In the game Startopia (Dungeon Keeper meets Theme Hospital meets DS9 meets HGTTG), the indolent rich Gem Slugs will occasionally glitch out when visiting their custom bar/spa building.

They will sit in the spa and utterly freeze, while the simulation will continue to track all of their various stats and needs. In the end, the Gem Slug will be ejected from the spa, dead as a doornail.

The developers didn't fix it because they liked the idea that these super-rich, super-lazy fucks are so lazy that they forget their needs.

That's the way I want to go out

Well after 226 hours, Fallout 4 has finally poo poo the bed in a most spectacular way.

I've met the Institute and taken a break from the main quest to do some bobblehead hunting and base building and some companion affiliation maxing. All good, having a blast. Finally decided to take Preston along for a bit, since he loves it when I help settlements out.

Get a mission from a settlement to take out a bunch of raiders at some beach. No worries mate, we'll sort that out.

Fast travel there. Instantly discover I fast travel in the dead center of their little encampment. A surprise, but I'm level 92 and these chucklefuck are reading as level 14, max. Preston and I go to work, he with his default charge rifle and me with a Two Shot fully upgraded Sniper Rifle that will pop just about any head that passes through its scope. Except...

I first notice that even though I'm hilariously outnumbered and completely surrounded without cover, and the enemy are being very carefree with their grenade stockpile, I'm not losing any health. Except when one raider runs up to me and hits me with a pool cue. That shaves a little health off, so I put a bullet through his chest, at which point he sails away from me in slow motion. I look around and see another raider, blown out a second story window by Preston, also gracefully cartwheeling to earth. I start to throw grenades. They do nothing. The earth now has moon gravity that applies strictly to ragdolls, and explosives don't hurt anybody.

I switch to my combat rifle and start blasting away, only to find that bullets are ineffective now too. They pass harmlessly through my targets. So we are in an enormous firefight, but its all bark and no bite, as our weapons discharge nothing but wishes. Then there isn't even any bark to our futile attempts; my weapons are completely silent now, and only half the enemy gunfire makes noise.

A large group of Super mutants join the fray. They are armed with big guns, miniguns are rocket launchers, as well as a few mutated hounds. Their weapons prove just as useless. The mutants do hurt me when they melee, however.

I attempt to kill one with VATS. The screen zooms in on his head, with a 95% chance of hitting. I use all my action points. I see all my shots land, but they do nothing. The super mutants skin produce ricochet sparks, as if they are made of metal. My action points were not depleted.

The hounds manage to kill a few more raiders, and Preston seems to be the only one capable of doing any damage. I let a mutant hit me over and over again, in a futile attempt to be killed and freed of this hell. Preston shoots him in the back, and he floats off over the horizon, spinning gracefully all the while.

I reload. The situation is the same.

I reload a previous save. No luck.


I think my Fallout 4 is hosed beyond all hope now, guys. :(

This displeases Dev- ..van. Shut up.
Rise of The Tomb Raider started glitching enemies out of existence. Sometimes I'll shoot a guy and as he begins his stagger animation his torso begins violently contorting, then he *pops* out of Lara's reality. A couple times wolves will get this far away look in their eyes mid lunge and then just go... away. The best is when it happens during a melee execution, because the camera angle switches to a more cinematic view of Lara trying to split some dude's head like a melon, only to be stymied by his ability to unplug from The Matrix.

That's what Steam tells me.

Actually, that's probably right, since lately I've been coming home from work, playing for an hour, hitting escape so it's "paused", going to pick the kids up from daycare, getting them home, getting dinner, bathing them, playing with them then putting them to bed, then playing the game for a couple of hours before bed. So actual gameplay isn't anywhere near as much as however long the game has been running.

Just had another Fallout 4 glitch - You get an Institute mission to recover a synth with the assistance of a Synth Courser. After the completion of the mission, you go back to the institute to report what happened, then are given some private quarters to use in the Institute, with the instruction to go check them out. You do so, and the Synth Courser that you just worked with is waiting for you, there is some dialogue and you're told to go back and talk to the Institute boss for your next mission.

That is what was supposed to happen.

What actually happened was my private quarters did not contain my Courser buddy. I didn't know to expect him, so I checked out my room, grabbed all the stuff, had a nap, but the quest wouldn't go away and the quest marker kept directing me to the middle of my new living room. I talked to every Institute NPC I could find, saved and loaded, left and fast travelled back, nothing. So I left it, did a few other quests, came back, no dice.

I finally googled the problem, hoping for some console commands to fix my issue, and apparently sometimes the Courser gets stuck on the geometry of where you did your first mission. Finding him there and dislodging him can fix the issue.
So I went back and eventually found him to the South of where he was *supposed* to be, valiently attempting to bring down a Brotherhood vertibird by himself.

So he didn't get stuck. From what I can gather, what happened was this:

Upon the completion of the first mission, he is supposed to walk a short distance then I think teleport to the Institute. Unfotunately, a Brotherhood Vertibird flew nearby, making him decide to try and kill them, before he could reach his "teleport" area. They being in a vehicle that moves fast, managed to lead him on a merry chase for a reasonable distance before leaving his detection range. He then would begin to walk back to his assigned "teleport" area. Then, when he was halfway back, another vertibird would come along, and he would once again thirst for blood and chase them until they outran him. Rinse and repeat for what by now is in-game weeks. The problem was that the Vertibirds were all headed home - to the Prydwin over the airport. I firmly believe that if left unchecked, the Courser (marked as essential due to his required presence in subsequent missions, and therefore invincible) could have concievably singlehandedly killed every Brotherhood soldier at the BOS staging area. Eventually.

Luckily, just by approaching him I got the mission to accept that we had met, and it gave me the next part of the mission, but I have no idea what he would have said if he wasn't locked in an epic never ending battle with Vertibirds that curiously ignored his attempts to kill them.
