Poll re bugs and glitches

Some of those poll questions are a tad imprecise. Like 'fixing' fallout 4. In what way?

Well it is kind of to be expected t hat there will be glitches and bugs with new dlcs, that's just the way that expanding software is. There is not one somewhat sophisticated program out there that does not have bugs or glitches in some way, shape or form. They may not be as apparent as they are in other pieces of software, but they do exist. Especially when you want to create a somewhat open sandbox for players to interact with, there is just no way to find and fix all issues that can possibly come up.

That's why I find that 3rd question to be kind of useless, at what point would you consider the game to be "fixed"? For reference, even those community fixes that were introduced to older BGS games did create new issues, maybe less noticeable, but they were there.

Yes, there are issues in the game that should not be there and that need fixing, but neither will you be able to fix everything there is nor will those fixes ever be able to leave the game without any issue whatsoever. There are just way too many things interacting with each other in something as complex as a modern video game to really be able to not have issues of some kind. Plus, as mentioned above, fixes most likely create other issues in another area.

Also, "fixing" the game before adding new content would not really a good idea anyway, because that new content will have to be integrated into the games' systems aswell, causing more issues. You'd just waste time, doing the same work twice.

Anyway, on the other questions:

1) Well, kind of answered that already, yes, they will add some glitches and bugs, you may notice them, or not.

2) Maybe, maybe WITH the DLC.

4) Would certainly be helpful for the community. But again, it probably wouldn't really be a good business decision. Once they did it, people would expect them to fix all of them, and that might just not be possible or feasible. So, I'm not really sure on this one, but I think not... Pretty sure that by reading the forums they do have an idea of what kind of glitches and bugs are out there and they are working to fix as many of them as they can afford (obviously timewise, not moneywise...).

1. Yes


2. No.

3. Define Fix Fallout 4 because that's an ambiguous comment?

4. This isn't entirely necessary, fallout sites list all known bugs on these games so it's probably not necessary.
