Read it and weep. Rarely have I seen so foolish a crowd or inept moderation.

So what did you expect? Shame about the crashes.

Yeah it's me. Was tough replying to it all the time though, some new quote or response kept popping up, it's like getting overrun by ants with puny arguments instead of fangs.

I don't know what to do about the crashes/freezes, wait for a patch I guess?
I wasn't kidding, oblivion did the exact same thing for a while, but not so much.

See, if he was 3ft taller, his feet would've touched the ground thus avoiding the execution. Remember to eat those beans, kiddos!

Hilariously stupid and lacking in common sense, the lot of them. They seem more concerned by the crashes than the clear logic failures in certain parts of the game.

couldn't disagree more. Performance wise... the game runs beautifully on my PC. I've not had a single crash (only have about 8 hours on my saved game). I think they have done a remarkable job at capturing the Fallout feel. I just replayed Fallout 1 and 2 over the summer in anticipation for this game. They have nailed the environment perfectly! I love running into a wandering scavenger and his broken down robot, or sticking close to a group of hunters as they approach a raider camp, or bumping into Brotherhood of Steel as they chase down an eyebot from the Enclave. This game lives up to the hype and I'm unsure why so many "Fallout fans" seem disappointed. I'm a Fallout Fan and LOVE this rendition!

---I haven't met a scavenger w/ a broken down robot, raiders fighting anybody except once when a talon mercenary happened to be chasing me into them, and the BoS only fought super mutants when it was scripted outside of the radio station.

WTF? What game is this guy playing - I've been playing easily for 20 hours already, and haven't seen this once, and barely found Dogmeat right before the last time I turned it off...????

Do not question the logic of MR Snake.

Oblivion 2. That's the fucking problem.

Also, am I the only one who sees the reeking damn irony in this thread?

Hey guys, a little bird told me that Bethesda will charge you $ 10 for downloading the patch to make the game playable. :giggle: :DLC:

Smart ass. It's a hopeless discussion, even if my arguments are exagerated, it's obvious they won't hear of anything bad about it, or in regards to how it measures up to the old games.

Cocksmocker? :hyper:

So running a game with maxed out graphics is the ultimate indicator of stability? Check.

Flamer.

Well yea, there tens to be more bugs with higher settings than lower, and by that I mean crashes in my case. Or not.

Anyway, besides that audio thing the game is running perfectly without glitches.
