Melee Survival Mod

[harowan]

So I've been playing Fallout with the new Pilgrim ENB lately. And I've always hated Fallout's gameplay in the way that guns are so ineffective, so obviously I have a mod for that, a couple of shots kills all, PC included. But what I've always wanted Fallout to be is a lot more desperate in its gameplay. And by that I mean fewer people running around with military grade weaponry and more people desperately trying to survive with whatever they can find. This means melee. Fist fights, clubs, knives, the sort of stuff that is in the game to a degree but essentially useless.

 

What I want is a mod that overhauls melee so that it's a legitimate option for fighting. Makes it gritty and tough and desperate. Whilst at the same time reducing ammo so that it's rare and expensive, and guns, in general, are rare as well. But if you've got one you're essentially a god among men. It would have to change the AI so that it would recognise you have a gun, would be a bit dumb for a raider with a knife to charge at you if you have one and just cap 'em in the brain...

 

So essentially you'd spend most of the game with 5 or 6 bullets, saving them for the most desperate situations. And then the rest of the game bashing peoples skulls in with bats, clubs and fists. Which I think would work so well with the Pilgrim ENB.

 

Any takers?? :tongue:

You can accomplish this already with combining two mods. One that buffs melee (try unbogus melee) and one that significantly reduces ammo. Guns are melee weapons if they don't have ammo. And you might throw in a mod that makes npc's consume ammo when firing. And/or also gives them a spare melee weapon. I know these mods exist but I cant really name one off the top of my head cuz i've seen so many re-iterations of them.
