I am playing the hell out of New Vegas right now. I hit the 25 hours mark last night and finally decided to go into the Strip. In all honesty, New Vegas is really a phenomenal game. I am totally hooked. BUT, I have been able, so far, to avoid the major bugs because of the other gamers who have, sadly, encountered them. If I come across a game breaking bug or a borken quest, I will post myself. So, thank you for being this active. To the developpers, I try to understand why you leave us in the dark most of the time. New Vegas players are really patient. A little respect would be appreciated. I mean, how long does it take to keep un informed AT LEAST once a week. Thanks!
I have to second this. My only game-breaking experience was right after my Xbox downloaded the first update; after that it would freeze every time I entered VATS, so that save file was corrupted. But after loading a much earlier save, I've managed to keep going for another 20 hours without losing anything since. I've run into a bunch of bugs since then, some merely cosmetic, some irritating enough that I had to reload a slightly earlier save, but nothing I couldn't get around so far. I've avoided the Come Fly With Me quest, and spent all my time on the Strip wearing that fool Old Cowboy Hat, and thus managed to avoid the pitfalls associated with those quests and locations. All thanks to you guys and girls on the forum.
Lots of good karma and Atomic Cocktails to everyone!
