Actually, it's sad to see Obsidian not release actual info as to what happened, and everyone ignorantly stack them up with Bethesda.
A friend of mine who got contracted by Obsidian, recently got hit with layoffs, this is normal since he was on limited time contract, but other people also, part of the core developmental team got hit with the layoffs also.
With Dungeon Siege, having gone Developmental Gold (meaning it's next to complete, just packing and cleaning it up and stuff), they didn't need the guys anymore, hence the layoffs.
My friend, who is a Technical Engine Artist made it clear that he has to leave after, the contract, the country, yet this very morning, at around 9, he got a phone-call in which they essentially ask him if he could stay because they're having technical problems in several departments.
So yeah, go ahead and blame Bethesda guys, this still doesn't change the fact that Obsidian simply doesn't know how to direct itself, nor to keep core team members on a game, nor QA anything without disbanding all of their employees and then rushing back to them.

Damn well played!HankMan said:
I have Fallout NV for PC and it has worked very well. The only problem is that whenever I crouch, the FPS drops to around 15. But if I Alt + Tab and go back it is good again.
I also got stuck in the environment once, but I was not about activating no-clip.
Otherwise NV has been awesome for me. FO3 on the other hand... %#^#&*&&@*&#*G&#^C!!! That game messed with my pc.
And HankMan does it again...
How the hell can he make so many puns?!?!?
I want a mind like that.
Though, this is a bit funny, though mostly sad. How is this even possible, don't they test stuff? Or didn't it just happen to the testers? Hells if i know.

The game on PS3 seems to crash much more frequently now in casinos. When I say "More frequently", I mean constantly.
There was also The Pitt.Ultratwinkie said:
Remember that? When Bethesda released a fucked up download, where lots of the textures/meshes were missing, and it was just generally a complete fuck up? And don't get me started on how it was on Games For Windows Live. Good god, that was just unbelievable. In fact, pretty much all of Fallout 3's DLC was bugged to shit in some way. Some more than others.
Bethesda's in charge of the testing/patching. Want someone to blame, blame them for missing all this stuff.Judgement101 said:
Waitaminute. Fallout: New Vegas is even more messed up? Like I told Bethesda on their site, they should have spent more on testing the game and less on advertising it. Yes, the commercials looked great, but it's unfortunate the game is such a buggy, glitch-filled clusterfuck.
Why are the unofficial patches better-made than the ones from the companies that actually made the game?
just a quick note for some of you.... if the update messed up your game you can fix it temporarily yourself. go into system settings and memory. find the game data for new vegas and delete the update. then deny update after restarting game. worked like a charm for me..
Oh, I Hope Obsidian doesn't get sued. They just laid off a dozen people. A Lawsuit now would lead directly to it's dissolution, at this point. And that is definitely a DO NOT WANT!.RaikuFA said:
Seriously New Vegas is an Excellent game. I just wish it had none of this bullcrap surrounding it. That way it would've easily been a contender for GotY 2010, and Obsidian wouldn't have to be sitting on the edge....
