saw some guy hobble on by running on top of a horse, his character was also blacked out so probably not loaded the mounted graphic yet. Was pretty weird.

This is happening everywhere. I play in the PC NA Server, but if you're experiencing it on PS4, definitely must be a graphic engine issue.
At first it happened to me in Wrothgar, but now I see it in every major zone I visit.

Two things from tonight's trip into Cyrodiil:

1.
The fact that this little wall doesn't line up is bugging me way more than it should:

Image
I kept staring at it whenever DC came to farm us there.


2.
I was swarmed by DC reinforcements while retaking Chal. When somebody from Pact Militia resurrected me, I got stuck with 0 health:
Hidden:
Image
Definitely not the nicest effect ever, especially when you're stuck with it for a few minutes. At least it disappeared when my food bonus wore of... At which point I was killed again, by a DC player lurking within Chal. He might have been slightly bitter at the fact that I had managed to kill him earlier... My third revenge kill.

More random silliness...

While doing Wrothgar world boss runs, I ported to a wayshrine near the coast for Poachers. Some of them -and I don't know why- seem to like spawning people in the air. Well, I appeared on the ground that time, but the person on top of me wasn't.

As a result, my head is in a very questionable position. Awkward.


There's a bug with the mail system that makes mails show up with the time received being a very long time ago.
Hidden:
Image
A very long time ago... I get this a lot with hirelings, but that's the first time I've had it happen with one of the Rewards for the Worthy mails. Evidently, I've been serving the Pact for the past 138 years. I must be older than I think I am. Maybe that explains the grey hairs?

Fun from the Thieves Guild launch...

This guy got stuck in the whistle pose on his horse:
Hidden:
Image
And, after spending hours completing my exploration of Hew's Bane, I finally returned to Wrothgar to do my boss daily. I found a pinkpocalypse.
Hidden:
Image
It started small...

Image
And got worse.

Image
And worse.

Image
Gods, it was ugly.
It reset after I traveled to a different zone and returned. I was using the new 64bit client when the pinkpocalypse occured, and so far, it has not happened again. Other people have been reporting NPCs that are naked with the 64bit client, but fully clothed on the old 32bit client.

I've also been having audio issues on the 64bit client that aren't present with the old one. No idea why, but it doesn't matter too much. I've played with worse.

Well, I've been having similar issues with the 64bit client. Overall, is works fine and hasn't crashed since patch.

But it seems to have a few glitches with heads...

Some of these people on the official forums have had some pretty epic pinkpocalypses. I like the comment that somebody in EP Wrothgar made, stating that the 64bit client was actually a cosmetic update to make the entire game world bright pink. It seems to be fairly effective at doing that.

Unfortunately, I've had the crashing and sound glitches that other people have reported, so the 64bit client might as well be useless at the moment.
The old client isn't much better, since the game performance has dropped considerably (enough to be mentioned in the patch notes). Going to suck if they don't fix that soon.

I'm just going to start calling this "Adventures in Pink:"
Hidden:
Image
It affects the character selection screen, too. All my DC characters were like that.

Image
And the Daedra. Nothing worse than pink spiders. Also, I don't have a problem with Dolmens being up when I arrive... It's just if people happen to finish them before I get there. Then I have to wait for it to spawn again.

Image
Frost Atronachs, too. Except I'm not exactly sure what's actually pink on it.

Image
And then Daedroth.
I also saw one merchant NPC wandering around with no pants or underwear, but the pants reappeared before I could get a screenshot.

The 64bit client is amazingly broken. It's hilarious and awful at the same time.

Edit:
I'm starting to see the disappearing head thing...
Hidden:
Image
I was messing around in character creation, considering an Altmer sorc I might make when we get more character slots, when the face I was trying to create started disappearing. It would only happen on the soft-angular side.

Image
And it happened to this NPC in Riften once I actually logged back into the game with my main.

Edit:
Continuing on with the "Adventures in Pink," today come with a bonus... A video!
But first... The screenshots. I'm going to start linking directly to the image because I've got a lot in this post already.
The spiders were all pink for Nyz. I was a little disappointed that the boss itself wasn't pink.
Pink tapestries and a pink lute... Oh, joy.
Ye Gods. What happened to Chal? And Cyrodiil?!
Oh, boy. This is a bit much.

And the video...

YouTube Link
It's actually much harder to navigate Cyrodiil when the land is pink.

I've gone back to using the 64bit client (for basically no reason at all) and, while I haven't had as many issues with it as when it was first released, it still has the occasional issue. I don't actually know if the buggy client was behind this, but...

It was the Vanishing of Spindleclutch. I popped into the dungeon to have a look at the map to check where the lore book was positioned, and, evidently, it decided to take a vacation. The quest markers became pink squares with black x's in them, and most of the dungeon itself was gone. The only things that existed were the NPCs, the ground they stood on, and the heavy sacks/chests scattered throughout the dungeon.


YouTube Link

I wandered from the beginning of the dungeon, to as close to the end as I could get. As long as I remained where the walls were supposed to be, I could avoid aggroing the mobs and bosses.

Faunter joined me in Spindleclutch, but he stayed in the normal realm, while I remained in my glitched version. Must've been strange seeing me passing casually through the walls like they weren't even there (and they weren't, on my side of things).

I managed to get one screenshot from when I first got in there, and I did attempt to take a second from the top of the dungeon, but the second one never went through, apparently. That was the one shot that I wanted to get. I guess the first one will have to do.

I've done vet Darkshade several times now, and on one run today, an NPC decided to attach herself to me. Queue shenanigans.

I don't know why that was so damn funny, but it was.

This week I was in a nCoH2 pug fighting the Chamber Guardian. Not an especially challenging boss ...

... unless half of your team is pushed through the walls, and the other half is dead. My main, Lifts-Her-Leg,
was tanking, and she had been pushed outside, no longer able to see the room.

However, her summoned clannfear was still in there, doing around 400 dps against a boss who, because
the room was empty of players, was apparently just standing at parade rest. About 15 minutes later we
had our glorious victory, all thanks to a "combat pet."

In some ways this was the easiest boss fight ever, and a source of much amusement to our pug members.

As a side note, I don't recall being pushed through a wall in three years of playing TESO, and in the past
week this has happened three times.

Had an interesting bug where my costume would turn off when swapping to my second weapon. It was pretty cool, but stopped when I changed zones.

I had a strange graphical glitch a few days ago. Namely, my character's jaw was skewed to one side (see picture). It looked even worse from the 3rd person view outside the menus. As I saw this when checking the inventory right after a fight, it amused me to think that her jaw had been dislocated and that she was just that tough to be go on fighting like nothing happened. The bug persisted for maybe half an hour, then went away as mysteriously as it came.

I game across my first glitch since the beta sessions today. The game seemed to think I was a werewolf and wouldn't let me participate in some activities because, well, I guess werewolves can't fish and stuff :S
