In fallout3 you could choose to target a stimpak to heal a specific limb that is crippled.

Is this possible in fallout4? I have not been able to accomplish this yet. I am on PS4.

Just using a stimpak automatically heals crippled limbs.

Its pretty lame. Its so easy why even bother with cripples at all? When people talk about dumbing down and streamlining I usually don't pay attention but this certainly counts.

And there was me hoping for doctors bags like in NV.

I like the system they had in FO3. It's far to easy to heal injured limbs.

Meh. In Fallout 3 no matter what type of character I made the very first thing I did was Moira's radiation quest so I could get the rad regeneration perk. Then I spent the entire rest of the game with advanced radiation sickness specifically to avoid limb damage.

It is too easy in Fallout 4, though. When I first started my character I had the adamantium skeleton perk earmarked as a "must get", but stimpaks are in such abundance that it would be a wasted perk pick.
