I'll go ahead and add the "zombie child" bug to this topic.

The "zombie child" glitch is where your child will permanently stand in one spot and will not react to anything.

The wierd thing about this glitch is that whatever causes this glitch occurs before the effects of the glitch are experienced. I have a save with one of my characters where she is with her family and her daughter works fine and runs around like normal. However if I leave the area and come back she just stands in one spot doing nothing. I have tried everthing I can think of to prevent this (leaving the area,moving the family to a different house in the same area, moving the family to a different house in a different area, all the expressions, giving gifts) but nothing fixes the problem nor does it prevent  it from occuring.

I bougt a house in Oakvale, moved my wife and kid in, then decided I didn't like that house so I bought one in Brightvale and moved my wife and kid in, and now I can't sell or rent out my house in Oakvale. I can only set the allowance thing and enter decoration mode.

Other than that I havn't hit any glitches yet.

But I don't like those Will lines on my face.

They like, glow in the dark >.>

I've got a glitch here which has basically made my game forfeit. Which makes me sad.

I'll run through things that might be relevent.

1) Played for a while, no problems
- Imported Pubgame stuff
2) Joined a Coop game, lost all my XP and Gold
3) Continued in my original game, got back to the level I was killing bandits and hobbes and the like
4) Played happily until now ...

I visited a pubgame merchant guy, played a game of cards, banked out.

And now the game is attempting to give me unlimited Plaits Hairstyle cards. I press 'take', and another one pops up on the screen. I turned the game off, turned it back on again - and it's still trying to give me the cards.

Sigh

Looks like I'll have to start all - over again I guess...

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

If the silver grey thing is what I think it is, I think it is an intentional result from using Will power, kinda like Maze had in the first game

Hi, I have "Rescuing Charlie" Quest stuck at the top of my screen where it says (Skip conversation) and it isn't letting me use the A button for opening doors and other things that involve the A button, even if I quit and come back the message stays at the top of my screen, help please

Well looks like it breaks the whole game I can't pick up the main stories quest item or interact with anything. I guess my fable 2 experience is over. run, a whole 2 days

"You can call me Cream."- Soul Cream, after slaughtering over 9000 fable villagers.

I was told to post here, so I guess I shall.  This is a copy of my post in my actual thread.

 

Ok, so I will reveal a few details about the situation, but truthfully I wouldn't consider it a spoiler.

So, heres the sitation:

 

It started out by me "Tracking" the Sculpter Quest in Oakville.  I follow the shiny lines to the person and enter the designated area.  The "Scene" initiates.  I hold down the A Button to interact with the Sculptor, but as it fills up nothing happens.  I try numerous times, walk in and out of the designated area and yet even though it goes to a full circle around the A, nothing happens.  So, I figure I'll come back later and it should work.

I begin to walk away, and after a bit I was walking very slowly, was unable to cast, attack and etc., like what normally happens in an in-game scene.  Not able to speed up, I got annoyed to I reset the system and when I logged back in, it still was acting as if I was in a "Scene", which at that point I was already on the other half of Oakfield.

So, next I try to teleport out of there, but I get a message saying "Unable to leave during a scene" (Or something along those lines).  So I try to Zone Out manually.  It works, and all functions are restored to normal.  I go back to Bowerstone, do The Crucible, and some other stuff.  Later on, I figure I'll go visit the Temple of Light.  As soon as I Zoned Into Oakfield, it started all over again. So, I tried doing the quest (At numerous times of the day) and it still didn't let me.  I then left and started posting here.

It's very annoying - Not only does it limit my ability to properly interact in Oakfield, it makes my character walk terrible slow and not able to attack/shoot/cast.

