Forum:Moderately Off-putting Glitch

I got into a heated firefight near Dukov's place (3 mirelurk hunters, a centaur, 2 enclave soldiers, 3 raiders, and an enclave officer, if that's relevant at all), killed everything, left the area with fast travel to sell my loot, came back with fast travel, went to the scene of the fight, and one of the raider's "gore" was hanging in the air above his corpse. By gore, I mean that above this guy's body, were brain fragments, two eyeballs, and skinless arms (like, muscle and whatnot shaped like arms, with hands and fingers still attached) floating in the air a few feet above him. The gore in question is arranged like they would be if there was a person attached (the 'head' parts are between and above the 'arm' parts). I have the Bloody Mess perk, and think I killed him with a combat shotgun, if that means anything. This does not appear to affect gameplay at all, but man it's weird to look at.

[UPDATE:] If I leave and come back with fast travel, more and more body parts start to appear in this fashion. I can also pick up and move the parts in question with the right analog stick. Oh yes, this is on the 360 version.

-- yes. we might love this game but it wasn't quite ready to come out of the oven. still alot of little things like that. My faviourts are, shooting someone with a lazer pistol and watching them fly up into the air, Then having to kill them while they're up there. --NeoScott 08:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC) --

That kinda thing happens to me too. Any time I kill anything thats moving faster than walking pace (and it even happens then from time to time) with VATS, it flies off, literally miles away. Once I killed a Yao Guai near where you find the 2nd Keller Tape on the way to the Bethesda Ruins. I blow his head off in VATS, and he flies off. I found his decapitated body hanging off the walkway between Betheda Offices East and West. I use the PS3, so it froze right then as well. Run4urLife! 21:03, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

I see this alot too. Several times when I have gone to Chaste Acres all the liquor bottles and ashtrays were hovering 10+ feet over the ground. A few places with see-through rocks. The worst has been follwers hitting objects. This morning I was raiding Bethesda w/ Charon. As we were leaving northbound towards Scrapyard he kicked the burned out car, that was part of the raider barricade, all the way to the top of the hill. If only he would shout GOOOOOOOOOOOAAALLL!!--JiNX Bloodfang 20:22, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

I notice that when i fast travel and there are dead corpses in the area, that they first appear standing as if still alive, but then fall down. maybe some parts glitch and dont fall. TheoQ99 01:52, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
