Bug or am i missing something ?

[Shade]

Hi , i finished a mission i have a message telling me i should extract , i reached my vehicle and nothing happens , is there a button , command i missed or is this a bug ?

[Nathan]

Did you click on the vehicle/ARC? Do you get options when you click the vehicle?

What mission? After what event?

[lynchie72]

Click on the vehicle and select "redeploy squad" or "extract squad" from the menu. "Extract" if you are ready to return to the Otago. They may not be the exact commands but something similar to that.

Your marines need to be within the yellow highlighted circle that appears when you click on the ARC.

I also am unable to interact with the ARC. Per a user's suggestion, I restarted the whole freaking mission from the Otago, but it still didn't allow me to interact with it to extract Colonists or make a Tactical Retreat.

Restart your computer. It must be a restart. Not standard shut down and turn on.
Then start a new game in a new save slot and skip the prologue. After you get PDTs locations go outside of building complex on the ground level. Once you are outside, Harper should start talking to you and the ARC tutorial should be triggered. For this to happen you do not need to do anything on the top floor. Juts go to the ground level by using one of elevators and leave the building.

On my computer, I do not have this issue. It worked for me properly before and after the last update.
To me, it looks like the game loses its logic for some reason.

Well it did not work for me, i took the hardest level , took me hours to complete what i could but now i can't move on to the next level , i have to say , i don't have the strength to play through all that again
i really hope one of you guys have a better idea

This is what should be triggered based on what I described. There is no other way to start interacting with the ARC. If it was not, then it is a bug.

too bad , wasted too much time on going through the first level on the hardest difficulty, im going to take a break for a few days then try to restart the level

I usually refrain from making posts about bugs, but I'm in the same boat. This ARC bug just ruins it for me. I'm donsky until this thing is fixed.

Yeah the developers really took the quote "it's a bug hunt" too seriously IMO.

Great game, but the bugs man.. I would have rathered stuck with the xenomorphs!
