    Question about Armor

    Remember also that Armor doesn't always work. If an enemy scores a critical hit on you, there's a chance it could bypass the armor and hit you as if you weren't wearing any armor at all. Kind of a "chink in the armor" sort of thing. The good news is that it applies to their armor too.

    FO2: Ironman Build

    Will do, Per. At the moment I can only vouch for a sniper build as I assume a melee build would be significantly harder as getting up close and personal can subject you to increased risk from enemy attacks.

    FO2: Ironman Build

    Combat and Game difficulty set at hardest levels. Won the game. Thinking about maybe putting a short FAQ on neoseeker. It helps a lot to have good knowledge of the game so that you know when and how to get yourself out of tight spots.

    FO2: Ironman Build

    FO2: Ironman Build

    In my non-ironman games I never was able to do this. Do you need a level of small guns above 100% or is there some other key. Basically if I could hit them, they could hit me. Basically I would just have to pluck out their sensors before they landed a sufficient hit on me to kill me. If they...

    FO2: Ironman Build

    Was wondering if anybody had any minor tips or hints on how to best survive an Ironman build in FO2. Having played the game a lot, I'm thinking the problem areas will be: The long slog from The Den to Modoc and Vault City Risking the Zeta Scan in NCR for the luck bonus Ripped to shreds...
