Xbox 360 Complete Bug/Glitch List v2

Post » Tue Feb 01, 2011 1:34 pm

Updated the list again. Thanks everyone.


work around:
The "cards-appearing-in-inventory-not-deck" bug can be worked around by moving the cards into an empty container (ammo box, wardrobe etc) then copying them back to your inventory 1 by 1. you hear a double click as they are added to the deck and they no longer appear as separate items.



Thanks, I'll try that. They should still fix it though.

I'm pretty sure this is on the list already but this is a new version that I have found-

You can't remove quest items from your inventory.

This applies to Van Graff combat armor you can steal from the chest outside of the silver rush. You can never sell, drop or destroy it because it is a "Quest item" from the Guard quest that occurs outside the Silver Rush. This means you are stuck with a permanent extra 25lb of weight you can't get rid of. Not a huge deal, but still seems to be a bug.

Great post man. Hopefully we'll have an ETA on some of these soon.

Tasp, another example of that is the disassembled weapons shipment.


(pre-order item) Weathered 10mm + Silencer Mod Visual & VATS problems (pull up the gun and only shows your hands holding nothing, and screen turns shade of white)
This should be a simple fix of not allowing the pistol to be modded because I assume it has a different model than the standard gun, and if, after modding it you equip it and go third person the screen isn't white, it's a giant red box with a white exclamation mark on it.

When going into Vault 11 to retrieve the parts for the Brotherhood air filtration system, the game locks up and forces me to shut down the XBox.

When trying to buy from a travelling merchant the game locks up. Another shut down.

This is getting very tiring. I have now put the game away.

Add this to the list....copy post from seperate thread I started:

found a new bug....along with the difficulty of getting into the Strip as well as numerous other bugs that have been posted which I am experiencing....in regards to the Train Tunnel south of nellis.

After unlocking the door and dispatching a few ghouls....there is a door to the left about midway thru the tunnel where a Glowing one is crouched...

Killed the Glow Ghoul....went to go up the stairs into this area....and fell thru the floor, then respawned at the other end of the tunnel where I immediately set off some frag mines and died. Tried re-loading and jumping onto the stairs...as well as moving trash cans to use to jump onto the stairs....all to no avail.

Seems like there is no way to get into this area without falling thru the floor.

Please add this to the patch list!!!!

I have three bugs actually.
Quest Bug:
First off I don't think you mentioned the bug involving Raul's quest in which you must talk to Sterling, Loyal and Ranger Andy, but after talking to Ranger Andy, Raul does not seem to register that he was talked to because his quest will not continue.
Visual Bug:
Secondly the Pipboy screen will sometimes glow bright green to the point of not being able to even see what is being shown on it, although saving and then reloading does seem to solve this issue.
Visual Bug:
And thirdly another visual error is that sometimes when I have a weapon out it will disappear from the screen even though it is not holstered, and only going into your Pipboy then out again seems to solve this, but also the issue that when the weapon is out sometimes your hand and the weapon will alter its angle on the screen and go between the normal angle and the bug angle over and over again.

And thanks for compiling this list.

yes on us! we paid $60 to be unofficial beta testers!

i'm starting to get the eerie suspicion that this game may never be fixed. it's been nearly a month and all of these bugs are still present (with more being found every day), and the patch will most likely only fix the "game breaking" bugs.

i wonder if a class action lawsuit might get these guys attention and remind them that the can't sell crap and get away with it.


To be fair when Gears Of War 2 was released on the 7th of November 2008 no one saw an update until the 21st January of 2009. Which is about two months after release. The second update wasn't until the 24th of March 2009 again after another two months. Then the third on 28th of July 2009, which was 4 months later. So going off that I'd say we won't see a patch for a little while longer yet.

If anyone does not think this is a fair comparison find me something that is:). As Gears Of Wars had alot of problems on release and probably received alot of anger/frustration from the community aswell.

I'm having three severe issues regarding companion quests:

1) ED-E has simply disappeared, and the "Just wait 7 days!" thing is not helping. She won't return to Primm no matter what I do. I can only assume she got stuck in the landscape somewhere, being lost forever. Funny thing is, I still have the "Enhanced Sensors" perk, and NPCs are still reacting to her. Of course this also makes recruiting Rex impossible.

2) For Raul's unmarked companion quest (I believe it's called "Old School Ghoul"?), I need to speak with three people - Ranger Andy in Novac (done), Corporal Sterling in Camp McCarran/Forlorn Hope (done), and Loyal at Nellis AFB - who has just freaking disappeared as well! I have already completed the "Volare!" quest, and now inside the hangar where he's usually hanging out there is nobody but a few anonymous workers fixing the airplane. I've waited for him inside his house as well, but to no avail. It's like the game simply got rid of him once I'd done all the quests directly involing him. I've read about the possibility of him reappearing somewhere at black mountain, but no, I've already checked every inch of the area.

