This was thoroughly amusing to me. I've never played Oblivion, but it would be strange to see that in real life.

I haven't encountered that bug, but I HAVE encountered the eternally locked door at the Imperial City. One of the shops has its door locked, even in daylight, and should you try to open it you'll get a bounty on your head.

Well, I have encountered the missing terrain several times, but not the locked door bug. Guess I don't shop in Oblivion much because vendors don't sell anything but shit.

It was a magic shop, so while I didn't HAVE to shop there, I just wanted the magic. I think it was the one with the 30 second invisibility spell.

you ever consider what we call bugs could be what the programmers call planned hilarity. As a former programmer i to played these sorts of pranks on a quake 2 game mod that i made a map for. the prank involved death traps. you have 5 doors all lead to nothing but they don't know that. 1 out of every 3 doors is programmed with a trigger code. there are two safe doors for fun sake. but if you pick the wrong door a trap door opens under you large enough to prevent you from just jumping and living. then a chunk of what i called ye olde virtual humor drops from a pitch black void and falls on you and then viola your dead. but what makes it a pain in the ass is know what 1 of the 5 doors is the trigger. simple i put a graphics glitch on the door with the trigger code. it looks like a uvmap stitch error so you see a faint textural edge that doesn't meet up. hehehhehehhehheh when the map was released i got messages from up to like 432 players screaming at me "WHAT THE HELL IS BEHIND THOSE DOORS!!!!" I tell them "Simple. NOTHING!! NOTHING BUT A HOT FRESH STEAMY LAUGH!"

I've had the blade of my sword disappear, I tried to kill something, but with the blade gone, it went through the swinging motion, but no damage

that happened to me on Minecraft recently ... a large , VERY large section of the terrain looked as if cut out ,, I could see al the way to Lava because of it

Rather common; it's called a "chunk error". It's way more common in multiplayer, but it does happen in single player.

And you can see all the way to the Void below bedrock because the entire chunk fails to render, and instead the surrounding chunks render as if it were not there. This can actually be quite useful if you spot an ore deposit, mark on the surface where it is, and tunnel down to it (safely, of course, in case you forgot about a cavern or lava flow somewhere along the line. XD)

Well I saw Squid swiming in the void .. I threw a Block of dirt into it & it landed like something was there .. so .. I took a step into it ... Fell into a black hole of stars .. then Died from Drowning ... & when I respawned I was in the middle of an ocean

Ooh, that wasn't a chunk error, that was just an area not rendering yet. Chunk error is where it fails to load entirely, and the game acts like there's nothing there and doesn't allow you to enter it (at least on multiplayer; I haven't yet had it happen in single player). Rendering is where the area is perfectly well there, but you just can't SEE it. If you start to drown when that happens, hold jump so you'll hopefully just bob on the surface until it finishes loading.

No I Fell like it wasn't tthere & started to Drown unable to move

Seriously, vanishing bridges sucked. I only know of one bug that infuriates me more.

And that is?

Seriously, vanishing bridges sucked. I only know of one bug that infuriates me more.

lol i plan to begin playing Crysis sooo i expect i'll come across shit tons of errors like this.

I can say but one thing... Lolderp!

Haha. Is it just me, or are games releasing with a ton of bugs these days?

Come in the water, it's safe. Really! ^'===='^

I may as well do that.

It's always wonderful when you're just walking along and end up falling off the half a floating bridge. =P

Well, this one has always been visible from a mile away.

I've had that happen before too, where it looks off, but the closer you get, you realize it's a full on glitch with the environment. Jumping down the forever hole won't quite fix it, either. =P

Actually, it will. Jumping into the water and swimming under the remaining terrain would transport you right on top of it, where you want to be.

I actually was crossing a bridge in the realm of an oblivion gate and fell straight through it needless to say I died

I've accidentally made my own bugs modding Oblivion. . . .

When I saw this, I suspected it was about a Bethesda game.

So that bridge was like d'Avignon bridge? It didn't even cross the river completely? Damned Oblivion bugs, how many times I lost time because of them! Really artwork though!
