Orion16 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 how bad can the bugs be? there will always be bugs in games. nothing is perfect. I just wanna play the game and bring the galaxy to it's knees :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverwinterKnight Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 i'll put it like this: i didn't notice a single glitch or bug. a friend of mine didn't have that many problems as well. the only glitch he noticed(albeit a big one!) was the boat crash. he had to use the console to get back to LA(from the crazy christians mansion). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> so thats 50% of the copies of the games youve seen that have bugs, and that bug was a major one. yet you contend that its not one of the buggier games. id say a 50% failure rate is a pretty high percentage. *note: i know im using a small sample size, but since your original point about it not being buggy is because you didnt run in to them (ie. a small sample size), its just as valid* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakar Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I played BL halfway through and didn't encounter any bugs that I can think of. One time I had severe slowdown but that was it (and i was running bittorrent at the time heh). Oh and my system was slow as balls after I closed the game, but never a problem in game. As for this review i'm not sure what to think. The only problem I had with a non-patched KOTOR1 was two corrupted quicksaves which was alot better than I was lead to believe would happen if I played it. This review is good to me since it says the story is great, which is all I really care about. But to think they had these extra months and weren't doing that much bug squashing makes me sick. Oh well, i'll just wait to play it and see if I have any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Ni Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 (edited) i'd say one glitch doesn't qualify the game as "one of the buggiest ever"...if it truly was, i'd expect everyone to experience a few major problems with it. like everyone i know did with deus ex 2 or cycling manager 3... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> then deus ex 2 didnt have any bugs either, since i didnt come across any. in other words, flawed logic. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Neither did I for that matter. The game ran pretty smoothly for me it's just that it sucked (in terms of storyline). No match for the original Deus Ex... EDIT: Then again... I only played using the v1.2 patch so the bugs might have been fixed Edited February 8, 2005 by Darth Ni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"so thats 50% of the copies of the games youve seen that have bugs, and that bug was a major one. yet you contend that its not one of the buggier games. id say a 50% failure rate is a pretty high percentage." besides, the claim was that BL was one of the buggiest games ever. i said no and provided one argument. the argument was far from flawless, but i it's not up to me to disprove the statement. if one claim BL is the buggiest game ever, it's up to them to prove it. not up to everyone else to disprove it. that's logic. that's how one debates. now run along...

dantivirus Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I usually take any review with with a spoonful of sugar and stiff shot of vodka. :D I let myself be the judge of the game, no the press, not hype, just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