3) I am unable to complete the "For Auld Lang Syne" quest since Arcade Gannon won't give me the dialog option asking him to follow me anymore. Interestingly, he does have the option if I'm already being followed by another human companion, to which he replies by default. However, once I'm without a human companion, the dialog choice disappears.

Apart from some minor inventory and enemy spawning glitches which could all be helped by reloading a previous save, these are really extremely frustrating issues as they're rendering parts of the game inaccessible. However, I apparently should feel really lucky for not having encountered anything that keeps me from completing the main story...

One other potential bug I'll mention. If you've completed the quest "That lucky old sun" and later find the Euclid C-Finder weapon, you cannot get ammo for it since you need to have that gun with you when you power up Helios one using the 'Archimedes' option during the "That lucky old sun" quest.

If anyone knows of a way to get ammo for the Euclid C-Finder AFTER you've already completed the quest "That Lucky old sun", please let me know. Thanks!

First of all, I have played for over 100 hours so there may be some bugs that are completely random. I quit playing when I started the storyline after getting to talk with Mr. House and was stuck in the Lucky 38. Luckily I had the hat from Caleb McCaffery still or I would be screwed. I'm going to try and categorize the bugs as best I can so bear with me.

Companions

Playing on hardcoe mode, I found it useful to make my companions wait at my Novac hotel room as I could still retain the perks. Not sure if that was intentional but it's better than them dying. Anyway, while questing in Vault 34 I got to the lower levels and to my surprise both companions were waiting for me after the loading screen went away. They were still on the wait command and I had to disband them to return to their original place. It was not a one time deal. It happened again while doing the There Stands the Grass quest in Vault 22. I was okay until I reached the 5th level of the Vault. When I loaded on that level ED-E was waiting for me. This bug comes in handy when you lose a companion as well. For example, Raul disappeared from my hotel room when I fast traveled to Nellis Air Force Base. To fix this I traveled to Vault 22 took the elevator to the 5th level and there he was with ED-E. Hope that helps with some of you that lost a companion.

NPC

One strange bug I encountered was upon fast travelling and re-entering Helios One after getting the Sunshine Boogie quest I left through the back entrance to collect the solar parts and there stood Old Lady Gibsons dogs and two mole rats. I was immediately attacked by the dogs and rats then Old Lady Gibson appeared and attacked. I'm not sure what happened, but I reloaded a previous save and instead of fast travelling to Helios One I walked. Old Lady was at her place as well as her dogs, so no problem there. As I went down the road further though, I was approached by NCR Rangers that chastised me about my faction status. I then entered Helios One, went out the back and there stood Old Ladys dogs again without the Mole Rats. They were not hostile this time around and Lady Gibson was no where in sight. I gathered the solar panels and re entered Helios One. Everyone started running from me without being hostile. Another note is a random fire ant that spawns around the solar panels and the NCR are running around I think because of the hostile dogs in one of the fenced in areas. I returned to Old Lady Gibsons home at a later time to find her dogs had returned.

The Rangers I mentioned above do not track you down and spawn at the same place running at you between the scrapyard and Helios One and where they spawn are two mole rats in the distance... The Rangers give a time frame of 3 days to raise the faction status or they will kill you. I waited five days and returned to the same spot only for them to tell me I still had two days left.

There was a point in the game at Novac right outside the entrance in front of the Neon sign was a Travelling Merchant. I bought all the goods he had except for a knife. Months later and to my surprise he was still standing there with no new inventory and the same knife I left him. I killed the merchant and Brahmin using the bug from the rifle in VATS and a week later his and the Brahmin corpse were gone. No problems have occurred since but I have stayed away from the travelling merchants. Also, there is a Radscorpion that spawns in the same area that may have something to do with it.

At the Legion Raid Camp south of Novac if you attack the Legion stationed there the tied up Powder Gangers can escape freely as if unbound already.

One I'm not sure about is in Vault 34 the ghouls seem to appear out of no where at times and through walls and doors. Not a big deal but hard to sneak around like that.

During the quest Birds of a Feather when guarding the entrance to the Silver Rush at one point you need to move a body out of the view of customers. I tried this numerous times by dragging the body to the right of the building but nothing ever happened. The further I went Simon would accuse me of stealing the armor and kill me. To fix this I moved the corpse to the side just a little and saved and re loaded. He seemed to accept it considering the corpse was now a mass of polygons flying all over Freeside.

Items

After getting the Rock It Launcher Scehematic I can not craft it at a workbench because it does not appear in the list.

The Re Breather attained from Volare cannot be removed from inventory.


Thanks for this post and I hope the ones I listed help. I have many more but I'll see what you can do with these.

