spindoctor Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 ^^ All the best Spinny. May the disappointment not outweigh the guilt of having spent those dinari on a game you were bound to hate. sounds like i can't win eh 'bound to hate' is not accurate. i just don't like the developer, and so far it seems their proven incompetence is showing up again in this effort. on the bright side, the mod community for these games is massive and soon enough you'll be able to find mods to change and fix almost anything you don't like about the game. heck, the nvidia performance fix was found by the community within 2 days of it's release... who knows when obsidian would have been able to solve it. things like that give me hope, and what other choice do i have... the money is already spent i have to say, i'm a bit surprised you haven't bought the game. going with the console version this time? or just not interested?

spindoctor Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) I would like to finish Fallout 3 first. pfft... you're not a real gamer if you don't have a serious backlog and if you do, then what's one more game added to the list? i personally haven't touched the fo3 dlc either, but here i am, waiting on new vegas. seriously though, if you're planning on getting it, might as well go ahead and do it now. will be fun if a bunch of us are playing the game together and we can talk about it Edited October 21, 2010 by spindoctor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daedalus Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 http://twitter.com/bitmobshoe Dan Hsu has some very bad news about how Bethesda is handling Fallout New Vegas reviews. Chances are it was Gamespot, which btw gave it a 7.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchneideR Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) Played the PC version just now. Runs smoothly on my lappy on Ultra High Settings. I am really glad I get to play Fallout again. When I completed Fallout 3 I was sad thinking I wont get to play this awesome game again... Dint encounter any of the bugs mentioned. Perhaps that's because there is a big a*s 200 mb patch on steam for it. Will be playing more this weekend...

Bulovski Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 even me playing on 1GB Nvidia Cuda ..not highest but mid-high is pretty good What is your card model number? What does mid-high mean since there's medium and high and then quality settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulovski Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 ^^ bulovski Let me check again. Played a bit - damn game stutters a bit, throws up artefacts - but looks very very nice. I don't like this version of the aptitude test. And all over, the humour seems missing somehow. Sunny Smiles = Moira without the accent.

spindoctor Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 the foliage pop in is annoying, even when the distance slider is maxed out. couple of interesting mods... http://newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34805 this increases the run speed of the player. i don't mind running around exploring the vast wasteland, i just don't want to be slow while doing it http://newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34748 this gives you a home in goodsprings, which is especially useful for me since i'm playing hardcore. from what i hear, there is no megaton style place in the game where you get a home shortly after starting the game, so this should be handy.

No house - that sucks. The run speed is also irritating - it seems ok in the house, but outside it's just sucky. Now that I've reached office time to print the manual.

spindoctor Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) a friend told me that you do get a house on the strip eventually, but he also said that it took him over 10 hours to get there. currently debating whether to order this - http://www.flipkart.com/fallout-new-vegas-prima-games-book-0307469948 Edited October 22, 2010 by spindoctor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
