Anders

When trying to free Anders from the cross he just stays tied to it, is there a fix to this?

You have to be doing some quests for the Great Khans for the option to come up. If you are at the stage where you find evidence for the Khans to un-ally wih the legion and he still isn't coming down it sounds like a bug.

I'm doing the quest Aba daba hooneymoon the current task is to free him, i did it before he came down fine, but this playthrough he just stays there, even if i load earlier saves same thing happens just stays there and he has dialog as if hes free when i talk to him again.

From the wiki about bugs on Anders:

The game will not give the player an option to untie Anders in Cottonwood Cove. This can happen if the player had contact with Anders before the quest Oh My Papa, but can also happen if the player hadn't. There is no known workaround for console players. An alternative is to approach Jack instead of Diane for the speech check in 'Oh My Papa'. That way, Anders can be freed in 'Aba Daba Honeymoon' instead. Sometimes using a KO weapon (boxing tape, etc.)can be used to knock Anders off the cross without killing him. [verified]

PC users can open the console, click Anders, and type addtopic AndersFree, then re-initiate dialogue with him.

Also,

If you kill Motor-Runner before completing the quest Aba Daba Honeymoon you can not receive the quest to free him. However, for some reason, when you have completed Oh My Papa you can just talk to him and free him. [verified]
