"Slipped past QA" is probably incorrect - I would guess that it's a time/money issue: The developers didn't have the time to fix the lower priority issues.

Damn obvious for people who work with commercial software. Patching system made suits in gaming companies more "resource aware".
It's a form of guerilla testing, when you give a product in last phases of testing, to commercial customers to find the problems.

It's cost effective and gives significant coverage. What's a team of 20, when you have a million or two people playing the game.

claud34193d ago

Noting new. And all games be them old or new. Will have bugs and glitches

That's gaming

camel_toad4193d ago (Edited 4193d ago )

I remember back in the old days (when dirt was the latest technology) and console games didn't have the ability to receive patches. They had to actually test thoroughly for bugs back then.

Blastoise4193d ago

Those were good days.

Games just used to like, work.

claud34193d ago

true, but the bugs just like now. Can be exploited and be fun

GTA 3, OBLIVION, SKYRIM to name a few

RedSoakedSponge4193d ago

remember guys, games are a lot more complex than they were back then. a lot more complex means harder to make a bug free game.

jd6664193d ago (Edited 4193d ago )

I got stuck in a doorway and had to quit game!!

Heisenburger4193d ago

I got stuck.... in a bush.

-_-

Still loving it though!

SAE4193d ago

i cant even describe where i got stuck ...

but i went underground just like call of duty

Bathyj4193d ago

I'm not very far into it but I've already noticed a rifle floating in the air, the Captain of the ship was talking to me in a cinematic but not moving his lips, and for some strange reason when I was freeing the captives the Y axis on the camera was disabled which made it really hard to look around.

RufustheKing4193d ago

@Bathyj

LOL the non-moving lips was funny. i got stuck when i was bringing in the captives to the fort so had to restart.

Campy da Camper4193d ago

Dude! Same here. First mission to go get that chest thing with my 2 companions and rifle was floating in the air. Also, Captains lips didn't move. Lol, he was face yelling at me kind of funny. He just head bobbed me with vigor...

Bathyj4193d ago

At first I thought, who the hells talking to me?

BlmThug4193d ago (Edited 4193d ago )

Gratefully I haven't run into any gamebreaking or even moderate bugs yet :D Although I am taking my sweet time with this game as im still on sequence two and I started playing it since monday so I guess the major bugs may await me for when I progress further into the game

ZenPoet4191d ago

Good luck with the crafting system later. It seems to be busted completely.

Games with the dumbest NPCs

Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.

Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩

Flawlessmic264d ago

How did redfall not make the cut.

anast264d ago (Edited 264d ago )

Every Bethesda game and Every Halo game. This list needed to have Cyberpunk somewhere.

My first thought was the safe rooms in the resident evil series. When you hear that enchanting music you know you’re safe.

Killer2020UK270d ago

I literally just came here to post this. That music in the Resi 1 safe rooms is playing in my head.

Rimeskeem269d ago

I was thinking TLOU work benches. Although I remember one time where it was a false security.

closed_account269d ago

Perfect. 👌👌

I'd add the top of my highrise apartment in GTA Online. That calm, quiet peace, just knowing as soon as I step out that door I will be bombarded by 8 and 12 year olds calling each other n**** and f****, trolled by combat jets and rocket launchers.

The entire map of SotC is peaceful as hell. Used to just ride around exploring it.

mastershredder269d ago (Edited 269d ago )

Afterlife in Cyberpunk 2077 is a peaceful area? Erm, hands down and very hard to miss, Misty Olszewski's Esoterica is the absolute epitome of peaceful areas in that game.

raiden_188269d ago

The "last of us" deer location i found to be a welcoming respite. It was nice to not have someone trying to eat me.

RPGer269d ago

Kingdom Hearts tend to present half peaceful areas and most of them are amazing.

'Assassin’s Creed III': Ten Years Later

With the recent reveal of Assassin’s Creed Mirage and the promise that the series will return to its roots, there hasn’t been a better time to get stuck into Assassin’s Creed’s back catalog, whether it’s replaying an old favorite or getting lost in previously looked-over classic.

Ten years later, we miss the old you, Assassin's Creed.

Popsicle544d ago (Edited 544d ago )

I really enjoyed Assassins Creed 3. My only complaint was that I didn’t enjoy when I had to switch from Connor to Desmond. It’s a personal preference, but Connor’s story was just more fun for me.

On a side note, Black flag was the most enjoyable of the AC games I played.
