Sneak bug?

Post » Wed Dec 22, 2010 4:21 pm

I'm not sure if this always occurred or if it started because of the patch because I really have not been playing much hoping for many fixes to the game. That being said, I really did not notice this problem before the patch. I'm noticing that whenever I sneak, it can often lock me out of everything. Meaning, I can move and jump. However, I hit escape doesn't work. I try to aim down the sights, doesn't work. I try to loot a body, open a door, or even look at my pip boy and it doesn't work. The only fix I have come across is that I have to fire my weapon over and over and eventually it fires off and everything works again. The only problem is that this defeats the purpose of using sneak if I have to fire off my weapon to get myself out of this predicament. I tried searching for this but have yet to find anything similar to this. Anyone else experiencing this?

Seems related to the reload bug that came with the recent patch. As far as I know I don't think there is a solution other than firing your weapon to get out of that "locked up" state.

Look around the reload bug threads.
