Crazy Mayhem! : IV

» Fri May 20, 2011 2:30 pm

Hey I have the general FCOM setup as well as quite a lot of additional ones and everything works but there is extreme mayhem in every direction outside. The moment I got on the roads I saw 5 or 6 NPCs randomly running around attacking everything in sight. It was pretty funny because there was a huge battle of animals vs the NPC's and the animals pretty much won but I dont think that is *working as intended* lol. Guards are also dying a lot, they randomly run around chaotically attacking fish in the water and always die to the sharks. O.O

Just thought I would show my load order as well as 2 screenshots of my relations and factions bash. Is there anything I should uncheck? Or possibly some kind of road mod causing problems?

Thanks!

I don't see anything wrong with NPC's and creatures bashing each other if you are playing the game with FCOM....

Haha well it would be ok if there weren't NPC's dying every 5 seconds, and theres not one NPC who isnt running around hysterically. I cant even manage to catch up to any NPC who isnt inside a town. I just see lots of mass suicides on the streets and water. Im afraid everyone will be dead within the first few hours of the game lmao!

From my experience with FCOM, this is working as intended lol, but you might want to use BOSS on your load order.I love FCOM personally. Sometimes when the cells respawn the luck of the draw will be 20 goblins vs. the 3 imperial legion foresters. What you just were talking about it one of the reasons I love FCOM so much, it makes the game much more realistic, in that there is a good chance you will come across a bunch of bandits fighting mauraders right after killing a bunch of imps who were hunting deer, which were killed primarily by wolves. Only to turn around to a silver arrow in the forehead killing you in one shot. (True story)

Not to Hijack your post or anything, but one of my favorite level 1 experiences was,
I was heading toward Chorral on foot, because you can't fast travel unless you have been there already, and I came across a familiar fort on the way there. Once I get within the walls I get attacked a massive orc who insists on trying to punch me to death and some breton battlemage who just runs away and flings spells. Well I'm antronoach sign so i don't mind the spells, especially since half of them just give me mana, so I proceed to kill the orc and attempt to run down the breton. After killing the breton I look down into the main courtroom of the dungeon to find that 12-15 nps are fighting each other lol. It turned out to be raiders vs bandits (opposing factions) so iIjust watched the fight and cleaned up afterwords. I didn't get anything good -.-. So after leaving the fort I start to go up a small hill, mostly because I saw a cave marker not too far off the road and the combat music starts. Two freaking fruitbats attack me (lol), so i one shot both the little buggers, but I remain in combat. So I cautiously continue until an impling flies past me and joins a group of nearly 10 other implings who are fighting another 5 fruitbats. I proceed to slaughter all of them. Admittedly I was feeling pretty confident when I resumed hiking up the hill. I finally reached the top and I could clearly see the cave. (as a side note I just got out of the sewers so I'm a lv.1)Unfortunately I soon regretted seeing the cave because 3 full grown clannfear and a scamp are just outside it killing a grizzly bear (which could probably 2 shot me). So I turned tail and ran away as soon as the grizzly dropped dead. Needless to say I did try to run backwords and take down a clannfear with spells and my 2-h maul(not hammer), but I tripped over a dead fruitbat (thank you Duke Patrick!) and the clannfear nearly kills me so i turn around and run with roughly 1/4 health of my health left and don't look back haha. I made it back to the road, but I was still in combat, so I started watching the hill i just ran down for enemies and heal myself to about 3/4 health. Right after I got my health back up to 3/4 I get hit for roughly half of whats left from behind me and I wheeled around just to see a very angry orc in fur armor, weilding a steel warhammer, and screaming at me to die. So I drank a restore health potion I scavanged off the dead bandits and started fighting him. I manage to get him to about 1/2 health and he runs off, so i chase after him only to find that he was leading me to his two orc companions, a rouge shaman, and a barabarian with a 2-h axe. So I manage to split them up and kill them off one by one. I took one now dead orc's war hammers, and proceeded turn around and resume my treck towards Chorral. I walked up the road to where I knew a fort with a pretty tough kajit bandit was, so I slowed down and pulled out my wepon. I am quickly set upon by two boars (they do about 1/2 my health bar per hit) and am forced to run backwards swinging my hammer in order to keep them off me. I eventually managed to kill both (well one ran away) and I once again tried to proceed though the fort. I made it through the courtyard with no interference from bandits. So I relaxed a little and resumed walking down the road only to come upon a pack of 3 wolves, they weren't putting up too difficult a fight but I was forced to use my last potion and I remained rather low on health. Near death and still fighting the wolves I am startled to the point of shouting explatives by no less than 4 mounted guards racing towards me screaming for the emporer who proceed to charge right past me and engage a large group of bandits only a few yards behind me. I had no clue how they had snuck up on me, but I decided to leave them to it rather than risk my own skin. To my unending amusemant a stray arrow from the fight hit the last remaining wolf, killing it instantly, wich allowed me to heal myself somewhat using the meat from the earlier encounter with boars and the newly felled wolves to make a potion. And so I soon joined the all out war against the bandits. Needless to say we won and I was able to repair my broken equipment (everything) using a hammer from one of the bandits. I then proceeded to save and take two steps before a troll came running out of the woods and killed me. This all took about 15 minutes.

I love FCOM!
