Are people really bantering back and forth about whether or not this game is playable?
-Freeze every 20 minutes or so with all default settings.
-Endlessly bugged quests, either not completeable, or endlessly repeatable, or only completable 1 way.
-Faction bugs that will cause all Quest givers of a certain faction to go hostile towards you, regardless of your reputation.
-Thousands of things for whatever reason you get stuck on unable to move, this includes invisible things you cannot see...
-Mobs able to fall threw the game and kill you without you being able to target them,
-Vats for whatever reason not working.
-Vats slow down bug where you move slower, camera moves slower, your not in vats, but the game runs as if you where,
enemies can still hurt you, and trying to defend yourself only results in out of ammo clicks.(even with melee weapons).
-For whatever reason my guy turning into string cheese.(literally...)
-Weapon scope showing the hacking computer terminal..... really.....
-Items falling threw the ground, unable to reach them... sometimes these are important things.
-me falling threw the ground....
-my companions falling threw the ground.
-Companions randomly dieing, or worse yet, actually leaving you, going off on their own, and later you get the "***** has died message".
-For some reason my Vats perks only work sometimes... they don't increase my chance to hit all the time, and that is with testing.
(testing at multiple ranges, multiple weapons, and multiple levels i've taken perk)
-Computer hack terminal attempts with bugged keywords, sometimes theres been no right answer, that is trying logically doing the mini game
and actually putting thought into finding the word. Posted it before, but i've once found, Leaders 4/6 correct, then I choose Dealers 2/6 correct heh.
-Even without the "terrible terrible your gonna die mode" vats bug above, sometimes your weapon fails to shoot, and just results in an out of ammo click
(i've found a quick reload, or if you have a melee weapon and your getting the out of ammo click(yes indeed), go into pip boy, equip something, then equip
your melee weapon back..
thats just to name afew man... most of these encountered on my first, day or first few hours in game... I don't buy the freeze being a overheating issue, my ps3 has been off all day,
10 bucks says i can turn it on, with all default settings, using vats listening to the radio ect.(play the game as intended), i'll freeze before I get threw the tutorial quest on a new character.
Sometimes these freezes are back to back, freeze, hard reset, load up, walk threw the door, freeze... hard reset... load back up, play long enouph to get out of the door, and fast travel to a new
location... freeze........... Load back up, at the new location, turn around start to walk out of town.. stuck on the gate... can't get off.... eh... load back in. Fast travel to a new location, some random npc
runs up to me to initiate dialogue, before the text appears, staring at his face.. freeze..... (thats about as accurate a review on my gameplay experience that I can give.) Kudos to you guys without problems,
wish I was one, but don't scoff about people claiming the game is unplayable... if your persistant, don't care about your console dieing from the wear and tear, you can trudge threw this game.
But thats about all alot of us can do.
