I like J.E. Sawyer's Van Buren combat philosophy though:

I'd like to see fewer damage multipliers, more crippled limbs, more severe penalties to hit the eyes, and crits that ignore a portion of the armor, but never bypass it completely.

I believe that the different called shots should be made more useful overall. Eyes is clearly "the way to go" in the first two Fallout games. It shouldn't just be a "well, duh" choice. Limb crippling should be more common, IMO. Blinding should also have even more dramatic penalties, but the chance to hit the eyes should be reduced even more.

Funny enough, we got it a while ago, because I bugged around so much, until we finally got a higher chance for crippleing limbs, etc. But then, oh well, nobody liked it. It's always either all or nothing--- "I kill my target or I don't like it."

The new uber-eye shots is something I don't like as well, but there will be a change soon...

Hololasima:
What change ? Again ?

Izual:
Thrilling !

Attero:
Atm head shots instants do check against LUCK or END (dev didnt clarify) however eye shots dont do check  - so for eye crit you have 20% chance to die at spot

everyone can tell that this is bad - i would remove the instant kill chance from head and make eye ones do check against Luck or end . If that will fail then total removal of instants will be needed.


Another thing while im not sniper i think bypass is too often atm - dunno but someone that snipes alot would need to clarify the bypass chance here.

Killy:
Lexx why didnt u ask big factions for help before the wipe, balance all the weapons ammo armors bg vs eye shoots etc ...
who can do it better than pvp players ? after making leveling new char so difficult u gonna change weapons skills and ways of dealing dmg, dont u think its silly?
someone wasted a few weeks just to find out that the new way of calculating dmg is making his char unplayable?
sneak is another silly thing after the wipe, again i cannot see guys wearing metal armors with miniguns 3 hexes from me ...
