I waited for the patch and like everyone did. Got it downloaded, I started a new campian. Which went fine for a short time until it froze up on me up by the grave yard. At first I thought it was just a load problem so I reboot and froze again. So Delete save and went with a new one. Same rsponce only this time by the school. Well that wasn't what I expected at all. Cleared out cache froze up again and again once while going into the saloon and anouther searching a mailbox. This game wont go back into my system ever again, new patch dont matter anymore. It has been a very big disappointment to find the game will lock up like that out of the blue. No frame rate drop to warn or anything just wham freeze. The disk is clean no finger prints scratches or burns or anything so it isnt the disk which is the problem. I do admite this is a brillant game when it works. High marks great game wonderul interviews,but it's not in the interests for the makers to be touting thier nobal work while I stare at a frozen screen before I even step out to explore. Or even before that where hours are spent doing side quests to find our saves are gone with the wind. Seems the devine understandings of patients got a test on this game so far.
Imagine my responce to the news
Offer me up a DLC? Nice offer but I think I will pass on it cause I havent been able to get past the first level up to play any addons.
When Do I give up? Right about now is when. I wont be spending any more money on the companys who put out that mess. I see the name on the box it means ignore them from here on out. It not a boycott but responce to not being able to use thier product.
You blew my trust and purchace power with New Vegas. Not only was irresponcible to the customers but refusal to openly admite to mistakes and silence on known problems on the news fronts about what they intend to do with this mess in the future. I know what is going on now that time has passed no news has come out, it cant be fixed they know it.

I haven't played this game since the beginning of January. It's too frustrating. I read the post on Feb. 7th about a new patch coming and then once again deafening silence.

I summed up those three paragraphs into one sentence.

That's completely silly actually, which developer releases even 4 patches a year as it is? Microsoft is charging developers for anything after the first two patches so publishers don't even release more. Not even VALVE!

Also, his other suggestion that consoles should be able to boot straight into the game, was available on the 360 from day one. The guy is talking out of his [censored].

I seem to remember when Xbox Live was launched, MS said that they didn't want it to be used for patches at all!

Since this topic I started seems to be getting lots of attention I thought I'd take the liberty of adding a list of issues..

1). ED-E makes the sound of the equiped Tesla-Beaton prototype and won't stop. When killed his perk remains and won't allow you to recruit Rex.
2). Stimpaks kill allies poisoned by Cazadors
3) Guns don't holster properly while moving.
4) Mini Guns have a sound malfuncion. Sounds like a jack hammer and sounds remains in the location it was fired. Includes NPC mini guns and the CZ57 Avenger
5) Cave fungus seems to not exhist. Found 2 in 150 hours and only on dead legionaries.
6) Can't enter Embassy on strip.
7) Radio and rumors opposite of what I've done or multiple outcomes are stated simultaneously.
8) Free Radical Perk has no effect on RadAway.
9) Buying cards freezes the game a lot.
10) Items double and hide in inventory menu
11) Enemies with no health in vats won't die. This is an extremely rare occurance. But, it happens often enough to mention.
12) All alcohol = Moonshine effects??
13) The enclave landed and opened fire on ME.
14) Got a schematic for .44 magnum handload but it's not on the reloading bench.
15) Knight Lorenzos voice changed on ED-E to an eastern european accent during dialoge and told me to find the patrol while the subtitles told me to go to Hidden Valley. The latter being correct as I'd already been there with Veronica.
16) Flamer stays on my back after changing weapons.
17) Shooting the plasma caster always uses ammo but doesn't allways produce a projectile.
18) Gatling laser with carbon fiber frame gains the weight back when equiped. Same with the Fat Man little boy kit..
19) Can't "turn-in" Chief Hannlon
20) I lose 5 points to DT when I equip a weapon. (might be attached to my stonewall perk... which means that doesn't work right)
21) Can't switch ammo in menu but the sound is there.
22) Got stuck in first person view once. Upon reloading over a dozen times it would only switch back and forth but always be stuck in one view or the other.
23) Guns and Energy weapons block my view in first person and often disappear entirely.


NOW JUST FOR FUN

Where is RNV? I found an Evil Knome once and can't find it again. Also, I found Eulogy Jones' Hat once on a Free Side thug.

I saw this alot too... broken quests, invisible walls, glitched/stucked radscorpions, nothing kept me away from the game when I finished the PC version. It's sad but I use to laugh a lot when some enemy gets stuck in a closing door and starts to shake, stretch and fly around... lol... it's sad cuz the game is not free and should work better, but this can be fun sometimes since it doesnt break your game, but since the pc version didn't have the dead money DLC for some time, I tryied the xbox360 version (my friend's house) to see if I should get it, and this "issue 23" is not allowing me or him to play, cuz its sooooo annoying. So, I just didn't buy the xbox version and had to wait the pc version of the DLC.

Since that friend have only the xbox version, and is having those issues even having the game updated, what's the status of this bug? Dont tell me to switch to third person and switch back to first person view, I'm more interested in a real fix from the developers, not some workaround, cuz it svcks so much to see the weapon being raised over the character's head, disappearing and blocking the fov, that It just makes the game not fun... he is since the release waiting for the day he could play the game like it should be playied.

Is there something to fix that and i'm not aware?

ty and sorry about my english.

Fallout:The best damned RPG ever made, possibly a perfect experience too, riddled with minor bugs that annoy you to no end(Avenger Minigun) to hundreds of game breaking errors, it makes this experience terrible.

If people want to Rip New Vegas for being a lousy experience, that could be from a wide spectrum of things, such as they just don't like the genre, but when multiple game breaking things happen, to multiple people, it just becomes a sad reality.

i just signed up for this to say what you just been saying i aggree with everything why should the people who paid for this game puts hrs into it just to find out its completely messed up this will only be my 3rd time starting a new game 1st time was that everything in the game wanted to kill me no idea what happend was working for the ncr at the time only random ncr men would start fighting me over nothing wtf!?!?. 2nd well could maybe keep this save but want to help rex out but doc henry isnt one for showing up at all, really how can you make a game where key characters dont load up. So maybe 3rd time lucky? who knows. BUT I HOPE TO GOD THE DONT MESS UP SKYRIM.
