Standing stones found glitch

Post » Wed May 23, 2012 7:31 am

Somewhere between ten and fifty hours into this game, I thought something was wrong when I'd got my trophy for finding some standing stones, because I'd only found a couple, but what the hey, I was content.

Then sometime later I realised I'd got the trophy for 'finding 13 stones', despite only having found about 5 stones. Huh, ok, It's Bethesda, glitches are their specialty. Moving on.

And then 210 hours later I'm looking at my statistics screen and its telling me I've found 24 stones.

What?

Seriously, what?

Is there any point in having a statistics tab anymore?

Where exactly are you looking to show that you found the stones?

Is it possible you have somehow mixed up the standing stones with the "24 Stones of Barenziah" that you need for the quest "No Stone Unturned".

Since you say that is shows 24 stones, that would be my guess.

That has been a glitch since launch. It counts every time you go back to a standing stone you've already discovered as discovering a new one. Easy way to get a trophy at least....

Oh yeah, it's definitely standing stones and not the friggin unmoveable Berenziah stones. Whose bright idea was it to have us collect 24 stones that actually weigh something? I mean I've built my stamina up but still it's unneeded hassle.

Anyway, my point still stands about the standing stones. What's the point in the statistics screen if they're going to be inaccurate? Who knows what other statistics are messed up!
