"Hunt of Creature"

[Mad]

Side mission picked up on planet.
NO indicators either on foot or in ship.

Looks like it may be yet another mission I have to waste money cancelling.
After picking the mission up and completing the dialogue it started tracking immediately yet no indication of how to find these "creature" was mentioned nor is there any form of tracking indicator. Flew around in jetpack for almost an hour then flew around in ship for another 20 minutes or so.
No tutorial vids for this mission type either

There are creatures in the game already, but most of it is still placeholder state. Every mission has the possibility to set a waypoint towards it in the mission interface, have you done that?

If you are referring to the "track" option it does nothing except list the mission on main window.

As for any"set waypoint" option I have yet to see one for any mission let alone side missions

For side missions you usually get purple waypoints on the planet, and ONLY when being on the planet, from space you won't know where to go except the system + planet where the mission is located. Do this:

- click in the mission list on the mission you want to do
- The description will appear
- In that window locate the little check box to link towards the location of the mission, look carefully or you miss it, then click on it which will set a waypoint in the galaxy map.
- Arrived at the planet in space, look for a purple destination after hitting B. After the planet descent, look for purple waypoints.

In missions without time limit it's enough to set them as active in the list to automatically show their waypoint in the galaxy map, but this could have changed in the current game version, IDK for sure, sorry.

As I said, missions related to creatures may still be a dead-end because in a placeholder state which means they still need to be designed in comming game versions (the creatures and their missions alike). Problem with that is: the waypoints may not show up because of that.

weird... steam is not giving me notifications of responses.
I just paid the fine to remove it from contracts.
However I have never seen any checkbox in any contract unless you are referring tot he "autotrack" which is checked by default ...

I know this is ressurecting a really old thread, but I just finished this same quest. I found the creatures in a cave in a mining pit.

one of them dropped a claw with 60k credits

Was there a waypoint? And the thread isn't even six months old, yet. In game development terms, that's nothing.

I had a similar problem, but it started from the other end. I found a lot of beasts and items from them, but I couldn't find where to sell them. Then I was advised to find this task and I managed to complete it in 5-7 minutes. I simply took the mission and went for a walk around the planet. I found a resource-rich stone and around it there were quite a few beasts that I could shoot.

[dzintarsxxly]

Maybe if you fly, by ship, or by jetpack, then the beasts won't show up + you probably have to get away from some populated areas.

[kekkomartin]

yeah, there's the 'mysterious man' who gives you a quest to kill 5 creatures on the surface. I had to use the hoverbike and get away from town. just pick a direction and fly until you hear a growl.

Oh, and no, there was no waypoint, for the guy above who asked. I went into the cave at a pit to try to do some mining, and found the creatures in it were the same ones the hunter guy in town wanted me to kill

Hi, I hunted the creatures but ... Where's the hunter???? I cannot find it to come back

[FrootLoops McGee]

^^ I'm having this same problem. It seems the only way I end up finding the hunter in the first place is in "destroy the village" missions that wind up in the desert ceramics facility. I would really like to find a way to unload this 3.5M claw.

Almost in every village you'll find them.
Usually it's village center or central square
