Shadowheart No Longer on Ravaged Beach
Usually Shadowheart is available to assist you with the 3 on one Intellect Devourer battle at the beginning of the game, but she's no longer there. Is this intended? Is she elsewhere? That fight is incredibly difficult solo with 11 HP xD

Also, if you can please patch the immersion breaking visual of yourself standing on the Ravaged Beach before the Nautilus actually crashes that would be cool :)

I had this happen when patch 5 was first introduced, it is not intentional she is supposed to be there and was for me on the 2 games I've started in patch 7.
In patch 5 I had to just save right before touching the transponder and reload until she spawned properly after the cutscene. Think I had to reload like 3 times before it worked properly...
If you haven't already, try to verify files through steam and be sure all mod data is deleted properly if you've ever used any.

I'll see if Reloading helps me locate her. I've newly installed the game again but will verify to make sure it's not a file issue. I'm not using any mods. I generally don't use mods until I've completed a game at least once so that's a ways off for me!

I will say as well, that for the first time at any point when I've been playing this game, the main hellkin prince fighting the main mindflayer, killed the mineflayer and immediately starting wiping out my team. Do you think that having someone down by the time I reached the transponder will cause an issue.

Patch 7 is the first time I've been able to free Shadowheart from her pod. Every other time I've played the game, post-ship crash I met her pounding on the door of the temple. So this is the first time I ever encountered her unconscious on the beach.

I was able to free her with the last patch as well. Thankfully reloading solved the problem. I'm almost nervous to start games however as installing the new patch will likely require me to start over again. I'm patient, but not that patient. I wonder how far off full release this is so I can leave it installed without worrying my save will be useless.

August 2023 per recent reports. Are you saying you think a patch 6 save might work when release hits? If that is what you are saying, I seriously doubt it.

No, not saying that, but just hate to start during patches, and not have my save be useless when the last one launches. I know when the game fully releases I'll have to start all over again, which is why I've been hesitant to really get too far into the game. I don't want to be bored with it by the time it releases.

Yeah I noticed this too, they changed it to where if there are no enemies present then the mindflayer goes for you instead. In previous patches it didn't matter if teammates were downed when you touched the transponder, so long as they aren't dead, but that may have been changed too I suppose.
Edit: Curious if you ended up getting it working with patch 7?

PSA: if you freed shadowheart from her pod, she will NOT be at the beach. she will be at the grove nearby where wyll is

Wrong she will be unconscious right next to where you land.
If you miss her then she in the grove

PSA, I freed her from her pod and she was on the beach. Under previous patches, I was never able to free her and I always encountered her pounding on the door of the temple.

@Nerm - Yes, thankfully I was able to find her on the beach when I reloaded.
