Mole rats in cul-de-sac triggers crash-loop

Post » Sat Feb 13, 2016 10:40 pm

So apparently this happened.


I blocked a mole rat attack and let the rest of it spread into a cul-de-sac of empty rooms,

figuring they would eventually disappear, same as happens with fire and radroaches.

But as they ran out of room and tried to 'go somewhere else' the game crashed and I'm

now stuck in a crash-loop, triggered by mole rats repeatedly trying to leave the last room.


No amount of reboots seems to help. Every time I load my vault I get a few seconds

where I can just confirm the molerats still being there, before another crash happens.


Anybody else?



Thanks a lot Bethesda. Would it kill you to actually playtest your app? Or read the forum?

Same issue


Had mole rats in living quarters. Same issue.

Here's a work around.


I sent a character there and it still kept crashing.


I did the same thing, but I checked my objectives and removed the one that is survive X mole rats without dying.


After I removed it, the mole rats disappeared and my game stopped crashing.


Hope this helps.

Came here to say I have the same problem!

Just about to complete the survive X mole rat attacks and as soon as they finish in the last unoccupied storage room near an elevator the game crashes. Reward is an animal kennel, and as I'm incredibly smart when I first discovered this bug I figured I would log out to main menu so I could get closer to the crash each time, now the game crashes after the gamecenter welcome, can't even see the vault anymore.

Same issue for me.



I'll have to wait until tomorrow to try removing the "survive X mole rats" objective to see if that works. I've already removed an objective for the today.



It'll svck a bit because the objective reward was a lunchbox.

I tried the workaround mentioned above (to remove the objective) but by the time I'm able to tap on the Pip-boy icon, the app crashes. I tried several times but the vault is already loaded and running before the load screen disappears. I hope Bethesda is aware of this issue and will provide a fix soon.

I have emailed MULTIPLE times in the last 12 days (which is the last time I was able to open my vault), and have been ignored. I escalated my complaint to iTunes.



HAVE YOU SPENT MONEY ON THIS APP???



Report a problem with Apple to get a refund. I have been refunded most of my money instantly, and 2 small purchases are pending refund. I'm hopeful I will get all my money back. You should too. Here's the website I used:

I'm now experiencing this bug. My game doesn't load enough to see anything, I hear a Mr handy collect something, hear molerats and then crashes while still seeing the load screen. This first occurred when the molerats were too far away to successfully attack. I have a new phone, and still have my 2 week old save that I should be able to backup.

I believe this is happening to me.



My game was in the middle of a Molerat attack in a collection of empty rooms, right when the attack is about to end, the game crashed.



I am no longer able to get into the game without it crashing, so I have no ability to remove the objective, is there anything I can do to recover this game save??

Thank you for informing us of this issue.
We will be closing this thread out as it is a duplicate topic. In the meantime, however, there's a very helpful workaround http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1573550-a-solution-for-crashing-right-after-loading-game-v13/. This discussion is very similar with similar workarounds. We would suggest that you direct further commentary to this location.
