fallout NV freezes

[twistedheat15]

Taking a stab at NV I just about 15min's into the game play on ps3 and already I get a glitch that completely froze the game to a hard reset! Awesome! What's your first glitch time?

 

[Belgian_Waffles]

At least yours runs at a solid FPS
every other frame freezes up on my PC.

 

[Hashime]

F3 was just as bad, I still love both though. I remember falling through the map in F3 once having to replay a large trivial ware house.
Now that I am off the PS3 and on my computer the first bug fixes will be out very soon, if I don't fix it myself.

Here's [http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_3_bugs] a list of all Fallout 3 bugs.

That's not even the full list, just general bugs. Then there's all the DLC, quest, location and NPC specific bugs. And then all the bugs and crashes fixed by patches.

Trust me, NV won't be any better.

Lotsa 'Fallout: New Vegas has such and such bug' threads.

Nice work Obsidian!

I wonder if all of this grief is aimed at the PS3 version...and the PC version. I've seen some clipping but no crashes or, freezing and, I'm playing on the 360.

I've played six hours on the PC version of New Vegas today, and I haven't had a single crash, bug, or graphical problem.

Go me!

Oh it'll hit ya, just when you least expect it. They're sneaky glitch ninjas, they just pounce at different times on each system. I knew fallout 3 was a bug filled hell hole but wtf how do you make a game so epic yet so fcked up at the same time.

I'm playing on the PC and it honestly hasn't been that bad. The game has frozen up a few times, but I've played for 10 hours so far so I think that's fair enough.

 

[Ironman126]

I'm on a PC and the only issue i experienced (that wasn't my own fault) was a minor clipping issue in one part. Granted, i'm not even remotely close to being done with the game, but so far (four+ hours in) i've had no intolerable issues. I didn't with Fallout 3 (pre-patch) so i have high hopes for New Vegas.

 

[Zeromaxx]

I noticed some graphical tearing on the horizon around hour 6...yay PC version.

 

[twistedheat15]

Maybe it's Karma? Maybe you have an old, misused console? Maybe you're playing it wrong? (I don't even know what that means)

PC glitches I understand, but why can some people have no problem on a console, when others have so many problems?

Could it be the disk itself perhaps? Maybe try to return for another copy of it.

I am going to jinx myself by declaring no Bethesda game has ever froze (360 user) on me. So far, that is still true... Oblivion, and FO3 anyway.

12 hours into new vegas so far.

lol actually I'm playing on a brand new console, it was in fact the first game I tried on it just for a sec to make a char and shoot a random person outside before I go back to red dead. I just found it funny that the game froze b4 I could even put my first slug in an unsuspecting skull. I expected it to have bugs but geez don't cock slap me with'em b4 I know what's going on.

I heard that the console versions have much longer loading times.

Fallout (yes the original was buggy)

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines

Epic games that are buggy as hell, it's a tradition.

I can see how a Black Isle game has some relevance to Obsidian, seeing as how there are many overlaps in staff. But the Troika Games? What do they have to do with Obsidian?

All Fallout games have been riddled with bugs. Fallout 1 and 2 had some crazy gamebreakers if you encountered them. Tactics got pushed onto the shelves more bug collection than game. Fallout 3... well, we all know that story.

It's part of the fallout experience.



No, I don't accept that console thing to be a fallout game.

 

[zombiesinc]

Don't have the game yet, but I'm expecting my fair share.

 

[NotSoNimble]

Sheesh, and people wonder why they say computer gaming is dying (they aren't tho, I know)... after reading all these 'helpful' suggestions, I see why people are buying consoles.

So much effort just to play a game sucks.

Oh, I meant it a general observation, that some of the most epic games can still be buggy as hell but we love them anyway. It's certainly been a tradition in my gaming experience.

I get my copy on Thursday

Which is tomorrow!!! :O

Most of these complaints are coming from consoles. New Vegas is an equal opportunity bug fest (I'll still be buying the GOTY edition).
