Just like you would in games like Escape From Tarkov, protect your head and chest but don't make the mistake to believe that this can ever be enought. Wasteland Ballistics will force you to play smartly and plan your actions more, even well protected, no matter what level you are. Just as important as protection, bullet penetration is now a thing to worry about. With this mod enabled, you won't need to alter the balance of the vanilla game. You won't even need the damage increase of better receivers (keep your crafting material). In fact, eventhough they don't make any sence, armor piercing receivers will greatly improve the performance of your weapon against armored enemies (especially pistols, carbines and submachine guns).
Beyond the description, you will have to test for yourself the efficiency of different ammunition and weapon type in different situations.
The level of difficulty will depend on your load order. Installing cool weapon mods can be a double edged sword.
Wasteland Ballistics is one of the most complete and compatible mod of its kind out of the box.
My Final Verdict after a lot of extensive testing:
So I have to say your mod is a masterpiece and makes this game fun again period. I've been promoting your mod because it really deserves more downloads and endorsements. For anyone without doubts have no doubt just download the mod and enjoy a new level of difficulty. This mod really changes the entire game.
I dont usually comment on mods but....YOUR mod add a new level of gameplay. Let me put it this way: Usually I clear Corvega in less than 5m even on very hard bur with your mod installed, it took me a solid 20m to clear it. I mean, your mod forced me to hide,use cover,lay down traps and draw them out. I spent all my grenades on them and, because I play with Endless Warfare increased spawns, I even had to reload the save a couple of times to try diferent tactics. Yes, this mod is that insanly good.
You didnt mention that even missiles have a wider blast radius, got hammered by them left and right, kudos to you dude. Really fraking awsome mod. Thank you for sharing this pearl with us and take care.
Masterpiece would be under selling this mod. Project Zero combined with Pack Attack is like playing old school Rainbow Six, when video games used to punish your errors with instant death but were the most adrenaline pumping virtual experience you could imagine.
I tried BLD and it has some nice concepts but ultimately it still relies on the weapon damage stat so you get to a point where you can just out gun everything and it can't support weapon mods without breaking it. WB allows you to fully customize your game without any stress, without the need to download a ton of micro patches and hotfixes and without breaking the design of the mod.
The bleed mechanic is punishing as hell but damn does it get your blood pumping when you are clearing tight corridors and rooms in close quarters combat. The amount of times I've been moving tactically clearing rooms and had a couple of raiders suddenly ambush me and it's all about reaction speed of who pulls the trigger first and trying not to get hit by a stray bullet as all hell breaks loose. Then that panic moment when you do take a hit in a full on fire fight and you know that you only have 2-3 seconds to stop the bleeding whilst trying not to get hit again. You feel like John Wick when you drop 2-3 Raiders whilst darting across a corridor with your SMG, stem the bleed from any shots you took and then drop the guy sneaking up on you with a well placed shot through a crack in the wall. It is just one crazy wild ride when things do not go to plan but damn does it feel good when you come out of it as the lone survivor.
I've only use it in the early game so far so I can't comment on how the armour later game protects against the bleed effect but I'm quite happy for the mod to continue being as punishing as the early game has been.
One word of warning to anyone who uses a laser musket replacer like I do. It might be too over powered as the damage is clearly aimed at it being single shot with a long reload to keep it balanced. I just simply avoid using the semi auto one I have modded into my game.
10/10, this one will not ever be leaving my load order.
The mod is amazing, the only problem I have is that when you shoot the water it sounds like a grenade explosion, that's really bad, does anyone know how to fix it?
Hello, please advise: I am currently using Weapons of Fate (I have already read that it is not compatible with your mod) for bullet ballistics (when a bullet loses altitude during flight due to gravity), but I am ready to replace it with your mod, since it does much more things. But, after reading the description of your mod, I could not understand whether there is a ballistics function in your mod or not. If your mod does not have ballistics, could you suggest another mod or a way to add ballistics that will be compatible with your mod? I would be VERY grateful for your help.
Really wanna give this mod a go but worried it and https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/28192 wont play together nicely. Anyone know if they work together
When I installed this mod it reset all of my other mods, so i had to click through all the menus and start over with those mods again. It continued to do this repeatedly every time i died or restarted the game.
