14 DAY TRIAL // Fallout: New Vegas has just been officially launched a few days ago, but videos of its glitches or hilarious problems have already been uploaded on popular video websites like YouTube.
Fallout: New Vegas continues to develop the Fallout franchise after 2008's Fallout 3, and continues to use Bethesda's Gamebryo engine.
Still, despite the fact that its development studio, Obsidian, tried to cure the engine of its constant glitches, Fallout: New Vegas still has some rather awkward moments, as highlighted by the multiple videos already popping up on YouTube.
The most hilarious one, as of yet, occurs right at the beginning of the game, when the playable character meets Dr. Mitchell.
As you can see below, the good doctor seems to suffer from either a very mobile neck or wants to recreate the famous Exorcist movies.
This isn't the only bug in New Vegas, as people are already spotting things like a moonwalking dog (Michael Jackson tribute?), invisible computers or heads stuck on ceilings.
Besides these rather hilarious glitches, some users are reporting more serious problems, like save game corruption or the fact that the game doesn't recognize some completed quests, and doesn't let the player continue on his main quest line.
According to Bethesda's Pete Hines, the company, together with Obsidian, are working on releasing patches and updates as soon as possible for all platforms so that their experience may be as smooth as possible.
"We are currently working on releasing patches/updates as quickly as possible for Fallout: New Vegas, for all platforms. Announcements regarding the patches are forthcoming."
Those that suffer from the Dr. Mitchell head-turning glitch are advised to recheck the files downloaded by Steam, as a corrupt mesh file is to blame.
The first patch of many has already been released by Bethesda on Steam, and will be automatically downloaded the next time you start your game on the PC.
Expect it to be launched on the consoles in the next few days.
