Bodies Disappearing?

Post » Thu Nov 15, 2012 6:02 pm

I had two instances where unconsious bodies have disappeared. I noticed this when I was playing the High Overseer mission. The first time, I was in the area where Dr. Galvani's office is located. I would drop down and perform a non-lethal tankedown. I then picked up the body, and blinked to a rooftop, where I would diposit my body. I noticed a few times that when I would come back to the rooftop, that there would be bodies missing. I'm not sure where they went, but I know they weren't eatten by rats.

The second time it happened was in the High Overseer's room where he plans to have a drink with Curnow. I drop into the room and spill both drinks then get to a high position. They both come into the room and I sleep dart both of them. I drop down, and pick up Curnow, and blink to the ledge above the room. I drop him off, and go back down for Campbell. I pick him up, and blink again up to the ledge. It's at this point that I notice Curnow's body is gone. I turn on Dark vision to see if I can see where the body went, but it's not in the room or on the ledge.

I play on pc and this happens to me sometimes. Mainly in the boyle party. I have the settings maxed out and my pc can handle it. I think its something arkane put in to keep the game from slowing down.

Yes, happens to me too.... typically when I dump several bodies into close proximity to each other. Doesn't seem to affect anything.

I believe it's garbage collection. Like HavingPhun said, so it doesn't slow down. Happens to me a bit here and there too.

I don't mind the "garbage collection" but when a body disappears, that I want to complete the side mission for, (Saving Curnow from being poisoned/killed, and taking him to the safe place in the dumpster) it's annoying.

Ahh I missed that part. Yeah that is pretty annoying. I haven't had that happen yet, but I'm sure it will.
