Fallout: New Vegas!

crazyeyesreaper · Oct 20, 2010

well i just tried buying New Vegas but since my paypal isnt verified i can't purchase it i love how theyll take my money no questions asked but i cant send it to anyone nor can i purchase anything unless its verified seems like a giant load of bullshit, and here i was with the day off and i had finally decided to purchase the game and have a bit of fun.

WhiteNoise · Oct 20, 2010

Why aren't you verified? Its just a couple clicks away. They place a few cents in your account and if all goes well it proves the account is there and you are then verified. And you keep the money.

you might be able to use a Visa green dot or similar. you can buy them at right aid, etc and "charge" them , and they work like credit cards. i've never tried it with steam but in most stores, etc they work no problem.

also - can you not get a pre-paid credit card either? go directly to visa, etc and you pay them however much you set your limit at. then you charge it and pay it off monthly to build your credit rating, if that is the problem.

sry for being intrusive - just trying to offer some options.

I am running a little slow on medium but I can tweak and see...

EDIT: Tweaking complete. Better screenshots incoming. I am running with 2x AF and 2x AA, high res, and some other improvements. Runs much better.

The new pic's look awesome! Thanks! :toast:

its just a pain in the ass as the money id spend on games is IN the paypal account already so its a moot point

Paypal have bank cards that act just like a credit card but uses your paypal money. My friend has one. Just tossing that out there.

just so you guys aren't dissapointed the game is pretty decent but the one thing that bugs me so far is that some of the animations (mainly the iron sights animation) are off and im getting an odd stutter problem

Yes there is a fix for ATI (remove the atimgugsomething.dll file) but as yet there's no fix for Nvidia - the game looks dull without hdr and on the laptop if I disable SLI I'd be getting like 20 fps instead of 45 fps

BP do you mean>> atimgpud.dll ???? thats in the FO3 game directory?

I noticed this. Everytime I am in dialogue with a person, my FPS drops to like 4 (from 60!). I am pissed. BTW, still tweaking, try to put your settings higher than they should be. I run better on medium than low, and 8x AA on high settings runs pretty smooth. I am disappointed at the fail tweaking the game devs did on the default settings. They cannot tweak worth shit.

My mission list is so long, so for most of the missions I go on a rampage till it says I failed or succeeded. My Karma is high, but I have assassins coming after me all the time. Probably me helping Mr. House does not help matters. Money is not a issue by a long shot. I can buy what I need. I need alot of water. Hardcore means hunger, sleep, dehydration, can all effect the character. Trust me, crippled limbs really suck, that's why I carry a whole bunch of doctor's bags. I also have enough ammo on my character to weigh him down 60 pounds. I really need to get the perk to carry more weight.

EDIT: Screenies are on Ultra. I can run Ultra. WTF? My system sucks. I can run Ultra, but not low? What is this?

EDIT2: U mad? I have the Pimp Boy! Got it as a reward! :toast:

I noticed (back when I had my Rage 3D Pro) that it couldn't filter textures as fast as simply displaying one that's bigger than it needed to be.... but that's a whole other topic...

PVTCaboose1337 · Oct 21, 2010

A major patch was released. Hopefully we will get some bug fixes. There are alot of bugs.

Mussels · Oct 21, 2010

My vegas just started unlocking

as for bugs... i never really had any problems with oblivion or FO3 except for the odd crashes. large address aware mods + quitting antivirus always fixed those.

digibucc · Oct 21, 2010

i've only played for about 6 or 7 hours but i've had no bugs glitches or crashes.... unless they're so minute as to be unnoticeable... in which case... i don't care

i am definitely liking it

Mussels · Oct 21, 2010

patch notes said it fixed some questing/scripting issues

crazyeyesreaper · Oct 21, 2010

downloading now once its done i cant wait to start tweaking the game engine again to see if theres new limits that can be broken via tinkering

AltecV1 · Oct 21, 2010

game has crashed 2 times already

ALSO im stuck at one of the mission called Crazy,Crazy,Crazy where i have to talk do a super mutant and i have 2 options in the dialog menu: "lets go" and "wait i have to do something else before"(not with the same phrases but you get the point)and whatever option i press it still registers it as "wait i have to do something else before" :cry:

STUPID BUGS

Mussels · Oct 21, 2010

i quit to lower AA/AF, and now i cant start vegas :S 'unavailable'
