Allow me to offer my services. : Fallout: New Vegas

Howdy, while looking at the recent game Fallout New Vegas, I cannot help but feel that it was not suitably tested for a title, while there are some rather sizable issues regarding gameplay and loading and crashing, there are also smaller, easier to change issues such as character dialog text typos which should have been picked up by testers had they been doing their job and given the right amount of time (Which might not have been the case).

Far be it from me to tell you who to use to test your software, but I do feel that I could have done a better job, and at competitive rates to other testers (Last testing I did the professional option was asking around 70 an hour, I stole the work away for a third of that.)
So hey, if ever you need some stuff run down a gauntlet, do keep me in mind... dreadfully sorry that you released an unpolished bit of game out there.

"while there are some rather sizable issues regarding gameplay and loading and crashing"

Think you missed a comma there.

Its well known that obsidian has the ability to produce crap aka alpha protocol.If u look up the time frame obsidian was given by bethesda are u surprised they released a half done glitch fest lol? its still worth noting that obsidian did a damn decent game if u expclude the glitches.One of the things that impresses me most is the draw length for the snipers/the bad assery that is the mg grenade launcher its full of win.Only thing that matches the mg is maybe the mirv.

I'm starting to doubt this. I mean, there are so many people that claim to be 'experts' in the industry with the telling us how they themselves could solve the issues with NV. Maybe us 'normal' people are totally wrong and Obsidian is just another name for Bethesda.

My conspiracy theory sense is starting to kick in. I need to make another tinfoil hat.

Edit - saving myself from grammar police, hopefully.

Well, fallout 3 took four years to make, this game took about 18 months, so in a way you are right that they could of tested this game a bit more, but.... :facepalm:

Would you mind telling me why Alpha Protocol was a crap game?
