You will have lots of fun with it. Which character are you using??
Top Gear Top Tip: Don’t throw your best weapon at them, but instead use weapons you can easily find. Sometimes thrown weapons DO get lost.

I picked up the game over a month ago and was able to play it through a couple times without any glitches.

You never lost any thrown weapon that magically disappeared into the environment?

I always threw POS items that I didn’t intend on retrieving anyway, so I really wouldn’t have noticed that. I did get one of those ram’s to get into a dumpster that he couldn’t get out of.
Regardless, the game was 100% playable for me.

you are just lucky then. the most recent update went through right around when you must have bought the game, because thousands of people including myself had or still are having issues. most were resolved, but there still are some big glitches yet. Like immediately losing big weapons you make at the workshops(such as the five rare developer mod weapons)

I’d punch the shit for a loop if it did that to me. Fuck. That sucks, because the game is super enjoyable overall.

I loved playing the game when I got it, but then issues arose and it lost it’s appeal. It sucks too because this could’ve prolly been one of the few great games of 2011 if everything went smoothly.
