Wasteland 2 Director's Cut is now out on Steam and GOG(7.8 gigs update on Steam). If you already own the game you will get the Director's Cut as a free update, note that this will break existing saves. The game is out today in the US for PS4 and XBone retail with releases on the 16th and later for international territories.

As part of this update quirks, perks and precision targeting have been added to the game. Quirks are Wasteland 2's version of traits/backgrounds. Each character can select one of them at character creation and they offer a benefit and a drawback for your character. Perks are rather self explanatory, bonuses you can select during levelling up. Precision targeting is Wasteland 2's called shot/aimed shot/VATS functionality, which allows your characters to target specific bodyparts for increased effect. Here is a video outlining the character system:

Also as part of the update the game has been port over to Unity 5 game engine which has allowed a graphical overhaul. Combat and the game in general has been rebalanced with new cover, weapons and changed loot. More voice acting has been added to the game.

Here what MMORPG had to say about the Director's Cut:
At first, when I heard about the Wasteland 2: Director’s Cut from inXile Entertainment, I thought it was just a clever branding trick to release the game on consoles. Then I played it, and quickly realized that it’s the true definitive version of the crowdfunded RPG that rocked our socks off last year.

Installing now! Gonna be great fun to play.

I'm gonna save AG Center instead of Highpool this time around. And last time I played I fucked up Rail nomads camp so I'm gonna do it right this time. Also when I played last autumn the Canyon of Titan was so buggy that I didn't manage to finish it in a good way so thats something thats gonna be fun to finally be able to complete.

Can you comment afterwards on your experience? Did the performance improve, how is combat and the bugs?
 
Trying to install and start the game but fucking Steam keeps telling me to download new clients over and over again. WTF Steam? >_<

FYI, there was also a launch trailer posted.

Some reviewers actually criticized the game on account there wasn't enuogh music. To few tracks and so on and not as distinctive tracks as in Fallout.
 
Yup, Mark had plagiarised Aphex Twin alright. He would have got his arse busted nowadays, since there's much stricter law in US/EU - ACTA.
 
The "Vats of Goo" and "Radiation Storm" are almost pure copies of the originals, the other ones had a bit more work done on them. Does not bother me ALL that much, since it's a game soundtrack and it's a kickass soundtrack, what i'm amazed at, is how different all the originals are, he seems to be a very deep crate digger to find and mix up all that stuff.

I wonder if all of his tracks are plagiarized?
 
Anyone knows how to talk to your companions? If I hold the mouse cursor over Angela Deth you can converse with her if you press the right mouse buttom but when I do nothing happens.
 
Ahhh, Gold Slouch my favourite! I remember that watching The Stand I always had the feeling one ... was inspired by the other, just not if Mark Morgan by the Stand or the Stand from Mark Morgan.

I am really surprised that no one ever actually sued Mark with so many similarities.
 
this game needs a forum like what this one is to fallout.

With you guys being the people you normally critizise in the Fallout area
