Question to everyone...

Quite simply: Yes, no, and no.

Despite the bugs, which for the most part really aren't that bad anymore and are easily avoidable, Fallout has uniquely amazing and amazingly unique game play. (To me at least.) So this does not affect my status as a player or future patron of Bethesda games, whatsoever.

Like I'm not gonna get Elder Scrolls V. Ha ha you're funny.

Even with all the glitches, the game is still great.

Sure as a consumer, payin 60$ for a slightly faulty product svcks. But as a fan I'm so glad to play the game , I could care less. Sadly I'd rather pay 60$ for a slighty busted FNV than no FNV. But that's really devoted fan talk.

Do the glitches still piss me off, sure they do. But hey, all games got em'.

I would buy the next fallout game or even a TES game in a heart beat without thinking. Mainly because I usually get it on the 360 which is usually less buggy than computers and because the games have such a high quality gameplay. Story telling and gameplay features of beths games are what keep on pulling me back in and will probably continue doing so.
Thier games also don't feel insulting like today's FPS which are like, "Look at the pretty graphics, go shoot those people and play multiplayer till we make our next game. Oh look zombies!" which are dominanting the markets.

After the farce with Oblivion, I resolved to wait a month or so after release before buying any Bethesda games. That's been pretty much vindicated, I think. Not that I've bought any Bethesda games (well, WET, but that doesn't count) since Oblivion - too busy - but I think the point remains valid.

What, people losing faith in Bethesda because of bugs in one of their games?
Obviously you must've not played Arena and Daggerfall....

I would be more worried if there weren't any, since that would mean they've probably ditched sandbox RPG games.

They may be buggy, but in my opinion they are amongst the best games ever made and for that reason alone I will buy them.

I never played the Fallout Series much, But Im a huge Elder Scrolls Fan

And I guess its really hard to check for bugs in such an expansive Game. So I don't blame Bethesda too much for the occasional glitch.

Well I didn't get Fallout NV but I did get Fallout 3. While the crashing bug was annoying It didn't really hinder me much because of the autosave function. The rest of the bugs were pretty insignificant. Ones like people fusing into walls/floors don't bother me. They made me smile if anything. I will get TES V but I would have to pump my computer full of steroids first, Bethesda games are famous for being very high end in graphics. When I first got Oblivion my computer at the time could barely manage the lowest settings.

My question too all fallout fan`s and gamer`s is.... "Would you ever buy Bethesda`s game`s ever again after these`s terrible glitches & Bugs in FNV"?,And dose it make you think twice about buying the next Bethesda game or fallout game when it`s released?....And do you think the Bethesda game`s has lost it`s faith with gamer`s? Thanks all :).


No comment on the grammar lol.

Anyway.


"Would you ever buy Bethesda`s game`s ever again after these`s terrible glitches & Bugs in FNV"?


What bad glitches and bugs? I had 0 on the PC. Maxed the graphics, played for 12-14 hours at a time and logged one complete play and three new plays in 79 hours. (first play finished at 60 hours or so)
I can think of maybe two crashes, and no bugs. I just needed a break from the game and ended up hooked on others.
(Civ5, Alpha protocol, Borderlands)

I also have great luck out of.
Morrowind Xbox/Pc
Oblivion Xbox/Pc
Fallout 3
Fallout N.V.


does it make you think twice about buying the next Bethesda game? or fallout game when it`s released?

No.
No.

And do you think the Bethesda game`s has lost it`s faith with gamer`s?


Only if you are extremely short sighted, and have no patience.
Yes, some people had problems, but I think most of it was hardware related. Be it bad drivers or such on the PC or a failing console.


Most people who throw a fit and say they will never buy another beth soft game ever will run right out and buy the next one.


I personally can not wait for the Next Elder Scrolls, and fallout game. I even plan on going back and playing morrowind and Oblivion again at some point when I get the time.

And finishing N.V again a time or two more, but other games are holding me.

Rumors are that the Elder Scrolls 5 will run on a brand new engine, made by Bethesda for open world games.
Of course, I'm gonna look at the reviews before buying, but chances are that next Bethesda games will run on
a brand new engine. Now let's hope bugs will disappear and that graphics will improve.

Dont bet on it, new engine + huge game = way more bugs and such

I actually do not understand what people are complaining about. Am I the only person in the world who hasn't had any bugs with New Vegas? I've played something like 150 hours already, not a single crash or game breaking glitch...


I had no issues.


Because of how I feel spat in the face from Firaxis and 2K, I will never ever buy a new game on launch day, the exception is Bethesda. As sad as it is, I expect a buggy product from Bethesda. I also expect a beautiful rich, openended game from them as well. So while I [censored] and complain about products being released early and patched later, Bethesda is the exception. I love TES so much that I will get it on launch day if I have the money. I bought New Vegas on launch day, and I don't regret it. Am I a bit disappointed with it? Yes, but I still love NV and I am eagerly waiting for TES V.

Any other game that is not Fallout series or TES series, I will wait and not buy on launch day. I will wait 6 months or wait till it's a gift given to me.

Sounds like a angry Civ5 person. Once again, 0 issues with Civ5 and I love the game too!


I think on Bethesda games, they should put on Rule #1 on the back of the boxes. Doesn't matter if it's PC or console.

Save, save, save and save some more.

I advise you to never play Icewind dale I or II ever, or games like it.
Why?
This is what I do.
Going to rest? Save
After resting? Save
Before I change areas? Save.
After each fight? Save.

I bet I saved the game at least 3-5 times every 15-20 minutes.
My first N.V play I had 89 saves in 60 hours.

You don't put an apostrophe before every 's' for Christ's sake.

Anyway, I don't really experience bugs with Beth's games, but then again I never buy games on release.

Well It`s good too see Everyone`s opinion.No matter if it`s good or bad feedback.I have made my last thought on Bethesda and NV....And that is,I will still buy Bethesda games in the future.But will listen too the forums feedback first.Before making the next step too buy the game.As with FNV i`m going too trade it in Saturday and get something else..NV-patch is wasting my time waiting for the fix.I am NOT going too [censored] wait for a silly patch that would probably do [censored] all too fix it! Thanks all for you`r feed back.Let`s hope next Fallout is NOT RUBBISH LIKE NV!!! :) Vips.

Having asked for opinions the OP has made a decision on what to do. I guess this can be closed now.
