How do you deal with spotlights in enimy bases?

Iv'e played a lot of Fallout 3 and NV. But in my first infiltration at the Corvaga plant I fell under atack b pretty much the whole gang.


A new feture that this game has and diddn't think to tell me about was the fact that spotlights can track your movements and sound alarms.



How do you deal with them?



Also I should mention that although I value the stelth aproch I am not very good at it without a high stelth skill or the Chinise Stelth Suit.

Shoot 'em. Sometimes you can hack them to turn them off, but I usually just give them a bullet.

Shoot 'em. Or, you can turn them off at a local terminal. :)

I shoot them, mostly because I hate the sound they make.

So does shooting them with a suppressed weapon. They react to the sound of the light being hit as opposed to the report of the weapon.



When you shoot them do it from far enough away that they don't actively start looking for you. Then move in when they go back to doing whatever they were doing.

I mostly just ignore them, but occasionally shoot them.

I rarely get an alert for shooting a spotlight with a silencer. Unless you do it with someone standing next to it.
