Great game... hard to play due to technical difficulties... (probably would have been better as just DLC for fallout 3, just to keep the glitches to a minimum)
bug 1)
weathered pistol with laser sight... gun disappears, replaced by obnoxious red square with white explanation point on it...
bug 2)
NCR camp outside of Primm when you pick up the ncr armor from inside the storage tent it sometimes shows up as multiple stacked in your inventory, attempting to drop, wear or repair almost always freezes the game...
bug 3)
in freeside the kids that chase the rat... if you kill the rat, the kids will try to loot the rats corpse, several times i have seen the kids sliding around on their knees acting as if they are looting the rat...
bug 4)
companion achievement "the gangs all here" is definitely broken... i have met and teamed up all available companions, but the achievement stays incomplete... (also i cannot send them to the lucky 38 anymore... started out that i could... but that option then just kinda disappeared... it was the best option for the ones you didn't wanna bring with you...)
bug 5)
at vault 11 when you swim through the underwater rooms, your companion will almost always get stuck in the ceiling somehow...(there is a place you can swim up for air and you can see your companion's arm like pacing back and forth just outside of the room... as if trapped in the ceiling), and you have to completely leave the vault for them to come back...
bug 6)
if you steal the Van Graff combat armor from the chest outside silver rush and mod the plasma riffle you get to keep it... permanently, and actually cant remove it from your inventory until after completing the van graff story line when they give you the armor... which neatly stacks on the one you have, freezing the game when you try to remove, drop or repair the armor...
bug 7)
invisible walls on the mountains... (im guessing it a glitch cause besides the fact that you can roam freely in fallout 3 you don't just run into nothing and have to stop... doesn't make any sense...)
bug 8/9)
by the Helios One power station... south i think (noticed when leaving gibson junkyard to go to helios one) there is a section of rocks on the landscape that just kinda hovers... and you can walk right through it...
south of Primm when heading towards the dry lake bed... there is a floating bush on the hillside...
there are lots of other locations that this same phenomenon happens... with other types of foliage or rocks...
bug 10)
when leaving items in ed-e inventory during his run in the lorenzo from the hidden valley brotherhood of steel bunker, he is returned to primm with an empty inventory... (kinda implies they just kinda swapped him out for a flash new one... had to ask myself "wow... where's the love???")
bug 11)
when doing the missions for Diane and jack (Great Khans), if you bring a companion to vault 3... they are attacked or attack even after you have completed the speech challenge...
bug 12)
Cass's Quest "heartache by the number" does not end until you turn her over to the Vangraffs... it just stays active... even after all the steps are complete...
bug 13)
if you travel to the botherhood of steal safehouse, then head west to the Train tunnels, after picking the very hard lock on the door, there is a section inside of the tunnel with a door and a small room up some stairs... although when you try to walk up the stairs into the room you fall through the map and end up like instantly standing at either end of the tunnel, or you fall through the map a few times then the game freezes... also you can walk through the wall directly across from the small room and see... um... the matrix? really lame for a place you need 100 lockpick skill to access...
bug 14/15)
after teaming up with the guys in the old church basemant in Camp Searchlight you raid the police station... then go to raid the fire station, quest npc is almost always instantly killed by the giant scorpion waiting on the ground floor, and half of the time the scorpion is stuck in either the walls, floor, or ceiling...
also there is another glitch located in the same town... when you meet local ncr troop you asked to retrieve the dogtags of the ncr ghouls... well not all of them have dog tags... and im guessing you supposed to find 10... there are only 9.... and have have walked through every square inch of that town, the airport, and the goldmine... kinda thinking the 10th one is missing or maybe the body fell through the map or something...
bug 16)
after getting the new ed-e sometimes when traveling into the hunters farm house, ed-e has antennas and a laser barrel that just kinda float freely around him... not attached... also happens to companion's weapons(just located in the wrong spot, floating freely or passing through the character as if mortally impaled by their weapon...)
bug 17)
jumped over a road center divider(or something else about the same height) and froze my game... (happens a lot... not entirely sure if the jump caused it....)
bug 18)
when you try to bring up vats(mid combat) while reloading sometimes you target the air... like nothing appears to be targeted.... but vats acts like there is... sometimes freezes the game if you try to change your selection to a real target....
bug 19)
you can overfill your companion sometimes... not sure about the exact combination of items that causes it... but i think it has something to do with filing up the companion then adding it such small quantities of ammo that they register as less than 1 lbs..... so you can continue doing this until you have like almost everything on your companion...
bug 20)
when you do the brotherhood of steel missions (the ones from the hidden valley bunker) you are sent out to find the 2 pairs of power armor wearing paladins and the single paladin (sent to Nellis AFB), if you find them before you officially start the quest... there are normal numbers of bodies... if you find them after you start the quest you normally only find the one with the holotape... the other body just kinda isn't anywhere to be found...
20 ideas on things to add to the fix list... kinda makes the game really hard to want to play... SO... let's get on that making and releasing that patch please! GOODLUCK!
