Is it me or this is the least buggy launch Bethesda has ever performed in ages?

I can't recall any bugs happening to me except for the occasional clipping.

Also,for some reason this game on ultra runs far smoother than skyrim on ultra on my pc.I get higher fps and much less stutter.This baffles me.

agreed the game is very stable i can alt tab freely with out worry of crashing , so far ive only had 2 really annoying bugs but i can see beth patching em soon.

Well I've went through 24 hours gameplay without a crash, major glitch or bug.......which after Fallout 3 I'd consider a minor miracle.

Minus the PC gamers who are complaining about the graphics.

Is the PC version of Fallout 4 really that well optimized? Alt tabbing causes no crashes? Or to stay in a black screen anywhere from forever to five minutes? Is alt tabbing instantaneously?

-also,in 40 hours of gameplay I never crashed.Not even once.And mind you I play on pc with a gtx 680,not terrible,but far from the best.

Only bug I recall is the invisible weapons one.Also,I use fast travel as rarely as I can,(Only allow myself to fast travel from and to my settlements),and i never had a cell loading/streaming crash.

Yeah,it just works.

As our flawed prophet Todd would say.

Also,as a person who used a lot of graphics mods in the past,I understand why the graphics are far from the best.In a game with sooo much going on around you all the time,memory is important,and filling your memory with useless 80 k textures and fancy post processing would not work.

That said,I like the graphics.

No cell loading, streaming crashes either?

Someone on neogaf.com I read put uExterior Cell Buffer=288 and even up to 300 and had absolutely no crashes or FPS drops with a Nvidia GTX 980ti and 8GB's of RAM on a 4 core AMD processor.

My savegame was completely corrupted everytime i went into certain areas my game crashed. Had to start a new game, 40 hours wasted.

So for me it was the buggiest start of a bethesda game so far. Never had to restart from the beginning in any other game before.

So far, I have been pleasantly surprised with the stability and relatively small number of problems. I've encountered a few bugs, but they have, as yet, not been major.

This is the firt time in a while that my save every 5 minutes OCD was in response to the game being challenging and not because of the constant fear of CTDs.

That is obviously pretty upsetting.

care to tell us the faulty location?

Absolutely fantastic! Bethesda Game Studios employees are getting better at developing the PC versions of their video games.

It should also be that the PC version of Fallout 4 runs on a 64-bit .exe and DirectX 11 as some PC gamers and Gstaff has said.

DirectX 11's rendering process is way better than DirectX 9.0c's.

I've yet to play it but I can say without reservations that this is the least post launch complaints I've ever seen on this forum. The hardware and software sections have fewer posts than ever post release. With under 200 threads in both PS4 and XB1 H&S sections and just over a thousand in the PC section. I've never seen that few before. And considering some of them are just not knowing where to look for lost companions and how to proceed with a quest, it's really fewer. Then there are the ones that post a thread when there is already an open topic about it. And the fact that a few have already been patched.

So yes, in my opinion it must mean it's a much more stable game. I can't wait to play it.

Same here, not a single crash...There are some stuttering issues and the usual stuff. But overall pretty solid...

It seems stable enough, and I've not seen any glitches. There's a lot of stuff that points to moronic design decisions, but not actual glitches.

I play on the PC (I'll never own a console), no glitches, bugs, crashes, etc. And all settings on highest. I have an i7, 32 gb ram, 680 GTX, standard platter HD. Honestly, I don't understand why people think something is wrong with the game on the PC.

Best game I've had in a very long time. THANKS BETHESDA!

I would have said the same until today where it just started crashing every 5-10 minutes for some reason...

Keeps crashing and saying something about the drivers/graphics card crashing and restoring itself and sometimes it completely crash my screen/computer where I still hear other stuff[like music and a stream if I'm watching one] but the screen just goes off and can't be turned on and then I have to restart the computer...

Agreed. Also with the constant auto saving and coming patches it's something I won't ever really worry about. It feels good to just play and not worry about my game freezing.

If the Screen freezes but you can still hear stuff going on in the background(use keys and see if sounds happen),the problem is likely to be fould in the GPU/GPU driver departement.

The game is very stable on pc. I only had one glitch where the gun would disappear from my hands. I could still shoot, but no gun was visible. I quickly fixed this by saving and reloading.

Not exactly freezes, it just turns off... as in monitor goes dark black and the LED that is either orange/blue depending if the monitor is on goes orange as if the computer is turned off.

But I still hear stuff(music, streams, skype calls) going on in the background except for fallout which probably crashed along with the monitor...

Also this started happening ever since I updated drivers to latest ones today in the morning before playing fallout, it made the performance better but keeps crashing every 5 to 10 minutes and like I said sometimes also crashes my monitor.

I tried uninstalling the new drivers and installing an older one [NVIDIA 355.60] but it didn't fix it.

No crashes yet. Only bug i've encountered was a door that did nothing when open, but could be walked through. And I think the stated spec are higher than what you really need. I got it to run just fine on my older PCwith a radeon 6870. Runs despite specs saying you need a 2 gig card.

Only things I've encountered, seems when talking to preston at certain points, he and the PC just stand there for like 5 seconds, then resume dialogue. That and all of my sanctuary settlers spawning on the roof of the house with the workbench.

I've run into one or two hitches - sometimes my character and the NPC just stand there gazing into each others' eyes at the end of a conversation for an odd amount of time, and subtitles get a little wonky sometimes.

But nothing major as of yet. It's actually running surprisingly smooth on my PC. I was worried my rig was starting to get a little bit dated, but I'm getting really solid performance at Ultra Settings thus far (I'll have to see what it runs like in particularly dense areas.)

Like Summer said - with every Bethesda game release we moderators expect a bevy of the usual "worst game ever!" threads. Especially immediately after launch. Obviously people are experiencing valid issues and it wouldn't be a BGS game if there weren't some bugs to iron out at launch. But this is much more chill than Skyrim's release (was not a fan of the PS3 Skyrim Issues section...)

No bugs, no crashes, no real glitches outside of getting stuck in the geometry one time (and managed to get myself out of that), in over 20 hours of gameplay.
