Crow invisible in Unterground Neutropolis

[Polestar]

Hi everyone, I talked to GM Globetrotter, he resolved the issue by completing the missions for me and asked me to file a bug report. So here I am.

 

I am leveling a Praetorian Character. She is level 18 at the moment so not outleveling the contacts in Neutropolis. She is Resistance alligned.

On to the Problem:

I had Calvin Scott (https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Calvin_Scott_(Praetorian)) as well as Helix (https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Helix) as my contacts, doing missions for both of them.

At one point bot those contacts want you to talk to Crow (https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Crow) in Underground Neutropolis as can be seen here:

https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Helix#Talk_to_Crow

 

When I got down into the tunnels, Crow was not at the red marker and thus I could not meet him nor talk to him.

I hope this helps resolving the bug.

Had you met Crow in a previous instanced mission? There are apparently multiple ways to get him removed as a contact you can walk up to and talk to, all of which seem to revolve around him being defeated in a mission.

I believe he was in an instanced mission with me before.

Interestingly after the mission from Helix had been completed by the GM, Crow turned up in the next instanced mission again, but he is still missing from the Resistance Base in Underground Neutropolis.

Did he die in that mission? Then that would explain why he is not available in Underground Neutropolis. Gold side has some complications players need to be aware of. They can remove contacts from being available depending on what they do. Even if someone else introduces the character to the contact after.

If you run Calvin Scott's story arc before running Crow's, well Crow is cannonically dead and no longer an option at that point.  The only way to get him back is to go through Ouroboros, which you won't be able to do until you exit Praetoria proper.

 

The real bug here is that you shouldn't be able to run Calvin Scott's story arc immediately upon reaching Neutropolis, he's supposed to be third after Crow and Dr. Helix.  Running Scott's arc early causes script breaking issues.

Delilah got to him early, Rusty.
