Constant Dissapearing NPCs

Post » Tue Nov 08, 2016 5:25 pm

Someone please help. First off, In the "proving honour" quest from the companions I'm told to talk to skjor by farkas but he is so Far East of the map across the borders meaning I can't reach him, meaning I can't finish the companions quests which is frustrating. Secondly, in the dark brotherhood quest "mourning never comes", when I have to tell muiri I have killed her targets I can't because she is north of the map behind solitude, again, off of the map and behind the borders. Is anyone able to let me know what's wrong as I want to carry on the companions and dark brotherhood quest lines. I'm playing on Xbox one and haven't used mods.

Sorry to say this is a common bug that has impacted many players who purchased the Special Edition. I've got it myself :-( .



After a certain amount of hours played (40-50 for me) named NPCs start materializing in the twilight zone, rather than the main gameworld. Not sure if it's based on a saving issue, but to minimize it I would not fast travel or hard save, just leave your game in sleep mode when your session ends



Bethesda is aware of the issue and supposedly working on a patch. However the Beta testers are reporting it's still not fixed yet so.....might be a while before we've got a solution. Worst part is that saved games may not be fixed, so a re-start might have to happen.



Given the type of glaring issues SE has, I'm wondering if BGS just "assumed" the game would be fine.... Seems like the pre-release QA testing needs to expand outside of the shop more, this has got to be embarrassing especially since the game is not new to them...

Quiet sighs and nods.

If this happens on PC version is there any way to use the console or anything to move the NPCs?
