profit-taker phase-1 gets bugged at different stages

[yilmazdurmaz]

A day has passed, yet there is no solution about this. Phase-1 gets bugged in all different stages. read and see at least how many times I tried and failed the phase-1

* Found the Quill, no further dialogs came out.

* after 10s of fishing on these parts, I tried leaving the squad, all 3 parts of the stage came one after another to let me go stage-2 only to be bugged again

* Fishing started, passed 1/3, but cant do 2/3 even after 10s of fishing.

* cant make it 3/3 even after 10s of fishing.

* for a few times , we got lucky to make 3/3, but UI stuck on stage-1

* get to stage-2, UI bugged, not showing any countdown timer.

* defended successfully, but did not get to extermination part of the stage.

* once I left the squad as they headed to exit, extermination begun after host switch only to be bugged at the end, no stage-3.

* got to the extermination, but either no enemy was around or it just didn't advance to stage-3 after exterminating required enemy number.

* once got 26/12 after extermination. yes you read right, 26 enemy out of 12. and no there was no that many enemy. some spiders were stuck on top of hill or corners of buildings.

these are the ones I remember. I lost the count of bugged sessions. one of them was not even a bug, but the host left the session during my load on the elevator and lost the connection. 

edit: I don't even know what bugs are there in stage-3 since I have never got to there.

phase 1 part 1 and 2 seems to get bugged often with being unable to collect parts from fish or npc that supposed to drop data mass is missing or doesnt spawn. 

[ReedReith]

Out of the 10 times I have now attempted to do the first bounty, I go 2 fully working.

1. No datamass
2. Full mission done
3. No datamass
4. No enemies during the base capture sequence
5. Stuck at "Fishing for clues"
6. Full mission done
7. Stuck at "Fishing for clues"
8. Stuck at "Fishing for clues"
9. Stuck at "Fishing for clues"
10. Stuck at "Fishing for clues"

Was there no playtesting, or was the playtesting done differently than players usually have at these missions? Are players supposed to take more time instead of rushing to the cave? Players are teabagging the corpse before we even ever get to inspect it. 

[EinheriarJudith]

they could fix the data mass part by making it a console hack instead. as for the fish well.... they just need to fix whats broken.

[yilmazdurmaz]

I have a new one (for me)

* fishing bugged to start, left the squad and all parts of stage-1 completed all at once, went to stage-2, no enemy around to drop datamass

[FrigidMesa]

the data mass npc seems to be just not spawning now 5 times in a row no npc spawn please just make it a hack or fix the npc spawn plz.

[Yetiquatch]

3 for 3 no datamass spawning... Why is there even a datamass??? Just make it a hack console...

[N64Gamefreak]

Just had a datamass fail to appear in my squad, as well.

[yilmazdurmaz]

still no fix on the stage to go smooth.

[PrawiSucia]

tried this profit taker. Phase-1... no datamass. This is game breaking to me.. sigh

[Valiant55]

No datamass 5 times in a row now on Phase 1

[AvPCelticPredator]

Is new DE feature guys, is nothing weird! 😍

[sovietdemon]

i have run this stupid mission 8 times and not once that data mass dropped. The worst is that i cant skip the damn dialogue as i tried to restart the mission.

[(PSN)Syntactycal]

This bug made it into the ps4 build... no datamass!!!!!!!

[Chaos.Blades]

If enemies do not warp in within the first 5-10 seconds of the 2nd stage then the datamass will not drop. The datamass is carried by one of those enemies.

For the fishing part are you finishing in the body of water the Quill died in front of? I have ran this mission probably almost 100 times now (farming rare mods) and never had an issue with finishing for clues.

Been another frustrating day trying to scrape together a mere five Vega Toroids.

Tried spelunking, only finding Calda Toroids.

Plz halp, DE.

[Nemah]

Having the same problem here, I need more Vega Toroid and would love to run this mission over and over for it, but it's so frustrating getting a working phase 1, had a bunch of failed lobbies in a row, which isn't even that uncommon, the most common bug I find is the lack of a datamass,  please hotfix as soon as possible

DE Please! I've experienced all these issues as other users. This has been going on for a while now. I've been wanting to report this bug for a while now but only learned how to report a bug recently. 

 

[ldegroodt115]

Bump. Getting sick of having to abort the mission 2/3 of the time.

[Morkislair]

I also got to the point where I can't do the Exploiter's forst mission because systematically, ennemies don't spawn in the "take the base" phase, and thus, no datamass.

[TotalEnigma85]

+1 plz fix

At stage 2/3 (capture base) if the NPC with beacon wont spawn then there is a way for 3 of players to finish it still , the host has to leave the mission and game will go to host migration that will force to reload missing things on map including the NPC

We should get a vote option to allows us to make a mission check assets , just like with host migration , this way we could skip some simple bugs and allow missions to go

[Rallarman]

stage 2/3 is bugged like 80-90% of the time. Seriously get you lazy asses around and fix this bug.

Its not like its new, been like this since it open. My patient is running out.
