Absolutely engrossed in this game. I hate the crashes and the bugs and I think the recent patch only fixed most of the exploits and corpses(except for the ash piles! so becareful energy weapon users) rather than the bugs. Also, I just spent a ridiculous amount of time on my first playthrough to have Boone and ED-E fucking disappear after I left Lucky 38 casino. After a little tooling around on the internet, this is a common problem and sometimes going to Vault 22 and using the elevator will magically respawn them back at your side. So now I have to go to Vault 22 to continue my game! ARGH!
