Laptoprocker Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, I'm just wondering if anyone had the idea of a Hyperthermia mod for New Vegas. It would add a great deal of realism to the game. Its really not immersive that you can simply walk in the hot desert exposed to the sun continuously. You should feel increased thirst, decreased speed, and later heat stroke and hallucinations. Players should be trying to keep hydrated and seek cover from the sun. Carrying tons of equipments out in the direct sunlight should make you get tired and heated faster. You shouldn't be able to cross the Nevada Desert in a few days with ease, there also should be sandstorms. In the other hand nights in the desert should be deadly cold I was a great fan of Frostfall Hypothermia Camping Survival:http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/11163/? I'd love to see something similar in NV. In NV being in the desert is like a casual walk in the park, a sunday trip with kids (except the giant claws of death of course). In Skyrim I had to think ahead, plan my steps before taking a journey from A to B, have suitable things to wear, enough food a drink, tools to make a camp etc. In NV I use Project Nevada Extra Options and I crank up the thirst multiplier really high so dehydration is a real risk, it already adds tons of realism to my game. Anyway I just thought I'll share the idea, see what others think. Edited December 5, 2013 by Laptoprocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laptoprocker Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Haha not even remotely close I'm afraid. I'm not talking about a needs mod or a mod that simply displays temperature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xilandro Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Actually, very close. Temperature will affect your humidity. It's desert, not cold mountains. Game mechanics are very different, that's why needs mod + temperature mod are the best option for hardcore survival gameplay. Maybe it needs some kind of "hide from the sun, wear protective glasses, keep your weapon clean".About getting tired. Fallout games don't have stamina. Best option - skill penalties. Or fatigue damage. All this features are pretty simple and if you have at least 2 days of free time and will to learn - go ahead, read some tutorials, write few scripts =)Oh, almost forget about this great modhttp://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/45478/ Edited December 5, 2013 by Xilandro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
