Simple Lock & Hack Perk Adjustment

[cranston777]

Hello,

 

This is my first request that I am aware of on here. I have tried looking for something like it but haven't found anything, so if I'm making a request for something that is already out please just point me to it.

 

What I would like to see:

A mod that allows you to use the standard game mechanics for picking locks and hacking computers at any level without a perk.

The more difficult the lock or hack, generally, the more time it takes to bypass it.

So I can *try* to pick a master lock or a master hack at level 1 without a perk.

If you take the perk, it allows you instant access (like easy pick/hack mod).

The idea is you can try it without the perks or you can spend points on the perks to make it way faster.

 

Why I would like to see this:

I like exploration, but I think it is lame that you need a perk just to try a hack or lock.

The perk should be a PERK something that enchances your ability, imo.

So you can go through the game without the perks, using lots of game play time trying to get through locks...

Or you can get a perk that allows you to crack the code/lock quick.

It allows you access to try hacks and locks early on, and if you want to spend perks on it later, it gives you an advantage.

Personally I think this is how the game should have been released, just my opinion though.

 

What I have:

Right now I am using the easy hack/pick mod that pops locks and only gives the right answer for the hacks.

I still put my perks into locks and hacks to access them.

It saves me a lot of time, but lacks immersion.

So I would like to break pins on locks trying to get in until I have put a point into a perk that makes me sly enough to pop locks on the quick.

 

I'm not sure how much time or effort it would take to do this, but I am sure that there are a lot of players out there looking for immersive mods that would appreciate another option to the easy hack/pick mod. I do use the easy mod, I do appreciate all the time it has saved me but I'm just looking for something with another option to it.

Side note: Playing on a pc, but I am on survival mode without access to console commands.
