Progression blocked by bug

[Schnoz Complex]

Currently in the Old Town segment, after doing the Lv1 Delivery Rush mission. Have the current objective of "Sign up 7 businesses" before being allowed to do the next level, and none of the red dots for the other business locations spawned

I was still able to track down every other business after some looking, but even after getting the seven sign-ups needed it still won't let me start the next level of Delivery Rush, and the other businesses on the map won't let me apply until I reach the next level.

I experienced the same in the Industrial District (on PS5). It was also when I was at level 1 in that area.

Loving the game otherwise! I can go back and level up previous areas past 3, so I'll do that until this gets fixed. Appreciate the performance patch and hope for further improvement.

Honestly best takeaway on this game overall. Absolutely love it for what it is and can be in the future, and I really hope it gets better. But they released a game so buggy that multiple people can't get all the way to the end, or even past the 3 hour mark in my case.

Hi folks, I responded to your review Schnoz Complex but just for the benefit of other folks who may encounter the same problem we released an update today that fixes a few progression issues, that being said it's obviously not good enough that the game was released in the state it was in.

We have another update we're working on at the moment that will hopefully fix a few more issues as well as introduce more performance options and some quality of life stuff like being able to quickly restart a recruitment mission, speed up the respawn animations, etc.

All I can say is I've very sorry that this is the experience that you've had with our game, we're all working hard to fix these issues. It's obviously been a difficult launch, but thank you for your patience. - Will

I'm in the Consumer zone but cannot progress. I have 6 businesses signed up and at level 3 but major bug in signing up to Hermana which is the only other available business. In trying to sign up the challenge is to make three drop offs. First two drop offs are fine time wise, but the time allowed for the 3rd drop off to the rooftop starts fine then suddenly accelerates ridiculously towards zero, making it impossible to reach the destination. Cannot do anything else in the game as no other businesses will allow me to sign up. . Please fix Hermana so I can progress. Game is brilliant, but I'm so frustrated.

I imagine this mission could do with more balancing, but the conceit with these Las Aves Herman’s missions is that each time you pickup the game speed increases because of the “spice” in the chicken. I’ll have to double check but I don’t think you have to do those in order, if you use the dpad you should be able to switch between dropoff locations. If you try doing that rooftop location first see if that makes it any more manageable. But, we’ll have a look at the balancing on that mission again. This kind of stuff is always difficult because we’ve been playing the game so long we know all the shortcuts etc, what we find challenging and fun at 3,000 hours probably isn’t what most players will feel at that point at 5 hours.

Thank you. I would imagine even with any shortcut, it would still be impossible to reach the roof top in time. I will try reversing the order and hopefully this will get me through. Thank you for the tip. Game is super fun and the humour is great.
