I am getting very angry with all the Bugs in this game & they appear to be doing nothing about the problems, In over 30 years of game play I've never played a game that is as buggy as this one.
They quote "there is no such thing as a bug free program", A game crashing or seizing after an hour or two of game play is acceptable, not as in new vegas every few minutes & at times every few seconds.
If Fallout 3 had been anywhere near half as buugy as new vegas then I would not have even contemplated wasting my money purchasing new vegas, & I will not be purchasing any other Fallout or games from Bethesda until I am sure that the game will run properly.
I hope others will take this stance, then maybe they will ensure that game releases are playable before release, as if no one will purchase their games they will have to improve their testing.

It's a pain. It's interesting that in all my Steam cache checks there has always been a bad file. I run the cache check a lot.

There are Hardware and Software forums for problems such as this - please post in the relevant one.

I am going to close this to save the "my game gives no problems" posts that inevitably crop up.
