Lab doors locked?

[Terra Blade]

I took care of the lockdown and entered the room where two flamethrower liquidators were trying to break down the door. The door I came in locked behind me, and I got sucker punched and died. But now when I try to get back into the room the doors stay closed. Am I missing something, or is this a bug? How do I get back into the room to save the Doc so I can progress?

I have the same problem I can not get into an enclosed room

Two for two, I started a second game and dying in the pump station locks you out of progression since the doors stay closed.

So the third time got me through the room. Apparently the door locks so that you have to get an upgrade from rescuing the doc to unlock it. I don't know how such a bug got past the QA department but if you haven't gotten through the room I have discovered a very quick and dirty workaround. If you have already died and gotten the bug though...I guess we all just have to wait for that patch, or you can restart (luckily it isn't to far into the game).

The workaround is simple. If you die in the room quickly hit Alt+F4. Since the game doesnt autosave except as you clear rooms if you die resetting the game should put you to somewhere before the fight or door itself. It's cheap I know, but it works. Hopefully a patch will resolve the issue shortly.
