The Project Nevada menus will make the game harder in some areas and a bit easier in others. I make the helmet vision mods drain energy cells slower, but the Experimental Detection AI is turned on to make the game a bit harder. Overall, it makes the game a little harder especially with regards to spawning loot. There is many mods that add in new loot to the game and reducing the spawn rate is absolutely necessary or the game becomes way to easy.

MCM Settings for Fear and Loathing in New Vegas

Mods like Project Nevada have many options that can affect the game play of Fallout New Vegas. This is good for users since they can customize these options through the MCM menu. Anything not listed below is left at default.

Personally, these are my preferred settings and many users may want to tweak them from what I recommend to fit their own playthrough and style. I like having a lot of HUD elements that pop up and give lots of info. I tend to wear helmets from Ranger Combat Armor or Powered Armor, so I like to imagine it has lots of projected elements. If you are doing a different type of playthrough then the best place stop lots of HUD elements from showing up is with the Extra HUD and Immersive HUD MCM menus.

The Project Nevada menus will make the game harder in some areas and a bit easier in others. I make the helmet vision mods drain energy cells slower, but the Experimental Detection AI is turned on to make the game a bit harder. Overall, it makes the game a little harder especially with regards to spawning loot. There is many mods that add in new loot to the game and reducing the spawn rate is absolutely necessary or the game becomes way to easy.
