Game Breaking Fallout 4 Bug Reported

If you need another one badly, there's one West of tenpines bluff. If you see a radar array it's another short trip west of that array, then follow the road to the north. On the east side of the road there's a crashed vertibird with a power armor just standing around.Cowabungaa said:
I...can't actually remember if I went there on a main quest or not. That's how boring the main quest line is. I think the rest of the game is fantastic otherwise, but the main story sssssuuuuuucccccckkkkksssssss. I've been charging through it just to get it out of the way so I can focus on side quests and exploring later. It's just how I role-play. My character gets that "urgent" situation out of the way first, then does random jobs from people in an effort to survive. Continue until I do all side quests in the game, or until I get bored.
Anyway, I actually haven't crashed a single time. And that's after poking around in the .ini files with 25 hours on steam. I'm obviously lucky.

So THIS is the bug that gets posted where people should just basically avoid a location till a fix comes around, but the black screen crash on startup where people have to avoid the GAME till it's fixed for a bunch of PC setups isn't?
Seriously, I've read almost a dozen threads on different sites where people(including me) can't even start the game because of some random undefinable "Access Violation" error.
For some lucky people this can be fixed by borderless window, messing with resolution, updating/downgrading drivers, removing intro files, creating Save folder by hand, forcing Dx11.1 through WinSDK or out right changing your OS. I'm not one of these people.
The game also seems to have overshot it's system requirements a bit since it's been shown that it can be run on just 4GB of RAM and with a lower CPU/GPU so that's also not an excuse for not being able to start it up.(Mind you I said it CAN be run on a subpar system. Let's not go into HOW it's running.

thanks, I'll have to remember that later on if I see that and triggers a memory, I nearly did the same thing with that armor, I thought it was a protectron or something right when I was running by.cathou said:
(due to the random encounters and random mines, I pretty much spam "Q" when I'm stealthing around new territory, so it caught me by surprise when I first went by it and it didn't get picked up by VATS)
Yeah you can come across various suits all over the wasteland. A trick to keep them out of your power armor might be to make sure you remove the fusion cores from it when you exit. I'm not sure if this will effect NPC's or not, but I recall getting out of a suit once during a combat situation, and a raider tried to get in it. I left the core in it, so that might be why he went for it. Since then I've always removed the cores when I exit the suit, and nobody else has ever attempted to enter it. Might be coincidence, might not. *shrugs*Cowabungaa said:
There's a difference between "ready" and "playable".Devieus said:
OT; I know we all like to have a good laugh at Bethesda's "Quality Assurance" department. But I think we need to cut Jose the Janitor some slack. They never tell him the games are in English.
your image doesnt load but i think i know what you mean. its possible to simulate this bug with the maxed out perk for CHarisma lvl 10 (the one that lets you give commands to NPCs, forgot the name).Cowabungaa said:
You can actually get a new power armor easily. Even force her to quit that power armor too. Heres how: Have high enough sneaking skill to pickpocket a NPC without getting caught. Pickpocket the power Core from the power armor the NPC is wearing. this will force the NPC to leave the power armor as it no longer has power. you can now reinstall the power core and enter the armor. You can do this with any NPC thats wearing power armor, so it should work with your Marcy as well. I know one guy has a lineup of 8 power armors in his back yard like that.
that explains so much....mysecondlife said:
but no, seriuosly, the bugs we see here were around for a decade, its not so much a beta as they are just using a horrible engine. you want a beta shed thats Ubisoft. it launches with tons of bugs but they are mostly caused by Ubisoft using experimental technology and being "early adopters". A lot of tech that caused problems for Ubisoft games couple years back became industry standards nowadays, now that the bugs got ironed out. Its quite amazing how much stuff Ubisoft actually pioneered and got shat on for that.
Hmm... my game has randomly crashed to desktop twice after long sessions during my 83 hours of play but I've pretty much explored the whole of the North and never crashed near Monsignor Plaza. Though I'm having more problems with getting stuck in World Geometry in Power Armour due to the "extra" height you have whilst crouching and wearing a set and the extended invisible walls around objects. Also extremely dumb companion AI, lifts leaving "ghost" objects of their sides floating in mid air and geometry either literally fighting with each other or existing in areas where they shouldn't and obscuring the ground completely.
