Stuck in Tomb of Set

[Dr Kevorkian]

Right at the beginning. I've watched the YouTube videos and they just go in, destroy the first ball with the staff, and a bridge appears. No matter how long i shoot the ball for, it doesn't do anything. I'm playing two player. Any advice?

[Quicksword_Phantom]

I am also stuck. One player. You make the orb dissappear with the Osiris staff, but it gets stuck there. No bridge appears. A glitch??

This is very odd, I played the game in single player and 4 player online and didn't run into this glitch. If you're right at the beginning try going out of the tomb and back in should reset it.

[Dr Kevorkian]

when i watch people play on youtube they have all their bars full. Health, ammo, and the one that fills up when you beat up enemies. I can full the health and ammo, but seen as the paths to the rest of the levels disapear when you get to this point, i can't fill up the other bar. So it doesn't seem right to me that this is the answer... or is it?
I've gone in and out again, reset the game, everything. I'm about to try again, so I'll keep y'all posted...
Thanks folks.

Quicksword_Phantom; after you destroyed the orb, did you light the fire? I was stuck on this for a second too, and thought it was glitching...

So, yes. I solved my issue... sort of...
I was Lara, my son was playing as Horus. This is when the orb was indestructable for some reason. So when we went in today, I chose Horus, and he chose Lara. I don't know why it worked, but it did. So if you're having this issue, try swapping your players around. Worked for us, don't know if it'll work for you.

And if anyone from Square bothers reading these things, try looking into this bug, and maybe fixing it in a future patch.

Thanks for your time, folks.

There are people from Square that do indeed read these boards, I'm sure Crystal are working on a patch now that the holidays are over.

[Dr Kevorkian]

That's great news! Thanks!

Three months later, it's still not working. I get the same problem as the OP. Destroy the orb, nothing happens. I've watched YouTube, there's nothing more to do. It just... doesn't work. Been all the way out and back in again, still the same problem. It just doesn't work.

I cant make the staff work.I did it at first but don't know what i did. the orbs dont go and lighting Braziers is difficult.

[Captain Picard]

I can confirm this worked, for some strange reason. Thanks for the tip!

This game was fun, but so very, very glitchy.

Just want to say..

This bug still exists after 5.5 years.

The only way to progress is if the host controls a staff user.

SE never bothered to patch it; like usual. Couldn't even release patches for a critically acclaimed game like Nier Automata, why would this cheap, budget, buggy game get one?

I have finished this game single and coop many times. I have come across very few glitches.

[RMJ]

And I have never experienced the host having to have a Staff! So I do not find this correct.
