The Pitt Launches to Bugs, Crashes on Xbox 360

I'll go get my cyberbalaclava and my cyberspraycan. Because when I'm cyberbullying someone, I like to spray cyberanarchist symbols all over their cybercrap. Not because I'm a cyberanarchist, but because it scares the cybernorms and makes me feel like a big cyberman.Srsly said:
Also, cyber.
Don't worry about the police. When we tell them how stupid Bethesda is, they'll actually turn around and arrest THEM.
(Seriously, though - they better fix The Pitt. I am so not even playing on that one.)
I'm siding with this angry person.sturryz said:
Surely they must do extensive testing, even in-house testing, that would have caught this beforehand. If they glitches and bugs are as common as I have read they are, Im guessing that they could have caught it EASILY if they tried.
Bethesda dont have the best record for finding bugs/glitches. I should know, I had the PS3 version of Fallout3, which was so riddled with gamebreaking programming that I asked myself if they had even tested if the disc had any data on it before shipping it.
I hope they fix this before the week is out I rerented Fallout 3 from Blockbuster so I hope I don`t have to pay for a late fee...
Alright who let the supermutants have root access to Bethesda's servers?
This really sucks, get it fixed and don't let anyone from the wasteland touch it. Ever.
On a more serious note:
dammit I wanted to play this today
I yearn for my auto-axe, it would go perfect with my CSA and shocksword.

To all the angry nuts out there cursing Bethesda: Shall I point out that the French version is still available for download?
Only the English version is bad. Which means it's not entirely Bethesda's fault.
The file is corrupted. That's nobody's fault. That shit happens. I doubt it'll take them very long to get it back up and running.

Fair enough you get the Fallout 3 DLC, but to be honest, I didn't like GTA IV, and so couldn't care less about which platform got the DLC for it...notoriouslynx said:
Yeah, shame I'm not home or I'd just get the french one although I prefer english. But yeah, proves the ignorance of the people that take a shit on Bethesda. Can't you read an article or do you need moving images to understand ?The Shade said:
Agreed with the above few posters who have enough intelligence to read an article. Bethesda didn't mess this up, Microsoft did when they uploaded the English file. All the other versions of The Pitt for other locations or languages work fine, the English file was corrupted. It was supposed to be 620mb, it was 490mb, so there's quite a few resources missing. It sounds like it was an honest mistake, either the wrong version was uploaded to the Live servers, or the data was corrupted while uploading. Either way, I don't see it being fixed at least until the Live servers update tonight, which is usually between 12 and 2am PST when they have a chance to upload the correct version. And for all of you demanding a refund, are you just going to use that refund to re-download it when the fixed version comes out? Or are you going to swear off Bethesda forever, which quite a few people said they would do after Oblivion, or the horse armor, or Fallout 3, or Operation: Anchorage, which apparently didn't happen. Something happened out of Bethesda's control, and both parties are working on fixing it. Besides, you can call Microsofts Live tech support and they will refund your mspoints. It was a mistake, and you will be able to download the fixed version as soon as it comes out, because that's how Live works. Once you pay money/points for a file, you can download that file as many times as you want. Just grow up for a minute and realize that in the real world mistakes can happen, and the world doesn't owe you anything because of it. If they just said "Oh screw them, we'll leave the expansion broken and take all their money, and then laugh while having a hot tub orgy in our alabaster palace on make-believe island" then there would be a problem. They're working to fix it, you've waited at least an extra month for this probably slightly better than mediocre DC, a day or two isn't going to kill you.
I'm fighting the urge to make a crack about the inherent superiority of PC gaming...
But back to the point, as has been noted by others, dumping on Bethesda is missing the mark. This is a failure of the distribution system, not of the DLC itself. It sucks, yes, particular for people who took time off specifically to play it on launch day - but honestly, I think that given the natural twitchiness of DLC, if you can't be bothered to wait a few days to make sure all is well then you roll the dice and you takes your chances.
