Ned Logan:
I don't think the slow travelling speed is a problem itself.
The problem is, how could lvl 1 newbie get weapons to be able to kill brahmins and get a tent.
For total newbie, it is very hard to make mining trips, because of encounters like others have said...
You can get a free gun at some places, but that is usually just 1x.

For any other than unarmed and melee builds the game is just too difficult at start. Even if you invest some points in unarmed and melee you still probably wouldn't be able to kill brahmins...
I think brahmins should be made weaker - less AP, weaker attacks, slow movement speed in RT. This way every newbie should be able to kill them even hth with a hit n run tactic.
About getting a weapon, there either should be some repeatable quest for the basic ones, or just make sure there are always some at the vendors and people can do the box carrying...

That you can farm stuff at random encounters is very good, but I don't expect lvl 1 newbie who never played the game to do that, nor know where to find such nice encounters...

Btw, I heard from friends that ~80% outdoorsman is enough to avoid most encounters now, before wipe it was really sucks. But I read changelog again... and there is no word about outdoorsman working other way.
So is it true that outdoorsman reworked and you don't need 180% anymore to be able to avoid encounters properly?

But anyway my 22% is enough to avoid encounters from time to time, and my friend when had ~88% outdoorsman got only 5 XP per avoiding, while I got 133-150 XP or something like that.

Surf:
I have ~115 outdoorsman and it's really enough to avoid nearly every encounter. Also, I noticed a slightly faster Worldmap Travel.

Solar:
Outdoors is the same as before - Zone difficulties were redone. It depends where you are, but ~100 will allow you to skip most encounters in easy areas, up to ~180 being required in difficult areas. (Theres a lot more easy areas than hard ones)

Trokanis:
We had 116% outdoorsman, and Were still getting beat on, around NCR and I'm talking between the mine, the military base area, and the Train.  I just got dropped into another damn encounter no avoidance with 6 PC's thank god they just wanted me to do things like /blowjob, and then I could live.  I had just filled up at the mine.  Would have been the second time in 2 trips to lose everything.
