i can do any thing


i mean he cant run, shoot, hit, or use magic it all started when i went to talk some guy at the crucible rifle range i could leave the area into the howling hills were i could use everthing but any thing to do with the story line i couldnt use the a,x,y,or b button at all now im stuck in the spire and i cant leave the area were you save the magic hero dude

i need help its a bug of something and i cant use my character!!!!!!!!

This is not a game-breaking glitch, but quite often my dog will start growling all the time.  Whether or not there is anything there, and across the whole map.  Meaning I can't dig up treasure.  He stops growling if I change regions.

dttuner:

I will continuously update this thread with any/every bug I find throughout the game, in order to help Lionhead studios provide us with updates and fixes.
FYI - I love this game, and will most likely play it through at least 2-3 times.

1)  Furniture Bug - Purchased a home, and went into "interior decorating" mode (or whatever its called). Went inside and just pointed at a few things, and clicked A to see what would happen. Decided not to change anything, and left the house. Since then, I've had the message at the top of the screen "Take this item to the furniture store,..etc.etc."
Even after exiting, and reloading my game! Turned it off last night in frustration. We'll see what I encounter when I return home from work tonight.

2) Graphical Bugs - Lakes extending into the air, Dog appearing to dematerialize, Skin/Face having patches of silver or grey...etc. This is one of the biggest detractions from the story and essence whichs makes Fable2 a great game.

3) Unable to Cast more than one Level 2 Spell - This is a design issue. Please, Will/Casting has always been my favorite part of any RPG. Don't detract from this feature by only allowing us to upgrade and cast one level 2 spell at any given time, without having to enter a menu.

...will keep you updated with more.
Thanks

4) A quote from a thread i made "I did the Rescuing Charlie quest and when i finished it Theresa talked to me but her talking inturrupted the quest talking and now i have a "Skip Conversation" message on my screen... makes it extreamly annoying when i try to pick up items and talking to people cause half the time it just does the hold A thing for the message. i tried saving and loading and that did nothing. (This bug stops you from doing most things you need the "A" button for."

Most of the time thats just him chasing his tail or when he senses enemys ahead.

Just wanted to note that I fixed the first bug I mentioned (about The Hero of Will) by teleporting around to a few locations, then going back to the Guild.  So there's that.

availingfaith:

1. Applying secondary dye to any item causes the screen to jump, glitch and pause.  This happens every single time.

Place: Browerstone

2. Working as a Black Smith you lose your gloves.  When you are done working you have to re-equip your gloves.

3. Audio - There are a lot of audio issues.  For example when listening on a 5.1 surround system and in a Town, you will hear very loud spikes in the speech of townsfolk's.  No they are not yelling at me, just talking normal when all the sudden audible level of their voice spikes really loud. 

4. Not being able to assign potions to the D-pad ala Fable 1 really sucks.  Having to go to the pause menu really takes you out of the action. I know the game automatically chooses a food item or potion but it's never what I actually wanted to use.

5. Menu lag.  If your going to force us to spend a ton of time in the start menu, at least create a lag-free enviroment.

I love Fable and Fable 2 was by far my most anticipated game of the year.  That said, the lack of polish sucks.  I really feel like I'm playing a Beta version of the game.  So many graphic and audio errors. 

Please patch all these issues,  Fable deserves better.

 

 

I am experiencing #1 as well.

Also, I am experiencing a glitch. It began last night no matter who I marry when I look at their stats card it says that my wife hates me, there is the gold ring icon but a red X through it. However the little bar that we use as a visual reference to see the progress that we've made is all the way to the right, meaning that she loves me too?!?

It's happened three times now as soon as I get married. Also I think it causes a sex glitch of some sort.....Everything will go off without a hitch until I press A at the bed, then it asks "protected sex" or "unprotected sex" I click one and nothing happens it just says I slept and then my wife seems to be mad at me for it?!?

Other than that I've had no problems, I do experience some slow down, but nothing major. Except in the beginning my Hero was frozen in his combat stance, instead of walking he would just glide everywhere had to restart the game to work it out.

 

This concerns me overall, it feels that Lionhead did rush this game. Which is saddening. It seemed as though they had a lot of time, perhaps I was wrong. If the bugs are this bad esp. for those who experience the main questline bugs. I have yet to see about mine. I've barely started the questline.

I really do hope that Lionhead can and will make patches to address these problems, it is a thing that consoles can now accept these, but at the same time it's nto a thing as here of late it allowed devs to half ass things with the intent to fix it later.

re: slowdown, can't use do anything but walk around in Westcliff after speaking to shooting gallery guy.

I'm having the exact same problem. Someone else in another thread did too.

I'm not really sure what thread to post this in, because I keep getting sent to other threads.

But my problem is identical to this one, and no-one has had any suggestions that worked.

(i.e.- clearing cache, letting the game sit and "catch up", )

This is a real problem, and should be addressed.

I've dove off 5 foot edges, hung there for about 10 seconds and got the cliff diver achievement.

