When there are multiple enemies and I enter VATS mode to take out...say, the first 2...it goes into slo motion to do so. While I'm in slo mo the other enemies are still fighting me and I can't do anything until the slo mo stops. Anyway to turn that effect off or not? just wondering, not really that big of a deal.

Not that I know of, though there might be a mod for it if you're on the PC. This is just one of the disadvantages of VATS, though its not really a disadvantage because you get a massive boost to your damage resistance which effectively makes VATS a near god mode...in Fallout 3 at least.

stop playing

Don't use VATS. Or use VATS for two or less only.

umm...no

Then deal with the slow mo.

Or just don't use VATS.....

But no OP, there's isn't any way to stop slo-mo in vats. However, don't worry about getting hit in it, you won't take damage.

I believe you still take 10% damage.

I have died in VATS mode so it's not a full god mode

Yes there is a bit of a bleed-through, but as long as you aren't at the cusp of dying its basically negligible.

Unless you are using the MIRV or something like that.
