Secondary mission impossible to achieve

[NazakaSyndrome]

I'm in the third zone, and that makes two side missions that I can't complete.
At the moment I have the mission that requires 120L of Moonshine with 85% quality.
I bring some of a higher quality, no validation.
I bring 86%, same thing.

If you really need to have EXACTLY 85% quality, you'll have to either make it possible to dilute/fortify even more precisely.
Or make these missions not with an exact score to reach but at least a range to make it less tedious

[Agent Orange Soda]

That's a bit brutal. I had a secondary mission early in the second level to bring 95% quality shine, but that early in the game your tech pool is garbage and your workers are largely inexperienced and impossible to create such high quality hooch.

The very same side missions may pop up in later chapters or even a second time, don't worry too much if you fail them. You can easily get through the game without solving all the side missions. During chapter 3 I was offered only 2 and failed both, still finished the chapter.
I think the last patch changed the percentage values from exact to a range both for quality and alcohol percentage. I just had two side missions in the last chapter and both had ranges. One was a moonshine with an alcohol range of 70-80%, I didn't manage that one in time.

Not only this. I do deliver 100L of 80% quality moonshine to a Wild Woman in the Swamp Chapter. She doesn't accept it. Why ? Who knows. Game doesn't give you much to go on except a blunt statement : "The quest failed". Now I did deliver it two separate bottles 94L+6L. Are the devs gonna reveal the secret mechanic behind side quest ?
To summarise the logic here:
80% quality moonshine - check
100L - check
quest - failed

Oh, come on man ! Don't worry too much ? This is just a bad approach. When I do something bad, fine I don't get the treat. But please don't punish the player when he did everything right.

Yeah, well I am not saying it's working properly, and it surely needs fixing, but it's not game breaking either.

[Molotov Zav]

This quest definitely needs to be fixed. Who cares if it isn't game breaking. It ruins the enjoyment for some of us when a quest can't be completed and we don't know why. I tried everything and could not complete the side-quest. That's just not fun and a waste of time.

[RstBf]

i had the same issue with this quest does not matter if it was 80% quality or better i gave 100L of moonshine at 80,90 and 93% (all separate tries 100L batch on each and all moonshine) and all that happened was quest failed with no indication as to why

[Husar]

Yes, it is not game breaking, but we need to show to the devs that it is broken. It's not fair to say the least fun, when a game is released and it's not polished. To many studios are doing it. I understand if it is a beta. This should be solved before the game was out. It is a waste of time for the player, kills the joy and breaks the trust. I'm fed up with half baked ideas dressed as finished product. Glad that I didn't buy "supporter pack"

Exactly the same thing here. I have both Quests that are active in your picture 1. The quest person on the right side of the map asks for a quality of 90%. I gave it to her and she was fine. Mission complete. But the other person on the left side is not. I even tried to give her brandy. Just in case it is a typo. But didnt work either. Wasted several batches of booze for this. It s a shame!

I read on discord that its a known issue.

Thanks.
There are too many bugs on the release day , so sometimes we players do wonder if the producers take the quality seriously. We expect a final product. It's all right if you call it an open beta. Thank you for responding and addressing the issue.

This is a ridiculous position to maintain as a PC gamer. Games have issues, in particular at launch. Problems with side quests are minimal in terms of concerns for gamers, or more importantly, mature human beings. Given the complex nature of this game and the overall polish shown, I think they did a fantastic job so far.


Do they need to keep working on bugs as reported? Absolutely. Is it reasonable to expect ZERO bugs at launch? Come on, you already know it's not.
