Help Luther Glass - Serious Bug / Problem with this side-mission

[DaemonX_HUN]

I completed this misson. Then after doing some other stuff, it MODIFIED itself (the mission was already completed at that time), and shown as failed. WTF???

[ゼロ⎛⎝Teletha⎠⎞ツー]

i have no idea what that quest is about its ♥♥♥♥♥♥, when i first started the game and i first entered the lobby he was already dead on that bed in the trauma center and then when i got the quest and went there i could hear his voice and i killed all the bots and then nothing happend so i left and then later in the game it suddenly pops up that i failed wtf?..

That mission pissed me off to no end. I went back and tried it multiple times to see if Luther Glass would be alive or dead on the table, trying to confirm if it was just a setup, but every time I'd end up with the completed / failed thing afterwards.

It's really annoying how unclear the game is about what's happening here. It's one area I think having essentially a silent protagonist just ♥♥♥♥♥ the game over, since there's no comment from Morgan to act as a resolution / explanation. Even then, they could've just had someone else come on the radio and fil you in on Glass, or even just how to turn off the bloody robot spawner. I ended up gluing furniture to the damn thing. All in all, ♥♥♥♥ that quest.

So, I think I've come to the conclusion that the mission fails because he was already dead at the start of the game, and his voice was being mimicked by a military operator to lure Morgan into a trap. The mission fails due to the fact that we didn't actually save him when we got there; he was long dead.

That's not what's happening though. After you get to Glass, the mission objective updates, saying it was a trap by Dahl and you need to survive the ambush. Then when you survive, the mission is complete. Later on, the mission updates again seemingly at random and says you failed. It has to be a bug, since there's no way to save him to begin with; he was dead at the start of the game.

If it helps any, early on in the game when you go in there for the first time he is marked as a 'corpse' and not just the knocked out phase we see other people in. I wouldnt feel to annoyed with it... it think its just bugged or was just in fact a set up. Even if it wasn't, those things attack on sight and he has like 4 or 5 of them on him.

If the only reason people are considering this a "bug" is because it damages their sense of completion of the game (some sense they didn't 100% it), then perhaps its a useful exercise in realizing that this is not a meaningful goal to have.

Same issue as described by others. Seems Luther Glass is perma dead.

I'm having an issue like this also. For me, I've not completed the mission yet... I was just heading towards the mission by going down the main elevator in lobby and as soon as I step out, I get a mission failed alert. I wondered if I was triggering some kind of bugged event by leaving the elevator, so I started finding another route back to the lobby in an effort to avoid whatever was triggering the failure... I swapped into another station area and after about 10 seconds of walking around, I got the mission failed alert... it makes me wonder if this mission is on a timer but the timer is not displaying correctly in the quest list.

Hoping this'll make it into the beta patch but probably by the time they patch it, it won't re-add it to the quest list if it's already failed.

It is defintely on timer. If you wait long enough after getting the call from Luther, it will fail no matter what.

The trauma center was the very first place I went into after starting my game. Went straight into the lobby, then the theater, and then upstairs to the trauma center. He's an already dead crew member from the very start. I think that maybe he was being operated on, inspected by a doctor, or was going to get an autopsy, because he was already on the medical table.


The voice you hear when you get close enough is just mimicry/a recording. The mission is an ambush, so considering he's dead from the very start, and you hear weird recordings, you were never meant to save him anyways. You were supposed to die. Not to mention too that Dahl has orders to kill everyone on the station. So the operators would've killed him on site, not take him, a nobody, as a hostage.




I have reported this to Bethesda. Problem is Bethesda support is similar to Comcast, where the lower tier reps don't seem to even read their handbooks on proper procedure and they don't read tickets. One of them asked me for a dxdiag and msinfo32 report (it's not a hardware problem at all). When I replied back, another said he's sorry and that they don't provide tips of walkthroughs on how to play. Replied back again, and was asked that maybe I need to load back and make sure I killed all the operators (which I said in my first report I did, no broken operators, all are dead). Replied again and got a response about asking on the forums for a walkthrough since they don't provide help or tips on gameplay like that. THIS IS ALL WITH THE TICKET BEING MARKED UNDER THE BUGS / GLITCHES CATAGORY! I swear, of the 50 or so reports I've sent in so far, most have been like this. If more people bombard them, then they'll have to get their stuff together. What's funny too is the female reps seem to have their ♥♥♥♥ together and the male reps have been utterly worthless, and I'm clueless as to why.

That's crazy cause when I got the quest I went to the Trauma center and he was there fighting robots and we both locked eyes with each other and immediately fell in love. Together we defeated the typhon and made a living recycling banana peels.

Seems to be bugged. Both mission markers are actually marked when you succesfully complete the mission (reuniting with Luther Glass and survive the ambush). But it seems that because the mission counter is bugged it still counting down no matter what. After the mission fails itself, even the description of the mission changes with Morgan stating that he just left him die.

I ran over to him the moment he called out for help, he was already dead! wth

He's dead the entire game--was never ever alive. Hence the ambush.

Sure, but the quest is still bugged.
