I think the holstering of guns is bugged (xbox), every time I need to "holster" a gun, I switch to fists and press X to drop my fists.

But then I can select a gun using the d-pad but still have it holstered, I just can't directly go from having a gun in hand to gun in belt. A small issue but I guess I'll wait for a patch.

Yeah I am trying to play from my fucking rez room where I my xbox isn't hooked up to the internet.

Fucking should blew up the fucking town. I am so insanely pissed... I do not want to do an hour more of quests that I already completed...

Bullshit fucking game...

Because I'm in rez and my laptop won't run it. My good computer is at home but my parents need it.

It's not like there is multiplayer, and its the exact same game on all platforms, so it really doesn't make a difference.

None the less I went to a different save point, re did all the quests I completed... now I love the game again.

That's not a bug, it's supposed to be like that. That way you can change weapons without whipping them out.

Why bother switching to fists when you holster anyways?

What's pissing me off right now is the game keeps freezing on PC
Nothing wrong with the computer in that I have nothing else running and it'll run fine when i do the ctrl -alt-del on it and close fallout3

I can't wait till they patch it

[Tik-Tok]

No problems on xbox

Eventually I'll trade it in for the comp version though, after a whackload of good mods pop-up for it.

I haven't had any problems on PC yet?? And man is this game ever Sweet!!

I feel ya. I quicksave every 2 minutes just so that WHEN it freezes (not if) I'm not fucked.

If you want to hook it up, talk to me or Alex in Reznet and we'll get that going with a little network bridging.

too lazy to read the whole thread but, for me the VATS system is just horribly laggy (PC), other than that everything is a dream

i got stuck once...

AWESOME GAME
vats bullet time is great and the sound effects are EPIC

[Hamann]

Havent had any bugs with my copy so far, had a slight frame rate drop for about 30 seconds once but thats it (I have it for 360)

Spoiler:

Finally got a fat boy to use my mini nuke with and got 8 more mini nukes at the same time just in time to take out the Big Ass Mutant that attacks the Radio Building.

Anyone make it to Vault 112 Yet?

Spoiler:

Threw me for one hell of a loop, took me a half hour to figure out how to get out without having to kill my Karma listening to that little bitch

It is? Check your computer mang, runs 100% on mine.

[gen2teggy]

I only done 2 quest, fixing the 3 water pipes and getting that 200caps for the info, so far i just been running around killing people and Mutants..lvl 5 so far

[Unknown303]

Spoiler:

I couldn't take it anymore and I ran to Tenpenny Tower and did the unthinkable to Megaton. It was very rewarding and the evil pepboy symbol in the top corner seem to be warning me that it was a poor decision for my karma lol

Quick Tip:

Fast Travel Times

If your in the wastelands. Go to your Pipboy and world map. You can click the town that you have been to then A (360).

I use this all the time to haul stuffs to sell!!

Thats the only way to travel! I found there is rarely enough enemies in the wastelands to justify actually walking. Now in the city however if your heading south on the waterfront there is nothing but supermutants to combat.

Spoiler:

I went to the crater formerly known as Megaton and the lady from the supply store was there but all ghoulified. I felt bad for a second, was pondering shooting her in the face. FYI theres a bounty out for me now for some reason, could be the nuke thing...

[DENZILDON]

Just posted it up incase someone missed it.

yeah i do too, but at least the devs put in redundancy measures too, cause i loaded myself up at the supermarket with TONS oh crap to sell @ craterside, i think it was WG= 309/210, you move like you're stuck in molasses , i tried to fast travel back to Megaton and it says 'you are too encumbered'

[Unknown303]

Hahaha yeah I tried that the first time I had a big haul and was a little disappointed.

Has anyone eaten a corpse lately??

[jsn]

so that freezing is a problem with the game itself? I just bought it and it fucking freezes every 10-30 minutes. It's pissing me off You guys know a way to keep the freezing to a minimal?