Some Details:

-The first time I tried to do the quest, it was late evening.
-As soon as I entered the designated area, by chance my dog found some treasure.
-I tried Evening, Night, Morning and Afternoon yet still didn't let me.
-I have reset the system, left the game numorous times, left teh zone numorous times, and even did some shopping & quests.
-Only happens in the zone "Oakfield".
-The Sculptor doesn't react to me at all.
-Keeps on refering to "Scene".
-Doesn't allow me to Attack, Cast, Shoot, Run, or even walk at normal speeds.
-Doesn't allow me to Teleport (Instant Travel) out of the zone.  I must leave manually.

 

This is a very annoying bug and I doubt I can avoid Oakfield forever.

Any information, suggestions or overall help you may have is appreciated!

Quest: archaeologist(2nd item she asks you to find)
So I found the item she wanted but when I returned to give it to her and enter the golden circle it doesn't do anything, she won't take it or interact with me at all.

I'm at the part where I have to follow Hammer to Brightwood and I went back to the Guild Cave to try and find a Gargoyle.  It gave me the option again to have Theresa translate Lucien's diary, so I held down A as usual it gets to the end and nothing goes on.  It has apparently reset the quest line to the part where I have to give her the diary, and every time I try to leave the guild cave in any way it says I can't until the scene has ended.

I have a new bug to report. My daughter will not move, talk, or act. Like she is frozen or mute or something, I had a son and daughter and after I moved the family to the homestead, she just stands by the sign and acts like you dont exist, like the world doesnt exist. I hope the move didnt make my daughter withdraw into an autistic mode or something (that is how she acts currently)

niuhuskie2009:

I can't seem to buy furniture at all anymore.  I bought a more expensive double bed and a dresser at the beginning of the game and now nothing is for sale except some stupid book.  I've tried sleeping for weeks to see if inventories replentish.... no luck.  I did buy the business too so I could get the discounts.  It's hard to get discounts when there's nothing for sale!!!!

I have the same exact issue.

But one more game ending glitch i have came across is that i am now unable to lock onto targets. I cant lock on to villagers, bad guys. anything that requires the left trigger, does not work. if anyone has found a solution please help.

My game froze right after it autosaved, and now if I try to load my game it's just a black screen

alphaniner:

My D-pad menu has disappeared.  I made the mistake of saving my game and now it seems all my progress is ruined, because reloading, quitting and reloading didn't bring it back.
Apoligies if this has been mentioned already.  I didn't see a search thread tool.  I started a thread but is already on page 3 30 minutes later.

This would not have been so detrimental if we had more than one save slot!

I had this happen too, I thought I would try and get the chest in the chamber of fate to close again to see if it would give me my Limited Content cuz I already started the game and opened it, anyway so i went and did the fable2.com chicken kickin so the chest would close and I could open it and possibly get my content well what I got was 250 gold no content and an extra gold bag yes i have two gold bags and no D-pad menu

here is a new one i think.. after playing around in the gargoyle trove in bowerstone. everytime i exit water onto land my character draws his sword.

I'm having the same problem, are we just screwed?

I've found a bug that allows you to gain an infinite amount of General Experience (you can max out your character's skills in around 17 seconds) but for obvious reasons I don't want to post it for all to see...

Is there anyway to get in touch with someone from Lionhead? I tried emailing the community staff and I got an automated response.

I have had two problems.  I am unable to buy furniture, all the person has is some book.  That was a problem until I had my next problem and now I can't do anything.  My second (and now only) problem is when I went to play a pub game in bowerstone market (I believe keystone) it keeps showing me the Plaits Hairstyle over and over again once I tried to leave the game.  It appears I'm not the only one to have this problem.  When I close out the game and tried to reload my saved game it just brings me right back to the Plaits Haistyle over and over again and doesn't let me do anything.  I had put in so much time and I had to lose all of my work. Am I SOL?

I've been experiencing some of the more minor bugs that you guys have listed here, read through them all just to make sure I wasn't dupicate posting.

