Three Imperial Soldiers walk into a city...

Post » Thu Jul 05, 2012 9:27 pm

This must be some crazy joke... I just traveled to Whiterun and there are 3 Imperial Soldiers just near the gate talking about "action" and "killing Stormcloaks". Is it normal? Should I just MarkForDelete them?

This is my old character with which I did most likely ~95% of the game. I wonder if this has something to do with the mod that adds guarded borders or the fact that I just started a fresh game.

Just saw that myself, and have seen it before. Just a harmless glitch.

Spoiler
Hmmm might come in handy when Dawnguard comes to PC and the Vampires start to kill off people.

Sounds like an encounter got picked up and transported with you. Happens to me from time to time, but usually with enemies who loaded in the same cell that I fast traveled from.

It's not a big deal, they just behave... unnatural. Just standing in one place, lollygagging in a triangle.

Do a search here, it's a known bug that happens when fast-traveling. I think it was introduced with the 1.5 patch ...

Lollygagging you say? Hard to believe the local guards haven't shot them where they stand. They have a very low tolerance for that sort of thing. :P

I just traveled to Whiterun and there are 3 Imperial Soldiers just near the gate

This has happened to me twice in the past few days - random event type things appearing inside walled cities. I got the three Imperials one when I exited Breezehome, but I didn't fast travel out of there... :blink:

I always get attacked by Forsworn in Whiterun. It would be cool if it happened in Markarth, but it is just weird and unimmersive when it happens in Whiterun....
