Fallout – How to increase movement speed

The difficulty of starting out in Fallout is one of my favorite aspects of the game; feels more realistic that way. :) My tactic usually involved making sure my character was a good shot with the pistol starting out. A character build without a decent small guns skill will be much harder. Then until I manage to scrounge better armor and weapons, I try to only pull one enemy at a time. It takes a long time to fight through a level one monster at a time, but it's the most survivable tactic when available. Also make sure you use your resources. Chems or grenades might seem like the kind of thing you should save, but especially at low levels use what you've got!

Although the difficult settings modify the aggressiveness of the AI, it does not improve the AI. It just adds income, building speed, attack, defence and moral bonuses to the AI. If you feel it was too easy you can increase the difficult by reducing spending in campaign, or spend less point in allocating troops in skirmish.

Human opponents are more difficult than AI. I suggest you should wait for Total War Rome II or other RTS games and you will have real challenges again.
