Wtf... guards playing tag with me?
   

I remember someone saying this happened to them once, but...

I walk into the alchemists building in Balmora and *WHAM*! Something whatcks me over the head real hard. So I'm like "WTF???!!!" I remember someone saying the guard smacked them once, but this sucker stands on the other side of the room near the stairs and has the "what??" look on him face. Playing all innocent with me. I coulnd't tell him anything cause I didn't see him smack me. So I'm like "'s cool. I'll git you sucka later!" So I go about my business. Leave the shop, hit the "razor something" smith shop. Everything's still cool. Then I just wanna do one last stop before finding a bed for the night to heal up (I got like 10hp left). So I walk into the Outfitter's across from the Mages guild and... *WHAM*! As I'm on my way to the floor for a perma-dirt nap, I see in the corner of my eye somebody backing off and sheating the sword. Guard I presume.

So, is this like a new joke with the guards? Playing tag as you walk into the shop? Anybody else had that happen to them?

I haven't had that happen (or the 'observers' either) but it sounds hilarious

Well, I'm having a similar problem.

There is one guard in Seyda Neen that wants me dead. I have no idea why, I can talk to all the other gaurds without a problem, but as soon as this fellow spots me, out/down comes his spear and he's on a warpath straight for me!

are you sure you didn't do anything to piss these guards off? i haven't had any of problems with security officials to date (i've had the game since its US release date). i would love to know what causes these events, or maybe it is a totally random act of violence? sounds like the MW guards have problems handling their own authority!

Well, the thing is I'm not being attacked by guards. Just one smack on the head and that's it.

What's worse, I don't think it's guards. The second store where I got killed, as it turns out, doesn't have a guard.

But as I entered it, post-humously, the merchant made some snide remark (like "I'm watching you" or some such thing--didn't sound too friendly). I don't have personality problems. Or bad rep. Or bounties on my head. New char, still level 1, with not much to her name (just plundered Pelagiad fortress for weapons).

I never had this happen before, but I did just d/l and enable a skin mod. So maybe that could be it... I'll look into it some more.

I don't think it's an attack
   

I'm fairly certain this is a bug in the game. I've noticed that often when I jump at a door I'm entering, and activate the door mid-air, I'll 'fall' to the other side real hard. I think the game engine believes you've fallen a great distance, so accordingly when you land it breaks your legs.

Yup, I think that's it. I tried jumping into a door, and sure enough, *SMACK* on the other side.
