Ancient Cistern raft bug

[poperboy]

So the raft in the Ancient Cistern tomb is bugged for me. It's turned over and I can't seem to be able to turn it over again so I can't get on it to throw the oil on the opening. (I can't finish the tomb).
Anyone know any workarounds?

Hm...Leave location, restart game and fast travel back ? If it wouldn't work, then you should report it on game forums.

im stuck too there, but i think there's a way to do it.. Oo

I'm having the same problem and can't climb onto the raft. I have reloaded the checkpoint and the raft spawns under water sideways, slowly floats to the surface and turns levels out flat upside down each time. Everytime I try to climb onto the raft I fall off instantly.

If what firehex posted isn't working i guess it's best to just keep playing and check in on it after a while. Maybe it will resolve itself. If not try blowing it up or something. lol

Sorry got nothing but if it's a permanent issue there's probably nothing you can do about it until it's patched or you start over.

I don't know if you could do this, but maybe try replaying the tomb in expedition mode? If that resets it, then go back to the story mode and see if it has reloaded it.
It probably won't, but at this point if it were me, I would be clutching at straws like this.

I actually fixed it. If you restart from checkpoint, the raft is in the water and rises. If it reaches the surface it turns over. If you rush to the lever the water keeps it the right way up.

I ran into the exact same issue, and made a report/thread for it. The only solution I've found is to rush to the "lever" that makes the water flood in, so it gets pushed away and thus doesn't flip over. Impressed how they missed it in QA though. Oh well.

Im having the same problem but in my attempt to fix it myself, my checkpoint is now a firepit and i cant make it down there in time. welp.

Same here... Ran into the bug, went for camp checkpoint and reload, now I cant get over there quickly enough anymore... either they patch it, or because they're lazy they are just sitting there saying that we should just keep on playing until we can craft explosive arrows, grenade launcher ammo and the like...

[BearishBear]

Quick Update: Went away and did some other stuff, coolected resources, etc., fastravelled back in and lo and behold, it was right side up... lucky I guess...

thx, gonan try. got the same problem, fast travelled in and out, and am now getting respawned form the campfire.

I did this tomb several times (playthrough + expiditions).
There was never a problem.

I don't even know, what you are talking about. ;)
Is there a video showing this bug on YouTube or something?

[NoPhilter]

This bug is created by quitting or dying during this stage of the tomb. The first time the raft spawns, no problem. Only a repeat of this tomb stage causes the "spawn of the raft" under the water, which it starts to rise to the top and flip over backwards. However as stated above, reloading the checkpoint at this stage and running to the top of the stairs, jumping on the lift to raise the water gate, will fix this. 100%. Goodluck guys and goodgaming ;0

I'm affected by this bug as well and I'm really screwed because I already tried fast traveling away and then back and now my checkpoint is at the camp fire at the entrace to the tomb instead of near the lever.

For the person who asked for a video, this is not my video, but it shows the glitch.

You could try to load an older save (the most recent that isn't the auto save) You might lose some progress but could be worth it if everything else fails.
