[REQz] Targeted Shots - VATS reworked

Post » Wed Dec 29, 2010 2:14 am

Here's the idea:

  • VATS is only accessible when crouched and not moving.
  • All you get to do is pick what body part you are aiming at.
  • No slo-mo playback at all. Once you have picked your targeted shots, VATS ends and your shot is fired. I don't how you would implement this. Perhaps make the playback real-time with no damage modifiers?

Basically, I really like targeted shots, but don't exactly like VATS as it is.

What do you think? Possible? Interested?

might be possible, buuut probably be a while before one of the big guns can get to something like this.

In the meantime do what I do:

1. Use NVSE
2. Install NOAUTOAIM
3. Install REALISTIC HEADSHOTS
4. Install DK Bullet time for NV
5. Adjust bullet time to:
5a. one notch less than default for AP usage
5b. two notches slower for time slowdown (this is reaaallly slow)
5c. 'cool blue' effect (easier on the eyes).


et Voila. All the smarmy goodness of a targeted shot without all the vats bushwah.

codicil: Vats is still useful for shooting the odd grenade out of the air/their hand.

Sounds like a good approach. I've used FWE in FO3 for a while now, but even with the VATS customisability, I use bullet time instead. It's just that there is something satisfyingly RPG-ish about stopping action to call a targeted shot.