A couple of things that I have noticed yet am unsure if they are bugs or not:

Companions:
Veronica : I thumbed through a guide and supposedly Nipton is supposed to trigger dialog with her. No luck with so far. Can anyone confirm/deny that Nipton is one of her triggers?

Locations:
I don't remember the exact name of the location but it's the Powder Ganger camp right next to Jean Sky Diving. The Powder Gangers there are hostile even though I am neutral/accepted with them. Killing the Powder Gangers results in becoming Vilified. Work around - I fast traveled to this location with Boone and hid while he killed them.

Stealing/Karma:
I've noticed this in the Powder Ganger camps, but also in many other places. "Stealing" something after killing everyone makes you lose karma. Not sure if this is a bug, but it seems a little silly to be penalized for stealing after someone tries to murder you.

Location:
Novac - The doctor and a traveling merchant have disappeared. All that's left is a pack Brahmin that doesn't move.

NPC:
Ringo : After giving you a caravan deck, if you ask Ringo on how to play before any other dialog options, the game will freeze. The chat box is present, but no green border to select an option. You can still use start menu commands and you can drop items (you hear the noise), but you can't get out of chat. Restarting the 360 worked as a solution.

Quest: (Once again, not sure if this is a bug or not.)
I Fought the Law : if you warn Eddie of the attack, but do nothing to help (ie: don't attack NCR) the Gangers will win and you receive fame with them, but do not lose NCR fame. On the other hand, if you betray Eddie, but do nothing to help the NCR (ie: don't attack Gangers) the NCR will win and you receive massive infamy with Gangers.

Here is what I've encountered the past couple of days.

Quest Bugs:

1. While doing Auld Lang Syne I needed to complete Lily's quest so I dismissed Arcade. After completing Lily's quest I could not recruit Acrcade until I dismissed Ed-E.
2. After saving President Kimball my status with NCR and Legion was reset to neutral. It was Idolized and Hated respectively before the quest.
3. Upon talking with Hanlon and his subsequent suicide the game crashes exiting the Camp Golf base.
4. I have been attacked by the Caesar Legion assassins once in over 100 hours of play. I was expecting them to be more like the Enclave and Talon Company and appear randomly through out the game.
5. I cannot complete Old School Ghoul. Loyal has disappeared and talking to Ranger Andy does not initiate dialog for Raul.

Item Bugs:

1. The .44 magnum handgun with HD cylinder and scope mods cannot be repaired with a repair kit. Using one DECREASES the condition.
2. Fully repaired items are not showing up with a count in inventory but the invisible copies are using up carrying capacity.
3. The medical supplies, which weigh 10 lbs, were not removed from inventory when I turned in Contrerras.

Map Bugs:

1. In the train tunnel near Nellis I fell into a hole near a side room that keeps moving me back to the entrance.
2. I attempted to walk to the Cazador nest from the Great Kahn location and fell through some of the terrain getting stuck between the ground map and rock map overlay.

Reserved for more bugs.


HUD & Game Functionality Glitches:

This may be considered under, ' -V.A.T.S. not firing and locking player in "VATS Mode" until player is slain', but looks slightly different.

During a fight with some golden geckos, the player was in 1st person view, but everything moved in V.A.T.S. speed WITHOUT the blurry filter effect. I needed to wait until my companion killed the geckos before I returned to my normal movement rate.

Again, this maybe under the above Bug entry, but I'll just mention it here.

Searched and didn't find this one. It's a big one in my mind because it affects the achievement related to collecting all snow globes:

Main quest if you kill Mr House by unplugging him before talking to him; you loose the ability to access the cocktail lounge. This means that you will never be able to access it and retrieve the snow globe from this location. Your only granted access to the presidential suite by Victor. And YES Man has no options to provide you access once he's installed in the mainframe.

This means that the only elevator options available in the Lucky 38 from the casino floor are:
penthouse suite
presidential suite
Stay here.

Cocktail Lounge is never displayed as an option.

Does anyone have a fix for this bug?

Thank You!

Reserved for more bugs.


Questline Bug(s)

After completing 'Come Fly with Me' before going to check what is going on with the McBride's Brahmin herd, a Nightkin will stand motionless behind the fence. It will not attack, and it will not appear as a red marker on the location HUD on the bottom left of the screen. You can also steal from it, even though when you crouch, there is no dialog indicator (Y to steal from Nightkin) telling you can do so. Attacking it will initiate combat, expectedly.

More to post since I've started a second playthrough (seeing as my first relentlessly crashes).

Vault 03 : When stopped by the Fiend Guard (upon entering), I didn't have the required Speech Skill level to be treated as a friend so I backed out of the conversation and the Vault. Now, on Aba Daba Honeymoon, I can't progress as I no longer even have the option to initiate dialogue with the Fiend Guard, so I can't get into the Vault without them becoming hostile. Wearing Great Khans Faction Armour does NOT alleviate/resolve the problem.

