Fable 2 Pub Games Exploit Fixed

360 News from N4G | Fable 2

360 - Fable 2 - Fable 2 Pub Games Exploit Fixed

Lionhead Studios released a patch for the Fable 2 Pub Games that resets the Fortunes Tower leaderboards and fixes the famous gold exploit.

Peter Molyneux said a few days ago that this was an "intentional" bug, so how come they are fixing it now? And will Lion Head keep their promise to "punish" those who cheated?

I guess we will have to wait for October 21 to get our answers…

Pub Games is Patched ... Or is It?

360 News from N4G | Fable 2

360 - Fable 2 - Pub Games is Patched ... Or is It?

The parade of bloviation about the Fable II Pub Games exploit just will not die down. Of course, first Peter Molyneux said that cheaters would be "in for a surprise" if they tried to transfer their ill-gotten wealth to Fable II, once it releases. Then a couple sites spotted something curious in IGN's Fable II preview, in which Molyneux implied the glitch was actually a deliberate inclusion. Now Lionhead Studios has put out a patch, although someone is claiming that drive maintenance will reactivate the exploit.

Fable 2 Pub Games glitch was intentional

360 News from N4G | Fable 2

360 - Fable 2 - Fable 2 Pub Games glitch was intentional

Eurogamer writes: "Peter Molyneux has claimed that the Fable 2 Pub Games glitch, which allowed bets to be increased ten-fold by some timely button pressing, was absolutely intentional.

And those who cheated, will have a surprise waiting for them in Fable 2. The crafty old blighter.

The Fable 2 Pub Games are rubbish, but allow players to accrue gold that can be transferred into Fable 2 when the game launches on 24th October."

Peter Molyneux Believes 'Fable II' Solves The 'Han Solo Problem'

360 News from N4G | Fable 2

360 - Fable 2 - Peter Molyneux Believes 'Fable II' Solves The 'Han Solo Problem'

MTV Multiplayer's Patrick Klepek writes:

"If you're like me, you play morality-filled games as a generally good person the first time around. The second time, you experiment being the bad guy.

Stephen Totilo asked "Fallout 3? producer Todd Howard if he'd solved what Totilo called the "Han Solo Problem," where it's seldom as fun to play as a mix of nice guy and bad guy, since games tend to only reward only extreme behavior.

Howard claimed "Fallout 3? hadn't completely solved it, but "Fable II" designer Peter Molyneux told me last week it will be fun to play as a character with mixed morality in "Fable II" because it's difficult to be truly good or evil.

His team may have solved the "Han Solo problem."

"With Han Solo, how good is good? Can you get as good as Luke Skywalker? Even he wasn't truly good."

Molyneux explained one way he prevents players from so easily being swayed to being perfectly good when they play the game is through sacrifice."

'Fable II' Community Lead Describes Challenges Of Passionate, Critical Fans

360 News from N4G | Fable 2

360 - Fable 2 - 'Fable II' Community Lead Describes Challenges Of Passionate, Critical Fans

Gamers are a vocal bunch, and Lionhead Studios' fans are no different.

Lionhead's senior community manager Sam Van Tilburgh, who's been with the company since "Fable," is the guy responsible for watching over the fanbase as "Fable II" nears.

And while others working on "Fable II" start to plan vacations, his responsibilities are ramping up because much of the community effect comes after launch.

"My crunch only gets worse," he told MTV at this year's PAX. "When the game comes out, people start playing it and then everyone's got an opinion!"
