Metro Serial Killer

[Kikkelipylly]

I am stuck in the metro right now, I have scoured pretty much every location and simply cannot find any clues about the serial killer. I did some quests, found some case in the old hospital and returned it, but the quest remains incomplete for some reason. I made the family leader kill himself by proving that the surface is safe and I killed the lava demons. Am I bugged or why cant I progress? The autopsy solved nothing and after that I have no clues.

You need to get the Detective appear at the entrance to the Looter Base tunnel and inform you of another murder.

Try talking to the people in the Stalker base BAR including the guy who witnessed the murder when you first go down to the Metro. That could help.

Talked to the dude at the bar as well. Talked to pretty much everyone at the stalker station

And you retrieved the organ case for the guy at the station and it didn't trigger when you tried the leave through the tunnels?

Nothing triggered, I think it got ♥♥♥♥♥♥. The quest is still in my quest log and I cannot do anything about it.

Hmmmm, I am sorry dude, Dunno, I think you might wanna reload the easliest save and try again. Just bite the bullet.

[Kikkelipylly]

Yeah, not much to do. I didnt realize to save when I entered the Dead City. The most recent save before that is so far away that I dont really want to go there.

Okay
BUT when you found him,

HOW THE HELL to survive the ambush ?
AGAINST 14 enemies in close range ?

Even BUFFED my char to 11-11-9-11-4-4

So is luck the only one, which would work ? as the str roll also failed now 2 times ...
you could not even hide and listen to the conversation !

Already tried all combination ...
maybe one thing I could imagine to talk to the stalker boss before you go there ...

PS: Tried it again with my STR 11 now it worked ... the mercs left , so no problem to get rid of them ...

here if you want to do it the hard way :-)

Use the strength option to intimidate the mercs, they'll desert and you'll only face 5 peeps(3 of with are close together(use a grenade)).

yeah thanks, now it worked with my str 11 , don't know why it didn't worked 2 times, when I tried ... so it worked the third time

Now even ALL ran away LOL apart the two main chars , who have been somehow unarmed !

Loved this quest, reminded me of a movie I Come in Peace from 1990 with Dolph Lundgren & Matthias Hues. The movie had an alien villain that was pumping his victims with heroin, then puncture their heads to extract the resulting endorphins from their brains - I think it was the inspiration for the quest.

And the fight against the mercs was the hardest in the game so far.

yet another major fight that if you have high luck, you get a quite humorous alternative fight involving someone going mad from a long repressed mad cow disease.

not sure what luck is needed since mine is maxed at 11, but:

-you get a blackscreen, and in the background you hear grenades being tossed and guns being fired, and much screaming and dying.
-when the screen is visual again, all the enemies are disarmed, 30% are outright dead, and others are stunned on the ground; all are injured to some extend already.

... just point and shoot. like killing rats. literally. fight is over in less than a turn.

BUT, and big but... I don't think you get anywhere NEAR the same loot drops, and this fight normally has the best loot drops in the game I think.

I went with the dex option on a second go round, and found a complete set of the best armor in the game (combat and hedgehog helm), and there were piles of weapons and ammo everywhere.

but of course, the fight needs a lot more management then. I highly recommend grenades.

in my fight, there were 15 enemies in total, surrounding you on 4 sides (NSEW) in tight groups of 3 or 4, all with AK47 or better weapons. perfect for tossing some grenades.

anywho, that makes 3 major fights I can recall that have hilarious and easy ending luck options to them:

-the fight when you try to leave the cannibal den after distracting them.
-the fight where you meet the gang who mugged you in the prelude
-this fight

in all 3 of those fights, the luck option completely trivializes them, in hilarious fashion.

Hi, what organ case? Just as OP I am stuck in this case. Also, I am supposed to go to look for a fellow, a location appears in the metro tunnels (Technical rooms) but I cant find any way to get there! I know I am doiing something wrong in both cases, but it seems as tough Ive been everywhere, talked to everyone, nothing happens. In both cases nothing happens.

you need to go to the looter base. there are a couple of quests you can get in the Stalker base that will send you there. the base is on the other side of the mountain range from the Stalker base. IIRC, one of the guys in the looter base will send you to the hospital for the case.

once you have done that, and you try to leave the underground part of the looter base for the surface, you should be approached by the detective and told that there has been another killing.

just follow where that leads and you're done.

Been to looters base and talked with everyone. I know I missed something..... but what the heck is it? Am walking around the city now as I am trying to find that gangster guy in the southern part that I am supposed to kill (for the guy on the beach). Oh man....

Are people still having problems with the quest? The devs made a mistake and they tied this quest with the Morozko case quest.
After you give the Morozko case to the "doctor" the next part of the quest starts, they quests are tied but you have no way of knowing why or how.
After that is speaking to some npc and going to a new location on the overworld map
