I thought i should post this in case no one else had.

Please list any Bugs and Glitches you experience here so that we may pass them on to Bethesda to patch them.


Ones that i have experienced is when you pull up the Pip Boy, You can either see through it, the map is too bright, or both happen at the same time.


Another issue i noticed in game is that when i obtained all perks in Bloody Mess and Big Leagues. The bonuses for melee and extra damage did not apply.

I play Fallout 4 on Xbox One and i noticed these bugs.

It is an issue with iron fist too because when i had tested a previous save file and maxed it out.. those bonuses did not apply either. So it would seem that the recent patch was faulty.

There is no issue with ranged weapons that i can see aside from the bonus from bloody mess not applying to the damage but melee definitely needs to be fixed.

Yet, who can say? Other perks and their bonuses may be bugged too, so it would be wise for Bethesda to do a full inspection before the next patch.

The ones I know of that are perk related are MacReady's perk and Big Leagues.

aiming down sights sometimes teleports me..funny at first, but gets old after while..

however now that I think about it, it may have been fixed in last patch...anyone notice this glitch after the last patch?

That is correct. i saw those posted on the wiki as well and they are confirmed problems.

Aiming down the sites causes teleporting? That needs to be fixed. While i have seen other strange things.. i suppose experiences per player vary.


While i have not experienced that teleportation one you have mentioned, i have noticed the new patch has been bad as well.

Thankfully the game still loads atleast.


Have you noticed anything else strange?

yea the first few times wasn't a big deal, I thought it was a little funny..but I have no idea what triggers it, seems very random...but the last couple times it happened I was trying to be sneaky and aimed at a raider and got teleported to right next to him..and yea as you could guess, lost the element of surprise...also fair to note it has only happened maybe 15 or so times in 2 playthroughs totaling 100+ hours gametime..I've seen others post to it happening to them as well a few weeks back in another thread, not sure if its specific to a certain platform, I'm on PS4..

other than that no real issues for me so far...I had a certain mission unfinishable once, and a few issues with floating companions...and just like most people had the cap glitch (patched)..and the item dupe glitch, workbench glitch..stuff like that..

I've heard of many other people having bug issues..little surprised they haven't posted...maybe the wrong crowd is on today..IDK

Along with killshot, I believe cloak and dagger is bugged.

Details are on the wiki. Depending on the order how sandman, ninja and cloak and dagger are obtained can be the difference between 5.4x and 6.3x sneak attack damage.

I lost over 30 hours playtime because of this.

I have had some issues with bugs and glitches. Playing on XB1, Here are some major problems i've encountered so far. #1 Preston Garvey bug, unable to bring along as companion or bring up dialouge tree after Taking Indepndence quest. I can still recieve and complete minutemen quests but thats it. #2 My SPECIAL stats glitched at some point, i think after i got the Party Boy perk, my STR -1, CHR -1, INT +1 became permanent. I tried everything to correct it but its glitched. Took off all my gear, tried to get cured from a doctor, sleeping, reloading earlier saves, never got addicted to chems or alchohol that's why i got the party boy perk so i could drink some of the booze ive been hoarding to activate the idiot savant perk before completing a quest. This way i dont have to reload as much. #3 My settlement numbers kept decreasing and not from being attacked, i read on a post that having TV's and Jukeboxes might cause the bug and sure enough the settlements with problems had those items. Needless to say i scrapped every damn TV and Jukebox. Still happens but not as often. #4 Kent Connolley bug where he would just stay in the hospital after the Silver Shroud quest, i pushed him to the elevator which triggerd him to walk back to Goodneighbor but ive been unable to get the Armor upgrades for the costume. Not sure if being to high a level was the problem. #5 The expert merchants are surely glitched. Trader Rylee wont stay at her assigned shop. some of the merchants dont even show up. If i leave the settlement then they disappear after sometime, ive tried sleeping, doing quests, changing the settlement before recruiting but Rylee always leaves no matter what. I have other bugs i want to mention but i would probably cause this page to crash. Is another patch in the works? I wont buy any DLC unless a lot of these issues get resolved. I've always played the game without mods or exploits and played every second on Survival difficulty. Great game but the bugs are starting to take a toll on my Fallout 4 experience.

