I've read statements that say the fan-made fixes included in the GOG version fixed the bugs in the official version. But actually, the GOG version still includes a lot of bugs. I can play the game despite the bugs by reloading an older saved when bugs happen, but anyway I thought I should create this thread to make clear that bugs are still in the GOG version.
Here are some of the bugs I've experienced:
- I often get stuck on the fence door in the pawnshop in Santa Monica, and cannot move. When this happens, the only possible solution is to reload a saved game, or maybe use the noclip cheat code in the console...I didn't try noclip on this problem but I assume it might work.
- I knocked Jezebel Locke into the ceiling of her room, where she remained stuck. I could actually still hit her while she was up there, but I reloaded anyway because that seemed like cheating.
- When I was running down the huge staircase of the Confession club, I tried jumping over the edge of the platform to save some time. At first it seemed to work: I appeared to be successful with jumping off the platform. But soon after I jumped, this led to a bug in which my screen became 100% black and I couldn't see anything else. So I had to reload a saved game.
- When I was fighting Bishop Vick, I exited his room to put myself a better strategic position and to regain my health. However, even though the game let me exit the room with the normal exit/enter function, that same function would not work to let me re-enter Vick's room. I don't know if the bug here is in allowing my exit, or forbidding my re-entry. Either way, I therefore would have had to reload a saved game...but at this point I got fed up and decided to search for a noclip cheat code, and luckily I found one. I was able to re-enter Vick’s room with the noclip code and then turn it off and continue playing as normal. Of course, it would have been better if that bug wasn’t there in the first place.
