All platforms

 * For an unknown reason Paulson, Elliot Tercorien and Somah may become unarmed, but still have their weapons equiped, causing them to be standing in an unarmed stance, but their weapons floating beside their right hands.

PC

 * When you get abducted and the first cut scene is finishing, the aliens may freeze and you may get stuck, unable to move or progress and the game hangs up, making you unable to complete the add-on.
 * There may be a way to fix this. If you happen to be running a mod called "Purge Cell Buffers", then that may be what was causing this bug. Try disabling PCB for the duration of Mothership Zeta and you should be able to get past this cutscene.


 * When receiving the objective to disable the Death Ray, if you go into the armory and grab the Destabilizer and test it on the Brahmin you strangely complete the quest and it tells you to go to the bridge.

Xbox 360

 * When attacking an enemy in V.A.T.S. mode, your screen may stay in a slow motion fase as if still attacking an enemy. While your enemy still continues to fire, your screen will still be active allowing you to pause and return to a previous save.


 * If your cursor goes over her she automatically speaks to you, which can be annoying.


 * When destroying the generators, if the player enters the Engine Room, and kills all the enemies there, before destroying the last generator, the game will not register the deaths of the aliens, and red cursors will appear, and footsteps can be heard, the player will also be attacked even though the alien corpses are clearly visible. The only way to fix this is by going around and shooting all the corpses of the already dead aliens.


 * If you attack Toshiro Kago and he becomes hostile, Elliot may run away and disappear from the game.


 * Paladin Hoss (with a Flamer and 10mm pistol) and Initiate Pek (unarmed) may appear out of nowhere in Motership Zeta. This is part of the Lost Initiate quest bug. Loading an older save doesn't seem to fix this.


 * If you have not yet completed Who Dares Wins, upon entering Mothership Zeta, the game may alert you that you've discovered the presidential metro location. The "Who Dares, Wins" quest now has "enter presidential metro" marked as completed.
 * After you finish your space walk, Elliot's forehead is see-through