Floating companions and Teleportation.... Make sure you report that through Bethesdas support.


I agree.. but i'm sure more will report as the bugs and glitches get worse.

Thats another unfortunate bug. Thank you for sharing that with the post.


Thats some bad news too considering how fun stealth and melee and unarmed are.

That is the most amount of bugs and glitches i have ever seen in one post. All of them that all of us have mentioned seriously need to be patched. If you have not already, please report them through support but also please keep posting here so Bethesda can see them on the forum as well.


please feel free to list all of your other bugs and glitches.


With all of the bug and glitch reporting we are doing, i hope another patch is in the works that will properly fix all of these bugs!


Same here... These need to be patched before we can even think of playing DLC.

The bugs are ruining it for me too... its like because of the bugs... and the damage bonuses not working from the perks.... its almost as if i wasted 9 levels worth of perks! Thats alot and its wrong. They really need to patch this!

...using paragraphs please. It's annoying reading "wall-o-text" posts. Thanks.

If you are going to post, please contribute.


You didnt post anything on bugs OR glitches.

Pain train still needs to be fixed. Especially when it's the second time they've messed up this perk. Besides that I have no more complaints on any the the perks

Pain Train is broken too? That is a shame. i really wanted to pair that perk with Nuclear Physicist

I just found this big leagues bug myself and am so frustrated I have no words, just angry noises and curses. I didn't see that happen til looooong after I installed the perk so I am unable to go back without having to do a ton over again. What a let-down this game is, stability-wise. It's just pathetic that the basic game mechanics don't work. Bethesda says they're doing small updates so they can put them out more often, but I haven't seen an update in almost a month. Holidays and all, I get it, but it's 2016 now and I would love to at least hear Bethesda acknowledge our plight and make some effort for transparency in their bug fixing progress.

Bethesda, why must you make great games that don't quite work??????????? It makes my head throb with frustration how buggy your games are. SOOOOOO BUGGY.

True. There are way too many bugs.


Update. Bloody Mess Perk is now causing PENALTIES To Damage. I had just upgraded some weapons when i noticed that damage had dropped 5-10 points or more based on weapon type. (i'm not sure on the exact percentage lost...

but the only example i can give is that Fat Man had 1065 damage previously and now it only does 1055.

This game needs patching badly. cuz if this penalty thing keeps up... then its only a matter of time until we don't deal

any.

Bethesda's awful mum about a new update. I assume they're either mastvrbating or hard at work or mastvrbating because they're hard at work. Any word, Bethesda, on a new update would be a huge relief to those of us with high blood pressure. Also, sorry for my crude humor. I mean it in the best way possible.

Please fix Big Leagues.

It is a great combo when it actually works.

Its good you have a sense of humor lol


heres a joke i thought of.


I once knew a vegan that did martial arts.


They practiced To-Fu LOL!!!


But seriously yeah, Big Leagues, Iron Fist, and Bloody Mess need patches badly.

Definitely! i want to use them so much. however i need to finish upgrading Medic and Strong Back before i max out SPECIAL Stats with training. then after that... its Heavy Gunner, Gunslinger, and Commando.

I've never seen bloody mess chain explode while using melee/unarmed.

B Bug - Idiot Savant Level 3 stops bonuses from Idiot Savant Level 2 from processing

Repro rate 5/5 (100%)

Repro steps:

1. Attain Idiot Savant Level 2 perk

2. Save game

3. Turn in one quest

4. Note level of XP gain

5. Reload save and turn in quest again until Idiot Savant sound/image are shown on screen

6. Observe additional XP is gained

7. Attain Idiot Savant Level 3 perk

8. Turn in one quest

9. Observe level of XP gain

10. Reload save and turn in quest again until Idiot Savant sound/image are shown on screen

11. Observe that no additional XP is gained

That sounds like another bug. I have not seen it chain either. Looks like the new patch did more to mess the game up. It didnt fix anything.

Thank you for adding this to the thread.

It is very unfortunate how many bugs there are turning out to be. They need to be patched or we will be left with a broken game.
