Bugs after 1.2.0.315 patch

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 3:01 pm

ED-E randomly looks messed up, sometimes his gun is coming out the center of the grill on the front of him and other time all the bits of him are all over the place and the gun fires from about 10 foot above him.

Seems to fix with a fast travel, but would prefer not to have to fix the look of the eye-bot every few zone changes. Never had the problem before the patch.

actually this isn't a bug and I hope this helps. according to the strategy guide and multiple attempts on my part you must do the following. If you confront and kill the spy after hearing him relay the plans, the monorail will blow no matter what you do. In order to save the monorail you must listen to the conversation in the tower and LEAVE without confronting the spy. You can then disarm the bomb and talk to Hsu and turn over the bomb and the spy. I think this falls into a paying the price for vengeance thing. Also another poster mentioned the pip boy screen changing to bright colors. While this is a bug (as far as I can tell) if you change your pipboy to a different display color, check it, then change it back it should be normal again


I don't think I've played it this way... I listened to the spy, then got up to him, when he turned hostile I shot him, looted the body, went to monorail and disarmed the bomb. I went to Hsu afterwards. Did it this way in 2 play-throughs.

Probably not a bug, just a game engine problem, but since I downloaded the patch my game is freezing a LOT more, always during combat. Very annoying since I didn't have that problem before.

When you step into the solar panel area of Helios One, Lady Gibson's dogs and a few Mole Rats still appear and all attack you. If the NCR sees the dogs attacking you they become hostile. I have been able to fix this by just reloading the autosave, but it's still a little annoying.

I've confronted and killed the spy in all 3 play through attempts and never had a problem defusing the monorail bomb.

I dunno if this is a bug but I had it even before the patch. It has been a few weeks in-game and Hardin still hasn't become the Elder of his chapter in the BoS. I want my power armor dammit.



wait 3 in game days out side of BoS Bunker, then go talk to him. you'll get an other quest. check out the Wikia Vault for better info

if it helps i found a way to climb onto the airplane to talk to jack for young hearts. There is a table with some metal boxes stacked on it, jump on them and onto the wing of the airplane. Walk across and talk to jack.


Thanks I actually found that too but he wasn't one of the people up there for me. They waypoint says he's in the hanger and it says he's at Black Mountain. I managed to get in to a few tight places to look for him just in case in the new hanger. Someone on another site said they're stuck in the mesh at black mountain but I couldn't managed to get myself stuck in there to look around for them.

I started the quest You Put a Spell on Me and I can't get into the monorail to turn off the bomb. It just has a option to go to the Strip.

All of my bugs are on previous saves (I did not start a new game after the patch)
I have a Jasper chipset and the game is installed on my hard drive.


The pip-boy bug which affects the world map still exists. I was outside the Lucky 38 and pulled out my pip-boy to fast travel. When I selected Vault 34, the background of the world map disappeared when the confirmation window popped up. I thought it was strange and confirmed no (thinking it would maybe regenerate the map...) it didn't. All of the location points where still on it, but none of the map background details were present. Simply cycling off the world map and back to the world map regenerated the map. That is an improvement, because previously one had to put up the pip-boy and bring it back up for it to regenerate.

The pip-boy bug with the quest notes still exists. When I got to the Data tab in the pip-boy and go to Misc. it shows all the quest notes. There is an option to hit X (with default controls) to show active quest notes. A blank pages comes up no matter what quests i have selected and I'm certain i have notes on most of the quests. This is very annoying because I know I'm missing or forgetting key quest points as i move along through the game.

Ed-e got stuck on a few doorways in Vault 34. Eventually it got free. Very annoying more than anything.

Veronica and Ed-e teleported near the top of Black Mountain (and were engaged in combat) when I was sneaking up the cliffs above the switch backs. Loading the save and getting them to wait at the bottom of the mountain prevented this.

I was taking Veronica and Ed-e the back way up Black Mountain past the crater with the dead Brotherhood of Steel member. Veronica and Ed-e both got hung up repeatedly around the rim of the crater. Veronica's was way worse, she was stuck 2/3 into the ground and wouldn't even attempt to move. I sent her back to the Lucky 38 and she teleported (I hope) safely.

I've had two game freezes since this 1.2 patch. Both seemed random and I really do feel they were heat related crashes of the hardware. After letting my console cool off a little, I heard the tell-tell popping (I'm assuming that was the solder joints popping?) as the chips went through their thermal cycle. I'm not happy about the potential damage this game is causing. Fallout 3 ended up killing my last console after repeated freezes. I'm still not sure if the game specifically was at fault, but either way this is not a good thing.

