its not just the path or the dlc..for me its the way they have handled the whole thing..theres doing things the right way and then there doing things the way they did it..released a broken game and never once said he we screwed up or were sorry for any inconvenience caused by the game..nothing at all to explain what happened nothing at all to even acknowledge theres a problem.. all i hear is we want more of your money..i dont believe they deserve any more of our money..

and another thing as a consumer...a consumer who spent over 80 bucks for this game i have every right to whine cry and complain if i feel unsatisfied with the product i purchased..

They still havent patched it. When are they gonna fix the game, when new consoles come out?!?!? You know if they made the matrix Neo would have said, " I know Kug *ERROR*" Does anybody know when they expect a patch to be released. Its either they fix it, or I trade it in for black opps. This is depressing.

This is the action that the developers love - Pay money to them while the community irons out the kinks. This is why console games have become as bad as PC games - Release the game, collect the money then patch later. This action is now the model for game releases because the gaming community puts up with it. Sad.......

I'll be buying the DLC on release day. Can't wait!

I havent ran into any corrupted saves at all or any game breaking glitches.With that said, im still not buying the dlc on day 1. Ill wait to make sure it doesnt add more glitches to the game like previous dlc did for the pitt in fo3. Like i said many times before, dlc probably will be very buggy cause they know most people that complain or not will still buy it like blind sheep

I hear you but what's done is done you know? I just don't understand all the [censored]ing and moaning about things no one can change. There's no going back in time to not release the game for another 2 months, hindsight is always 20/20, and it's possible that of their testers, less than 1% experienced the DLC glitch (which is fixed on the PC with the incremental patch so now those users are fine), so they said "well we'll figure that DLC thing out later, less than 1% is acceptable" and then it got a little worse once it was out in the wild (I've not had the DLC error and I don't know anyone personally who's had it either, and even if there's 1000 people complaining on these boards, that's still not even close to 1% of the reported 4 million sold). The gaming community puts up with it because people in general are getting dumber by the generation, and instead of actually not pre-ordering games anymore like they keep threatening, everyone continues to do so, which just motivates developers to get the game out sooner before those people get impatient and cancel their pre-order. And the very next Elder Scrolls or Fallout, people will still line up at the midnight release, and have either completely forgotten about this, or have rationalized in their mind that "Oh, they wouldn't do this again to us, would they!?".

IF ANYBODY BUYS THE DLC BEFORE THESE MONEY HUNGRY LOSERS RELEASE THE PATCH YOUR ALL FOOLS AND I HOPE THE DLC CORRUPTS YOUR FILE AGAIN AND AGAIN TILL YOU LEARN NOT TO GIVE YOUR MONEY TO CROOKS

i have never had a corrupt file or anything and ive got probally over 100+ hour gameplay so far, and ill be hopefully getting the DLC when it comes out unless i have my exams that day

Well is'nt that marvellous, lucky old you.
Do you have any other contributions to the XBox 360 issues forum that would be beneficial apart from 'I have no issues'?

sure

but every game is buggy but meh when i find a bug ill post it, and i hope for them to fix it but, they dont all get on my mind i get on with the game, we shoudnt be compansated or anything

Dont like the Game dont play it, think the game is to buggy dont play it until more patches come out.

I see, so we buy a game and it does'nt work on our console.
So we apparently just wait until we can play it. Even though we paid ￡40+ for it.
It can just sit on our shelves until a patch may or may not arrive.
Thank you Yoda for that mind blowing expertise.
I'll just throw another few ￡20 notes on the fire...i don't need them because i can throw them at games that don't work.

Do not understand the kind issues people are having? I bought this game 2 days after it's released I played for 10hours and my save got corrupted. So I decided to put the game away I wait for a patch...

I didn't think I'd be waiting a month.

Every game has bugs, but this is game breaking. At this stage compensation wouldn't do much for me, it would be nice... But I still won't have the confidence to buy a Bethesda/Obsidian game again, at least not new and not for €50.

I am also not impressed that MS certification that let this game get released in the first place.

Well Considring it does work, and it's corrupt Saves, You learn to save every so often and not in big period's So if you get a corrupt save you go back to a later one

Tell that to the people who lost all of their saves.
One person on here had 21 corrupt saves.
Answer that.

what do you expect me to be a codder and explain what is triggering the corrupt saves?

Not everyone is getting all there slaves corrupt

I am well aware of that.
However, coming onto an Xbox Issues forum to say that you are having no problems and everyone should wait for a patch really helps nobody.
It merely serves to frustrate people like myself who wasted ￡40 on a game that is no use except a very expensive coaster.

PS.Bbuy the DLC at your peril because its possible that it'll screw your game up. Then you can come on here for legitimate reasons and complain that your game is fcuked as well.

Well you can still play seeing as i havnt seen you complain about more than one of your saves being corrupted, and by looking at the staff's post a Patch shoudnt be far away?

and i will buy the dlc and if it mucks up my game ill start another charcter, i usally open Fallout into Roleplaying charcter's

I have shelved my game because i have no desire to lose my 60 odd hours of gameplay, which i have spent exploring and avoiding the strip.
I have around 3 uncompletable quests due to bugs.
I have lost around 7-8 hours gameplay due to the black screen save corruption bug.
Thats not even mentioning the numerous stuttering, frame dropping, inventory hogging quest items, etc bugs i have.

But i always put my games on the shelf and avoid them until they are fixed.
Hell, why bother buying them on release date at all, just ring the company before release, ask when the game will be fixed and just wait until then.
Or just buy a game in October and expect to play it in December...oh wait,i did that already.

Ridiculous.

Unless they plan on having the game running perfectly by then (and hey, it's only TWO MONTHS after release).

It's going to take at least one patch the size of a download content to get this game in a shape that is actually playable without having to dodge certain quests or certain areas without fear of having the feeling of playing Russian roulette with your game saves.

well from some 1 who has lost 26 toon's due to the DLC error all in diff places and diff times and some scum comes on and say's i have no problem's well why don't u turn your copie side way's and fist it up your &ss

haha well said well said

I actually don't believe any of the people that say they have played the game 40+ hours and have had no problems. It's impossible to not to encounter a single quest glitch after 40+ hours. Also why would someone who isn't having any issues trolling around the Hardware/Software issues forum? No Life?

I think the rest of us are looking for answers, I know that I'm checking everyday so that I can get the heads up of when the next patch comes out, as are probably 99.9% of us.

For those of you who haven't had any problems while playing NV...Try actually doing sidequests, especially "Debt Collector" in Freeside. It'd majorly [censored] up any attempt to get into The Strip without an old cowboy hat.
I have 65 hours on this game and just did that quest. Now its [censored] up >.>
