Maybe it is such a bug fest you can't even write a patch? AARRRRGGGG.Obsidian let it be known that I won't be burned by your company again.
I will not buy NWN 2 until I am SURE that it is bug free and stable. I will not buy ANY game from you until it has been patched. Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg Got tired of waiting and finished the game as is. No reason not to,since the patch won't ass any content. Just bug fixes. There weren't any game stoppers or any bad bugs so the patch wouldn't have done much for me anyway.

No it doesn't. Try influencing Atton so his alignment changes. His alignment goes back to neutral. It's a bug preventing you from doing things which probably open up more of the game content.

It's great that they go it working on both AMD and Intel though, im sure even you wouldve been pissed off if it didnt work on your computer just becuase you chosed 'wrong'.

choice in gfx boards. Well you can for writing them poorly I guess. Or not consulting with ATI to resolve an issue. Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg Courageous wrote: LOL, 'burned'?

I didn't see 'Nvidia Card only' on the box. Class action lawsuit, anyone?

That said, I'm about 90% of the way through, and I've only encountered one major bug with my Radeon 9500 - the first time I entered the ship docking with Peragus, the screen went completely black, even though the cut scene audio continued and the game was still working.

Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg Thusly 'Paul Fedorenko' Spake Unto All: What's the problem with KOTOR2 and ATI video cards? Just asking since the game seems to run fine for me. More than likely that ATI does not have a fully functioning OpenGL API.
Never have, probably never will. Most, if not all, OpenGL games have issues with ATI cards. Yes, the developers can work around missing/buggy calls, but it'd be better if ATI got their act together and finally wrote functioning drivers.
They work great for Direct3D games, though. Fun Fact of the Day: In exit polls at the election 2004 the percentage of American voters citing moral and ethical values as their prime concern was 22 percent, continuing a trend of.decreasing. perceived importance of morals: In the 2000 election 35 percent cited morals & ethical values as their prime concern, and in 1996 a whopping 40%, almost twice as many as in 2004. (Bet you hadn't gotten that impression from the press, had you?).

Try influencing Atton so his alignment changes. His alignment goes back to neutral. Never noticed that.
I tried to get Bao-Dur, Visas, Disciple and Handmaiden to LS mastery during my first two games but their alignment stayed put once it reached the point just below the top. So I watched their alignment bars closely and I sure would have noticed something like you described.
Never bothered with Atton and Mira once I had heard their stories, because I didn't like them much. Of course, later I learned that only Consulars (and perhaps some Consular-style prestige classes) are supposed to be able to lead their sidekicks to alignment mastery, with some class-specific feat or other. You can call that a design bug if you will and I'd agree, but Bioware used a similar approach for selling the Scout/Sentinel classes (via HK-47) in the original game. It's a bug preventing you from doing things which probably open up more of the game content. Sidekick alignment does not change anything besides appearance, apart from mastery boni.
This could have been done better, and it leads to incongruous situations like (almost) light side master Visas wanting to commit random gratuitous mass murder of civilians and acting peeved if you forbid this. So in this particular case this particular bug seems to be of little consequence. There are some more bugs, some inherited from the original game, some new. Some can be rather annoying for a moment, like when you touch a door while stealthed and the game cancels stealth because the door has a 'helpful' popup message attached to it (old bug from KotOR). So the game certainly isn't bugfree and it certainly isn't as polished as it could have been.
But would you call it a bugfest? Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg On 2005-04-01, Darth Frog wrote: shadows in: On 2005-03-31, Darth Frog wrote:. LOL, 'burned'?

So I watched their alignment bars closely and I sure would have noticed something like you described. Never bothered with Atton and Mira once I had heard their stories, because I didn't like them much. It's a real bug. Atton will have his alignment reset with any reloads. I didn't care at first either but it bugs me now and I want the patch to fix the issue before playing again. Of course, later I learned that only Consulars (and perhaps some Consular-style prestige classes) are supposed to be able to lead their sidekicks to alignment mastery, with some class-specific feat or other.
You can call that a design bug if you will and I'd agree, but Bioware used a similar approach for selling the Scout/Sentinel classes (via HK-47) in the original game. Where does it say you need a specific prestige class? In the manual? I'll need to check it out when I get home.
So the game certainly isn't bugfree and it certainly isn't as polished as it could have been. But would you call it a bugfest? No but there are a handful of bugs which are glaring enough to ruin the game for me in some ways. One other bug is in Nar Shadaa with the quests affecting the refugees.
Everything felt broken whichever way I went about doing it. Archived from groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg 'Paul Fedorenko' writes: What's the problem with KOTOR2 and ATI video cards? Just asking since the game seems to run fine for me. There's very bad slowdown in some places. Nar Shaddaa is where I first noticed it, in the main area near a parked airspeeder. The airspeeder won't be parked there when you get to Nar Shaddaa, though, and you don't really have to walk near it.
This slowdown thing happens on Dantooine as well. It helped to turn off frame buffer effects in the video settings. Apparently it's good to have somewhat oldish Catalyst drivers, I have 4.9 or 4.10 with my 9600.

moral: Buy Nvidia cards. They may or may not be faster than their ATI counterpart. But at least they work in all games without having to wait for a patch I didn't need a patch for my X800 - though I did have to roll back the driver. I think the average PC gamer would be frustrated at having to roll back drivers. This certainly fixed the issue for you but its a major inconvenience when you have two games that work with two driver revisions. I certainly wouldn't put up with it which is why I'm willing to pay 200-300% more for an Nvidia card.
