admission of guilt

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 9:26 am

i for one would like to see Bethesda and Obsidian man up and say they released the game too early. there is no possible way that the testers and developers missed ALL of these game breaking errors and glitches. a texture glitch here and there is expected, but errors that thousands of ppl are all getting that is making the game absolutely unplayable is unexectable. this isnt some indie release, this is a Fallout title by a well known, and well respected publisher/developer. when you are an industry leader in game software you owe it to your loyal fans to not break their trust. im sad to say, they did. when companies make mistakes of this magnitude they do product recalls. i know thats not gonna happen with this game, but do something to the like. put out an offer for ppl that are suffering thru this mess. its the end user that suffers here. the distributers make their money regardless. if you bought it for PC, you're screwed, you're not getting your money back. if you bought it for PS3/xbox you can return it to gamestop, but not for the original price. plus they already put the used sale buy back into account when they price the new game. even if you return it for a used buy back, they still make money. with releases like Brink and Hunted on the horizon, making your customers happy is pretty important. dont become another Infinity Ward.

I for one think they didn't beta test the game at all. Or even test the patch to see if it helps.

I agree i dont think they beta tested this game at all as well.What they did was released it and let there paying customers beta test it.And as for the patch what a joke make my game worse not better.

I wonder if it is really worth it; releasing like this or if ultimately it will just lower the sales on their future products.

The problem is ALL THEIR F'ING GAME ARE LIKE THIS... Go see the threads for oblivion or Fallout3. They all crash and are LOADED with bugs. (Sigh) I'm gonna go play Battle Field 2 now.

I was going to buy this game, but I guess I can just forget it now. I was hopeing they would of learn from past mistakes, but it was just a disapointment. Any fueture game sells will now be down by one and lets say I do give in and buy it, it will be after a price drop and a used copy, so they still pretty much lose that one sell.

idk, ive played both FO3 and Oblivion on both PS3 and PC. i dont recall having any of these issues. TBH, i can deal with a lot of them. the 2 things i cant deal with is the constant pauses on travel, and the VATS delay. those are game breakers for me. i didnt experience either of those in FO3 nor the travel pause issue in Oblivion.
