There are two items in Destiny. One is an Old West-style revolver with a fan-fire animation. The other is a pair of gauntlets with huge armor plates mounted on them. And if you use them at the same time... :bravo:

the armor completely covers up what you're aiming at, especially so since bungie like putting your crosshair a good 20% below the middle of the screen for some reason

The gauntlet completely blocks your view when firing the revolver. Makes it kinda hard to aim. Other weapons probably don't have your hands ever coming up like that so it's a non-issue for any other weapon.

I'd say it's more of an oversight or unfortunate interaction then glitch. :v: (But its still amusing)

drat, I wish I had been recording, but last night I encountered one of the weirdest bugs I've ever encountered in a Fallout game:

I'm in post-main story Fallout 4, stalking around the HalluciGen building, and I see a legendary BoS hostile in power armor and alone. He doesn't see me yet, so I take the opportunity to charge up my laser musket for a one-shot kill and begin to look through the scope.

Literally one frame before my view changes to the scope view, the game appears to hardlock while zoomed in on (not through) my musket scope. But then I notice that the loading icon in the lower right has appeared, and then the game teleports me nearly a mile north of my original location and dumps me into the river.

I had to fast travel back to HalluciGen, but I still got that BoS fucker.

Yeah sometimes when you zoom in to aim the game just hurls you in the opposite direction at terminal velocity.

I'm glad that it's not just me that it happened to, but for me, it kinda dropped me from a height after I was done being flung, so I died basically as soon as it loaded back up.

e: Oh, that happens in the 3rd clip. Haha.

I just managed to attack myself in Oblivion by fumbling the keys while unmounting a horse. The game decided I was simultaneously in first and third person views and both on and off the horse. Therefore, the Paralyze on Touch spell I cast should obviously target myself. However, I was in the middle of the dismount animation, so the spell did not paralyze me.

Instead, it made me invisible. Permanently. I had to quit out of the game for my body to return from its vacation to the planes of Oblivion.

Oh, I also got kicked out of the Thieves Guild. You see, you aren't allowed attack members of the Thieves Guild while in the Thieves Guild yourself. I was a member of the Thieves Guild. Therefore, by attacking myself, I had attacked a member of the Thieves Guild and broken the rules. It was only the Thieves Guild; none of the other guilds gave a poo poo, nor did the guards, despite "don't attack people at random" being a pretty universal law in Elder Scrolls games.

It was never clear but it must have caused the part of you below the water to not be immune to your own shots like it's supposed to be. If you shot yourself in the leg out of water nothing happened.

Sounds like the game loaded up a reaction animation that it didn't have and couldn't figure out how to transition back out of it.

The second part sounds like their faction system is working mostly as intended, and it is amazing when systems ram into each other like that.

Speaking of dying from a small pool of water, World of Warcraft had an amazing bug a long time ago. Druids can earn the ability to shapeshift into a Moonkin, a weird owlbear creature. Thing is, Moonkin had a strange allergy to shallow water. If a Moonkin so much as entered an ankle-deep body of water, the breath meter would pop up as if they were fully immersed underwater. So they could drown from standing in a puddle for one minute. :saddowns:

Attention! Something tremendous has happened!
No video, but a bunch of raiders attacked me in fallout 4. I dispatched them and realized there was still one left, but I wasn't being attacked. He'd loaded up in a not-quite-a-T-pose with his arms in the air like he was surrendering. His AI was active, though, so he was skating around unable to aim at me because his gun was frozen in his hand, pointing at the sky. I followed him around for a while before he glitched through the ground and vanished.

Apparently things like shop stalls count as physical objects while in the workshop overlay, and settlers can interact with them. This settler was stuck in this pose for as long as I was still in the area, and moved very slowly. Not even just the upper body, she just glided around with no animation whatsoever. It took her 4 minutes to walk from the building behind the water purifier to this pond, non-stop.

I'm plaing Alien: Isolation atm, and a couple days ago I was on the medical level looking for a door pass or something, whatever, I heard the alien behind me and ran into a cupboard, hoping for some freedom. Alas, the alien bugged out and literally just ran towards me forever, but stuck against a shelf or some poo poo. I watched it on/off for several minutes. I finally weighed my options and decided to exit the closet, except as soon as I did, the alien apparently lost interest and started hunting again. Back in the closet I went, and survived.

This is what I think of your opinion.
Was playing Skyrim, and a mammoth clipped a ledge and shot straight up in the air about 20 feet. Not too uncommon for things to randomly fly up into the air in Skyrim though, so I wasn't too surprised.

Then it came down and stuck the landing on top of a second mammoth.

Unfortunately the mammoth stack only lasted about three seconds and I was laughing too hard to get a picture.

I don't know what it is with mammoths but before I uninstalled skyrim it wasn't uncommon for every mammoth in the area to just spawn in the sky after I came out of a cave, and it was specifically caves, so I'd come out after killing spiders and hagravens or whatever and just see a dozen mammoths rain down. My computer did not enjoy it, but I did.

This happened playing FO4 earlier. I exited my power armor near the power armor station in Red Rocket, next to another suit of power armor, and I apparently went into the "repair" animation too fast. Turns out that's the secret recipe for doing the fusion dance with your power armor because the next thing I knew, we had become one.



I wasn't able to interact with any of the work benches "you must exit your power armor first", and I couldn't actually exit the power armor, but I was able to use the jetpack and I still had the HUD. Weirdly, I could get into that second set of power armor and still use the jetpack. But when I exited that second set, the X01 pieces all went into my inventory. Apparently I had consumed/become the power armor frame and the pieces were just equipped like armor.
