What mods add the most realism without making the game easier?

[Geoff741]

I'm playing on very hard on ps3 and breezing through. I have more caps, health items and ammo than I would need for 20 playthroughs, and i refuse to abuse glitches (inc dogmeat) or use broken items like chinese stealth armor. I do have max stats and skills though :P

 

So i bought the Pc version for next play through and want a mod that adds a lot of realism

examples, realistic no more 40 point blank shotun shells to kill a reaver, but no more surviving after being shot 10 times foe me either

ammo and health weighs something (i have around 70 mini nukes that together weigh less than a pack of smokes :P)

no more insta healing from 1 hours sleep or no rads from clicking the infermary

 

 

also i'm almost 2 years in game time and i've had maybe 10 things to eat/drink

 

i've done a bit of searching but so far it seems most people prefer mods that make the game easier so i'm having trouble fimding something that doesn't make me a god or capable of crrying every item in th game

 

 

also, does the ash/goo piles glitch plague pc version too?

FWE Fallout Wanderer's edition definetily. And it is as configurable as you wish to make it harder.

Nice, this looks to be exactly what i want. Thank you.

definately FWE.

i only wish there was a WMK patch for the weapons that FWE adds, or a way to disable those extra items.

There is a patch look for FOIP. You can modify some of the FWE weapons with this.

If you find the food requirements not hardcore enough, try IMCN - Imp's More Complex Needs. You'll need a good amount of protein, nutrients, calories, hydration, and sleep. Also works with FWE very nicely. If you experience any incompatibilities with your mods, it's very well supported.
