Ad Astra Per Aspera, bug

[The_Billuminati]

I cant get through the shack in the swamp!
after turning off all the beacons and going to the warren shack there is nowhere to go.
after some research i found out that there's an emission and a chimera that should spawn, however, that's not happening, even after i load an old save and do the mission over.

is anyone else having this problem? is there a way i can fix this without starting my game from the beginning? or am i being dumb and i missed something.

I found the chimera but i'm in what I would say an unwinnable situation. The chimera attacks in a spot where there is nowhere to hide or have time to run/heal. Then an emission...

I had this too and thought I was softlocked, but if you approach the cabin from the shortest path possible the chimaera spawns a lot closer to the shack, which gives you more time and a shorter path to chug energy drinks and outrun it to the shack.

Did you just enter the shack or did you go through it into the next area? You're supposed to get to the clear sky base and go into a little underground thing.

I had a huge mental breakdown on this too LMAO, it looks like it's glitched, but the game actually wants you to rush to the last objective, the EMISSION IS SCRIPTED.

Also the Chimera, probably unkillable Chimera, you have to run to the last objective and a cutscene will play.




I feel like this part was modified heavily, because I remember a scene like this from one of the trailers where a stalker saves you from the emission... with the same underground room you enter at the end of the swamps.. where you then find however another person only...

[DomEReapeR]

The first time I encountered the chimera I killed it, so it's not unkillable, you definitely need to run to the shack though as staying and killing it will not leave you enough time to get to the clear sky underground to be safe from the emission.

That did it thank you. I was already "heavy" but was able to just barely drink energy drinks fast enough to get to the wooden walkway.

The chimera is killable. It took about 40+ buckshots, and maybe some slugs, as well. But then you die from the emission. Good to know about running.

[neogramps]

There is more than one shack - and they all look really similar - the first one you get to, is the one that just leads to water. You go left of it and around in a wide arc and head towards the other shack you can see. you pass through multiple floating glass anomalies and then loop around to the right and it starts doing the psi-blur, as you near the other shack, which has a longer path leading to it, once you're through that one, run to the bunker

[tetsu_maru]

Don't bother fighting it. Just run to the quest marker and then when the emission starts keep running to the mission marker.

[DOPAMINE DRIVEN]

Neo gramps u sir are a legend in was starting to think I was glitched as was just hitting water on other end of shack not knowing there is more then 1 shack 😀 out of all the vids iv watched not 1 tells u there is more then 1 ill try this tonight thankyou

[Darren Evans]

Yeah, don't bother trying to fight the monster, just keep moving towards the marker. The most frustrating thing about this part of the game is not the emission or the monster but the damned swamp terrain. I hate having to move around areas like this trying to find solid ground. Add this to the emission timer and the monster and you have THE most frustrating section of Stalker 2 I've experienced so far.

[Kramer]

navigating that swamp to the final shack was a pita. didn't feel fun at all.

This is ducking stupid there is no way to do this I even got back to the old church ♥♥♥♥ this game this is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dumb as ♥♥♥♥

Holy crap I’m glad to see I’m not the only one. I thought this was a bug as well! I loaded a prior save went back to base and started doing side missions again tbh I would expect nothing less from S.T.A.L.K.E.R 😆👍🏼

That place was such a pain in the ass I left without checking a few poi/stash locations. I'll probably go back now that I'm a little better off.
