Sleeping no longer heals the player or their limb condition making stimpaks and doctors the only way to heal limbs.Now that massive stockpile of Simpaks won’t do you any good if you’re not using them properly. Health/Rads restored are based on vanilla Fallout 3 amounts to maintain game balance. Stimpaks, radaway and every other food and drink item restore health/rads over time.Those interested can download this Hardcore Mod from here, and below you can find its key features. Thus, think of it as a subtle background change that does not aim to fully overhaul your experience, but merely add to what’s already there. In other words, this mod should act the same as turning on Hardcore Mode in Fallout New Vegas. It also aims to add more depth to surviving in the world. The goal of this mod is to work within the balance of the original game adding in more strategy and thought to the gameplay. As such, it keeps values and rates the same where possible. According to the modder, this mod does not take any liberties with Fallout 3’s original balance. Modder ‘vasiD’ has released a new mod for Fallout 3 that adds a Hardcore Mode to it.
