The one for the barkeep. Obviously. /s

[Serpiko82]

Yes. The job Is done, I reported to Barkeep, but the blue quest marker stays active and no new dialogue options about jobs appear.

Barkeep is now effectively locked out from giving quests.

Yes. Started happening to me in Zaton.

I went back to Cement Factory and had one from the barman there that wouldn't complete.
Reloaded a save and decided not to take any more from him for the time being. Then I went back down to Zaton, and took one from the technician on the Sultansk. Did the mission, got back to the Sultansk and both doors wouldn't even open to let me in to the boat to go see the Technician to hand it in.

I am skipping these now until they are patched. If you decide to take one, make sure you have a recent save before taking it, and I'd advise just doing the bartender/technician mission and handing it in without doing too much else so you don't waste too much progress before finding it bugged.

I'm having a similar issue, except it's with Sidorovich.

I have that problem with at least three different barkeepers, not just the original Barkeep.

The doctor in Malachite is bug too.

Yah, if you REALLY need to fix it, my understanding is that you can install a mod to enable the developer console, and then use a console command to complete the quest.

As others have said, it happens sporadically in multiple places. I've personally seen it w/ barkeep in Cement Factory and w/ medic in Malachite.

For Barkeep, I've only done his first mission. It worked pretty seamlessly BUT there was a problem after killing the bandits. The mission prompt said return to Barkeep, but when I opened my journal there was an additional "let the mutant out" or something like that. I did, instantly regretted not seeing this sooner, as it would have been better to let it out before killing the bandits.

I asked which one originally here, because I have a bunch he'll give me now, but Rostok is a mess so I'm avoiding it.

Just wondering if any of these bugs are due to mission objectives not popping up then locking the quests.

There is a console command to cancel a quest for the source.

I had to use it one time because after ending the quest for barkeep it was still active.
After using the command I could continue as normal.
Might be an issue with quests mods for deleting the cooldown.

The problem with quests not clearing is not caused by mods, because I do not play with mods and I have experienced the problem of quests not clearing.

It's a bug, already reported by many, waiting next patch...

I suspect that wedged quest givers will remain wedged, and that any fix will only prevent new wedgies from happening. While they "could" try to scan thru and find quests that "need" to be cleared, the danger would be false-positives and clearing quests that should NOT be cleared yet - the least harm likely would be to just prevent new instances from happening.

Same bug. I've seen suggestion that the the main way to successfully complete it is to have no other side missions active and immediately complete the quest when you receive it.

I stacked up a bunch of side missions as I was exploring and tried to complete them all before handing them in and couldn't hand this one in.

I also can't activate the Chimera quest, and I have another quest bugged but can't remember which one.

Same.