And why in pip-boy reputation section, I can't see my reputation with the NCR? I can only see in world map through NCR locations and all of them said (NEUTRAL)

I dunno, maybe it is a bug then. If i confront and kill the spy, no matter how quick I run, there is never an option to disarm the bomb first. I have to talk to Hsu then the monorail blows. The only way I've found to get past it is to leave without confronting him ,disarm the bomb and tell on him to Hsu. But if some people are able to kill him first and disarm the bomb then I guess it has to be a bug

Just downloaded the patch for Xbox360. While at the Crimson Caravan I was speaking to Blake. I purchased most of his items and game froze. I had messed up a few minutes earlier by getting caught pick-pocketing. I noticed the first load, when I purchased items, it took awhile to exit the purchase screen. Sounded like it was placing the individual playing cards into my deck. On the second loading it made the same sound, and froze. I'm thinking it was the conversion of the cards. I can't confirm why it froze and any help would be great.

Jack and Loyal still stuck in old hanger after completing Volare! - Cannot complete Young Hearts or Trigger Raul after talking to Loyal for Old School Ghoul after you have completed Volare! (edit - waypoint is still showing Jack at Black Mountain).

Gannon still will not give you an option to travel with me if I send him back to the Lucky 38.

Terminal Access with custom controls still requires you to hold down the custom set button while using the terminal to access it.


(Note: These are bugs found on existing saves. Not after restarting).


I could not recruit Gannon if I recruited Ed-E first. When I dismissed Ed-E then I could recruit Gannon.

Not sure if this is a bug, I assume that it is, but as I was heading to the area where you watch the rocket launch in "Come fly with me" the screen went black. It happened when I was going through the door from the basemant, up to the first floor. I waited for a short bit, thinking that the loading was talking a while, but nothing happened. Even after I ejected the game, the screen didn't change.

Came out of Camp Guardian Caves (for the third time) onto the peak and everything was really dark, like it still thought I was in the cave, even though it was the middle of the day. Tried to fast travel somewhere to see if it stayed like that, and now it's permanently dark no matter where I am or what time of day it is. Not sure if this was present before the patch or not, but it definitely is now. I tried reloading an earlier save and it was fine, until I went into, then came out of Camp Guardian Cave.

I've had that too. When you're wearing NCR armor, it resets your rep to neutral. Take off the armor and it will change back after a few minutes. Kind of breaks immersion, unfortunately.

Well, since I complete the Omerta quest chain before finishing For the Republic, Part 1, I still can't complete For The Republic, Part 2. There is no dialogue for the chick behind the front desk. I was told to restart, but I'd almost be tempted to do the Omerta chain first again to see if that issue actually still persists. I just wish they would have added what she's supposed to say if you have that quest active.

Those that couldn't catch the monorail... your agility is low or you have 2 much weight to catch up to it. It isn't a glitch or a bug.

Well it would seem Blake, the vendor inside the Crimson Caravan compound is bugged severely for me. When I enter the shop window with him and make any sort of transaction and attempt to leave I hear the clicking sound (after hitting the B button to leave) but it gets stuck and repeats the sound like like 10-20 seconds and then completely freezes and I have to reboot my 360. Really svcks since he has quite a few nice weapon mods and apparently has two books that are needed for a side quest (which i cant purchase due to this bug).

Don't know if this is a new bug, but it seems i can sneak murder "the forecaster". He doesn't seem to die but i get exp for it over & over & over & over & it does an animation like im laying down to sleep beside him. That's creepy! Murder someone then lay down to sleep beside they're body. lol actually i would do that! Also, my power armor's shoulders go all out of wake when i sit in a chair.

After starting a new game, I ran into my first big bug. While exploring sewers, I went into vats while fighting ghouls and I froze inside vats without ability to shoot. My character stood there with lever action shotgun as he was destroyed.


I read about this bug, but never encountered it because it probably surfaced with 1st patch. I never downloaded 1st patch, instead I was playing a complete unpatched version of game...probably well over 150 hours without ever seeing this bug

Ok why am I stuck. doing my power armour training.

I have just been accepted as a brotherhood of stell paladin member. I did the quest where i had to go to black mountain & put transmitters in for the brotherhood of stell (mcnamara)

It says to go back to mcnamara & tell him you have done it which i did then he goes I am now a paladin blah blah blah. & I can be trained in power armour which I agree. From this point The screen goes black (which is normal) but then I can not move or do anything at all. even tho it says talk to mcnamara I press the a button & nothing happens, It has been like this for 3 hrs now.

I was told that it takes 2.5 hrs to train in the power armour but it has been more then that now. I have restarted from before I get to mcnamara & it does the same thing over & over.

Can anyone help Cause it is seriously pinging me off. I wanna kill things (in game of course)

Quest Glitch on:

YOU CAN DEPEND ON ME

After you accept to deliver the invoice from Alice McLafferty to Dr. Thomas Hildern at McCarran Oupost, the locator doesn't switch to Dr. Hildern, but remains on Alice McLafferty. I spoke to Cass at Mojave Oppost long before actually coming around to finally speak to Alice McLafferty at the Crimson Caravan, so the glitch may not happen if you start the quest right away. But I haven't tested it yet. Fortunately, it's not game breaking, and you can finish the quest easily if you know where Hildern is as I did.
