Oh, definitely, Orange - whenever I build a new camp I first check the local area out for spawn points and try it a few times to see what arrives. I was in a very quiet area; a random group of three things arrives every now and again but it's not too bad. It's the levelling that frustrates me... but I probs need to look at my weaponry and character build. Which leads us on to...

Yeah, I generally just use my .308 sniper rifle but it often needs a lot of hits to take an enemy down; as in up to six or seven shots for a ghoul or mutant. I barely use a melee weapon or anything else!
I probably need to use a shotgun and check my character setup. I'm gonna dig out the details later and post 'em here just to see if you guys can spot anything obviously wrong or to suggest if the weapons I have available are good or not.
I think I'm struggling a bit because, although I'm level 46, I've only got that from playing for hours rather than completing missions and upgrading. I tend to just wander around and find spots to build a camp :-).
