COLLAGE OF WINTERHOLD QUEST BREAKING GLITCH!. PC 360 PS3 Sometimes ending the quest, revealing the unseen in the collage of winterhold questline. Will not trigger the next quest in the series. Savos Aren's corpse will be outside, but no NPC will speak to you and trigger the next quest. Cause unknown. This can be fixed on the PC version by entering setstage MG05 0 in the console.

Quest Breaking Glitch!

» Tue May 22, 2012 6:08 pm

I waited 3 months to buy Skyrim hoping to avoid most of the major bugs.

The "Diplomatic Immunity" quest is FRACKED. This literally breks the game. I'd already given my best weapons and dragon armor to the elf at the Inn, and then when I go to meet Delphine she gives me party clothes and takes the rest of my gear. Then the game freezes and I have to reboot and reload. 6 times I tried this with the same results. I even tried doing a few other quests and then going back to Delphine later . Same result. If this were a side quest I could skip it , but it's part of the main questline . Meaning this character I've put 150 + hours into is wasted.

If anyone knows how to fix this, I'm all ears. I'm on 360 so no console commands.

If no one knows how to fix this , how do I contact Bethesda to ask for my money back ?

Install the game to the HDD it might stop it freezing.

Make this a poll (Just add every bug you can think of and see which 2 fill up the fastest).

Fix the respawn bug (giants and some bandit camps ex. valheim towers)

Fix the Nirnroot glow stack bug

I have a number of issues. I can't limit it to two, but I'll stick with three. 1) I picked up a book before the librarian in Winterhold asked for it. I'm standing there with book in hand and he won't take it or recognize that I have it. I can't drop it, I can't put it back, I've gone back and a second book hasn't respawned. I'm just stuck. 2) I have every dragon word except one, which is glowing on the ground in High Hrothgar. I stand there. I look at it. I glare at it. It glows orange and mocks me. I can't complete the dragon words 100% because of this one stubborn word. 3) Nazir game me three simple people to "off" for the Dark Brotherhood quest. the third is by Anya's Mill, IIRC. I killed him. He's dead. I looted his body. I stripped him naked and threw him over the falls. Doesn't matter. He still has a little white arrow over his head and Nazir keeps telling be to quit screwing around and finish the job. I can't proceed in this MAJOR quest (major = achievement attached). I eventually gave up on #3 and played a separate game to get the achievement. I still need to do the Daedric weapon achievement because I wussed out on a couple before seeing I needed them 100% for an achievement. I have others - quest items where the quest was broken (or completed) that I'm stuck with forever. Lisbeth's Dibella Statue. Finn's Lute. Finally fixed my 32 Briar Heart issue by eating them all, and then the next one worked ok (finally). OH, there is one more. My house in Windhelm still has blood and skulls all over the damn place. There is no cleaning option from the Jarl's lackey. (One last thing - get the damn DLC out, for Pete's Sake. EEDAR says according to gamers, 60 days is the optimal gap. ME3 was on day one. ES5 is on its way to 150 days with no DLC even announced. Can I have something new to do in this game soon, please?)

one thing i want to say is i agree with 100% but if they do release the dlc i personally wouldnt be happy because it means they have been too focused on making the dlc than getting things sorted that by the looks of it hundreds of people are having problems they should at least sort out the problems first before releasing dlc because that will likely be full of bugs as well leaving more people stuck. It is pathetic that they even released this game with how many bugs they have think of it this way what about the players who dont have xbox live because they cant afford it or psn because they dont have an internet connection they are stuck with how skyrim has been released and for ￡40 they have spent its absolutely discusting.

Well you dont need to pay for live to get patches, theres nothing Skyrim has that requires Gold, just Silver access. I dont think there are many people that dont have internet access and for those that dont, it doesnt mean they cant play skyrim out of the box

Indeed, though I've heard that you can use Wabbajack to fix most followers. I've also heard that essential followers, like Mjoll the Lioness, cannot be fixed on consoles using Wabbajack because it will never change their form, only doing damage.

So if you want to use Mjoll at her best (level 40 I believe), apparently you would have to wait until your character was level 40 or higher before visiting Riften. Very lame.

Actually there is a way of resetting Mjoll without the Wabbajack, and that is to send her back to her home and wait 30 days. If you married her, she will return to your home I believe (haven't married her so I don't know) and player homes never reset, so she will never get updated either. This is why housecarls cannot be updated through resetting a cell, since player homes never reset. So basically don't marry her until you're sure she's updated to level 40.

