On Vanilla PS4, post main quest, playing patch 1.5.
I’m just trotting around, exploring, looting bandits and making bank to re-build Pribyslavitz.
Twice now when I go to Rattay to sell loot, a guard runs up demanding to search me.
L1 won’t work on the controller to surrender (it does elsewhere), so I have to remount and get the hell out of there.
Nothing on me or my horse is marked stolen.
My rep in Rattay is excellent, 100 w/ the guards.
Anyone else experience anything similar?

Are you pressing L1+X? That’s what it prompts me to do whenever I surrender. I had the same problem with the guards always wanting to search me and I had an excellent reputation as well, but after doing a few quests it seemed to stop.
I’m thought I was, but I’ll check.
With over 1200 hours in, it’s been a long time since I had to surrender.
Thanks!
They do random checks.

They like to search me at night when I run around without a torch and the dark clothes probably don’t help. I haven’t been searched during the day for quite some time.
XBox One:
Yes, I was just doing some exploring in Rattay and it was getting dark. I entered the guard tower and a guard challenged me I suppose now because I did not equip my torch.
You would think the guards would recognize Henry by now, but NO !
Tried to surrender, and my hands went up, but guard attacked me.
I ran down the stairs and out into the courtyard and was attacked again.
Ended up with and injured hand, but it only bothers me in rainy weather.
Surrendering in Rattay may be a problem.
Rules are rules, they should still apply to Henry.

Yeah I get searched a lot in rattay but only by 1 guard and only in raining weather. Rules are rules and normally you can avoid the search if your skills are high enough and talk your way out of it. Still annoying as hell and it’s got me thinking about a assain creed style killing of the guard when no one’s looking, but somehow even if I’m not seen by anyone they will no I did it and ruin my 100 rep…and that’s something I don’t understand…say I did kill the guard. No one sees no one around, how can they pin that on me? Like it’s not like I have previous in it as I have 100 rep so been a very good boy but for some reason they would find the body and go yep that’s got to be Henry. He’s never done anything wrong in rattay in his life but this has all the signs it was him…
I’m not worried about being searched, since I rarely have any stolen goods on me, and I normally transfer them to Pebbles.
What bothered me was being attacked “after” I surrendered and having the guard draw blood lowing my health.
I realize random searches are necessary, otherwise Henry could steal and carry as much stolen goods as he wanted, which goes against Christian and WHS developer’s ethics.
I also am disappointed when Henry loots a body and none of the items appear stolen, as was the case when I looted the bodies of the dead carrying the counterfeit coins.
I entered Rattay and was searched and the guards found stolen goods, which were not listed as stolen in my inventory. I paid the fine, but I feel the game set an unseen trap for poor Henry.
i guess not everything can be proved it belongs to someone else. they didnt do fingerprint checks in them days.
Same here - hands go up, no opportunity to talk my way out of anything. Guards just start beating on me - high-tailed it out of there on my horse…
Come back to Rattay later, same day, gate guards - “Hey, Henry’s come to see us”. Park Pebbles in the square to do some trade, come out of the Armorer, and a guard runs up - “I have to search you!”. Same-same.

Press the surrender buttons a few times in a row quickly. I have to do the same to surrender, sometimes it’ll work first time and sometimes I gotta press surrender six times, but if I spam it enough Henry will surrender, hope the same works for you
