DLC - search the camp bug?

[Methwalker]

Found a trail of blood, though that wasn't all the clues I should have found it seems... searching reloading restarting, I can't seem to progress? No new clues... Scooby Doo where are yoU??

Anyone else with this issue? Am I not seeing something, is it a bug, a bird, a plane?
I have searched as much as I can search, I'm searched out. Workarounds? Buy Bethesda one of them weird super fancy named coffees?

Update: Ok, I did something really simple and easy that fixed my issues....
I crouched lol
I had to cround walk around a LOT but that uncovered the clues I found. So if you are me and this happens to you, crouch.

Perhaps a little info of what quest you are doing would help.

I think it's bugged. I had to keep searching the ground until it let me click on an INVISIBLE dead alien (that seemingly never loaded in) as a clue. I think it was somewhere on the left side of the camp if I remember?

Is that the one with the son you are trying to find ?
Gotta search around they ate hidden....keep looking
Or quicksave and reload
I found them but last one was a journal on a table I had missed
I remember the mission blue dot was overhead, not actually on items etc.
I think I walked away a bit and came back as well

They have made tracking and searching harder, after all the bellyaching about the tracking quest for the Freestar Rangers, so you have to be fairly close to the thing you are looking for before the marker shows up. There are like... four different things you have to find; when you find the last one, vortex horrors will spawn in.

It is mildly bugged, but not the way you think. The dead alien can be knocked around by physics, but its quest marker stays where it was. It's pretty easy to walk through that area and kick the alien off into the underbrush or something, and then it doesn't seem to make any sense that examining the dead alien you found does nothing, but examining this empty space progresses the search.

I recall reading about something left of a bed (something had me a lil bit away from death before I woke up), but yea I just wanted to make sure I just wasn't blind. Beth did great on this but they left in too many 'features' I suppose. Reckon I'll just have to wait until the next patch to serve. all must serve...

Only just this year they got the game reigned in enough I could actually play it, and I"m only on my third universe, so hey, no biggie. I still got a LOT of things to run through while they patch this over.

Thanks guys, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking things.

Yeah same, it was right next to the footprints clue, hard to spot when nothing spawned.