Many invisible walls.

My dog is stuck in water. It cant move, I can go on the other side of the map, and that retard will still be stuck in the water.

Many times, I've left cut scenes that never ended. Cant do anything but walk in slow mo, and enemies just stand there. Cant go into menu... nothing!

My hero feels like he's always walking on ice, I dont know if this is a glitch or if this is the way the game was designed.

Went to rearrange furniture and the "buy more furniture to replace this item" stays at the top of my screen at all times. I've tried going back into the house and exiting, I've tried buying new furniture all to no avail. I'm getting tired of looking at.... "buy more furniture to replace this item." It's going to burn an image into my screen, and I want lionhead to buy me a new one..

NASTY bug....spoilers*************

First on "till death do us part", the ghost gave me a sob story about a woman who broke his heart a led him to kill himself. He gave me a rejection letter. I decided to be a guy... so I destroyed the letter and married her. Then the greedy wife glitch started and she was taking more than I could make so I killed her. Went back to the ghost and the quest bugged out hardcore, It wont let me finish the quest. Just keeps saying go back to ghost, over and over and when I get there it goes into a cut scene then she runs off. The male ghost just stands there like a retard and does nothing but wave his arms for eternity.

Couldn't get the quest to end so I thought I had to be to the female ghost or something. So I charmed here into marriage... YEP married to her ghost and we had kids. Yep, a blue ghost with a wedding band over her head. Then my ghost wife "divorced me and moved to another region" then the game locked up. Time to start all over.******



I run around a ghost myself sometimes, I can only see my weapon.

They need to PATCH the living hell out of this game, until then, it's going on ebay.

Really thread this dttuner  One that can help Lionhead understand our problems in the game and get rid of the bugs and gliches by DLC patches. Really great to see one of your kind here, Gradius , bring our problems further up in the chain of LH studios, let us be heard loud and clear about FDable 2 problemos.

Anyway, I havent got the game yet (friday, sooo close...) but thanks to this useful thread, Im gonna be prepared for demonic and lesser bugs. Like I wont merge my characters until its sure that nothing screws up the merge for patron and hero (sad to lose all items and such for no logical reason), waiting for a patch alredy, yup I do.

Now this thread should be stickied, and the only gripe I have, organize the master post better so we all get a clearer overview of different kind of bugs, glitches etc.

Cant wait till I get the game, gotta sun bath my first hero to get a nice tan and dye his hair ruby red

night and hunti'n!

I have a game stopping bug that happened to me.

(SPOILER)

I talked to Theresa after decoding the diary, and them Hammer ran on ahead, I exit the guild and decide to return. At that point I get a line to use A to give the diary to Theresa, well I was holding a to run and stupidly went ahead and regave the diary to her, then turn around and went back into the cave and mined some beetles.. now I am stuck. Because Hammer is not there to redo her lines for the exact same scene I just witnessed, Theresa just sits there. I can not leave the area, the gate is down, and I get told (you cant leave until this scene ends). But the scene wont end. Scene wasnt supposed to even be possible.

 

Sadly, I went to work while trying to figure it out and my brother saved me where I am.

With all of those problems I really don't blame you, well hey maybe Fallout 3 will bring you better fortune. They may not fix these problems at all. But hopefully they do. I'm still in the beginning pretty much I've yet to do the Ritual, well I've just started. If I begin to run into problems like that I shall want my money back in full.

Man I hope to hell I don't experience these issues, it's kind od keeping me from playing the game, worried as hell.

for real this should be top of there priority list because it makes the game unresponsive btw how did it happen to you for me it was at the crucible firing range as i reported earlier. for now though im starting over with a new hero but i got so far in the other hero im very p.oed about it.

I was playing Co-op with a friend from the start of the game when you are kids. I then quit before we got to the guild hall. When I loaded up my data I found that all my gold, exp, and skills where gone. The gold won't be much of a problem to get back because I own pritty much everything, but the exp and skill will be annoying to get back. Looks like im going to have to buy a ton of exp potions.

Edit: Looked at my stats once more and saw that all my renown is gone....

I was talking to the firing range guy, when the option to accept came, the I pressed a and the loading bar circle around it would go all the way and not register the command. So after cursing god and debating wether or not to start over, I slowly walked out of westcliff to the caves, where i regained my abilities. Then I went to bowerstone and did a few more unfinished quests, though everytime I come back to westcliff it goes slo mo again. this time I went to the spire and it is still in slo mo with no abilities, though that might be part of it at this point. (don't want to spoil.) So yea, I could continue, but had to leave a few quest unfinished and the slo mo bug might still be affecting further gameplay.

I've been playing Fable 2 for about 15 hours now and was having a great time, and had amassed a small fortune; but now its all gone.

My X Box lost power while the game was saving, so I got a corrupted save file which results in the game telling me that the disc is unreadable when it attempts to load my continue.

Of course if Lionhead had allowed a system with multiple saves this wouldn't be a problem; but now gamers are suffering as a result of this sytlistic choice.  

