Critical hits
Solar:
Well Jackhammers and p90cs are better at different things. Jackhammers will also be cheaper to run and maintain - and as has been said, should be more flexible in which perks you can take with them. Different weapons should always be able to be comparaed with X is better here and Y is better for this, else we get a very generic system.
--- Quote ---I'd personaly prefer crit mods reducing crippling and damage mod effects instead of critical chance itself, while also providing less extreme protections ( ofcourse not in case of the best power armors )).
But if we recieved scaling crit reduction (more on eyes and head, less on torso) it might be balanced as well, but still somewhat spiky.

Reducing crits effects is how perks will work, armour will reduce the chance. You will also have a kind of scaling in that helmets will have a CM bonus, so you will have 3 different values if you are in armour, Head shot (incl eyes), Body shot (Torso, Arms, Groin) and then Legs.
All I hope for is some useful stuff along with the usual "You broke my favourite weapon!!!11" posts. ;)

Aren't leg protected by CA?
Btw, about critical hit: I always thougt that boosting leg crit chance at same level than arm, and groin at same level than head would be good (with the same aim penalty too ofc), like it would allow really to choose what effect you want to have more than just "eyes or arm" (foe, if groin crit table was better than head one, aiming at eyes when the ennemy show his back would be less effective than aim his groin).

These post have a reason to exist ! Though not all of them are right/usefull, sure.
Btw, could we hope some intense CBT with many hot fixes and hot testing before the wipe to begin with a better session faster?
Solar:
I imagine there will be some variety of CBT, though I expect it will be more to find bugs rather than anything balance related.
As I say, there will be lots of changes: Weapons, Armours, Perks, Crafting, Repair, Encounters - I will only begin paying attention to opinions on balance after a good few weeks.

Solar:
It will give time for all the whines to synchronise :p. But without a few weeks of the new system I will doubt how much of everything has been properly tested - so complaints about one thing might have a natural counter elsewhere which will be discovered in time.
