Why is Old World Blues taking so long?

As in, why isn't it being released in the indicated month of June, instead pushed back to July? Matt Grandstaff notes.<blockquote>We've been working on a new title update to optimize the New Vegas experience, which contains a number of requested bug fixes (we'll have more on to release). We felt it was important to get that ready before releasing Old World Blues, and as a result, it's now coming in July instead of June.

When we have a finalized date for Lonesome Road, we'll share it with everyone. </blockquote>If that sounds silly to you, remember that these have to go on Xbox and PS3, meaning they first have to have the patch run through certification, and then the DLC. If you want to blame anyone, blame the certification process, it seems the most likely culprit.
 
Ok I will.

*Drops to knees and looks at the sky in anger*

DAMN YOU CERTIFICATION PROCESS!

DAAAAAAAAAAAMN YOOOOU!

*punches ground and weeps in anger*
 
I think certification process is a pretty cool guy eh delays releases and doesn't afraid of anything

This is the funniest post I've read this week.
 
How about fixing the damn bug that prevents me from playing Caravan? I've never completed a game of Caravan in almost 200 hours of playing New Vegas. Why include an unplayable mini-game?

Edit: At first I thought I just didn't understand the rules of the game, then I realized it was bugged and the only button that works is the 'discard card' button.

Turns out their instructions weren't complete. You use the the up and down keys if on PC to change where the card goes in a stack vertically. Also, if you push up enough you can place cards on your opponents stacks to mess their totals up.

I had the same problem till I read about this myself.
 
..................................................................Seriously?



:facepalm:

Edit: No wait a minute, my problem is that the "select card" option is always grayed out so all I can do is discard cards. Is this a bug or will the arrow keys fix it?
 
So, besides consoles dumb down games, they now delay them?
And you people want me to like a PS3, Xbox, Wii or whatever?

Tsc...
 
I think be default its set to place the card under what is already there, so you have to press down to put it on top. Also you can place the cards anywhere within a pile wile in the process of placing one.

You can't select face cards as your first for caravans. Left and right arrow keys should change which card you want to select.
 
well at least we will get another patch.

ALso I never could finish a Caravan game, I suck at card games, even at playing yu-gi-oh I suck.
 
Heh, I even read the caravan rules a lot, but I just don't get it. I hate card games and I want them to burn in hell.
 
considering how buggy a typical Obsidian/Bethesida product is i have no problem with them taking their time and trying to do it right. And props for them to be working on bug fixes instead of just going to EZ route and shoveling off even more DLC while ignoring bugs (more so then they already have anyway....)

Tis unexpected of them Fallout 3 GOTY was never patched and was in dire need of it I hope they ensure the laggyness and crash to a minimum.
