I love how games can have problems, but now days those problems can be fixed! I wish they had that kind of technology back when Perfect Dark was released on the N64! It had a horrible framerate at times.
So are all the glitches fixed now as well? I think people enjoy the glitches, as long as it does not break the game they should just leave them there. |
I doubt the game will ever be bug free, Oblivion after a years worth of patches and a fan made patch that fixes literally 100s of things still has some bugs after all.
This patch fixes mostly quest bugs and performance/crashes
