I mentioned in my Fallout 4 review that there were a few bugs and glitches. There always is in any large and complex open world game, but from my 70 odd hours playing I only had a few and nothing terrible - a companion stuck on the floor, a brahmin in a house, that sort of thing. But now the it's out in the wild there are lot of people playing a lot of game, so obviously there's going to be a ton of stuff going wrong.
In year's to come, 'Dogmeat swimming in midair' will be seen as the Mona Lisa of Fallout 4 glitches. It's funny, not too serious and come on - it's the dog.
Less heart warming is the 'Oh God make it stop' body twisting that seems to happen in a lot of games.
One reoccurring theme seems to be companions stuck in weird poses. I had Nick (the Synth in the hat) lie on the floor for an entire mission. He'd get up to move around but immediately collapse on stopping. He was probably tired. This guy though? Bit of a Michael Jackson thing going on.
Piper, on the other hand, has just given up but everyone's too polite to say anything.
And, case you were wondering what happens if five Raider suddenly spawn in a tiny cupboard with an angry man and a laser rifle, here's your answer:
Less of a bug there and more of the game just not understanding cupboards. And, to finish off a weird flying glitch. I think this is the player picking up and dropping the object he's standing on so it rises. I'm not sure but I'll be trying it later.
