Wes tek public

[Dwarf80]

have been noticing when wes tek farming on public server, when i first jump in solo i can hear kills before i start killing anything, dogs will be falling dead before i shoot them. Sometimes going into another room and mutants and dogs will already be killed. Ive noticed this for past week on public server. When im on private server i dont have this prob. Is this bleeding over from other servers some reason and im thinking when im keeping track of the xp/ total round in wes tek i will have less kills than when in private server. Ive hopped from public server to server and still have this prob.

I think someone just got there first.

Bleeding over from other servers? Come on.

well when you get in there and you can see mutants and dogs that just drop and die, you can hear a dog in another room holler and die, when i go in there its dead, wasnt me....and none of them has any loot.

The game is spawning the NPCs at your approach, who were probably killed by someone else 5 minutes ago. So it might look like they are 'dying' but they were already dead and will respawn shortly. Just an engine thing. Spawn NPC. Check status. Dead. Drop to the floor. Happens all the time. When you sweep through, someone else will come along and see the same thing a few minutes later.

Westek is an instanced interior. If you enter the same interior as your team leader you will see evidence of their kills. (If they are inside Westek). If you do not join the team leader (or are not the team leader) you will have your own personal Westek that nobody has ever touched. What you are seeing with the dead hounds is evidence of an old and dying server instance. Server hop and it should all be right.

ok...also server is slow sometimes for me objs loading in a piece at a time.

Only i can say is: West Tek is bugged as hell in many ways, this is going on for a long time. Even on a private instance you will see from time to time that when you enter WT and the you hear enemies dies.

Same as the very... VERY old bug when you enter the elevator, kill all the enemies and use the elevator again? The the whole place gonne glitch out and a massive amout of FPS drop.

I don't know why but WT was / is always bugged and have no clue why Bethesda never fix this. But hey it my persoanl thoughts ;)

It's just the Ghosts of so many that have been killed there. Millions and Millions have been killed by Vault Dwellers such as your self. Live with the pain and move on-it's just a game....

slight sidetrack...but West Tek related...anyone else see the walls/doors flicker in and out of existence when returning to the main building via the lift ?

Yup, thats why you never return using elevator from the basement, when you are there (previously you placed a camp near) and cleared the elevator exit, teleport to the camp and re-enter westek. (cleaning all the basement not worth it, to much time wasted)

Every time I bother to go inside instead of just grabbing my paint and pie I'm pleasantly surprised to rediscover it's existence. Like, "Oh right! Maybe I'll check that out again some time." Don't question my forgetting each time immediately afterwards. Green dudes to murk.

i usually just sneak out of elevator and go through next door then wait for everybody to finish their coffee break, then i toss the 5 mutts gathered at the elevator a nuka donut and teleport to my tent for a clean up.

its this. bethesda already got into hot water when they were actually guilty of this. they use to give used worlds to fallout 1st members going into private adventure mode. but i dont believe they do that anymore.

the instanced interiors can glitch and bleed data from other ones and as a side note so can daily ops its rare as ive only experianced it 3 or 4 times in over 3k hrs but ive seen dead mobs spawn in as they die sadly with no stuff on them while getting the full audio from the other instance during a daily op and yes its very trippy

Because fixing that would cause the entire game world to get sucked into fissure prime and never be seen again. Probably. Just a guess.
