Visions of Truth quest still bugged after patch

[TimePointFive]

Loaded the save and scar wasn't even there. Reloaded a much earlier save, re-fought Faust, went to X17 and Scar is there but the conversation with the Representative ends at the exact same point pre-patch. After Scar says something like "How can we make this happen sooner?" C-Conciousness just turns off and I can't talk to anyone. I've left the area and came back and nothing works. Please help.

FIXED WITH THE 1.1 PATCH

The locked door bug during 'A Minor Incident' is also still there, despite supposedly being fixed. Not the patch I was hoping for...

same problem. I'm about to just use console commands to end the quest and skip to the next one since the developers couldn't be bothered to play test the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ main quest before release.

I've done that pre-patch when I was struggling and it doesn't work. You do the command to end the mission, then the command to start the next but it does not generate an objective for you.

That's weird because it did work for me. I used
XDKFinishQuest E09_MQ01 True
XStartQuest E10_MQ01

It's possible that if you do this after the dialogue bug that it won't work. I did the commands before talking to Scar at Malachite.

I will give this a shot

Edit: It still gives me the new mission with no objective. I can not proceed

Even if it worked, I discovered after the following mission that I would need to use console commands to start every new quest, and I worry it will get really bugged out by the end mission if I kept up with that. So I think you actually saved some headache. Here's hoping the next patch actually works.

It almost sounds like the fixes aren't retroactive. Meaning the best bet is simply starting all over from the very beginning. And that might not even be a guarantee...

Still bugged after 1.02

Considering that people are telling me about there being even more plot stoppers further into the main quest, I think I'm just gonna put the game down. The first 35 hours were great, but everything after that is simply unfinished...

I think the quick trip to Rostock and back to Malachite worked for me since the scar was there, and the quest line worked for me

i have the same issue first i fu*ked up and bricked my game by going up the elevator prior to clearing x17 reloaded a save after 15 minutes of being lost. went back to just after the C dude goes away cleared x17 went back to elevator went up and this bald dip sh*t is just standing there

ive played through twice now. both leading to game breaking bugs. how did they manage to say we did some QOL testing and tested the campaign and they wouldve walked into the same bugs that literally stop you from beating the game

# How to Fix Missing Scar Bug in "Visions of Truth"

## The Problem
If you're stuck in the "Visions of Truth" mission because NPC Scar is missing from the mission location in X17, preventing any progress, here's a working solution I discovered after multiple attempts.

## Solution Steps

### Prerequisites
- Make sure the door to X17 is locked (this seems to act as an important trigger)
- Have Faust's necklace in your inventory from the previous part

### Fix Process
1. Leave the Malachite Region
- I teleported to Rostok, but any location outside Malachite should work

2. Enter these console commands in order (restarts "Visions of Truth" mission):
```
XDKFinishQuest E09_MQ01 True
XStartQuest E09_MQ01
```

3. Post-Command Steps:
- Since you already have Faust's necklace, the first part of the mission will automatically skip
- You'll proceed directly to part 2 where you need to meet Scar at X17
- Wait for Scar to finish his dialogue

4. Final Steps:
- Sleep in Rostok (or wherever you teleported to)
- Teleport back to Malachite
- I did it just in case (not sure if required): Run about 200 meters out of the city and back in to reset any city entrance quest triggers

## Why This Hopefully Works
This method essentially forces a mission restart while maintaining your current progress. Since you already have the necessary quest items, it skips the completed portions and puts you back on track where you were stuck.

Hope this helps fellow stalkers!

I have just started a restart after not being able to find Fausts body ( on xbox ) I'm sure my run through will be allot faster this time so will post back here what happens in 20hrs game play or so, the door also did not open for me but saving infront of it and reloading several times worked for me.

I got same issue . And have had tons of more bugs too through out my gameplay . This game have never been tested that is for sure . How can we encounter so many bugs in a game there is suppose to be (released) I mean it is not small bugs. But game breaking after game breaking bugs . It's insane .

So disappointed. Holy f***