Please Lionhead, tell me there is some way of accessing an older save; or at the very least get off your asses and get working on an update for this Now.

I could give a *** about online co-op; this is a much bigger deal.  I just lost hours of gameplay and I'm not even that far into the game.  Imagine if this were to happen to a player who was at the very end of the game.

The game is fun so I don't mind starting over that much; but I'm out lik 500 grand in gold here.

I had 50 grand in equipment, 85000 in gold, and I owned 3 stalls in Bowerstone, 2 stalls in Oakdale, the bar in Oakdale, the weapon shop in Bowerstone, the carriage house in Bowerstone and Oakdale, two houses in Bowerstone, and two houses in Oakdale and was a master blacksmith and woodcutter.

The only possible way I can think of for Lionhead to make up for my lost time is to get a hold of me through X Box live and send me about 500 grand.

My gamertag is implodinggoat.

Don't Tread On Me

Hey mister OP, when you update the list can you just edit the first post please? thx

Rhoic:

4) SAVING - Most RPG games out there allow you to create multiple saves. Am I missing somethnig here, or does Fable 2 not allow multiple saves? What if I'm not sure about a particular decision I'm about to make, and want to save right before I choose?
What if I'm not sure how much profit a store/home is going to make for me, and I want to save before purchasing? What if I receive a horrible scar in combat, etc, etc.?
Dev team, if it's possible, please allow us to create multiple/custom named saves.


Number 4 is not a bug. This was intentionally put in here so that if you made a wrong decision, you had to stick with it.

Actually, very few, if any, 360 games have multiple save files. You need to switch gamertags in order to make a new file.

i one were i cant see my weapon when i have it out but when its on my back i can see it

PhantomDraconis:

Game Killing Bug -

I made it to Oakfield and was supposed to go talk to the Abott, naturally I did other things when I first arrived. So this morning I go to talk to the Abott and as soon as I walk in the glowing circle disappears but the conversation does not begin and I can not get it to do anything. I quit out and reload my save and the same thing happens every time, I even tried going to another region and then back to the Temple and nothing happens. The large yellow circle on the map that represents your current quest has disappeared and now I am screwed since I went and did the sculptor side quest which immediately saved my game upon completion and now the game is saved with the quest icon missing. The quest is still in the log but yet again nothing happens when I return to temple. Now I would not mind restarting since I am not that far into the game, but I merged my money from Pub Games onto this character and so all of that gold and items go bye bye if I have to restart

 

I'm having the same exact problem, and I pretty much did the same thing you did verbatim. Me and my buddy have been trying to reconcile the fact that there's got to be some way around this, mostly because it's a seemingly mundane and ridiculous glitch. I would really prefer not to have to start over, so I'm hoping that some sort of update/fix is in the very near future. I'm almost glad I'm not the only one.

the childhood co-op bug is kind of annoying. i.e. joining anyone's game while they are a child wipes out all of your character's abilities, gold, and renown.. is there a fix to this.. BTW thanks for the game Lionhead bugs or not its still a wonderful game.

AtlasKish:

1 more to add is that if you leave the temple before the abbot is done talking to explore. The quest locks up and you are not able to speak to him later to initiate quest. Some others have had this same issue.

I didn't even go into the temple.  I just stood outside and heard the conversation - but, I didn't want to start the quest yet so I didn't go into the Temple.  Now, that I do want to start the quest, no one in the Temple will talk to me.  So, no quest for me.

ALSO, for some reason I cannot get the "blocked" bridge to the Market quest to begin.  I keep being told that I cannot travel to the market because the bridge is blocked by bandits, but the guy on the second level of the Tavern in Oakfield will not talk to me at all.  So, that quest will not begin for me either.

Actually, very few, if any, 360 games have multiple save files. You need to switch gamertags in order to make a new file.

Ok, maybe it should have been said this way...the BEST 360 games have multiple save files.  Such as:  Saints Row, Saints Row 2, Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3, Gears of War...at a bare minmum, most of them have the ability to go back and start over at the end of a quest or at the end of a previous segment.  Having to begin again at the BEGINNING of the ENTIRE game is, to say the least, absurd.  Especially if the problem is a glitch in the game design that caused the problem for the gamer.

the same thing happened to me.  When  the Crucible become playable again I  can probably get all my experience back in a few rounds of that. I am just going to move onto other games while my anger cools probably Far Cry 2 and Fallout 3.   

WARNING: DO NOT DO CHILD CO-OP  you WILL LOSE ALL YOUR XP.

1. The sound for the weapons and player just quit working, character doesn't make sound no matter what ( fixed with a restart of my 360 )
2. After restarting my 360, now my character doesn't walk. He slides. Slides around when running, slides around when walking, attack animations don't go all the way, they stop half way through. Like he's on ice. (xbox isn't hot and clearing cache didn't work)
3. CO OP doesn't work, it used to try to load/connect but always failed and now it doesn't even try, it just goes back to my regular game. :/
