Funniest thing that happened to you in Fallout?

Post » Sat May 17, 2014 2:13 pm

I thought this would be an interesting thing to discuss since, as we all know, Bethesda games, or games using Bethesda's engine are notoriously buggy, and at times these bugs can lead to truly hilarious things. This doesn't necessarily have to be in Fallout either, any Bethesda RPG really.

There are two things that had my laughing hard that come to mind. The first one being in Fallout 3.

So, whenever I play any game really, but mostly with open world games, after I save the game with intent of turning it off to go to bed or whatever, I always have to kill like, whatever person is front of me before I do so. So in FO3, Moira Brown was this victim. After I killed her, my grenade caused her to lose everything but one arm, so I went with my combat knife and chopped at it literally like 20 times before it finally exploded off, and when it did, I turn around and am startled by Nathan standing directly behind me. And as soon as I turn around he goes "God bless the USA, and no one else!" and walks out of Crateside. My sides were destroyed.

Another thing happened in Skyrim where I was fighting off some guys, I don't remember what type of enemy, human though. But anyway, I was fighting them, and saw a bear running toward us. Being a Wood Elf, I used Command Animal on the bear, and it started attacking my enemies. So one of the guys starts fighting the bear and confidently yells "YOU CALL YOURSELF A NORD?!". I had to pause the game for like five minutes just to recover from laughing so much.

So what about you? Any funny experiences you'd like to share from Fallout, Elder scrolls, I'd love to hear them!

I remember blowing a powder ganger and his limbs ,all five of them, started flailing uncontrollable and killed his friends and continued to kill everything in the vicinity including me.

In the beginning months of the game on the ps3, I remember watching a bighorner go flying up into the air like it was being abducted by a alien spaceship. It got up so high, and then it came flying back down and went splat. So I got some free bighorner meat out of it.

This also happened with a NCR hit squad member in salvaged power armor. I had to VATS kill him as he was 30 feet in the air above me. I didn't realize the NCR had jet packs.

Had three deathclaws chasing after me. Two of them triggered my mine i had set place. Only to fly up and stack on top of each other on the third one. Freaking transformer deathclaws. Then the one on top jumped off doing its leaping double swipe and i was dead.

In Fallout ~the Modoc Toilet; in New Vegas... I haven't really seen that much of it. For bugs, I got the usual 'eyes floating next to the dog', the 'Scorpions roaming the desert at 30° off the terrain'; and Doc stuck behind his shelf in the hall. /shrug.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':shrug:' />

Radscorpions cruising around on the tips of their stingers, 90 degree angle.

Killed a fiend with a headshot after taking Bloody Mess, and his eyes remained floating in the air - bloody nerves hanging from them- at the same height as his head used to be.

Oh, and this:

Silly tribal companion in honest hearts pulled a swan dive off a cliff for no reason.

If figured she deserved to die if she was that stupid.

I remember once talking to Red Lucy and she giving me the task of getting the Deathclaw eggs from Quarry Junction, then when I fast travel to Sloan and start walking there, I look back and who is running in my direction? Red Lucy.
