I've finished both games more times then I can count. (As I'm sure most of the people here have.) Yet, I've always done this on the standard difficulty mode. However, I installed Fallout again as my need to revisit the wasteland grew too hard to ignore. This time, I desided to try the game using "rough" combat and "hard" overall game difficulty...

I'm about half way throu the game now, But I've not noticed that many differenses.. The one I DID notice was that there was a Rad Scorpion guarding the entrance to Vault 15. Anyone else thats seen any other differenses and would like to point them out? Btw, I realize this is the FO1 forum, but if you've seen something like this in Fallout 2 don't hesitate to point this out as well. Thanks!

I think the radscorpion appears with regards to the time of day, or it could a roll. I've gotten it playing through on all difficulty lvls.

As for changes, I assume it'd change around rolls for damage, enemy criticals, and increase required stats for certain quests (like speech for getting Tandi out of the camp...etc).
