Muad'Dib Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Well so there goes my theory the game hasn't gone gold for bug fixing...darn. I hope there's some kind of patch in the works soon.
NeverwinterKnight Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 theres some spoilers in that preview for those who havent played the game (ie. the part about kreia). sounds like the reviewer enjoyed the story. i noticed the ai thing once or twice in my play throughs (on xbox though) where one companion would be two "screens" behind, and wouldnt join a battle for some reason. sounds like either a patch or some talented modders will be needed to improve some of the shortcomings. <_<
DSLuke Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Seems a fun game. I'm really starting to gettin worried about the bugs now If there are that many in the game I really hope that a patch will be released soon afterwards. And by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom
Muad'Dib Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Well I'll probably buy it but not install it until the patch is realeased, as hard as that may be. But with the devs going to NWN 2 I doubt there may be a patch anytime soon...

Sirus Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Well, damn. I hoped they would have fixed the bugs.
EUIX Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Don't care, I am starved for a RPG, I will take anything half decent. "For ourselves, we shall not trouble you with specious pretences- either of how we have a right to our empire because we overthrew the Mede, or are now attacking you because of wrong that you have done us- and make a long speech which would not be believed; and in return we hope that you, instead of thinking to influence us by saying that you did not join the Lacedaemonians, although their colonists, or that you have done us no wrong, will aim at what is feasible, holding in view the real sentiments of us both; since you know as well as we do that right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must."
213374U Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 So... what have they been doing since December? Oh, I forgot. NWN2. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
WarriorGSI Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Don't care, I am starved for a RPG, I will take anything half decent. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The game is better than half decent. A great game that could have been better with more bug squashing and AI tweaks. Definitely worth playing

Definitely worth playing <{POST_SNAPBACK}> did you play the xbox version? im just curious how many of these bugs you saw in the pc version were the same as the xbox, or if they fixed all the xbox bugs, but somehow caused a bunch of pc version bugs to sprout.
-Master of All- Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 ->Bugginess is part of the KOTOR experience, I think we've all accepted that by now.
Azure79 Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 This review brings sadness to my heart. There's such a great game at the core, but the bugs and crashes make it less than what it can truly be.
-Master of All- Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Azure, perk up. There's always KOTOR III...
Shady Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I can't understand why the AI can't be fixed to have your other characters attack when enemy is around. Maybe some kind of statement consisting of if PC attacks, then enter attack mode. I don't know, I am going to school for computer science and I have not learned the half of it. Also, why don't they have the "bumping" imported into the game. You know, Icewind Dale 1&2 and Baldurs Gate 2 had it, if you got stuck behind another party memeber and a piece of the level, you could move toward the party member and actually bump them out of the way. It worked pretty well when getting stuck. But again, that was the Infinity Engine, quite a bit different. I just hate the idea of them taking more time to refine the bugs and the reviewers knocks them down on that for having some annoying bugs in the game. I am already hoping for a patch already.
jaguars4ever Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 So MORE bugs, and the same crappy AI. Not only did they do nothing to fix it, but they've done the impossible - they've made it worse. <_<
LoneWolf16 Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 For god sakes Obsidian! FIX THE DAMN AI! I hated KOTOR's! Ruined the experience at integral points (*cough* starforge *cough*). And don't even get me started on the damn bugs! What have you guys been doing all this time!? I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast

LoneWolf16 Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 ^ Well aware...keep forgetting that sarcasm isn't exactly conveyed too well through text...My bad I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast
Jitawa Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 This is vexing... I'd urge everyone to just wait till a patch is released before you buy the game. No reason to play the game half-baked... give it awhile, since you have the option.
Oerwinde Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I'm just looking at that review and its like 30% Summary, 60% bitching, and 10% praise, yet they give it a 4/5. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Darth Sun_Tzu Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I was impressed by this new screenshot! Another great idea by the people who brought you beer milkshakes! "I don't see a problem...then again, SW isn't my life, so what do I know...." - some who makes 27.8 post per day on a SW forum!
