[spoiler][bug]Stealth scene in Nightmare mode is frustrating as hell due to glitch
I am replaying the scen in collectible mode so that I can get all the photos. However, I've realized how buggy the scene is where I would sometimes be stuck in captured mode even though I rewind far enough where the light wouldn't hit me. Despite this, I am still stuck and rewinding all the way wouldn't restart the scene. I have to reset the chapter to restart, though this is my 2nd time already. I think this is one of the reasons why I hate this chapter so much

that part was great ,you just have to study the environment and the "enemy" movements and use the rewind just a for a little time but often ,nice little challenge
if you don't like it just means that you don't like ninja play :)

I made a brief guide about this to help those that get stuck in this section, there's ways that this section becomes not really a stealth section

Hope this helps for people looking at this thread!

I know. I beat it in the past. Studying the movements isn't the problem. It is the GLITCHES in that scene especially when you get caught in the light and rewinding doesn't do a thing as the light is always on you or when you get caught and you are frozen because of a glitch. I gave up when I got caught by the Mr. Wells statue's spotlight - I was trying to look at all the posters around it. However, I got caught by one and when I rewind, it didn't work even though the light is no longer on me, and the game wouldn't reset if I rewind all the way.

I also love the MGS games and would finish the game without getting caught. Again, it isn't the actual gameplay, but the glitch that makes it unplayable for me.

Again, I am not stuck on the puzzle because it is "challenging", but because of a freaking glitch where it would freeze my game.

I think this part was rather simple to me anyway. If you get caught oh just rewind when their light is not shining onto you.

It is a bug because even when I rewind and get the light not shinning on me, I am still stuck in rewind mode. When I rewind all the way, it does not reset the scene like it normally does. Please understand that I do not have a problem with the puzzle, but I have a problem that the game glitches on me on this scene.

Yeah I never really got that glitch cause when I was playing the nightmare first time around. All I wanted to to do just get out of there. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ creepy.

I got this bug in collectible mode. I didn't get this bug during my normal gameplay. Instead, I had the bug where when I am next to Mr. Jefferson and if I get caught by his light and rewind, I am still caught. However, I can reset the chapter by rewinding all the way. This glitch doesn't let me do it as when she rewinds all the way, she would say that she can't rewind anymore. the scene doesn't even turn white, she is just in her rewind pose.

Ah hmm sorry about misreading! I do hope you get a solution or that an update would fix this :/

I just played it two more times, and now the bug is more frequent. I took pics this time around:

As you can see, I am not even in Mr. J's spotlight even though I am frozen.

This picture shows a new variation of the bug where I teleported to the start of the scene after being caught and rewind, which is normal. However, I can't move now and rewinding doesn't work:

Also, both screenshots are in color - when you are caught, it suppose to be in B&W

Too be honest I am so puzzled why this glitch is happening so much for you.

Hitting esc and choosing "reset to checkpoint" usually solves this. Usually.

Tried it, but it doesn't work for collectible mode as the option to "reset to checkpoint" is not highlighted. I finally got the picture I needed for that scene.
