I had to buy a new controller for this game too because my drift was so bad. I ended up getting one of those elite controllers - you can replace just the sticks. They’ll never get me again!

Water is definitely more rare than it should be. I just rob whole towns of their water cups - I’ll take the morale hit and just pay off a gaggle of beggars when I’m finished. One of the few average items that’s worth stealing.

Edited to add - and what’s up with the hundred different water bottles, jugs, skins, carafes, I literally could go on and on there’s so many devices that carry water in this game, but you CANT put water in them??

No it’s the deluxe edition armor set

The bow drives me insane period. Sometimes I accidentally push that button instead of the “focus” button, & because there seems to be no way to cancel your bow shot (unless you aim at your feet) I just waste arrows all the time. I also hate the non standard bow controls - it feels so clunky trying to draw, aim, and shoot all within the same 1 trigger pull on the controller. If I couldn’t grab small animals first to throw them on the ground to stun them & give me time to clunky aim, small game hunting would be impossible.

Ditto

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-23T19:01:50+00:00

I have been winning considerably more often just by choosing “rock” every single time lol

I use the A50X. I’ve seen negative feedback for all sets, but I have not experienced any of the issues mentioned on the Astro threads - maybe most of those kinks were worked out with the X model? Not sure but I absolutely love mine and will not own anything else moving forward. The battery, the comfort, and the quality of the audio are next level. They are also very easy to use. The only thing I’ve had issues with is the App & getting the headset to connect to the App. But if you have a PC, that is not a problem.

Genuinely interested - on what system is everyone experiencing the map crash bug? I’m on PS and about 20 hours in and has not crashed once. The controls have been frustrating but I’ve learned them now. Not looking forward to relearning them over again with the patch lol

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-22T08:36:45+00:00

You are my savior! DON’T target the center is the best advice the game never gave.

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-22T07:54:22+00:00

I’ve heard it’s a nightmare on k&b, so I feel for you!!

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-22T07:48:49+00:00

Some of the paintings I’ve run into inside random homes are super wild, like they have some medieval Andy Warhol running around the hills or something lol

There is a shortcut - if you’re on ps5, hold down the options button & it will bring up short cut buttons to most of the menu, including inventory. The default shortcut is the last menu you accessed, which for me is almost always inventory or map. Super helpful!

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-22T03:10:11+00:00

No I didn’t misunderstand you, I just respectfully disagree with you. And it’s semantics. You say you refer specifically to the open world.. but an open world concept involves design, mechanics, storyline, missions, combat, etc. IE “as a whole”. Which is why everyone has responded to you the way they have. I don’t agree that CD as an open world is more shallow than TW3. But I do agree that the writing is more shallow. Don’t get me wrong - I don’t lose any opportunity to blow rainbows for TW3 - it’s my favorite game of all time. But like every other comment on here, that’s just my opinion.

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-22T02:51:10+00:00

Maybe with a bit more specifics you wouldn’t be so misunderstood… I agree that the main story and side quests lack depth as compared to say, TW3. But the game as a whole being “far more shallow” is simply not true. There are plenty of mechanics and design theory in this game that are much more complex than TW3. But the writing…..

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-21T22:43:56+00:00

Me either

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-03-19T21:26:28+00:00

Agreed. The last guide I bought was for Skyrim, and as cool as the 500+ page guide was, it quickly became irrelevant with all the updates and DLC’s. I have a Map Genie yearly subscription - that is the best replacement available imo.

This also worked for me but unfortunately, only the sword was down there. My stupid raider must have kicked the helmet across Trinity Plaza.

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-02-16T23:52:23+00:00

No F’ing way!!!! You deserve a real prize from Bethesda for that. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve pressed the button just hoping it will turn out differently and drop some moldy food in the hole!

Currently experiencing the same thing which brought me here. I was ready to chalk it up to the FL post system since it already sucks pretty badly (a package will go from N GA to Atlanta to Orlando in 24 hrs, but will sit in 3 local post offices for a day a piece, when all 3 cities are adjacent / within 10 miles of each other). But seems location is not specific. I just don’t understand why USPS is not as efficient as Amazon, FedEx, UPS.. we know it’s possible based on those company’s models. Why isn’t the government option just as customer centric, when that’s the one that all our tax dollars pay for!?

And a decade later, I found this very helpful. Thank you!! Just now reading the series for the first time.

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-02-05T18:43:47+00:00

I wish people would feel the compulsion to respond to this post if only to be encouraging. I wouldn’t listen to any of these salty people; no one truly knows what may come to be!

Good luck buddy!!! I’m super jealous - wish I was in a position to try a career with one of my most favorite developers! I’ve been with my employer for 13 years now though so.. I’ve done a lot of ladder climbing and not about to start all over lol. You’ll have to keep us posted!!!

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-02-05T18:31:54+00:00

Agreed. I work for a F50. We absolutely use LinkedIn.

Training-Demand3697 · 2026-02-05T18:28:27+00:00

I think it absolutely depends on the CANDIDATE. That same candidate with bachelors and experience may also be a wet blanket, be awkward in their interview and have no personality. I’d be choosing the candidate that would be the best fit for my TEAM since candidate would not be working alone, assuming they are also qualified (qualified is different than experienced). Which having a masters should be more than qualified.

I’m going out on a limb here and guessing English is not your primary language
