[Official] Fallout New Vegas


Recommended Posts

I bought it today, it crashed, corrupted my save.. so now I'll have to start over again. :[

One thing I have noticed is the difficulty. You tend to get bombarded with enemies from an opposite faction and it's pretty hard to kill them all. :[

So I've been reading about you guys complaining about Fallout bugs, but never really understood what it was all about since I've never (on both F3 and NV) experienced them......Till today...

Bug 1

Bug2

Game freezes during loading (which forces me to restart my xbox)

Nothing that a simple load or restart won't fix but it get a tad annoying when it happens every time you play the game.

I love how easy it is to get distracted and lost away in side quests and exploring in these types of games. I have been able to go to the vegas strip for 2-3 days now and still have yet to set foot on the strip and continue on with the main story. I really want to go to the strip and do some of the achievements but Im so caught up in exploring all the undiscovered locations and finding loot. Great game content wise. Performance wise like many have already stated, buggy as hell. I have had a few game lock-ups, VATS not activating sometimes, NPCs stuck in level geometry, etc. Obsidian should have put more working into fixing some of the more serious flaws with the engine. Hopefully for the next Fallout/Elder Scrolls game they will bang out a brand new game engine with a lot less bugs.

Other than that I love the game. I am probably sitting around 15+ hours played so far and still have a bunch of the wasteland to explore and quests to complete. Like its predecessor Fallout 3, New Vegas has be busy looting like crazy, just to makes some caps and craft some goodies.

Well I lost my companion, they were there one minute and gone the next, lol.

And I went searching and ended up getting raped by a bug and killed in 2 hits, there is something peculiar with this games difficulty, it feels like they spruced up the hit points and defense of everything just because they can, the bits where I have died I was on Very Easy because I nearly got killed just before by some other seemingly easy beastie.

I told my dog to wait for me at Goodsprings. I then started exploring caves and buildings and so forth, I was sneaky-killing some zombies when my dog just strolls around the corner, walks up to me and starts barking. Stupid dog.

I finished the main story last night. Quality ending,

I was surprised at how many of the seemingly random quests it references at the end. Unlike Fallout 3, where there were like four things. It's a pity you can't continue after killing the Legion dude, because he has not only an awesome sword but an amazing helmet.

I think now I might start a Legion character and rape and pillage me some NCR.

Ok, try this:

Add this to the end of [Display]:

fDefaultWorldFOV=90.0

Try another values and set the one that is better for you.

Still no change :/

Maybe the game locks it?

I started playing it on the weekend and love it so far. I am about to head off to Cottonwood Cove in search of a snipers nest that apparently has a good sniper rifle in a locked chest. Bring on the Legion, I am already hated by them ;)

Me too - if you have Boone you pretty much have to hate the Legion because regardless of your setting Passive/Aggressive he will kill them on sight :/

Still no change :/

What file are you editing? You suppose to edit FalloutPrefs.ini

I got mine edited to "fDefaultFOV=85.0000", "fPipboy1stPersonFOV=58.0" and "fDefault1stPersonFOV=70.0000" and this is how it looks like:

edit: Never mind. Just noticed you aren't happy with the results, and not not seeing any.

I have heard that if he attacks them and you do not attack them back, they will not attack you (despite being hostile) and you will not lose faction with them, meaning you could drop him at a later time and go to their side. But, I haven't gotten that far so I cannot test it out.

As for the Deathclaws, I do not think they jumped, but they had some sort of dash attack where from medium range they could close the game and hit you very quickly. So maybe they replaced that with a leap attack?

I remember Deathclaws leaping at you, with their lunge attack.

They were never a problem for me in F3, I always ended up with the Gauss Rifle that did loads of damage (One shot kill everything but Overlords, Albino Radscorpions, etc.) with high enough stats + perks.

Well,

I started a new game, decided to explore a bit instead of just running from Quest Marker to Quest Marker. It was quite irritating at first, running into Super Mutants at Level 3 didn't really help me explore. *laughs*

It's definitely not as balanced as Fallout 3, and the exploration is limited too.. I've run into a few invisible walls which was annoying for me, but still.

I think it's a great game, it's not worth what I paid for it, but I won't moan about it. I'll probably never discover everything it has to offer, so I guess the quantity is there. :3 Just not sure about the quality yet.

Do like using companions this time around though - couldn't stand them in F3, always felt they were a bit useless. I'm packing Boone and Rex at the moment. D:

I really wish they would address teh save game issue in FO. I want to do that one quest, but cannot so I am doing other things. Annoying as hell that company produces a game with so many issues.

I heard something about a issue that corrupts your saves. Do you have any details on that?

I didn't had this issue. Didn't it fixed the problem for you?

That for the PC or XBOX? I have an XBOX

On the 360, if you complete the quest "Come Fly Away With Me" every saved game after becomes corrupted. You try to continue and the load freezes the XBOX. You try and LOAD, and you get an error about the DLC content being missing and you cannot load the game.

Oh, i tough you had on PC, you didn't mention your platform. :/

Now i get it, but on their blog it says they're working on the problem.

I completed the quest a few days ago and everything is fine with my saved games. Does this happen to select people or a game wide bug?

AHH this game sucks, constant freezing, glitching, quest glitches, Very very poor frame rate, you name it i have experienced it. Now this crazy chick at hoover dam wants me to kill everyone at the brotherhood after i have befriended them (which sucks) Caesars and his legion is dead as i took care of all them suckers early on, killed Mr. house and Big Sal cause of the conflicting (For The Republic, 2) quest glitch which wouldnt let me continue the game, so now i'm really upset.:angry:

Its happening to a lot of people. Do you have a XBOX 360? Did you download the DLC that comes with the game?

Yeah I'm running it on my xbox with the dlc I received from game stop. The only thing is that I didn't install the content till I got through a few missions. (Internet issues)

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.
