Where the Hell is Heller??

[Mishakai]

So I completed the quest to return to Vectera, I have Lin, but Heller is nowhere to be found. I've gone to Cedonia to check to see if he is mining there, nothing. Checked the bar in New Homestead, nothing. I've tried going back to where you pick him up to see if I missed something, and the marker isn't on the planet anymore. I'm getting really sick of getting decently into a save game hour wise only to bump into game breaking bugs. For $75 you'd think basic core systems like keeping a crew member assigned as a crew member wouldn't be a thing. I'm generally not one to complain about stuff like this but it really seems to me like they spent a lot more time trying not to piss off cancel culture than they did to actually make a game that FUNCTIONS.

He's gone for a lot of people, you're not the only one.
I wouldn't worry too much about it and hopefully they fix it at some point. There's no official fix yet.
What you can do is reload an older save if you're not too far from meeting him already.
There's a chance you'll lose him again.
If you succeed perhaps you want to check your crew list every now and then and make sure everyone is there.

Just assign him from the Crew Menu and he'll show up in your ship/outpost

[Langkard]

The crew menu will tell you where he is. I accidentally left him at the shipwreck and found him in some bar in New Homestead on Titan.

Hes in Prototype 2

He's not in the crew menu. He disappeared from it. No way I'm going back 30 some odd hours in a save. What a waste of money. This is the second ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up save game thanks to bugs. They really need to do a mass refund for this game.

Ouch, I do make sure get him join outpost with crew station, by time I find him in crash ship.

I had something similar happen to me minutes ago, I found a landed ship somewhere and decided to take it for myself, after I came back to New Atlantis my ship was invisible, so I went to the technician guy, switched ship and switched back to my latest one, then I noticed that I only had Heller and Lin, Vasco and Sam were gone, Sam's daughter was in my ship but not her father, fast travelled a couple of places and yeah no luck, both are gone from my crew list too, I'll try to reload a save from just before I became the owner of the new ship later today

[zombygunner]

im sure they will drop whatever they are doing and fix this because you guys mean so much to them

[alan0n]

If you didn't invite him to your crew at the crash sight... good luck finding him.

[DANEDANGER]

In the mission back to vectera your send to a shipwreck where heller lies, you should find him there. Found this out by google search and litterally the second result gave me this answer

He has high outpost skill so I assigned him there with Lin

You're crying waste of money over Heller? Meanwhile I have him in my outpost and he's consistently just standing next to me yammering while I try to manufacture something. He's about to be sent off to a mining outpost I built just so I could get rid of Betty.
