anyway to stop them - once engaged with an enemy to un-engage ?

its frustrating the heck out of me - just saved "Red" from the Police station and first attempt see engaged some Super Mutants - and even though 2 vs 1 - she just kept going after them

2nd time - she "engaged" one of those flying bug things, and just started running off the complete opposite direction to our goal running after the bug

after about 15 mins of trying to catch up I managed to take out the bug with a long range rifle - and then Red "reset" - and finally she'd follow me again

is this just a bug in the game ? as its very annoying - seems that if they engage with anyone the only way for them to stop is if that thing they are engaging is taken out

crashes aside (every 4 mins in some case !!! :( ) its a great game - most I've played a single player game in a long while

cheers, Mark.
 
Easiest way is just to 'quick travel' to your intended destination. The characters that are following you should be there when you arrive.
 
ah good idea - cheers

got to look a thte crashing problem though - will follow some of the hints and tips around the net - but last night was crashing every 5 mins sometimes - especially indoors. Dropped my overclock in case it was that but made no difference.

annoys me that alt-tab doesn't work either

good job the game loads quick !! :)
 
You can always tell them to hold back in a safe area, then scout out ahead, killing the mobs yourself, then going back for them and having them follow.
 
thats a good idea - ta

love the targetting system - thought from looking at reviews I'd hate it - but it works really well - if a bit violent !
