Hardcore mode really is HARDCORE! And gives the game that final push of realism that it needs. In Fallout New Vegas the new developers have introduced Hardcore mode. In Fallout 3 you had several forms of difficulty Very easy, easy, average, hard, very hard. As well as the new iron sight introduction, Obsidian have also given each melee weapon a special power attack and a series of new weapons, but I'll leave that for the DEFEND YOURSELF! section. Having around 65 Guns and you'll be sorted. This will increase how much damage you do, your precision and all other traits that equip with a high guns skill. But this can be easily remedied by getting to about level 9-12, but you need to dedicate most of your skill points into your Guns skill. But, like Fallout 3, the bullet spread is still as awful as its predecessors'. It couldn't have come sooner! If you don't know what iron sight means, basically, it's where you (in first person) can aim down the sights of the gun. After about 20 minutes of playing the game I was completely emmersed! The groggy hip aiming of Fallout 3 has been replaced with IRON SIGHTS! Finally you can aim properly and explode some brains! Yes, Obsidian has finally implemented iron sight into the Fallout universe and personally.
