Steel Canyon Defend the UNSF Base mission

[Eric]

I feel dumb but I'm stuck on this mission. It says I need a key to get through this set of double doors. I've looked EVERYWHERE I can think of. Any help would be appreciated.

Mission is Steel Canyon, Lauren Lockhart, Defend the UNSF Base (Save Lauren)

[_NOPE_]

Look for Lauren on the ground in a big room right before the door that you can't get through. Click on her, and prepare for your heart to break.

Thanks, I've looked all over for corpses that might have it or something but hopefully I just missed her.

The mission might be a bit buggy and sometimes she may not spawn.

If that's the case, make a support ticket.

[Eric]

Thanks. Nope, I've done the mission five or six times during the last two days, searched high and low and she's nowhere to be seen. Thanks for the info about the ticket thing, I just filled one out. Do you have any idea when I should start looking for a reply?

 

Thanks again.

Eric - for what's it worth, you can auto complete a mission every 3 days...If this one is sticking you, you might just want to go back to your Laura Lockheart and complete it.  Since it is the final mission in the arc, not sure if that will break any rewards (you obviously lose an additional experience from fighting the mobs in the mission, but sounds like you've already done that)...

After you get that mission, you can't "go back to her" if I recall correctly, she's yanked out of her spot in the game world, at least for you... and cell phone doesn't work anymore. For, reasons...

I ran it this weekend and had similar troubles. Not sure how random the mission is, but..

 

3 floors, you enter at top. Click on a computer to talk to her. On middle floor, there’s a room with a computer, some mobs, and lots of graphical clutter (debris, smoke, fire, bodies). If you click on the computer it says “you can’t complete that objective yet”. Laura is one of the bodies right in front of the computer. You click on her, then you click the computer, and that unlocks the doors.

 

She was hard to spot, no special quest tracking help at all.

 

Hope that helps.

Thanks everyone. The ticket thing did the trick. There was a little speaking box from two bad guys that said something like "get it over with and execute her" right were the body ended up being right before she did the text and stuff.  All the other times when I clicked on bodies (I THINK I clicked on them all?) nothing happened, no light blue box...nothing.

 

Again, thanks a lot for all the help and advice.

Just did this mission. She's annoying to find.

[Shadojak]

I too just did this and was convinced it was bugged. She is there, on the floor in front of a communication console. I believe this is on the floor above the locked door. I literally ran over every square inch of the place looking for the key. I noticed that the console was clickable, although it wouldn't let me interact with it. It was only then I noticed her on the ground near it. Once you interact with her, the console becomes usable and the door will be unlocked, I did not get the usual "You found a key" message though.

 

Good luck!

I'd had a similar issue with a different mission. I needed a key to get past the a door and fight the mission boss, only the glowie with the key was on the other side of the door. I'd had to reset the mission to fix it. More annoying, a couple days ago I had Keystone spawn on the wrong side of the door you need to defeat him to open. Once again, resetting the mission solved the problem. But it was annoying.

I got stuck on this exact mission, and couldn't skip it or drop it, but I figured out a way to get it off my mission list: I changed my alignment to rogue using Null the Gull in pocket D, and that got the mission off my list because it's hero-only.

[Miss Midnight]

I had the same issue, killed everyone in mission but could not find her, had to reset mission then she spawned by the computer terminal where she was supposed to be.
