Fallout NEW VEGAS BABY!

[Leo Cantus]

I was looking forward to getting NV but then I hear about all the bugs. Apparently a patch has been released now, does this fix most of the freezes and bugs?

Dude, I don't know what you're talking about, A constantly crashing game, Self deleting saves, quests instantly failing? Npcs randomly despawning?!?!, that is not game breaking at all.*sarcasm*
85pnt Reviewers average is not critically acclaimed.
You were criticizing New Vegas because of entirely different reasons to the bugs of the game. There is no denying that New Vegas has a completely unacceptable amount of bugs. I personally hate the developers for releasing an obviously untested game, and to add insult to injury, they double the price for Australians (on Steam) for no reason, aside from matching EB Games prices. Our Steam price is literally twice that of the United States.

I have no love for New Vegas, but you appeared to simply be hating on New Vegas for no reason apart that it's popular and new.

Anyway, let's all calm down a bit now. What's the worst bugs you guys have seen?
My favorite bug is when I added a laser sight to the Weathered Pistol (from the Classic DLC pack). You have to see it for yourself, it sums up the general quality of the game.

Not at all.

Where can I go to get weapon mods?

Already saw that, lol. I've experienced that bug on a lesser scale. I saw a child in the kneeling position, sliding through town at running speed.
It's also great to talk to NPCs that are stuck within the ground, and you have to interact with the top of their head.

My game crashed when I shot some guys head off in vats.

I thought NV was an okay game, but I have a huge problem with Obsidian. (Long story) Anyway, besides, a boring story, uninteresting landscape, (Don't argue it's a desert, it's boring and lazy programming) and horrible VO's clouding a great-written scripts, it's a decent game.

The fact that some of the original devs is a nice touch, but the game seems rushed. I dunno, I really don't feel like reiterating my review again.

EDIT:So....I killed Caesar and the entire Centurian army at The Fort with a Super Sledgehammer. Let me tell you something, people. I have never before felt like a God.

Especially when you take out all those damn Praetorian Guards. Fuck they were annoying. That being said, much caps were to be had when I sold all of the Ballistic Gloves (after I repaired them all to max of course.)

Dude, fuck that. I cleared the entire dam, beating both NCR and Legion with those things. It was the greatest trip of my life.

So my friend pirated a copy and he has a pretty top-notch gaming PC. It did crash for him now and then but after restarting his PC he barely had any issues. No framerate issues too. He set it from Ultra to High if you were wondering and it ran better plus there was barely any difference.

I'm on his PC right now so I may just nab some time on it.

I find that the crashes are usually fairly random. I get them every 30-45 minutes, sometimes less frequent.
Although, the game will crash everytime I contact the Brotherhood of Steel. I simply cannot progress with them.

Oh, and just wait until you get the Anti-Material Rifle. They spelled it "Materiel".

My little brother's been playing New Vegas every second of every day since he got it on Friday evening. It's annoying because he never actually does anything. He just wanders around taking potshots at random objects. I find it amusing that even though he's spent years glued to his control pad playing shooters of various types he still can't aim worth a toss.

And I thought I was a Grammar Nazi.

lol, got me there. Although, I've always seen it as "material". Even on the Fallout Wiki they jump between the different spellings, haha.
Well, seeing as "materiel" is a french word meaning military hardware, it's no wonder that I've seen "material" more often. Materiel isn't an English word.
Most people type it as material I suppose. I prefer it that way, so it's going to be bothering me seeing it as that spelling in the game.

 

[MelodieOctavia]

I would imagine an "Anti Material Rifle" would be some sort of energy weapon.

 

[Deleted User]

This game would be much better if it had Samus's or Megaman's arm cannon.

Just tried to mod my Classic Pack 10mm pistol, and the weirdest thing happened: The gun disappears from my hand and the screen gets foggy. There I was holding an invisible gun, and it is now easier to see the landscape. The screen bug was annoying, but the invisible gun bug was amusing.

Zoom out into 3rd person mode. Prepare to laugh.

Okay, I think I have enough material to base a review on. Wish me luck guys.
