Craft a weapon for your best skill and don't let yourself surrounded.

You can always switch to turn based in FOConfig.exe

So lets say I put on turn based fighting but the other guy has real time fighting on. Then what?

That depends on whos encounter it is. If it yours and he jumps in, then it's in TB (If you are set on TB). But if you jump in to his and hes in RT(If he's playing in RT), then its in RT.
 

Reiniat:
As you can see there arent really essential tips about fight in Real Time, most of the players fight clicking a lot and waiting for the enemy to get killed before themselves, and it works most of the time (but since last update, not against most NPCs).
Anyway here are some hints to fight creatures:
- Most stuff that works in TB works in RT too, things like attack NPCs in line with burst weapons to deal more damage to each one, 1hex burst killing, etc. However shot and cover doesnt works since enemyes usually swarm.
- If you are fighting many enemies at once try to go to the corner of the map (even the one with grid) this way only 3 enemyes will be able to attack you at the same time.
- Never retreath, you should choose either in flee out of the encounter or sit tight and keep shooting (even if you get sorrounded), running let critters reload his APs and also attack you while running (maybe causing the ugly moonwalk).
- Radial damage guns like grenades and rocket launchers are good for attack swarms of critters, the best way you can do this is run and let them follow you and then throw at the far critters, 1hex throwing works really good if you have enough life and FA tagged(+120HP, 80HP if youre using molotovs).
- If you have a friend you can make many funny tactics like let one be pursued by the critters while the others shoot from a safe position (wich is BETTER than 2 guys attacking at once),  or use concentrated fire and attack the deadliest enemies first (not the toughest).
- If youre new, tag Melee or Unarmed as you said, just for lvl up until you craft or farm guns for your primary combat skill, 100% is enough to deal most enemyes with Unarmed or Melee.
