Grand Theft Auto Mission Bug (spoilers)

[PeferG17]

So the mission is bugged, the Devastator takes a hard left turn instead of moving with the convoy and it just sits there, I can't complete the mission, and before someone says oh you have to keep a mech near it, my Panther is right next to it. I've tried moving the Panther to different spots but the AI has decided that the Devastator is gonna stay in one place and prevent me from getting my 1 million C-bills. This needs a fix.

I had one vechile get stuck in this mission as well. Got 300k after I hit the Withdraw button but it always sucks when you've basically won but mission gets bugged.

Mission worked for me just now, so apparently it's not a guaranteed thing. Hmm.

[Pro Noob]

Ok

[Gravewalker]

I have done it twice and it bugged out both times, one of the strikers goes up the little dirt ramp and parks at the same spot both times and next turn it complains that it can't see the escorts. Even though I haven't moved them since it went up the ramp. :-/

I have had an escort APC give me the "We can't see our escorting mech!" complaint when my Atlas was literally a single hex in front of them. I have no clue how the game logic determines if you're "escorting" your objectives.

The only way I've been able to sometimes work around it is to take my entire lance and hug the APCs as close as possible.

I had the same problem. After restarting or reloading about 8 times I found if I placed a mech in the spot that the one mech want's to go to get stuck two then got stuck but once I killed off the first group of mechs they started moving took like 20 quick loading turns but got them to safety. Then found out their was a bunch of mechs waiting for me to leave.

In the latest patch, if you destroy all attacking mechs, you will accomplish the mission. Apparently it is a well known bug, and they could not fix it so they went the route of destroying all enemies also completes the mission.

I have solved the Bug, you need to block specific filds so the convoi cant stop on them.
On the last part of the building is a ramp place 2 Mechs in mid of the diagonal part and a third one one fild under them left toward building.
If this fild are blocked the convoi dont drive back agan and stuck.
PS: Steam Guard suck as Hell to realy need go online with steam to whrite a comment on browser and agan confirm the new browser .......

As long as you get one viecle to the target zone and wipe out the last enemy wave the mission will be successful. Just leave the stuck one there, never mind it.

The 1.9 patch which was released after this thread was made effectively solved the problem. It wasn't completely fixed but it's really not an issue anymore.

My multiple restarts of this mission today suggest that the bug is not fixed at all. It is still very much an issue. (Or maybe 'again' rather than 'still'.)

I said that the problem was solved not that the bug was fixed.

yes 5 times and no luck
will try the block the tiles on the down ramp to see if i can make them go that correct way

Just tried this today, it seems that if the devastator drives into any terrain that is difficult(takes more movement than normal to move through), it is stuck permanently and you cannot finish the mission even with destroying all of the enemy mechs and reinforcements

Odd I have successfully completed this mission multiple times without the devastator ??
