kenpled 10 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) UPDATE 2 : The bug has been fixed, thanks miss and mister devs ! UPDATE : Apparently the game doesn't go in full "I want to die and rape your ears at the same time" mode anymore (since last hotfix), but the mission is still blocked and doesn't finish after you kill Protea's last health bar. So today I finally started doing "the deadlock protocol" quest. No issue for most of it. Until the "defeat protea" part. At first it goes with no problem, I can charge the Xoris on the specters, deplete her health and force her to regen with less health by discharging the Xoris when her health turns grey. The bug starts when I complete that with her 4th (last) health bar (from what I've seen in videos, the part where she burns and dies) : 1 - The sound of my game goes crazy (think the kind of horrible and loud sound when your PC freezes) 2 - my fps plumet fast 3 - Protea gets in a blue "bubble shield thingy" 4 - There is no end to it, I can either close the game / abort the mission, or I stay there staring at less and less FPS with my computer on the verge of dying Here is the video of it happening BE CAREFUL THE SOUND GOES REALLY LOUD WHEN THE BUG STARTS HAPPENING For the record, I have a pretty nice computer (i7 4Ghz CPU, 2060 SUPER GPU), and this kind of occurence is definitely not something usual.

Salvorius 0 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) yes, exectly the same. I did it more then once and it happend every time. from some reason, dischaging the Xoris decrese for short period the sound. Now (22/11/20) i tried that mission again, and still i can't finish the mission. now it's some kind of loop when i finish the mission and after every few second to the same position i was when i completed the objective (though the game doesn't show it) Edited November 22, 2020 by Salvorius Link to post Share on other sites

Rabbio 9 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 As a workaround, I stuck around for a minute or so before disabling GPU particles in options. That helped a bit with the FPS lag, though it didn't fix it completely. Maybe disabling more options would have improved it more. Eventually I died to the spectres, since I still couldn't move or do much of anything but they could attack me fine. Dying triggered the ending to the hellacious freeze and continued the quest. I feel like I have to apologize to my poor CPU and GPU for sticking that out. This bug was definitely not making my computer happy. Link to post Share on other sites

xYukarIA 0 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Same problem here, I was so scared that it was actually my graphics problem lol Link to post Share on other sites
kenpled 10 Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Funny thing is that at first I thought it was part of the quest. Something like Interrupting Protea going back in time for the last time makes her wreck the current timeline. Nope, just a plain old bug 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ExpMZombie 0 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Note : Footage not mine but the exact same thing happens to me, i usually have way more fps on max settings. i tried everything, i lowered the settings the the minimum but nothing happens plz fix.

kobekerk 0 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 In the latest hotfix of today is mentioned that the bug should be fixed. Now, the screen doesn't completely freeze, but i can't seem to be teleported back to the ship. Protea's health bar is empty, but her shield is completely full. There is no way to get the shield down to actually kill Protea... Link to post Share on other sites

PS: After leveling my Xoris I'm unable to throw it with heavy attack. I have to charge it with E and discharge it with heavy attack. Please mark this mission as complete as it's no fun at all.

Same here, was trying it earlier and the fps drop bug happened, took a break, came back to a patch, and now at the end of the fight she just keeps rewinding time and I won't get extracted. Also, I think the voice line for extraction is playing early? The lotus says something but I'm too busy jumping around trying not to die to listen. Link to post Share on other sites

FizzyPants 0 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Same thing happening to me tried like 5 or 6 time after the new short fix today, the fps drop problem gone but when protea die it don't teleport me back to the ship Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RainbowUnicornSlasher 0 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Same happening to me. I go through the fight with relative ease, but when she's supposed to die she's in her blue bubble, with full shield but no health, and keeps shifting me back to the same position. Tried it several times, always stuck like that. I'm really on edge rn Link to post Share on other sites

BOOOOOM" timeline reset shenanigans... Link to post Share on other sites
JACOBPPARRY 0 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Yeah same bug here tried a few different times today and she can’t be defeated after destroying her final health bar her shield will return with zero health and your left being attacked by a practically invisible enemy immune to damage. Pls fix this bug soon. Link to post Share on other sites

On 'killing' her, instead of in the OP vid where it all goes wild, for me she dies, charges up to explode, then time reverses back to when I killed her, and while her body is gone, the charge up effect still happens, then she explodes and time reverses back... repeat. But it's all running fine, not like OP where the FX effect FPS... it's just stuck in a time loop like Dormammu when Dr. strange used the Eye of Agamotto on him. Link to post Share on other sites
