You can't go in certain directions for a reason. My son was having that issue but only when going to a higher level area.
I have been playing with my two sons and we have been able to do everything else so far.
Try doing the main quest and lower side quests. That might unlock stuff.
Also do the crafting quests as they come. That might be holding you back for some reason.

Same problem for me.
i can't reach location for my next mission.
There's a killing zone after the third quest zone

Because the devs have locked the map until sunday (this week) they will unlock all regions of the map and let you let you unlock more memetics.

I think it's just a solution for other players to get comfortable with the game and not see any high leveled player carry them throughout the game etc..

This completely killed the game for me. I wasn't that happy about map exploration being locked behind quests, but i'm going to do the quests anyway, so it wasn't a game killer for me.... even though takes ALL the fun out of exploration and simply being able to push your boundaries.... but the time gated map progression is DUMB AS F for this type of game. I really don't understand why they did that, but it is China... they do like to control everything you do.

I lost all interest in this game the moment i got my quest to visit Tall Grass, or whatever it is,
only to find out I can't go there until after so many days pass.... I would have refunded my battle pass if could at that moment.

But hey, its free for the most part.

Gonna loose alot of players that way. Loosing motivation and interest in the game.

This is silly, even you play 10 hours every day you wont complete the entire season 1 stuff.
I played in the beta so i know what i have to do.
People are skiping a lot of quests or activities and then will complain they are not making any progression.
I did all locations, all quests, secrets, silos, most objectives, enough base building to make it automatic( got diggers, organised stuff), made tier 3 gear and optimised mods.
I still have a lot of work to do with the base, do random events and get more materials from events.
Didnt even start to plant and get cooking recipes
I dont see the appeal of "fast food" culture in every aspect of life🤔

Well I'm happy that it's fine for you, but many of us feel completely c*ckblocked by this.
I'm sorry I don't enjoy doing all those silly sidequests. The repetitiveness is already incredible frustrating as is and then I can't even progress on the map/main story any further?
Now I'm sitting here losing interest in the game, as it honestly is a complete run through without any difficulties and now I can't even progress further.
Not sure if having to wait 2 more days, having time to reflect on how shallow the game actually is, really helps. I would've come online, be happy to play again with my buddies and just enjoy it for what it is. Instead I now have the time and frustration to build up negative thoughts about it.

People can have different opinions than you, I know that's a hard concept for you to grasp, but no matter what you think, if they don't like it mean they don't like it.

This happened to me last night, I got a quest (Lost in Madness) that you get early on in the game. It sends you to past the kill wall. This is one of the most idiotically designed quests in this game, it shouldn't even be there till you unlock that area.
This game earned the negative review from me

[Nefarious]

It's like 1-2 days away, there's schedule in game it's not that big of a deal, there's plenty of things like silos and 30+ space time crates in current open zones and weapon mods you could be farming across the open zones in the mean time. *Also don't forget to do you're weekly cortex/resonator defense stuff.

is there a timer somewhere? I asked in game and "the world" answered 1 day 16 hours.

Do all servers go to the next phase at the same time? My server is saying Monday but people are acting like its less than 24 hours away

I think it depends on when each server went live. Or it could depend on how fast people do stuff on each server.
