Objective tutorial glitch?
I am stuck on the map screen where I am supposed to send a scout -- after selecting an objective. I cannot get off the map screen - have to shut down.

Having the same issue, not sure if im braindead or its a bug
same, no way off map, stuck
I failed placing the scout and now no option to redo the tutorial or close out the map. Loading the last save automatically goes into the map and no option to place the scout or close the map.

I had this problem. Alt+F4 out of the game, restart and select one of the assassination targets and you should have the scout ability. Follow the clues, press F to send scout and it should reveal the location of the objective.

Hey guys, sorry to hear that you are having trouble where you are stuck in the map screen.

So we can see exactly what you see, would it be possible to share some images or even a video so we can reproduce the steps you have taken?

Many thanks

Same here, assigned two scouts to random places and when I died it gave me the scout tutorial pop up again where I have no option to avoid, after selecting my target quest the maps comes up and I have no available scouts to place, and I cannot get out of the screen. horrible feature.

I maybe found the Problem, you're need to hover over the map like left of Izumi Coast and than just press F or what ever button the game says so the Scout reveals that Part of the map and than you can just leave the map just fine. The Totorial is a abslolut failure and NEED a REWORK to explain itself better because a Tutorial that needs another Tutorial to understand it is worse than no Tutorial at all, especially if it locks you in and make you unable to do anything but us ALT+F4 or Taskmanager to close it and wait for any help from the Support/DevTeam for a Problem that technically dos't even exists and can't realy be found do to the fact that it is a simple Gameplay mistake. To put some constructive criticism in because we should be Working together and not against each other and because a member of the DEV-Team is activ in this chat, DO NOT MAKE ANY INTERACTIVE TUTORIALS FOR THINGS THAT COULD BE EASILY EXPLAIND BY A SHORT VIDEO AND ESPECIALY DO NOT MAKE TUTORIALS UNSKIPPABLE OR LOCKING THE PLAYER INSIDE THEM WITH NO WAY OUT.

PS: I apologize if the last Part sounds a bit aggressiv, that is NOT the intend, it's just so the severity of the Problem is emphasist and i know that interactive Tutorials can be easier to be understood by some but a combination out of Video and Gameplay is most of the time the better if not even the best option so People can see what they have to do not just sit there not knowing what's wrong or what's the Problem realy is.

Problem is I don't have any scouts available, so there is no way for me to do anything.

That is a nother Problem of the Tutorial. Sadly just like you, before i found out what's the Problem is, i lockt myself in the same situation and had to make a new Game and do everithing again up to that point so that i could do the Tutorial like it's suposs to be done. I'm sorry to say that you can't do anithing else or try any stuff until you finish that Part, so the only thing to do is start all over and do only the steps you're told to do. I hope that this will help but I'm truly sorry that there is no other solution i can give you.

Hopefully you have worked it our by now but as Azrael said, just click to the right of the Izumi coast, it will then reveal the target you need to exit the map. Its not explained well AT ALL and is a horrible feature, I dont know what the devs were thinking. For anyone stuck Alt + F4 then re-enter objectives map and then click in the blank space just to the right of the Izumi coast. Thanks go to Azrael

Yea, I ended up starting a new game just didn’t want to go through the hours of cutscene, but luckily I can skip that otherwise I would have uninstalled the game right then and there xD. I realised that I should’ve paid more attention, but it’s annoying that the game doesn’t have a work around for this by just letting us go out of the tutorial or the map.
