The .357 Magnum

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 5:40 am

The .357 magnum is continuously glitchy. Everytime I either change to a different gun or simply use it in a fight a few things happen: 1) The will always only be 1 bullet in the chamber even if I had previously fully loaded it, 2) The gun will shoot blanks in a fight, 3) The character will aim off to the far right instead of straight thereby missing the target entirely, 4) While the character is loading the gun, if hit the animation will constantly start over NEVER allowing the gun to be reloaded. This is especially problematic against the Deathclaws with their fast and vicious attacks if the .357 magnum is the only gun you have on you at the moment with ammo. Please fix this glitch soon. The gun is a main-stay in my arsenal, as the ammunition for it is plentiful and easy to come by. Has anyone else had any of these problems?

I've had probs w/ rifles doing that,being at point-blank range in VATS and missing especially against canine enemies(Nightstalkers in peticular). Hand guns i' ve had not reload at all(9mm,.44 cal)until i took them out of my inv and put them back in.....

I have this same problem with the cowboy repeater. On top of that, sometimes it gets stuck half way through the chambering action and the gun points up and to the left until I unequipt it. It's interesting to note that any which way a gun glitches it will always shoot in the correct direction from the muzzle of the gun, so it would be safe to assume it is not a graphical bug.

i have been stuck in my vats after using the magnum
i was in the basemant of reppcon, with the nightkin
i used vats fired my 6 shots into his head (all of them his) then i was stuck in vats while this nightkin brutally beat my face in over and over again until i was dead (this particular nightkin was very inaccuracte and it took well over 3 minutes of being stuck in vats unable to move for me to die)
