What an awful bug and right at the start of the game too. Makes for a bad first impression. I spoke with Samuels and he just stands there in medical, never leaves. Can't even progress.

Yep, it's terrible that CA never patched this out and it's even worse that it seems to affect so many people. I tried to get this bug myself so many times so I'd know what causes it and would be able to help new players through it but despite around 50 restarts, doing the beginning things in different orders, I could never get this bug and see it for myself.

So yeah, nobody knows what causes this, but your best bet to getting past it is to make sure your FPS isn't going above 60. Lock your FPS to 60 then when you start, go put your clothes on, talk to samuels, talk to Taylor, go to bridge in that order.

Also make sure your FPS isn't going higher than 60 throughout the rest of the game too. It causes other problems in other parts of the game.

Until I know that bug just happens if you talk with samuels before speakng to Taylor. Just speak with taylor first and all should work correctly.

Nah that's not it. It's a bug related to frames per second going over 60 (but fps going over 60 won't cause the bug for everyone).

Doesn't matter which of them you talk to first.

It matters to me. I trigger that bug each time I speak with samuels first.

Lock your frames to 60 and then do it - you'll see the door open.

I've tried it 30+ times a few years ago when I was trying to see the bug for myself. I could never make it happen.

People describes lot of bugs because don't playing the game with 60 fps... but this is the only bug I noticed and I can avoid it speaking with taylor first. I'm sure you are right don't take me wrong but in my case this is the only bug I had or the only one that I was able to notice... XD so no need to change my fps in my case.

And I restarted my initial playthrough today, and got it ... can get to bridge, nobody talks to me. How unpleasant.

Oh guys.... Wait for all members, take the document off the table and let's move on.

E: It doesn't matter at all if you talk to Samuel first.
I've been doing that exclusively since my first day. (Shorter route!)
And of course let them through and don’t stand in the way.

If it's not a lack of attention or the lack of 60fps, then something crucial isn't being mentioned here. This has never happened to me on 2 platforms and I've been playing it since spring after release.
