It sucks.

I even got a glitch that cripples my movement and I hope it goes away sometime soon. It's like a debuff you get when you're "outnumbered." It decreases your movement speed so you can't "run" away. So **** realistic right?

Googles4Lyfe

So the game sucks because you don't know how to play, that argument is really going to turn people away. Its tearing me apart already, I'm thinking I'd be better off selling my copy asap.

I've been playing my roommates copy of the game, and it is actually very good. If you're "over encumbered", like everyone else is saying, you are carrying too much stuff. I know because this has happened to me quite a few times and i've had to drop items in order for me to move at a regular pace. It is a very vast game, which from what i've experienced seems to be bethesda's style (I mean look at oblivion, thats a lot of walking and open space to explore). As for the graphics being drab or dull, IT IS A POST APOCALYPTIC WASTELAND. I don't think there are too many vivid colors in one, and this game seems to capture that feeling quite well. As far as glitches go, the only minor thing that I experienced is dog meat getting stuck on walls which forces me to come looking for him. He is also rather over aggressive as well (is there a way to control him besides issuing commands to find food/ammo/ or staying?) which causes him to go charging into battles that you don't want to fight especially when your health is low, and you have little healing items. This game will be one of the games that I purchase.

Very realistic indeed. Way to contradict yourself. This game is amazing and your're being ignorantly critical of it; play it more and you will love it. I personally fell in love with it from the instant I saw the main menu.

Hey, be thankful that its not as glitchy as the PS3 version. Devs these days seem to think its ok to give the PS3 half-assed ports. It sickens me.

I haven't played the game yet so I wouldn't know if it's a glitch, but take a number buddy... some of my favorite games out there have had some serious glitches. I recommend just toughing it out or starting a new game. You shouldn't let a glitch get between you and a game.

see, this is another reason that this game was supposed to only be sold to people over the age of 17 (18? whatever the age is supposed to be for a person to buy an M rated game)... they want to make sure you know how to read first. not see a big word (more than 6 letters, apparently, takes too much time to sound out for the TC) and begint to shed tears becuase of a glitch that makes no sense to you. so when you're outnumbered, you can't move? oh, ok, sounds about right. play it again, read the word again, look it up in a thesaurus or dictionary, and don't embarass yourself on here like this again.

Holy crap, if you can't figure out how to drop stuff...man are you going to get owned later. I could see you quitting the game, the first time you get to a raider or mutant camp.

It says "You are over encumbered" it even tells you to clear your inventory.

The games amazing, you're blaming it for your inability to understand. I guess you haven't played Oblivion either, seeing as it has the same system as far as carrying too much.

It's clear this guy has not played many western style RPG's.

I would have said give him a break but to say this game is a waste of money and to insist people do not waste there money on it he kind of deserves to get the hairy side of the hand.

It's also clear he has to much stuff in his inventory, and its clear he has since went and checked that out and realised how silly this thread is and will not return.

The game even tells you that you need to drop some stuff when it happens, "outnumbered" lol.

yeah well u are the only one that doesnt like it, Like a lot of other people has said just drop stuff or sell thats the reason y u arnt moving fast. Its not hard to figure out. If u do sell the game its your lose cause this game is one of the best. I think u are mad cause u just dont know how to play the game.

I have run into a glitch where you are encumbered even though I rid myself of practically everything. I just reloaded the game and it was fixed.

[QUOTE="gotcha455"][QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"]

I'm really disappointed with the game. It was a waste of money if you ask me..

sammyjenkis898

Why? You were one of the day one players, right? Why do you think it was waste? I rarely buy games and dropped $60 on this one, it was well worth it.

I'm not a fan of the combat system and the graphics are pretty dull. This is my opinion of course.

I couldnt agree more, whats oddly wierd though is i liked oblivion but got sick of it, maybe im having desiavous(spelling)

The OP hasn't posted in a while. Most likely he realized he is dyslexic and cannot read, and he's realized his mistake. Problem solved.

Think of Over encumbered as eating too much and now you have to take a p00p. A better game to get thats really realistic would be Sucks Row 2. You can carry 15 different weapons wear 5 layers of clothes....... and still be able to run.

Go get a wii, and stop QQ here.jonathan_rector

What a great idea. If you want to stop gaming until 09.

If you read the thread, it's not a glitch, he didn't understand a part of the game. Completely his fault.

Like others have said, check your inventory. The message is that you're overencumbered, not outnumbered or anything like that. You probably just need to sell or drop some stuff. If you're crippled, you need to use a stimpack or rest. I'm not totally sure, but I think addiction and radiation poisoning can also lower your stats, which would affect your encumberence.

There are glitches in every game. Just revert or start over and it shouldn't happen.

You're misunderstanding.

I'm not wounded. I'm not carrying too much stuff. I get the pop-up on the top left corner that tells me "I can't run because I'm overnumbered" or whatever.... And I'm not even in ****ing combat. Now I just walk at 10% speed for the rest of my game and hope something will happen to fix it. I wont reset this game even though I went far.

Gonna return it tommorow. Get like Dead Space or Fable II which are ten-thousand times better than **** ball of ****.

Googles4Lyfe

ROFLMAO! That's "over-encumbered" not "outnumbered. :lol: It means you are carrying too many items and weapons/armor. Just throw away some stuff until the number is lower than the total.

Try droping items you don't need or go to bed or use a stimpack or something plus theres a quest which gives you a side effect which regenerates broken limbs or just restart the game

Your illiteracy is the glitch, it's got nothing to do with the game.

Im_single

yeah i agree, you mean encumbered or your trolling

the amount of enemies you fight has NOTHING to do with your stats

I bought Fable II then read a thread which asked users "Fable II or Fallout 3", Fallout 3 won that battle hands down. Then, I bought the game this morning and I'm not very far. Right now, I'm at the very beginning (where you need to escape) and I already think this game is awesome which makes it one of the few games that I have liked from the beginning (I didn't even think Fable II was that awesome. I actually think the child thing kinda takes away from the story). Then, I read this thread, and I'm even more happy with my second choice (as in this is only the 2nd game I've ever bought for the 360).

Yea the one on the boxart, i ran into some random raider camp and they had it on them not wearing it just on them, i think it was just a random occurence of luck, i wish i could tell you where and when sorry.

i find that very ironic, YOU seem to be misunderstanding, you ARE carrying too much stuff.

im surprised you could form enough words to make this post.

overnumbered? my god, did you even try to read it. its people like you who clog these forums with stupid crap, "i cant find the key", "this game is too hard", "why is everyone shooting at me". try trying be4 you give up on a game.
