I have a short list.

1) As I've seen many times here: furniture sales in Bowerstone Market unavailable.

2) This problem ruined my day: I got all the way to the ship taking me to the Spire and had to save and quit. Well, first I decided to, well... say bye to my wife. So, I traveled to Bowerstone Market and noticed that the "Hold 'A' to accept quest" thingy for the Spire was still atop my screen and hampered me from doing any 'A' commands (which spoiled the evening for me and my spouse). I could do nothing. I had to start a new game.

3) Minor glitch: the little onscreen button to hold down the left trigger to view important events disappeared on me (no love lost on that one).

4) After going to the shooting gallery at Westcliff the score was permanently stuck in the right bottom corner of my screen.

Ok regarding the Plaits Hairstyle Card Glitch, I had the same problem. This has been a game ending glitch I cannot get around and I have tried almost everything. Luckily I had gotten slammed with the "losing all your experience glitch" first so I knew to back my character up on the off chance something like that happened again. The Plaits glitch is a lot worse.

What I have tried

1. Backing up hero on memory card or alternate profile, i have done both(unfortunately you can only back up your hero 1 save file in this fashion, even if you delete that save file you cannot copy hero 2 or 3)

2. Going to a different game master, my first glitch happened in Bowerstone Market, but it happened again in Oakvale (repeatedly) when i reloaded. I have the distinct honor of doing this glitch several times. on purpose Also if it has happened it will happen again anywhere with that save file even on another profile.

3. I even tried yanking the hard drive out during the game so it had no where to auto save to. If we could turn that auto save off it would at least keep the glitch from being game ending.

Thoughts

1. Time might have something to do with it, for example try to do the games before playing much of the story. The glitch did not come up the first time I played in Bowerstone Market. I played once before got all my winnings from the pub game and never played again until I had beat the game and was going after achievements. I will try this tomorrow.

2. It seems that there are several game changing scenes in the game like the spire and after the end of the game these scenes seem to be the cause of many other misfortunate glitches maybe if you do the achievement before them or in the middle somewhere.

3. Also what if you merge characters with someone who has won tornaments (like when i first played it) forcing the game to give you another item after the Plaits Hairstyle Card perhaps preventing a loop.

4.DOES ANYONE HAVE A WORK AROUND THAT WORKS,PLEASE,PLEASE, PLEASE I DON'T WANT TO SACRIFICE ANOTHER CHARACTER TO THE FABLE 2 GODS (LH studios)

hopefully i will have some news after my experiments tomorrow

But the Spire is Mine, Begone!

Oh yeah, the shooting range and other things would stick to my screen, too. Don't remember how they went away, but it was probably when I finally quit and loaded the game to play another time.

I just ran into one I haven't heard of before.

Set a 'Bounty Hunter' mission as my current job.  It was in Westcliff.  Arrived, followed the trial to the guard, he has the big yellow exclamation point over his head, but he acts like he has no mission to give.  Says random things to me if I stare at him long enough, and wanders around, but no mission.

It's still in my quests>job menu with like 8 days to go, so it's not like it's timing out.

One potion makes you larger and one potion makes you small and the one Lionhead didn't give you doesn't do anything at all...

The furniture bug is not limited to only Bowerstone, it can also happen in Bloodstone if it goes to a 5star economy. I haven't seen it do that same roll over (resets to 1 star) that Bowerstone gets but the furniture store now has only one item.

As the game is progressing I am getting bad lag in most areas that have around a 4 star economy. At first I thought it might be because of the upgraded furniture that is auto supplied to any house you do not own ( that did happen in my first game). But now I am not so sure since developed Westcliff now has the same lag issues. this effects any jobs or prolonged expressions you try to do. Clearing the cache does nothing to help it. Could it be simply to musch graphics for the 360 to handle?

I can't complete this quest either. I bought Fairfax Mansion, married Alex from Til death do us part, and had a kid. The rescue quest came up so I fast travel to Fairfax. It said my spouse was near the throne room but there's no one there. I checked all the rooms and even outside but I still can't find him.

I got tired after a while so I did other quests and even got marry again. I know that if I don't go see my family often then they'll be unhappy and divorce me. I haven't been there (Fairfax) for over a week (real time) but my family is still there. They're even happy and every time I go to do the rescue quest, it takes me to the same place.

So, my fiance and I finally bought ourselves a new 360, after over a year of me having a RROD'd dud, along with F2 on Black Friday.  Well, we do enjoy playing our respective characters for the most part, but we've (well, mostly I have) discovered some glitches that, while not necessarily game-breaking, were still annoying nonetheless.  Most of them I'm sure were just random occurances not related to bugs or oversight on the developers' part, and are simply due to technical limitations.  I'm certain that a lot of these have been brought up in previous posts, but I didn't read them since the thread has gotten so long.

