New patch and DLC announcement on the way

  • Comment
More articles
Bethesda's Jason Bergman (Senior Producer for Fallout: New Vegas) has posted an update on what is coming for Fallout: New Vegas. The patch, which focuses on "optimizations and stability improvements" will be released "in the next couple of weeks," with the PC likely getting it before the consoles. The patch also includes bug fixes, weapon balance tweaks, and "other requested fixes."

Bergman claims that the next DLC (Honest Hearts) has been complete for some time but was held up so the patch could be completed. He promises an announcement on Honest Hearts will be coming "very soon," which makes sense given that the trailer was already accidentally seen.

Finally, Bergman mentions that they do have another update planned after this one.

    Ive been searching around the net about honest hearts and found this, can someone tell me if this is real? please and i went there and i dont know, just watch the vid and check that site, its supposed to be a redeemable code for honest hearts, someone please findout if this is a scam and inbox me at my NV profile please!




    Scam. Website is written in bad english and in video it shows that you need to restart pc after install. Games don't require restart so it's most likely installing couple hundred rootkits, keyloggers, trojans and other bad stuff. And why would Bethesda give free dlc codes to a blog that isn't even in proper english? And even IF they did, they would give Steam code for PC, not installer. It's a SCAM.

    Yeah, i'm hoping this patch will fix my crashing problem. Haven't been able to play New Vegas since new computer parts. I have tried a lot things, like reseting directshow, adding dll-files, cleaning ini files and so on, game still crash. I really hope upcoming patch will solve the problem.

    if i turn on kerberous panzer police or warzones i start crashing more often or without em i can play 1 hour no crash but mainly the crashes come from way too much activity before it unloads all crap (i play on High Settings low water and shadows) do ya think the new patch will really make it more stable :/ i dont care about performance cuz even while recording is ok

    Agree with breton warrior, before I buy the dlc my game worked fine and never crashed nor had the come fly with me bug that causes the save games to be corrupt after dead money the loading is slower indeed and the crashes started happening.

    My game was stable with a very rare CTD, have over 60 mods and sorted any conflicts with NVEdit and my own CO's. Was
    very happy with how it ran.

    Then I bought 'Dead Money' worst $10 I ever spent on a DLC.
    Loading times are now much much slower, Dead Money crashed
    the game when I tried to start it. I had to start a new
    character to clear what seemed to be corrupt saves, all these saves where fine until I tried Dead Money.

    So yes do some much needed optimizations and please try to get any future DLC's tested by players before you release.

    "'It's always sunday' bug what's that ?"

    Essentially, every time I reload a game, no matter which weekday the game showed when I saved, it reverts to sunday. This mostly causes problems with the shops restocking (at least Gun Runners didn't restock to me after I first visited them, but also some quests which require you to wait several days won't work correctly. It's apparently a known bug that happens on some computers.

    I actually removed the Bugfix compilation because I kept reading online how it causes crashes in many quad core units. I have also tried any and every fix that there is on the new including editing the Fallout.ini to be compatible with my processor. I have 65+ mods installed and it crashes every 10 mins if im lucky...

    Constant CTDs? Are you using the Community Bugfix Patch?

    Been playing for over 60 hours with ~40 Mods and not a single crash.
