Missing Xeno Tech?
Finished the game and didn't get the chievo for the Xenotech.
I've found 10 (10th being Aerial Toxin that reduces infestation) in total and pretty much scoured every map.
There are 3 more slots open when setting up a mission.

I wonder if some stuff is again due to bugs. I couldn't pick up a Datapad in the Montaro either for example.
Or maybe the achievement is bugged.

  1. Anti-Acid Gel
  2. Xeno-Zip
  3. Pheromones
  4. Hive Jammer
  5. Chitin Kevlar Plates
  6. Stasis Grenade
  7. Extraction Device
  8. Soothing Serum
  9. Pheromone Mine
  10. Aerial Xenotoxin Application

The last Queen didn't have any either.

After I left the Montero the mission list shows an open secondary objective and an open xenotech.

Going back to look for it.

Gonna check. Wouldn't surprise me if it's on the Montero because of the bugged PDA aswell..

*EDIT* Yes, same here. I've went back to the Montero for the missing PDA already wasn't able to find the Xenotech either.
I wonder what it is when it's not bugged.

*EDIT2*
I'm missing an entire secondary objective there and 6 PDAs in total. None of it (except for the one bugged PDA I can't pick up) is to be found anywhere on the Montero.
The secondary objective also doesn't show on the objectives list.

Ok, then that's bugged. I suspected as much because it shows I left all the mats there, while I'm sure I picked up a few boxes.

You're missing at least the Hive tranquilliser from your list, I haven't finished the game yet, but my next mission also shows another xeno tech is available in it, assuming that is xeno-zip?

I believe the Hive Tranq is found in the Montero mission in the hidden lab, don't know if you found it but it should be in the area of the AI control, not in the control room itself, but I believe there is a data pad that gives you the code that opens the door to get in.

Why do I have the feeling that it's the bugged PDA on the ground that I just can't pick up lol.

There's a bugged PDA in the room with the eggs which I can't pick up....

It might be, I can't remember and sadly I don't have any saves from the mission to double check, I only know it's from a PDA with a code in it that triggers the door being open.

Exactly the same one bugged on my end. Yes. That's the one.

the PDA is not bugged, there is an area to the right of the map, the command room, in it you have to get a yellow PDA and then it will allow you to pick up the PDA from the egg area

How is it not bugged if that one shows up from the start and isn't being interactible, while the ones that spawn after do not?
Rhetorical question. It's clearly a bug.

i can't find the 2nd Xenotech in Tantalus Research Station :crying_yeti:

Edit: it was the Hive Jammer you can get from the Queen in the basement, if you miss it, the basement elevator is destroyed and you can't get it in playthrough :zote:
