Well, there goes 37 hours and 10 minutes. I just started over after growing very unhappy with my first character. Too big a focus on killing, and 100% gimped when it comes to speech, lockpicking and hacking. Now I'm doing the "standard" build:
Str 6
Per 4
End 8
Cha 2
Int 9
Ag 6
Luck 5
Or something like that. I'm no longer using melee, can train myself not to pick everything I find up and only keep 1 or 2 heavy weapons on me at a time (have 4 at a time on my first character). Perception isn't much use except for the compass and some minor bonuses to skills I don't plan on focusing on. I still want to focus on heavy weapons and I like the HP/resistance bonuses from endurance. Charisma, bla, never been a speech guy in RPGs, and it looks like you can compensate with other SPECIALS or skills. Intel speaks for itself (hauling ass to Rivet City ASAP). Agility is good, I've tagged small arms, but only use VATS so much; either way, I can stand to wait for action points to regen. Luck is too much about luck so I'll leave it at that. I saved just before leaving the Vault so going to sleep on my decision.
Patch is screwy. There are a LOT of reports of that exact same scenario happening, including me. If your game still works, I'd just leave it. If you have to reinstall, the patch isn't worth it. I still crash on exit.

Anyone having problems with the patch installing? Mine seems to lockup and not do anything, let it sit for over an hour...I will try a defrag but c'mon this is just silly.
