Weapon bugs *spoilers*

Post » Wed Mar 30, 2011 11:22 am

My version as displayed in Main Menu -> Settings -> Display is 1.1.1.271.

I've run into the following, highly annoying weapon bugs.

Using Max Charge Micro Fusion Cells in a Gauss Rifle does not increase its damage at all. The damage and dps ratings dislayed in the Pip-boy do change, but the actual damage done by the weapon in combat remains exactly the same.

The same happens with a Gatling Laser modded with Focus Optics and Carbon Fiber Frame: the damage ratings ostensibly improve by 75% as they should, but the actual damage done by the gun in combat remains the exact same.

When you modify a weapon with a Carbon Fiber Frame, decreasing its weight by 50%, the weapon's Strength requirement remains the same! This happens at least with the Sniper Rifle and Gatling Laser.

You're a couple of updates off. On PC you should be at version 1.2.0.314

I know some of the bugs aren't fixed like w/ the weight reduction mods. I do know that EW got buffed on the last patch.

Is there a way to install these updates manually? My game is a manual install and I have a negative opinion on needing third-party programs (such as steam) in order to run or update a game.

Sorry. You can only get the updates via Steam.
