caseys Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I work US hours, sometimes it has it's benefits As do I! But they also make me work UK hours at the same time This is probably why I like fallout. Read all 3 parts if you're bored. Does contain spoilers for fallout 3 if you've never played it, but I'm sure many on this thread have! Which may seem surprising, as I've already ploughed through old ladies, overworked doctors, and starving beggars with my trusty sledgehammer. (Well, it became my trusty sledgehammer after I clubbed one of Megaton's sledgehammer-wielding citizens to death with a baseball bat.) I'm on a mission - not to praise Jesus or ensure that every child in Namibia has a netbook, but to kill every single living vaguely human-like character in Fallout 3. Kids are off the menu because a) Fallout 3 doesn't let you kill them, and b) I couldn't do it, anyway. But everyone else, no matter how friendly, helpful, or beneficial to my completion of the game, must be put into the ground. And what's more, to go through with the quest would be to revoke my status as an equal-opportunity sociopath: as Moriarty's pub explodes into claret-coloured pandemonium, the sinister Mr. Burke sits in the corner, having conspired with me about levelling the town. He's smug: he thinks that because we are both evil, I will let him live. Not so, Mr. Burke: I shoot him twice in the chest with the now-limbless Billy Creel's Scoped .44 Magnum, and then knock his head clean off with a lead pipe I happen to be carrying (I am an RPG collectophile). Hilariously, this act gives me a slight whiff of positive karma: one suspects Bethesda feels two wrongs do ultimately make a right. I'm sure sensible people can also detach gamesReality.

Lee_e Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 going to be awesome this... does anybody know if tesco's are shelving it at midnight?? Or is it all store depending type stuff, i know for a fact my local "BIG" tesco's probably wont as they are lazy and completely pig headed, might be worth a late night burst to find out though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Apparently this is so buggy that the creators have had to issue a statement already detailing what will be fixed in the patch that they are working on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard the same, so will put purchase off for a few days (this applies to consoles, as the PC patches hjave already been released) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the update sent out on Steam last night was the patch to fix a few of the issues I experienced. X360 and PS3 owners will have to wait a few days from what has been stated by Bethesda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 That shit annoys me, why dont they test it fully before release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The-Plethora Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Ugh, this game unlocks in approximately one hour. Apparently 1am is all of Europe. Have to play Amnesia in the meantime It's about £13 on steam and well worth checking out, scared the shit out of me and made me launch my cup a soup off the desk!

Homer Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Amnesia is a great game and pretty much unique Very strange to play a FPS with no weapons or any combat method apart from hiding. One of the scariest games around too! Another patch just went in on Steam for NV, but still not available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 oh you dirty dirty whore! hurry up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Likewise mate, unpacking it now. Update on the patch fixes: http://forums.bethsoft.com/index.php?showtopic=1125221&st=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Happy to say that the proper version is *so far* worlds apart from the crap that was leaked. FPS is so much better and can get it set to ultra settings at full resolution now without any performance issues. See you all in a few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Yeah only had a quick faff for now, looks amazing on top quality, only thing I am unsure about is autosave. A couple of times I have been to places and died and found myself right back at the tutorial. Does it only autosave when I enter a building? Liking it so far, those glass bottles were no match for my varmit rifle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
