Cryxo: How bad are the bugs in Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth on Vista 64bit?
Tantrix: There is a heavy bug in a late chapter, not to spoiler much, you have to shoot through a lense to zoom at your enemy. The bug is, that the zoom option is out and you can't shoot your goal, meaning you can't continue the game. There isn't any solution from the developers, in the official forum they ignored the mass demands of a patch.
I managed to overpass it by a new save but well, it sucked. If CoC gets on GoG(o lol), I really hope this will be debugged.
Well, it's no doubt a buggy game, but to say that the bugs have been "overlooked by the developers" is entirely wrong.
When the PC version was released, the original developers were already out. They were bankrupt, they had disbanded, they had ceased to be. The game was finished by a single person, using his spare time in order to press the game into a state which was even publishable.
I don't blame him for ignoring the support requests afterwards. If you're going to blame someone, blame Bethesda for not picking up the ball and assigning any of their resources to the game after the original developers went bust.
