I have two issues to report;

First Issue: I'm doing the mission for Veronica for the Pulse Gun inside Vault 34 and can't complete because the game gets so lagged when I enter the overseers room that I can't defeat him and the other 3 ghouls that are triggered once you enter his room. I had one lucky time where I was able to kill all 4 ghouls, but then before I had a chance to save the game had a nice hard freeze. The problem is that if I unload a full clip of ammo against any of them I reload the weapon and then once it's done reloading I can't do anything. I can't fire, switch weapons, enter V.A.T.S., use a stimpack on myself, talk to my companions to have them use a stimpack, NOTHING AT ALL. I think because it just gets so bogged down or something. I almost threw my controller at the wall from getting so frustrated of trying probably 20-some-odd times within 15 minutes since I kept having to reload so quickly since I couldn't fight back.

The second issue: It seems as though this is a constant struggle that I am having (not just during high profile battles) I could be fighting just a single enemy and the fire button doesn't seem to react, I have to press it a 2-4 times just to get my weapon to "fire" also the same thing happens within the pipboy, options menu, and speech trees. I have to press the button a few times for it to register. Before any of you say it's my controller, it does it with all 5 controllers that I have, and they all work perfectly fine with other games.

Here's my first serious companion related glitch. After playing half the game with Boone and ED-E I want to recruit someone else so I let ED-E go(why send the expert sniper away right?). After doing so I go to recruit Gannon and he says basically summed up "three's a crowd". What!? So I fast travel back to Primm find ED-E, kill him, and return to Gannon and I get the same response "three's a crowd". So I reload, fast travel to Primm, make ED-D a companion, kill him, return to Gannon and I get the same response again. I reload again, fast travel to Primm (finding a pattern yet?), make ED-D my companion, tell Boone to wait, and go out into the wastes and let some raiders kill ED-D. ED-D is dead (this time not by my hand), so I go back to Gannon and guess what? I still can't recruit him. Each time ED-D was my companion and died the game never informed me "ED-D has died." and I still have the Enhanced Sensors perk from when ED-D is a companion, but ED-D is dead.

Aside from the game hard crashing and rebooting back to the XMB this is the only other serious glitch I've had with this game.

Another problem I've had that is companion related is when I use my NCR Emergency radio to call for a Ranger. The Ranger never fast travels and when I fire my sniper rifle to take out distant targets the Ranger runs away. And sometimes while my companions and I are engaging enemies the Ranger either runs away or runs toward the enemy and doesn't do a thing. So far this has only happened with the Ranger, I haven't used a NRC Trooper yet and may give that a try instead of using a Ranger.

I am sorry if post something that might have been posted already. With that i have two problems.

First is the followers stop following glitch that i been seeing around.

the other is a glitch that i have seen less of. I am having trouble with mission. (No it is not that i have trouble completing them.) I have trouble as in they are glitched. The two main missions which this happened at was "my kind of town" and "restoring Hope." In my kind of town I cant get none of the targets to become the new sheriff they just keep repeating the line they say when your close to them. (I cant talk to them.) and in Restoring hope I cant help none of the doctors patients for some reason. (and if i refuse to help the doctor for some reason i fail the mission.)

If anybody can help me with my problems i appreciate it. If not well i hope that Bethesda reads this so they can patch it up.

I apologize if this has been posted before but it's very troublesome for me. I had veronica as a follower and I went to go into hidden bunker, only once I got inside she had disappeared. I tried going in and out, reloading, fast traveling, nothing. It's my first play-through and I'm very picky about being able to do every quest I can, so I really would like to fix this. My next plan is to wait until I can get myself to 100 lockpick and pick the door in case she's stuck behind it or something. Also, I cannot recruit another follower, so according to the game she's still there.

Another problem I've been having is absolute horrendous lag when loading and moving around inside the Crimson Caravan. It takes me about ten to fifteen minutes to get from the east entrance to the management office.

I've been having some minor problems with gamefreeze every now and then and I have to restart the PS3.
Also, I got stuck in a rock once

but that's about it for me other than a few instances of broken questline.

Oh, and I made the silly mistake of modding my Weathered 10mm with a silencer and saving before I pulled it out. Now it's just a giant white square with a red ! which blocks my vision in 1st person. I loved that 10mm, but I should have used my brain and I'm just wondering
Is this the same with all unique weapons?

My issues have been posted above. I empathize with those of you having worse ones.

If this were not an entertainment media product, there would be recalls. Perhaps we need a class action lawsuit to get our money back for this piece of garbage.

They are reading this thread and laughing, you know. They already have the money.
