ataribaby 54 Posted September 26, 2009 Shaftoe died again, even after total reinstall + 1.04 and restart whole campaing. Just loaded saved game on manhattan, heard his scream and he is dead next to table with laptop. I giving up on this game. I paid 999 CZK for original game that i cant play properly cos after his death mission not procceed. Maybe i can provide save game if some developer directed me how and what to deliver. I never got that frustration from trying finish campaing in legaly bought game. I am suspicious it is bugged FADE. Now i know i bought this game just to support czech devs cos i am czech.

jeffroland 10 Posted September 28, 2009 Amazing that they couldn't fix this in 1.04. BIS knew this was a big problem and yet it persists. How f**king hard is it to make Shaftoe invincible??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Captain 0 Posted September 28, 2009 I think most saved games won't work properly after a patch, especially if the missions themselves were modified. You'll need to restart the mission. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bulldogs 10 Posted September 28, 2009 Maybe post in on Dev tracker. I've seen it reported by 3 other people so it's obviously not easy to replicate, but those that do have it get it every time they do the mission, so I'm not sure what it could be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arma-2-Guru 55 Posted September 28, 2009 Is Manhattan the last mission, because that's not even that far into it, I got up to it very quick, this is balls if it is :| Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bulldogs 10 Posted September 28, 2009 Nope, lots of missions after that. As I mentioned, I'm not sure what's causing it but I find it very odd that it only effects a few people but those people that it effects have it every time they try the mission/campaign. This makes it very hard to replicate but if you can PM a mod about it maybe they can tell you where to upload a save to test it out for themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It happened to me the first time I played Manhattan. I reverted Manhattan and it did not happen a second time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'll need to restart the mission. :/ Thats is correct as I couldn't finish Dogs of War without restarting after the 1.04 patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cuzer 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Just to add to this I started a new game with 1.04 and I've had Shaftoe die in Manhattan, had to do the endmission command to move ahead in the campaign Course of events if it helps UAV was destroyed, Transport Chopper was also destroyed and I think the Chdkz base leader was killed when Artillery bombed the site as when I rolled up I found him but he was dead, no dialogue about letting him live etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
draeath 10 Posted October 1, 2009 Skip the mission. Hold shift, tap the minus key on your numberpad, then blind-type ENDMISSION. That way, you don't lose out on the whole game, because of this one buggy mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That way, you don't lose out on the whole game, because of this one buggy mission. Hehe, sure. I just liked feel of campaing and liked freeform of Manhattan mission so i want play it and proceed properly. Well i calmed down now. Its just game.... buggy one :) I shelved it for now and i will return after some new patches (if any). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sniperdoc 0 Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) I actually restarted the mission from the beginning and did not have that bug again. That's after the 1.04 patch. Previously, if I killed the Chedaki base commander, it'd kill Shaftoe. This was with the Chedaki base being at the Dam. On my umpteenth retry of the mission, this time the Chedaki base was near the area where you drop the girl off at the Helo drop point. That time, when I killed the base commander, it did NOT kill Shaftoe. Maybe narrow down the when and where's...? Edited October 6, 2009 by Sniperdoc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cuzer 0 Posted October 7, 2009 Shaftoe died for me when the base was near where you drop the girl so I don't think that's the course of evnts Sniperdoc that triggers it Cuzer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