1.) So as my character (female with strength/skill emphasis), I proposed to another chick in front of the Demon Door that gives you the Homestead (which I set as our marital home) and Hammerthyst as a reward.  Everything was honkydory for a while and I did the best I could to keep her in the "Happy" level for everything; I showered her with gifts, gave her an allowance that was over twice as much as what she desired, bumped uglies when she wanted it, and danced my legs off (it was her favorite Expression).  But then one day, I zone to the house after some questing, and she's standing in front of the DD exit and says something to the effect of "I don't need to be treated like this!  I'm leaving and you'll never see me again!" then wanders to the other side of the fence and stays there for a while before disappearing and I got the "Your spouse divorced you and left the region" alert.  While she was still visible, she went from "Happy" to "Missing You" and "Your spouse is divorcing you!" in the blink of an eye. 

At first I thought that it had something to do with me marrying Alex as part of the Till Death Do Us Part quest, even though I had set the Gypsy Caravan as his marital home, and she somehow found out, but the exact same thing happened after I moved Alex to the Homestead; he randomly dumps me after a certain amount of time in spite of me keeping his love meter completely to the right the entire time we were married.

Thus, the Homestead shall be my one-night-stand house.

2.) Many of the characters also encounter issues with their models during certain situations.  I've had enemy corpses sink into the map until only their legs and feet show, which are spastically flailing about (even causing the graphics to stretch) in an attempt to find a spot with collision detection while having some part of them pinned to the ground, or, in the Hobbe cave, the corpses will fly under the rock path and stick to the underside, causing them to bob up and down or vibrate.

3.) Somewhat related to the previous glitch, even my character model has issues that were especially prominent during the Crucible, which leads me to believe that the models are made of rubber.  I have the Long Hair style (at least I think that's what it's called; the one with the headband), and the hair tends to stretch and fly in random directions during combat or even when I start blacksmithing.  During the bandit stage in the Crucible with the flame turrets and explosive barrels, I learned the hard way that your character can't fall off ledges that would otherwise kill him/her, because I was too close to a barrel that exploded and knocked me off the ledge, but then I bounced back from the chasm, limbs flailing about at unnatural angles.

Similarly, getting hit by the rock troll's tremors caused my character to go rubbery; I'd land in a "taco" position a lot of the time, with her upper half bent backwards.

4.) The bloodlust roar sound effect plays a second time after I finished the expression.  Only seems to happen if I start running right after I finished the expression.

More to come whenever I encounter more glitches.

this is in referance to the glitch i noticed before

ive figured out why my character was extremly angled to hte left.

i started a new character and the first spell i bought was assasin rush/time control and as i was walking past the brightwood demon when i was attacked by bandits and i ussed assasin rush and after the fight i noticed my new char was extremly angled,but this time to the right.

this is how i  figure it, when i was walking past the demon door the "a" button option appeared as the door started to speak and my char was angled towards him,as though he was listening and when i rushed away he stayed in that position. so after i realised this i went back to the demon door and fooled around with the spell.and after trying to rush towards and away from the door at all possible angles nothing happend but when  i fast ravelled to bloodstone the angle was gone! but my other char was still the same.

ive also noticed when i use the rush version of this spell my weapons glow red. im not sure if anyone else has this but i played on my friends 360 and it didnt do that. i think when the weeapons glow like  that it could be a sign of this glitch. so helpfully this helps anyone else who might have already or will encounter this.

Here is a repost for the fix I found for the infinite plaits hair-card bug

I managed to somehow salvage my savefile from this bug. Here is what I did, if others could try it...

1) Join a friend's game choosing the bugged character file
2) Once in the friend's game, save and exit.
3) Exit Fable 2, without reloading the bugged save (important !)
4) Clear the XBox cache (XX-LR-RB-XX in the hard drive options). This deletes the current patch
5) Launch Fable 2. When prompted for an update, refuse it. This will disconnect you from XBox Live.
6) Load your bugged file, it should work.
7) Save and exit. You can now reapply the patch

A word of warning : the bug will reappear if you speak with another Game Master, so that part of the game is now out of question until Lionhead fixes it. I guess this bug is related to the Fable 2 Pub Games reward system...

Sooooo...

Any word on a patch, yet?  Nah, of course not.....we've got new DLCs to sell and support!

No other or service I can think of has this final sale aspect to it (food of course).  I paid you $60 for a product.  Said product doesnt work like you said it would.  I want my money back.

Addendum: my fiance went through the Crucible a second time, and his character's hair got stuck to the ceiling while fighting the rock troll and got thrown around the screen from one of its tremors.  And the words "Room 6" got stuck on the screen and it wasn't until several minutes after leaving the area and zoning to the Temple of Light that the words for perfect matches and enemy names and whatnot started scrolling through rapidly.

He's also got the "Vanishing Spouse and Vegetative Child" glitch.  At least for a while, but then apparently they both completely dropped off the map.

I've also had my gloves disappear when I start smithing or even having sex, and at one point my clothes actually reverted back to their original colors from the ones I dyed them in when I started chopping wood.

Here's hoping Lionhead patches this crap up by the time the DLC pack comes out.  As fun as the game is, we're shocked that it got released in the state that it's in.

