They are pretty small and not easy to see at first. Perhaps they are there but you just aren't seeing them?

Yeah.. can't see squat on that picture..

I can't see squat either - I should maybe go to Specsavers. :D If it's the Bog mission the problem is that at first the footprints sort of resemble the shape of the white lilies on the surface of the water, but they are reddish in colour. As you move over them they turn green.

A few times though my friends and I have just seen them... run out. We circle the area we last saw some, spiralling outwards quite a way and we just can't pick them up again. We had to restart that mission a few times.

I've seen these events fail multiple times when the creature fails to spawn at one of the designated fight areas. Cancel and retry, maybe even relog or restart server to get it going properly.

the following the tracks missions in genesis arent bugged they are just slightly difficult to see the tracks on the ground if you have epic settings turned on. try the lowest gfx settings and you should see them almost instantly without difficulty due to foilage

Yes they can bug and fail to spawn the creature at all. This is easy to see with the hunts in the snow biome at night where the footprints are clearly visible.

First time it happened to me I thought I just lost the tracks and failed mission while still looking. Waited all through the day to do the mission at night when the tracks are super easy to see. It became very clear that there was no creature at all, checked using tek helmet. Restarting the game corrected it. Got to exactly the same place and the creature spawned for a fight, then the mission continued as expected.

I haven't had a bug that failed to spawn the creature. But you do need to get enough amount of footprints. I once went to the end where the creature is supposed to spawn, but I couldn't find anything. So I backtraced the footprints and found few more that I missed, and went back, the creature was there.

Sometimes the footprints don't start at the mission terminal but a bit away, also the tracks can make sharp turns or lead through water making them easy to miss.

They are best done on a medium/large mount becausethe distance between footprints can also be a bit large
