Forum:HELP major glitch!!

Ok I have a problem that I adressed on the big town disscusion page but I noticed some others that seem related and I think more people will notice it here. I went to the Red Racer factory to get the sergeons coat so I could use the medical benifit to heal Timebomb and get his 8 ball. when I went to Big town all the citizens grimaced at me, and followed me around with there weapons aimed at me. After a few minuted they stoped following me but continued to grimace and aim. I noticed I could not talk to any of them or pickpocket anyone. I also noticed that fawks aims his gatling laser at me and dogmeat growls at me. at first i thought maybye they were nervous of fawks, him being a super-mutant and all so I fired him but he didn't leave. I also could not talk to him to get him back. I went to a power station somewhere south and fired him but when i returned to big town it had no effect and somehow he folowed me. I then ignored it and wened in to heal timebomb but when I healed it he grimaced at me and I couldnt talk to him to get the 8 ball. Also none of the citizens apeared hostile on the radar and when i killed them the others didn't react at all.

Two other things: when I fast travel it auto-saves (it always said auto-save but never actualy did it. Second when I went to the power station a yao-guai began to attack and kill dogmeat even though I have animal friend and I registerd friendly in VATS.

this is amazingly annoying and I basicly have given up the game untill I can fix it it seems as if someone is purposlt trying to make it as miserable as possible for me. Anyone encounters the same things!! HELP!!! —Preceding comment was unsigned. Please sign your posts with ~ !

How did you finish the quest? Spoon 14:49, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Which quest?

I taugt them how to use their pistols and they fought of the mutants with only one guy dying, I forgot who it was. Also I only rescued red, not shorty. also this began to happen far after I completed the quest so I dont think they're related. Good to know someone is taking notice of my problem! (by the way i tried to get them to build the robots but after i repaired the sentry the citizens made no effort to reapir the protectron which i could not find.)

Not sure but maybe its because you didn't help defend Big Town and they dont want you there. - Airraid232

Try to Reload your game to the most previous slot? when a glitch happens to me i just reload it to my earliest save and its gone