I just found a bug with the Master weapons. It's nothing big, just really annoying. First off, I'm not sure if you should be allowed to sell them while augmented, but I can't. Secondly, I bought a second weapon of the exact same type and augmentation slots (Rifle + 2 slots). I augmented the second rifle with the two new augs I had acquired so I could benefit from newer, better augs. For some reason, when I equip one of the rifles...BOTH show as equipped. And no matter how many times I tell it I want the new rilfe equipped, I only ever get the augmented benefits of the old rifle.

There you go, that's my bug

Cheers.

I have recently encountered three bugs in my Fable 2 game. Describing these bugs may contain spoilers so if you have not finished the game please do not read.




#1 After getting the quest to drop off the dark seal for Reaver than return to him my dog became glitched. He now has a constant circle above him labeled "Quest" and hangs out at the zone lines. My dog no longer will help me find buried things, treasures or even follow me around. He simply stands at zone entrances and barks non stop.

#2 After beating the game and selecting the middle (love) option I returned home to find a new quest to rescue my son from a Hobbe cave. After clearing the cave and having my son follow me to the exit I found that my son would never leave the cave. Ever. He'll follow me to the ladder exit but if I use the ladder he won't follow me out of the cave.

#3 Is linked to the above bug. After exiting the cave I attempted to zone back to Bowerstone. Once I hit the zone line I fell through the world leaving my character in a permanant falling animation.

Of the three bugs the first is game breaking. As I now have no way of completing the game and digging up all the treasure or even opening all the demon doors as my dog no longer does anything but stand in place with the label quest above it and bark (Changing the quest will change where the dog stands but the dog doesn't ever help me find treasure or buried things and frequently stands opposite near where I have to go).

The second bug breaks one quest. And only one quest. The third bug only happens while attempting to do that already broken quest.

Please note that saving and quitting does not reset any of these to a functional state. My dog is permantly broken as is that quest.

I have a wierd bug. So I thought to myself, hey, I gave the wife a cheap engagement ring, I'll give her a nicer one as a gift. It gave me the message that I was engaged. So eventually she wants a nice house, so I try moving her to Oakfield.... and now I have a duplicate wife and she thinks i'm cheating on her... with herself.

*********MAJOR BUG*********

I was able to get unlimited ability points by discarding Skill - Speed.  The skill is not discarded but the points are awarded when selecting discard this was on rank 2 "Skill - Speed" but I believe all levels of the ability are effected.

I encountered it when I attempted to spend ability points right after exiting the cave with the first hero, where we got the water for the gold acorn and fought hollow men but before her father died.

This is why I refuse to do QA at my job

I have had the same problem Aaron, just that I can draw my weapon but I can't initiate quests or continue older ones.  I am thinking about starting another game on another profile (offline) so that way when there is a patch available I will be able to continue my 10 hours of playing game.

BUG: Fell through environment exiting the Wellspring Cave (to Rookridge)

I was exiting the Bandit Cave above Rookridge (Wellspring Cave), and I fell though the environment, onto an invisible platform under the surface. I then walked forward, and started falling non-stop, into what looked like a giant sun.I'm a software tester (I tested Fable 1, and Lost Chapters), and this is definitely a bug. I was running out of the cave, and I fell through just as I hit the rocky floor that covers the cave entrance.

Me too

yesterday I merged my hero with my pub character, and I get back my money, and  my items but today when continue my game, I observe that all my money is lost and the items were still present. I try to Relaunch a game with a "gamemaster"  in one of the pubs for check my rewards and after leave the game a item already unlocked (Hairstyle) appear on screen and the game stay block on this screen item and i press all functions buttons available but it is not possible to leave of this screen. I restarted several times the game but I always return to this BUG screen. I also launch pub game arcade and my hero character is unavailable.

I think that bug occure when change the nickname of hero. the syncro with pub game is corrupted.

 

Help Help Help Please.

Freefighter, exact same issue here.

... that's right... she was carrying a chair in her hand.


I named her Chair Lady.