2500) The Tomb floor (The tomb just to the right when you enter Bloodstone from Wraithmarsh) is bugged, so  it's waaaay to high up!

Sorry if someone has already posted this one, but I lack the time and patience to read through 45 pages of text

The Archaelogist Bug

So, I received the final task. I went inside the archaeological place, destroyed the Shards and recovered the treasure. I was following this guide. The guide said: You can either give the stone to the archaelogist or kill her and keep it. So I decided to teleport to Bowerstone Marke and check it's value. I couldn't get back by teleporting so I had to get there on foot. When I got there, the archaeologist was still looking inside and wouldn't turn around nor talk to me. So I had to go back to the dashboard the do the whole thing again. But this time, when I hit A to give the stone the woman, nothing at all happens! I hit A until the circle around it fills and nothing happens! If I try to teleport I get the message: Can't teleport until scene is over or something like that, message that I was suppossed to get in the first place. If I kill her, I get +1000 renown endlessly until I leave the area. But even if I do this the quest will remain active and incomplete....

Any ideas?

My friend has a BIG one. Well you know that quest in Rookridge in the beginning of the story where you have to rescue that guys kid from Hobbe Cave. Well the part where your dog gets a quest alert and leads you to that side cave messed him up and the dog always has "Quest" above him and won't alert you about dig spots or treasure chests. Also when he barks it's at nothing and goes on for like ten real-time minutes.

another one I'm having is I can't buy anything from the Bowerstone Market produce stand even when I lower the tax to -60 and wait he doesn't sell anything. Only when I sell him stuff does he have anything.

Bezintine:

I found a woman carrying a chair.


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


I named her Chair Lady.

I just saw this for the first time in Bloodstone.  It was stuck to her left hand so when she gestured it swung around.  I ended up following her back to the bar and found one of the tables only had one chair under it now.

Apparently she had been seated at it, got up, went to push the chair back in and the trigger to let go of the chair must have misfired, leading it to be stuck on her hand permanently.

One potion makes you larger and one potion makes you small and the one Lionhead didn't give you doesn't do anything at all...

Sam:

If it wasn't for it being a major publisher and experienced developer, you wouldn't be getting a patch. The fact is we listen to our customers and the people in our community here who decide to talk about it, giving us a glimpse of what goes on. It's just as easy to shut this place down and not listen at all, but in our opinion that's bad. So we listen and we do what we can but I disagree with your notion that it is not a 'few'.

Sam is a representative of Lionhead.  Here is your answer.

I just had an odd one...
I accepted a guard's quest to save some slaves and when I held A
messages from my previous Crucible started popping up on the bottom of the screen.
Things like:

CRUCIBLE
ROUND ONE
PERFECT ROUND
CRUCIBLE
ROUND TWO
PERFECT ROUND
TRADER ROOM
ROUND THREE

It kept doing this for what seemed like forever...
Then by the time it told me about the Troll and my final results it began
saying the names of all the regions I'd been to.

WESTCLIFF
BOWERSTONE MARKET
BLOODSTONE
BRIGHTWOOD etc...

It did this until if finally caught up to me on Giles farm...

Every time I try to do the quest where my kid goes off into a guild cave and is captured by hobbes, after I get her out of the cave she just stands there facing a wall and there is no way for me to finish the quest. there is no trail, so i just end up reloading to before i went in, and after about 10 tries i gave up and after a few minutes my kid was killed.

"Man, I'm so high You're hallucinating ME"

Exact same problem on this end. Any solutions?

An odd glitch that now broke this character occurred. I got 8 perfect rounds in crucible. I already earned the chopper axe. And i noticed a chest in the same area. I opened it. I instantly teleported to westcliff. Everything worked fine. Except i was frozen in place. Could not move. I could workaround. It involves using the sex change exploit. I was able to move. But i was unable to:

Use the sword, I unsheathed it.

Use expressions

As well as other things. I hope they saw to this glitch and would fix it. For now, Time to start another game.

short sweet and to the point why in gods name would you sell a game with such dire bugs in it. On top of all that 45% or more of your population are having this stupid freezing problem wtf is that about. I cant start a new game i cant load my old save files. what i can do is play any other game i want with no problems. Dont get me wrong i love fable 2 to death (for the time i could play it) but wtf man seriusly. need to fix this crap its bs

Framerate issues
http://community.lionhead.com/forums/thread/3253116.aspx

Hi Everyone,
I have a problem with the Home Quest, which it seems is nearly the end of the game.  I go to "investigate the music" and when I come across the music box I need to press A to pick this up, but I am unable to do this.  I am now pretty much stuck...I cannot go back to a previously saved point in the game (which I see other people have also been complaining about) and I cannot travel to any other regions etc. 

If anybody has any suggestions, or has encountered the same glitch, please let me know.  I have invested a lot of time and effort in this game, and have really enjoyed playing it, it seems a shame to now not be able to finish it.

Thanks for your help.

Hmm... upon completing the game, I have found that , under Quests/Maps, Sales has been greyed out, with no sales or shortages coming up. Don't know if someone else mentioned this also.
