Forum:Weird deathclaw movement?

i was going to little lamplight with one of the brotherhood of steel, and right before i was about to enter into little lamplight i noticed a red blip on the radar. the woman brotherhood of steel i was with started shouting and ran over to the blip, so i had to follow. then, all of a sudden i see what can only be described as a rocket shoot up to the sky and go so high it disappeared. i tried aiming to see if it was still up there, and after i couldnt see it i looked all around to se if it had fallen back down. it made no noise or anything. the brotherhood of steel woman, stoped running and said "huh? must have been a glitch!" to, at which point - i didnt really know if i was playing a game or what!

it turned out it could have been a death claw, because i reloaded a save from about 30 seconds earlier and the blip was there but the above didnt happen. all that happened was the BoS got swiped whilst i tried shish-kebab-ing the claw from behind. she died.

has anyone else seen this? i couldnt find anything written on this from the deathclaw pages..83.244.157.5 11:42, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

I've only had it happen once, but it is a pretty common occurrence. I posted this a while back....

"So, I found the firelance after a couple minutes of searching. It landed about 15 feet away from the red rocket. I started looking for the power cells, found a few and then happened upon a deathclaw. I equipped the firelance and took aim. He charged at me and then I experienced the super-high-flying-deathclaw glitch. Before he flew completely out of sight I managed to hit him with one shot. He burst into flames and flew through the sky like a roman candle until he disappeared. He hasn't landed yet. What a strange set of events!

I've had something like this happen with a robobrain, I shot her in free aim with ol' painless, one-shot kill, but she disappeared instantly after, roughly 2 seconds later, she flew from right to left across my screen, landed perfectly upright with no visible damage at all, but dead. I'm sure I saw her brain-case explode.....



I just got to the Deatchclaw Sanctuary with Jerico and he went nuts shooting into the air. I saw this Deathclaw zooming down only to shoot straight up into the air. This happened 3 times before we got inside. If you see this, I'd suggest loading up the rocket launcher.