With the My Kind of Town quest, I cannot get either Meyers or Primm Slim to become sheriff as they've both glitched. Meyers is locked in a loop about staying out of the NCR's way (I had them take over the NCRCF), so I can't even take his request for a pardon to the Mojave Outpost. As for Primm Slim, I found Vance's 9mm Sub-Machinegun whilst this quest was active. Now, Primm Slim is also locked into a loop and doesn't allow any detailed conversation (and therefore option to reprogram him).

Speaking of the NCRCF, I've heard random NPCs stating that the NCR's assault on the facility was a failure (How, I really don't know) and the alarm/siren at the NCRCF is still going whilst the NCR's soldiers are all grouped together in the Admin building. I have a distinct feeling something has gone wrong, but seeing as I don't know what is "supposed" to happen, I can't tell you where (or what) the error is.

Several Merchants are not restocking again and I think it *might* be because I only buy spare ammo casings/drained ECs off them and then leave, meaning I've bought some items off them, yet their Caps remain the same.

I resolved the Crazy, Crazy, Crazy quest by repairing Rhonda and Tabitha became friendly and proceeded down Black Mountain. Later on, I headed back down Black Mountain with Raul and we were attacked by a Centaur, 1 Super Mutant Master (with a Heavy Incinerator) and, much to my dismay, Tabitha. Why did this happen and where was Rhonda (note : no Rhonda corpse was found in the surrounding area)?

So, great, I can't complete either the BoS or Great Khans questlines this time. Looks like playthrough attempt no. 3 is on the horizon.

This isnt really a bug.....This has to do with where you place bets. Make sure you look at what the odds/payouts are for whatever you are betting.The roulette table in FO:NV does not have the same odds as a real casino....for instance....betting on black in the game has 1:1 odds(rather than 2:1)...therefore betting one 1 chip and winning, just wins the 1 chip you bet back. Roulette is not the way to win money in the game on a quick and sustained basis.

Blackjack is much better....I have found that having a luck skill of 6 or higher....and always betting the max 200 chips...pays out more and faster than anything else...unless you are REALLY good at caravan...which I found I hate.

Once you win around 1000 chips....leave the table...save.....and continue on. Eventually this will lead to comps and or problems depending on how much you win.

That Nightkin is part of the quest with McBrides Herd. he does not show up on the HUD because he is supposed to be cloaked. Every night after you start the quest around 0:00 he walks up and kills a Brahmin wth a mini-gun. The Nightkin is bugged a bit though as sometimes when you attack him his mini-gun will float away from him.

I didn't see this one. Maybe I missed it. The game WON'T LOAD AT ALL! I added the game to my my XBox 360 game library. All I get is a black screen. I put the disc in, same thing. I just get a black screen on my TV. No music or noise in the background. I have to turn off or unplug the Xbox to get back to the dashboard. Other games are fine, its just Fallout New Vegas. Fallout 3 had problems with freezing up. I could deal with that, but I can't even go back and start again. I was getting problems with the Xbox reading the disc, it was telling me to clean the disc. But there was nothing wrong with it. I hope they solve these problems soon. I love the games, but I'm not sure I'm gonna buy another Fallout. Or any other titles.

I'm not certain how Obsidian scripted this encounter, but it was daylight when I went to the McBride's farm, and the nightkin was just standing there; uncloaked. They're normally very aggressive, but this one didn't attack me. I could steal from it, even though no indicator would show that I could do so when I went into a crouch position.

A very strange encounter which I don't think was meant to go this way as I have described.

Quest: "Dealing with Contreras", This Machine

I completed the quest by helping Contreras through the use of Speech options, which doesn't earn you This Machine as a reward. At a later point in the game, however, I sold out Contreras to Lt. Boyd, and she gave me This Machine. All saves made after this point have been corrupted. This is how I know for a fact that This Machine caused it:

I have about 10 saves, and last night I stopped shortly after receiving the gun, having overwritten about 5 saves with it in my inventory. Upon trying to load today, I got the "this save relies on Downloadable Content that's no longer available" error. I hit Yes to load my save anyway, and it said "the storage device you selected is no longer available. Load canceled." It just plain refused to load. However, at that point, I hadn't made that connection that This Machine had caused it.

I tried progressively loading my saves, and the first one that it'd let me load was the first save file without This Machine. I shrugged, and kept playing. Then, after a lengthy play session, having long overwritten all of my saves without This Machine, I made a mistake and had to load for the first time, and got the error again.

Needless to say, I'm crestfallen. This file had 114 hours on it, all wasted. I can't even complete the game.
