Work in progress.

I've been meaning to make a character guide in light of Broken Steel and the Almost Perfect perk. So far I've been playing around with a complete stealth/sniper vats and non-vats hybrid. Game difficulty is set to very hard, otherwise it wouldn't be much of a challenge to test this build but it basically goes as follows:

Strength    6 Perception  6 Endurance   6 Charisma    5 Intelligence 4 Agility     7 Luck        6

Obviously the major perks are the stealth based ones: Silent Running and Ninja, and all critical bonus and base damage perks: Lady Killer/Black Widow, Bloody Mess, Commando, Finesse, Sniper, Better Criticals.

You will also want: Action Boy, Grim Reaper's Spirit, and Almost Perfect.

You'll want to use the Chinese Stealth Armor at ALL times, the stealth field makes you very hard to spot in the day, with 100 sneak you're practically invisible unless you run up and touch them, and even then you can sometimes get away with it. I consider this to be the practical alternative to using Stealth Boys all the time. Using the Perforator and Jack, you'll be able to continuously fire without being spotted, so long as you keep moving. A good player should rarely if ever get hit.
