x3Darkie Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) I play a lot of FPS Games. Crysis 2, CoD, BulletStorm.. Just to name a few. And I find that the Combat in Fallout lacks a lot. There's no sprinting or melee. Which pretty much all FPS Games has. And I know what you're thinking. "This isn't your typical FPS Game, it's a FPS RPG!"... Or maybe I'm just being paranoid... Anyway, here's some of my idea of making the Combat System much more fun. -Melee. To be specific, smack someone in the face with mah rifle. Or stab someone with a bayonet. (WME)Crysis has it. Mass Effect has it. Gears Of Wars has it. CoD and BF has it. Why not Fallout?(Found a website on Google. But it has strong language, so I decided to take out the rude words and keep the important stuffs.)Knocking someone out by hitting them with the butt of a pistol. When done with a long gun (e.g. rifle or shotgun), it is referred to as a "Butt Stroke", or "Butt Stroking".If you do this in Real Life — with enough force — you can actually kill the victim by cracking their skull. Also, even the butt of a gun has quite a few pointy parts, which, if whacked against your face, will cause a lot of bleeding and probably leave a large and permanent scar. -Something I found really wrong is that when you use Stealth Boy, aiming down the sights is really messed up. You can't see crap even if you have Night Sights on your pistol. Scopes are just messed up. Try and use ZL Armaments and use Stealth Boy with ACR w/ ACOG Scope. Someone should make it able to see the Night Sights or Scope like in Crysis 2. -Sprinting. Yes. Project Nevada have it. What I think it should look like is you hold the gun on your chest while sprinting, and not holster the gun every time you start to sprint. Plus, What's cooler than having a animated sprint. I am not trying to be rude or anything, Project Nevada is a great mod. I hope the authors don't take this the wrong way.Reference video: Go to 0:15. (This is the best one I could find lol.) -Crouching is good, but what's better to Prone and get to really low cover? Most cover in the game have your head sticking out, I'm not sure why they didn't have a Prone feature. I think it'll be pretty cool to crawl around the battlefield and snipe people while lying down. That's all I can think of. If any modder think it's possible, please do create a mod for it. Edited November 7, 2011 by x3Darkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Androyddd Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Prone has been requested many times. It is a pain in the ass to do and is likely to never happen.The holding the rifle to your chest during spring technically already happens if you have certain running stances from Weapon Animation Replacers. Great mod if you don't have it already, highly recommended. Tre there's the holster issue, but I believe there are ways around that, just don't know them.As for the melee, there WAS a Fallout 3 mod that allowed you to do this, but the mod author unfortunately has the file set to hidden, and he's already stated that he isn't redoing for New Vegas. So yeah, unfortunately proly not gonna happen 3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeromus88 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Project Nevada adds sprint and bullet time, which should cover that request of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minngarm Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 (edited) Also when sprinting in PN if you hit a enemy at full speed you will knock them down. If they are big enough, it will also knock you down. And the stealth boy effects on iron sights is accurate. Its one of the disadvantages of using a light bending unit on yourself and youre equipment. Edited November 9, 2011 by minngarm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
