Noted Quest Bugs (No whining or flaming please)

Post » Mon May 14, 2012 6:22 pm

When was the last time you listened to someone being rude and whining? Never, me either.

Now, if we explain issues we encounter in a succinct and CALM manner Bethesda will respect that and likely take action sooner. So let's get started posting our quest bugs or seconding ones already posted.

I played for 20 hours before my first bug and it was on the companions quest. I accepted Kodlak's mission to kill the witches for their heads. I went off and played about 3 hours before actually killing them, and now no matter how I handle the witches the quest line breaks. That is, when I return to Jarvaskrr, the Silver Hand has attacked and Kodlak is dead. After Vilkas chastises me he just goes back to his normal behavior. I have tested this many ways including loading very old saves and finishing the quest, dismissing Lydia, eradicating the witches, not eradicating them. You get the idea.

Now it's your turn to second or post new bugs, please. If we act politely (no matter how upsetting this is) things WILL get done.

Sorry to go slightly off topic with a probably extremely dumb question >.< im currently questing like crazy so any bugs i find ill post here :) anyhoo say i come across bugs that prevent continuation of quest, if said bug is patched could i simply carry on the quest or would i have to start a new game for the patch to take effect?

I guess it depends on the details of your glitch; I've just decided to play around the bug because I like the character I've built. If you encounter any issues please report them (preferably here in one place) to make Bethesda's job easier.

Im currently questing like crazy so i have saved the thread ;) guess the best thing to do is make a save before you attempt the quest so any problems you can revert back and note the quest down to avoid until patch.

In the thieves guild quest "taking care of business" Brynjolf doesn't move to the Ragged Flaggen, he just stays at his market stall. He has the new quest dialogue and everything. Everyone is still distracted by him even though the dude who i gave the ring got arrested. This quest had kinda broken Riften because almost everyone is distracted at the market place 24/7 and won't move. I have tried to punch him and make him move, i have waited for 3 days, but nothing is happening. He is just stuck at his stall distracting everyone.

Other people are having this problem also. It isnt just me..

The Blood on the Ice "the butcher" quest will not start at all for me in windhelm (no dead susanna the wicked on the grave, even after leaving the city multiple times). This bug appears to be preventing me from buying a house in windhelm.

That happened to me as well, b/c the dog returns to the daedric temple where his master is waiting. As soon as you go to the dungeon where you need to retrieve the item Vile wants Barbas will be waiting for you.

When I finish "Loud and Clear" for the Thieves Guild, the next quest won't initiate. I've talked to Maven and none of her dialogue options start anything.

I just made a thread about this but no one seems to be taking any notice so I'll just post it here instead.

Whenever I try to talk to Esbern he acts like he is talking back (lips and arms moving) but his voice doesn't play. I also got a quest
update after "speaking" with him, so sound is the only issue.