On another note, I believe there were a bunch of stealth fixes in 1.5, stuff which they just didn't tell us. Because my Lydia handled a spriggan on her own today, a feat which totally astonished me. So perhaps they have already fixed followers levelling. Remember that to see this change, you will have to actually advance a level yourself to refresh your follower, or use the wabbajack/sending home method, which might explain why people aren't seeing this fix yet, but I do believe it is in game from my gut feeling about how improved Lydia is.

It would be nice to see some graphical enhancements for the console. I started another thread about the loading textures and objects and how all of the white lines and dots around where distant objects are loading in were getting annoying. It seems like every patch has made the game less impressive graphically. The pop in has gotten much worse too. As much as I love seeing individual quests being fixed, I think it would be nice to see some of the broader issues being addressed in the next patch.

» Tue May 22, 2012 7:13 pm

Nirnroot glow stacking!!!!!!!!!!!! Fix it BS!!!!!

» Tue May 22, 2012 11:21 pm

This is what I would like for 1.6.

Dragons: Make them rare, more powerful and harder to kill, and fix the glitchy fly manoeuvres... it looks silly when a dragon flys real slow... then does a 360 degree turn at the speed of sound

More and more quest fixes.

Still a couple of texture issues but nowhere near as bad.. would still like for them to spend a couple of days to work on it though.

That's all I can think of right now.

This, and fix the white boarders around NPCs.

I'd just say ummm... Make moderately essential people unkillable so the game is not purely about "Chance" when a dragon randomly attacks a town or outside of a town.. I've seen too many important people and shop keepers die this way because they're all programmed to get some kind of nerves of steel and then they always instantly die. Either make them run away or unkillable please lol. I think the only NPC's in towns or cities should be guards or other unkillables that just get knocked down, that gain the nerves of steel thing and try to fight dragons.

Other than that, which causes me to have to reload everytime a dragon attacks a town I'm near, I'd say make quest items droppable or destroyable, and if not destroyable atleast make them storeable or invisible in the inventory. I've had character's filled side to side with weighty quest items that were broken and I could never remove them, even if I pick the items up exactly right after I finish the quest.

^agree

i say it would be nice to have the puzzle ring doors fixed, one i know for sure can end your game quick if you dont have any saves to fall back on. this happened to me a little after 1.2 and occasionally you still see people mention it in the forums.

all ring doors but especially this one
*Quest: Dead Men's Respite Tending the Flames
*Type: quest for Bards College
*Description: the ring door will not spin STUCK on all dragons
*How To Replicate: be unlucky
*Other: reloading doesnt fix and no exit from tomb if ring door doesnt open.

"Japhet's Folley" is still not fixed Bethesda. How hard is it to let me just fast travel off of the island?? Seriously.

Been stuck for while now, can't buy any of your bug laden DLC if you can't get me off of the island.

If you can't get my toon out of there I am never playing anymore Bethesda games.

Can't wait for "The Witcher 2" to come out next week.

I have said it once and I will say it again: NIRNROOT GLOW STACKING!!!!

» Wed May 23, 2012 3:52 am

the companions are messed up,

before the patch, farkas wouldnt give companion quests properly, now not only is he still not fixed, but now vilkas is messed up,

Spoiler

i was doing the quest where you get rid of his beast spirit thing, but he never went to the tomb, he just stayed at the home of the companions i tried twice and he did the same thing.

» Tue May 22, 2012 4:26 pm

shelved - till nirnroot glow stacking is resolved.

» Tue May 22, 2012 3:40 pm

Didnt read every post so forgive repeats but I want the obvious Blood on the Ice, some of this rumored free new content not just cams and graphics adjustments, obviously loading, texture and other bug fixes.

Also I would like to see some of the PC mods adapted for consoles which desperately need some new things for me the game has almost nothing left to do excluding Blood on the Ice and Hjerim which are so bugged I think a monkey programed that part of the game.

» Wed May 23, 2012 3:18 am

They should hire the guys who made the Unofficial Update Patch. Thats priority #1.

They already made an unofficial patch? Gawd Dayum...

Hire these guys Bethesda!

Nirnroot Glow Stacking Fix! Game has become unplayable / unstable. I will never buy another Bethesda product.

» Tue May 22, 2012 6:48 pm

Pull the game and re-do the whole thing. It's a joke the way this one company is messing with everyone like this.

» Tue May 22, 2012 10:15 pm

The Companions questline has a number of glitches that make it impossible to finish. Fixing that should be top priority in my opinion.

Could be worse, they could be EA
