Well, i got the game on the 28th and so far i really like it. There are only a few annoyances i can think of.

Game is HUGE and the local map on the pipboy is entirely inadequate. Because the local map sucks it can be very hard to find what your looking for and very easy to get lost.

Repair system is icky too - i apparently need to have the same items in order to repair them, which is very annoying since a lot of the time people arent carrying combat shotguns but my gun really needs to be fixed.

World map is good except for the fact that you cant fast travel to new places on it - you have to walk, which can be a real pain when there are cities in the way that have many impassable areas.

Does anyone know where to find more schematics for things you can create yourself with your workbench? would be nice if I could theorize or puzzle things out with the workbench, but it seems i must buy recipes to use.
