Still enjoying the game, the newness hasn't warn off yet. Here are some more notes
- I now have 3 sets of power armor frames, one with only 2 armor pieces found on one. I am using it even without armor to help with the over encumbrance and base armor defense pts
- I found seven fusion cores in a box by a railway station. They were 50% but still a nice find. There is a bug where if you have a core in the power armor and exit the game, when you come back in it'll be at 100%. Yes, I took advantage of this and continue to do so
- Found a place where I've gotten repeated power cores. Hope it stays relatively unknown so I can take advantage of this vs at the airport
- There are random "daily events" that keeps the game somewhat fresh
- Somewhat undecided about the economy system. I have a lot more stuff to sell and there seems to be less to buy so am scraping a bunch of stuff. Haven't found a good way to get rid of excess ammo and chems
- Some players have tried to connect with me through voice but I am ignoring them. I have only seen one red octagon which indicates the other player has shot another player. Stayed away from it.
- I am surprised at the lack of other players (indicated by round circles). The ESO had other players everywhere. Not sure what this means e.g. there are alot of servers/other worlds out there or just a lack of players?
- So far am good with the scaling. The scorchers are more difficult to hit and to kill at higher levels. Too many darn moles though
- Its very satisfying to snipe at mutants with a high powered .308 and taking one down with a single head shot!
I have noticed the lack of NPCs and the reduced immersion. I am okay with the lack of NPCs with story lines but I don't get why they don't have more "humans" at the train stations or at farms. It does reduce the immersion somewhat by not having a human face to interact with.
