The Ominous Stutter

[Wasteland Watcher]

There's something I've noticed over the past few months of gameplay that only occurs outdoors: an ominous "stutter" or a 500 millisecond lag will occur at certain "key" locations and then something will happen ...or not. I think it depends on a hidden 'luck' stat.

Anyhow, at the point the ominous stutter occurs, the most noticeable things that happen are either a sprain (normally within 1.5 seconds of the lag) or a wolf being within about 50~150 feet of you.

If a sprain does not occur I immediately crouch and ready my rifle (or bow).

The ominous stutter has become a weird way for me of identifying if danger is present :geek:
