A few Skyrim AI glitches all at once; scripting errors, inability to climb a foot-high ledge, confusion about whether they were trying to kill me or not, pathfinding, and that really annoying one where NPCs will start conversations while you are fighting and you have to quickly exit the conversation to regain control, while the enemies wail on you. Bastard really wanted those fragments.

I really don't want this thread to die; for some reason modern game glitch videos are some of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I've been playing a lot of Sleeping Dogs lately:

This one's kind of a cheat because I tweaked the game to be invincible and have infinite ammo without reloads.

You know how in GTA IV you can pull the trigger when you ragdoll and the gun just goes off however it's pointing?

Yeah.

Okay, seriously, everyone needs to get Simple Native Trainer and GTA IV. You can toggle gravity, as can see me loving with below.

I'm surprised and disappointed more Backbreaker glitches or silly goofs haven't really popped up.

Football game that uses the Euphoria engine like GTA4/RDR does. A year and a half before FIFA 12 came out.
If you just want to gently caress around with silly physics in a sports game, download the Backbreaker Vengeance demo on 360/PS3.
Tripping over hurdles never gets old.

I wish there was PC version; tweaking the game to give me the mass of a freight train would be amazing.

Assassin's Creed III is glitchy as hell.

Fun though, and most of the glitches are amusing. It's not immediately obvious, but the two-stroke motor noise is actually the sound of the guys bumping into each other.

I'm thinking about setting up my camera to record me playing Assassin's Creed III for an hour and then just editing it down to 45 minutes of glitch material. At this point I'm laugh sobbing and even my wife (who cares gently caress all for video games) has commented that the game is completely broken.

Every time I summon Assassin recruits in New York they spawn on the roof as normal but never get to kill the targets on the ground because they get stuck in an endless "run face first into this chimney forever" loop.

Recruits also like to get confused when facing multiple groups of enemies. I saw one spin around and put his hands on the wall, only to get stabbed to death by a soldier. I assume he got stuck in the "brace against a wall to climb or push off it" animation, but it was very police brutality.

While I was on a lock picking chest spree, the lock pick went a little higher with each box until I was weaving magical circles over the chest to open it.

Horses. Horses are all broken all the time. Did a side mission where even the AI couldn't get their horse to behave and got stuck on a bush, making me fail it three times in a row.

Free running, which is supposed to be better, is so much worse. Just running down the street, Connor will get distracted and try to run up a wall or pile of barrels you can't actually climb anyway. Great for time-sensitive or chase quests.

The amazing detail of the animation (three different ways to jump over a fence, the way his feet and legs actually try to stand on the terrain) gets marred by scripting. When running past a group of alerted guards, I juked around them and then suddenly just stood there so one could grab me from behind.

The funniest so far have been carriages calmly pushing aside a row of soldiers at attention and an npc wandering into a cutscene, getting stuck on a chair and merging with Connor while he argued with another character. Then when the scene ended collision detection kicked back in and the npc went flying.

I'm not sure if I'm playing AC3 wrong or just not for long enough; it hasn't been very glitchy for me at all. The parkour is slightly less smooth than the previous titles, and once the camera got stuck looking at the ground after petting a cat (and corrected itself a few seconds later), but from reading these threads I should be expecting The Elder Scrolls: New England.

It got worse as it went along. Not like it has become less stable, but like the specific quest and side quest activities have revealed more and more bugs.

For instance, one of the recruit side quests in New York has you carry people through the city. Normally when you walk through a clothes line you duck under and push past the hanging blankets. They didn't script, animate or account for when you are carrying a body, so you, a skilled and agile assassin, are blocked by some gently billowing tea towels.

Some of the other bugs occur with texture and sprite pop in or npc spawning. If you go to an enemy fort you can see enemy soldiers pop in as you cross into the red "tresspassing area". They disappear when you cross back out, regardless of whether or not they spotted you, but their bodies sometimes stay. I had a pile of bodies from pushing the same sniper off a cliff 10 times.

I really just think it wasn't play tested enough, which is common for games of grand scope with a dozen different game mechanics and tight release schedules.

In one of the latter homestead side quests, Sequence 9, you start in your house and have to find Miriam. Well, the npc's regular script had her walking near the building at the time, so the little box with her name on it showed up right outside. I ran out and followed her, trying to interact for half an hour before I ran back to the house to figure out what the gently caress.

There was a clue you have to interact with in the house to trigger a cutscene to whatever. When I did "find" her as the game wanted, I used a different path then the expected because some dialog flags got skipped and it went from "NO, that's not who I a..." to the wedding cutscene. I have no idea what I was supposed to have done or said to change her mind. Maybe it is fixed in the patch "Mission "THE WEDDING", fixed a missing audio line".

I cannot wait for the PS4's DVR style constant recording (up to the previous 15 minutes of gameplay) and the flood of content into this thread (I hope).

Yesterday, I found a falling animation glitch in Assassin's Creed IV.

One of my main reasons for getting a PS4 was the greater ease in capturing and sharing glitches.

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. :(
