Yeah playing on PC. It's certainly not the best combat ever but it is worlds better than any previous Bethesda title save possibly for their involvement with RAGE, but I think that was more of a publishing deal and the gunplay was all ID software.

I can't comment on using a gamepad, it has always felt like writing left-handed to me.

Really dial in the sensitivity I'd say. It took me like legit cranking it up and then adjusting down by 2% at a time to find a sweet spot. But it's definitely much more responsive and tighter than any other Fallout-esque game they've done. Those always felt mushy.

I'll say too it's probably that the games aim assist is very light. Like almost hardly there. For a single player offline game it could use a small increase. Like I'm still able to head shot dudes but it's noticeable, and combined with muscle memory for similar games, having hardly any 'magnetism' is an adjustment. I keep meaning to look if there's a slider in the settings.

I'm on Xbox and enjoying the shooting far more than any fallout. My favorite part of the game so far is the combat I think
