Bugs and glitches in a Fallout title, I'm shocked...

Keep your catheters clean, remember to eat and change position regularly to avoid pressure sores.
Tell a loved one that you're playing and set alarms for the above personal maintenance.
Avoid mirrors until after you've showered / shaved / groomed after completing the game.
Be safe people.

There's nothing to be proud of, i.e. buying a game in such state (or being an early adopter of any new thing, really). It only encourages devs to that over and over again.

So I just got my copy delivered, I opened the box and... Well, then I went to read out the fresh (
http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/B00KIMBVJE/ref=cm_cr_dp_see_all_summary?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1&sortBy=byRankDescending) Amazon reviews for the PC version. Why don't I just stick a choice quote over here for you guys.

I bought the disk version as my internet is terrible. Bethesda announced a few months ago that even with the disk version, you would also have to download part of the game from Steam. However, what they did not say, is how much. Common sense dictates that most of the game would be on the disk, with a little left over to download online, but this is not the case. The disk contains 5GB out of 24GB - about 1/5th of the overall game size, on one DVD. It is going to take me another 5 days to actually play the game. [...]

Generally, yes. That's true, but it's the same with most things trending and we're (mostly) all still going.
I myself tend to err on the side of caution in such cases. This time is different. Bethesda has been consistent with it's titles and disclosure isn't a dirty word for them it would seem. Just look at the launch trailer and see the woman who narrates early on doesn't actually lip sync her own words well.:erg:
It took me six months to buy Skyrim in hope of bug squashing and price reduction. Fallout 4 was the only time I ever preordered a game and I look forward to playing it bugs and all.

I guess I just don't get why they would only put 5 GB of data on a store bought version - to save on blank disks? I know some of the data has changed or needs to be updated before release, but that much? Seems really dumb, especially when they should know that the only reason people buy hard copies anymore is so they don't have to download.
Played for about an hour last night, no glitches or bugs that I saw so far. The setup tried to stick me with "Medium" graphics, but I upped it to whatever the next higher setting is, and it's running super smooth. Looking forward to just ignoring the plot tonight and heading out to explore the game world for a bunch of hours.

Not really seeing the upside, either. And I don't mind having to wait longer, but I'd have expected it to be made clear beforehand.
I mean, in this instance, bags are a socially-accepted way of distributing cats, except when I got home with this one I discovered that it's only got the arse-end of the cat and a coupon for getting the rest of it delivered over the post.

Wasn't there a game released recently where literally the only thing on the disc was a link to the Steam installer? :laff: Crazy.
