abaris Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 There's an issue I ran in after the second castle mission. The one where you explore the old arsenal and build artillery. On returning to Sanctuary, where I had Preston parked, he did react to me fulfilling the mission, but no dialogue options were available. Neither could I trade, nor recruit him as a follower ever since. Now I'm not sure, if this is simply a bug or if he can actually be taken over by a Synth and this is the symptom. Anyone had this?

Lessabos Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Nah he just normally behave like buggy 2nd generation synth, I wish it would be possible to execute or at least expell unwanted companions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisnpuppy Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Was he like sitting somewhere? I came across something about this in the castle missions as I was looking for something else and I maybe can find it again. I thought I read about him sitting down and not saying anything...

Vagrant0 Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 There seems to be a bug related to him where he will remain an NPC instead of a follower, and can no longer be interacted with or moved around. I think this is related to either not using him as a companion prior to the first fort independence mission, or by keeping him at sanctuary. All I know is that I avoided it somehow by setting him to a guard position in sanctuary, unlocking his follower ability before doing independence, and moving him (and sturges) to the fort as soon as it was unlocked.

abaris Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share Posted November 29, 2015 Yes, the castle seems to bug out on Preston. I can only report my success to him. I can't recruit him, not that I wanted to, since he's one of the most boring characters in my book, and I can't equip him with new stuff. Tried it with a different player, still the same result.
