Forum:VATS not working

Often times when I'm playing FNV, I'll hit the VATS button and nothing will happen. It's not because something is too far away, but it'll just not work or it'll still make the clicking noise but it won't target anything. I could literally be standing right next to an enemy and it won't work. It's not my PS3 controllers, either, since I tried switching them. Anyone else had this? Sometimes it'll work again if I switch weapons or re-load a different save. Glomulus 21:43, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

this always happens to me on 360, usually after reloading, I push vats buttn then it wont let me shoot for like 10 sec,(enemies are still killing me) then it randonly pops into vats.

Happens to me a lot, too. Although it works if I put my gun away then press the VATS button. Hopefully it's a bug that'll be fixed soon.

I get it too. Its hard to tell if its the controllers or not, but I'm pretty sure its a bug.

PS3 - What the 3rd Poster says. Holster your weapon and then hit the VAT's button. Sometimes switching from 1st to 3rd person view worked for me too - but that's not a lot of good with an angry NPC charging at you! Personally I've now given up with VAT's altogether and get along just fine without. P3dantic 15:19, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
