to hit not being where we expect it to be. Vats for melee is also quite awful. Why can't we aim for body parts in VATS? What's the point of using VATS with melee besides using it for crits?

I think it's random. But why no VATS melee? VATS increases melee' potential exponentially by like 10x. Without VATS it is pretty bad and well behind ANY gun's DPS due to the poor real-time melee combat implementation. After a few hours I couldn't take any more of it: Slow swing speeds, no crits, animation reset if (even jabbed by a no damage level 1 raider punch), 100% blocked attacks (even by a level 1 raider fists), and absurdly heavy staggers. Some high level enemies (who can 1 shot you even in PA) even if you block their attacks and make them stagger instantly are blocking again and can NOT be hit outside of VATS.

I guess you can make it work with Pain Train to prevent stagger/block locks, but still I wish they designed real-time better. I can't wait for mods.

It's just a manner of speech and usually in jest, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYpx2KkDzSg

Don't be a twit. When it comes to deciding whether to use VATS or not, sixual dimorphism is irrelevant. Calling someone a girl for choosing to use it is also a sign of being a twit and possibly a bully. Neither one is a good thing.
