Before I paid for any DLC I figured I would come here and see what people are saying about it, and I'm seeing the same thing I did when NV was first released, a looot of pissed off people. The only complaints I've seen that I care about are how often it's freezing for people. A freeze once per hour I can handle since I only play anything for an hour or two any given day, but some people are saying they have had to restart their PS3 every like... 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and I think that would be a bit much for me. At the same time though, people with an issue are more prone to be vocal than someone satisfied to some extent so I wanted to make this and hopefully get a little "balanced" input on just how bad it really is for the average person to see if I really want to spend the money on all of the DLC like I was intending to.

So yeah, want to buy all of the DLC at once, wondering if it will freeze so much that I will regret the purchase, can't afford to just blow the money on something I won't like at all, assistance please, etc.

I havn't froze once after the second game patch.

No regrets here, use to get the odd freeze when i first purchased game, none for a long while now though, i downloaded all DLC from XBL.

They never froze on me, and they add quite a lot to the background story of the main game. The only one that I didn't enjoy was Dead Money, all the others were great.

I'm playing on PC here.

The freezes on the PS3 version are awful. I bought 3/6 DLCs, Dead Money ran flawlessly when I bought that one. Honest Hearts had hiccups, and froze every now and then. The real problems began when I downloaded Broken World Blues........I mean Old World Blues. I never even got to play this DLC, every time I try the frame rate drop outs, and freezing always win. As soon as you "wake up" in The Sink, after the opening slides the frame rate is gone, and it takes 10 minutes or more to walk your character to the door, which is only about 6 feet away. Then it takes another 10 minutes or more to load The Sink interior, if it even loads it at all. As soon as you exit The Sink again, after having talked to the Think Tanks, the frame rate drops out again, and or freezes. There is NOTHING to be done to fix this, and the only answer you could get out of the developers, was "Start a new character." Pathetic. I finally got an answer, after launching a nerd rage missile at his royal highness King Bergman.

On one attempt to play OWB, I did manage to make it to Higgs Village, and back to The Sink. Once I exited The Sink again, same problems started happening again. That's the most I ever got to play of OWB.

I have since then removed all New Vegas game data, and confined the game to my "gaming graveyard." For games, I probably won't play again, but can't trade in for much of anything.



You sir are a liar, there is no possible way you can claim to have no freezing or frame rate drop outs. Especially on the PS3 version.

Doh, I didn't see this had PS3 in the description, I just entered the thread from the Fallout section menu.
