awesome, I'm very early in the game and have been away from it for awhile

I just start this game, great timing.

Well, I guess when you have Obsidian working with an already shady engine this happens.

Now I'll be able to play the damn game!

Fix: Entering the strip after Debt Collector causes crash and autosave corruption 

 
Thank God. I stopped playing New Vegas because I couldn't go back to the strip. After thirty hours, I can finally kill Benny!

I already mentioned this in the thread i made in the forums, but it's really nice to see some spotlight on these kind of news.  Good job and keep it up Brad Nicholson.

I already finished it at around 100 hours, but  jeez, the bugs! I lost count of how many  times missions broke, or the game straight up crashed the console. The save file corruption bug even got me once...Mayyyyyyybe I'll start a new game when the patch hits the 360. Too bad load times weren't reduced...here's to wishful thinking!

" This is shit that a game should not ship with. Look at all the quest bugs.  "

"A broken pile of shit that a conscionable organization never would have shipped.  "

good news in case i get this for xmas!

"cool, should be able to find ED-E again.  "

I just bought it two days ago, I've been waiting for weeks to play it.  Finally I can!!

Too little too late.

Yay... After 360's patch I can finally put this game back in.  Looking forward to playing the actual release candidate version from the public beta ;)

Oblivion always make buggy games. It's a well documented fact. I pre-ordered the game on Steam but decided to wait until the big patch to hit the wild. Turns out that next week I can play Fallout : NV :D

The PC version runs a lot better right now, than at launch. It no longer stutters and chugs when more than 2 NPCs are on screen, which makes the game far more enjoyable. Plus, they already fixed quite a few of these issues - NPCs show up as waypoints already in my game.  
 
The only real thing they need to fix is the lighting indoors. Whenever I use my Pipboy for lighting, it makes the room DARKER, which I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to do.

I played the game a lot on PC and had the good fortune of never running into one the more serious bugs. And without those, F:NV is simply a great RPG-experience with much more depth and variety than its predecessor. Of course, Bugs are an outrage for players whose gaming experience is severely affected by them. Nevertheless, Obsidian did produce  a kind of game which is becoming less and less common, if just for the need of a lot of additional expensive content which will possibly never be seen by many buyers. That's why i do hope this patch convinces many more people Obsidian's games are worth buying - and Obsidian keeps creating them.

Sweet, had noticed the problem with the weathered 10mm mods creating some broken amusement along with some autosave corruptions. Now that I had to start over, due to picking the wrong choices on one quest with Gommorah casino (trying to play good with 1 save), I'll have to find that recipe again for the beloved Rock-it launcher that I found on that previous playthrough, for some reason after finding the recipe it was never showing up in the list to craft it even though I had all the parts listed in the notes. Looking forward to launching coffee cups at things to watch it's limbs/head explode in a bloody good mess.

Wow, reading that list of fixes makes me really offended that they shipped this game, lol

Big list.  I would have liked to know in detail what 90% of those fixes entailed.
 
+100 hrs on the PC version, and if you know your old Oblivion console commands, its not nearly as bad as it could be (or not to a degree that hampers my love of the experience), at least since the PC patch a few weeks ago. 

Cool, now I'll go and start playing it.  
 
Even though I bought it on release and it was unplayable for me.

" Oblivion always make buggy games. It's a well documented fact. I pre-ordered the game on Steam but decided to wait until the big patch to hit the wild. Turns out that next week I can play Fallout : NV :D "

i got the patch and i just got  another patch last night by far my favorite glitch is one i call "up in the air" were just after exiting my pip boy my character flies 20 o 30 feet up in the air and then slowly falls back to earth, it was the first way i got into the new vegas strip. 
 
p.s. also my ed-e my love mission is still broken... i have ed-e with me almost all the time.

What about the load times on Xbox 360.

Er, you mean Obsidian, right? "

I'm struggling to think of things that aren't changed a little in this patch.  Fair play, Obsidian good work.  I just hope this doesn't break my mods :S

it almost seems like the don't have game testers at obsidian/bethesta, all of these problem could be fixed before, though I do know how complex this game is and how many variables that plays into things, it's still baffeling how buggy their games are sometimes.
myself I love fallout, both 3 and Vegas, and I haven't really encountered any major bugs, save file corruptions or other game breaking clitches, I guess it's just a matter of time then, hopefully the patch will make me keep avoiding them in the future

So, I don't have to wear an Old Cowboy Hat every time I go into the Strip now? Woo!

Seriously, this game should not have been released with that amount of bugs. What a joke.

I updated and played a bit earlier... While, at first, it seemed to run smoother and lag less, I entered a new area and suddenly it started playing like an image slideshow... Frame rate must have dropped to about 0.2 per seconds before finally giving up and just full-on crashing... So I'm somewhat suspicious as to just what this patch has done.. Apparently there're a bunch of quest fixes but I never got broken quests anyway... Only problems I ever had was the slugish frame rate and random crashing. Rare, but annoying.

Might hop back into this game once this goes live on live...

I hope this patch helps me find Veronica, I need her for some BoS quests.
 
Weird to see the PC version hit AFTER a console.

I hit a spot where the game locked up everytime I hit RB (V.A.T.S) after the last update, I guess I'll start the game over next week and see what happens. Thankfully I wasn't to far into the game, can't wait to dig into this game.

This is great, as I found out last weekend I'll be getting a copy of this for Christmas. One of the big reasons I kept putting off buying this was because of all the bugs.

look at all those fixes. was anything in the game not horribly broken? i mean that's just pathetic

While I have to agree with your statement, I have to say in Fallout's defense that those quests were only "potentially" buggy. I've played thorugh a lot of them and had no problems whatsoever.  Still, I had also wished it would have worked flawlessly from the beginning. "

I tried holding out, decided to beat the game a few days ago. the ending sequence of the game locked my ps3 up 4 times, instead of returning to a previous save and continuing forth in the game to finish everything there was to do in the game. I said FUCK THIS GAME and traded it in while it was still worth anything. Now how I'm going to get my fallout3 saves back on my xbox is my only priority. =(

If there were bugs that necessitated fixing in them, then they were buggy.  Please don't sugarcoat this piece of shit. "

I've been holding out for some patching, but at this point I may just wait for the GOTY

Goddamn I like this game but that is a HUGE-ass list of fixes.  Like  "Oh by the way the quests actually work now"     Thanks guys so glad you could make sure the 2/3rds of the content that was broken works 2 months after release now.

Took those pieces of shit long enough.

already finished this with 135 hours logged on the PC and I'm not going back any time soon.
 
For the most part my game experience was bug-free.

" My companions already fast travel with me and show up as waypoints. Does this mean the patch has already been applied to the Steam version? "
