With the sniper rifle, you can stand down the corridor and shoot at the Master from outside the range of his own guns, though you'll have the supermutants spawning right in your face. Is fallout 2 even worth the trouble or does it suffer from the same BS ?Īctually, the best gun in the game is the Turbo Plasma Rifle. Sucks too because I was loving the game and was able to overlook these issues when the enemies seemed to suffer from them as well. Would have been nice if I knew i was trading aimed shots for one less AP per shot, more or less retarding my progress at a point. Tooltips are total SHIT in this game and dont tell you anything. If a enemy is armored, then you are SOL as "armor piercing" ammo does NOTHING at all and regular ammo does even less than nothing. I just give up, never before has a game literally made me throw my hands up and give up this far into the game but I dont think the elevated blood pressure is worth this crap.Īrmor seems to not matter at all for you but becomes a impenetrable wall on NPCs.Īll your weapons are inherently weaker than ANY attack an NPC can do, even unarmed.įights later on in the game come down to nothing but taking a dozen stimpacks every single turn and maybe getting a single shot off.

You dont seem to progress AT all in this game as I still do the exact same amount of damage at level 15 that I did at lv 1 with a pistol ( and i mean that on the same mobs like radscorpions). The battle itself is a virtual impossibility since I can only get about 1 shot off per round then im forced to down about 10 stimpacks and pray one of the endlessly respawning sergeants dont insta-kill me. I didnt even find the Military base itself a challenge but holy shit I simply give up after trying every approach to finish the master off.


223 Pistol with 120% small gun rating) and seem to land NOTHING but critical shots (im in power armor but somehow melee attacks do 20-60 damage WTF!?).

After that point ALL you face is super mutant sergeants that take dozens of shots each (even using sniper rifle and the "Best gun in the game" the. The game ramps the difficulty up to 11 after the military base. I feel like my game must be broken as there is NO way this BS got past QA or has gone unpatched for this many years.
