Enchanted clothing. I hate that. I don't mind items and devices that boost your skills and stats but it has to make sense, like some type of high tech visor that boosts your Perception instead of just a normal hat.

The open ended mini quests (and I use that term loosly) where you bring items to a character in exchange for caps. I don't mind doing that but I don't like that they're open ended, instead of a proper quest that you can complete.

You must have missed the Great Hat Debate of October over in the thread with the Primm Video.

the enclave

The good brotherhood of steel

the metro system

any dark cave/ tunnel/ unlit vault

Ghouls kind of annoyed me. Not so much having to fight them, but the flippity flappity of their feet and the constant gargling got tiresome. However, there has always been an annoying critter in every game, Cliff Racers in Morrowind come to mind.

The physics inside a cell, or at least the home, needs to be toned down for better object placement. And, so things don't get blown all over the room if you bump into a table.

Other than that, anything that was there, plus all the new stuff works for me.

While I agree that they should not be a major faction (or even a minor one) in FO:NV... They were in FO2, and FO2 territory overlaps FO1; so they would have a place there (had they not been utterly destroyed in FO2).
*As it is relics from their occupation of the region would not bother me, and even a few 62 year old veterans in hiding wouldn't be bad.

Increased experience rewards for higher difficulty levels.

I never had this problem in Fallout3 once I got sneak up high enough and I got the Chinese stealth suit. There were a lot of people I wanted to kill in Megaton for being douches, I broke into their houses at night while they were sleeping, went into VATS with the shock-sword, and turned them into a pile of dust. The only negative result was a drop in karma that I remedied with giving the homeless guy in front of Megaton some water.

They got their asses kicked in Fallout 2. "President" is seen as a boogeyman to small children. They have no place there at all.

I hear ya. They should miss a few times. Also if there was clearly a visual obstruction, they shouldn't be able to have such good aim. Like shooting through smoke, bushes, or darkness.

the fact that if I was in stealth and killed a character silently in one blow/shot, 9/10 the entire town or settlement would become hostile to me.

That sometimes the character graphics got rubbish: I would wear a pre-war hat and my character's skull would peek out the back or I would wear colonel autumn's suit and rifles would somehow go through the suit instead of resting on the back. Ruined the immersion for me

This.

all enemies fighting to the death
bland characters
poor options to solve a quest like tenpenny tower and the ghouls
everybody dropping armor after death
everyone having no recognition of your weaponry and armor (thankfully fixed)

Killing someone silently in somewhere like a bathroom and everybody in the whole frickin town knowing about it :banghead:

And if you get detected they run straight at where you are even if they haven't seen you

@ Vexing thoughs.
Raiders ran away all the time. So did others...

I agree about the detection. An NPC should go to your last sighted area, in FO3 they alawys knew exactly whre you were.

I really hope alot of the ridiculous perks don't return:
Off the top of my head:
Almost Perfect - WWWAAAY ridiculous.
Grim Reper Sprint - fun little perk but it made fights insanely easy.
Quantum Chemist (this was a lousy solution to a problem, this should be done through crafting - not a perk)
Animal Friend NEEDS to be waaay lower on the level requirement if it returns, by level 10 and the subsequent levels that are requried to max out animal friend you don't really need it any more. (atleast I thought so)
Karma perks - not bad just silly.
I don't remember what they are all called but several of the radiation releated perks weren't useful or just didn't make sense. (lead belly was great though)

There's others but I just can't remember them.
Like the lockpick one and the hacking one were silly...

I only used the karma perks to fill out my PS3 trophies faster.

I thought the point of animal friend was that since you are higher level you don't have to bother with the low level creatures and some mid-level one's on par with you at the moment.
Basically a perk made for comfort.
If it's lower then it becomes too easy for a new character.

I do think that by rank 2 we should be able to tame an animal. (Would make the perk more useful IMO.)

This.

But sometimes I was able to get away with it undetected, so I don't know exactly how it works in Fallout 3. One time I killed Walter and Stahl (the one that hangs out in the water processing plant). Late at night, I used a stealth boy and killed them while hiding in the back room. I then waited a few days just in case. I went outside expecting to be attacked by the entire town, but nobody seemed to care. If I left immediately after killing them, maybe they would have attacked. I don't know.

Yeah, if you say you waited a few days before coming out then that was probably why.

I actually liked fighting ghouls.
I knew I could whip out my shocksword or shishkebab and go butcher pete on those zombies!
I just hated reavers.........
Damn bullet sponges with their speed and annoyance and such.
The two enemies I found most like the dreaded Cliff Racer were Botflies and Mole Rats.
Mole Rats constantly jump and the Botflies have their stupid useless projectile attack.
I agree with the point about the wacko physics when it comes to moving and placing objects.
It should work right.
I mean that's essentially why the functions exists right?
To move stuff where you want it?
Too many times have I been decorating my house only to have the last minor adjustment send everything flying.
I learned to save after each object placement and adjustments.
That and leaving Jericho outside......
Stupid raider would walk into my place mutter that "smokes are gettin harder to find" only to pull out a smoke in the same hand that Eugene is in, (making him look like Hercules) sending everything in his radius flying uncontrollably.

Oh. See, I thought you had to actually leave the town and wait a few days before returning. That's why it surprised me.

I guess I'll get back into Fallout 3 and do some experimenting.

[/quote]That was awfully out of context. :nono:
But seriously, they do have a place there... and that place is as a past presence, with a few traces of their past occupation* of the region.

*meaning abandoned base or lost or forgotten equipment, or even a few ex Enclave survivors ~not likely proclaiming their past, I'd bet.

most annoying [censored] ever,
took me too long to beat the game becuase of it

I always wished they had made looting containers work differently. It bothered me that you could somehow divine that a container was empty but be unable to discern the contents of a full one.

:shrug:

heres a good one...

being attacked by a lone baseball bat wielding raider whilst wearing full powersuit armour carrying a flamethrower...

a bit more common sense in the AI.

only be attacked if you LOOK like a weak/vulnrable target.
