BUG: Super Gore Nest - can't get into Buff Totem area

[SnapeSlytherin]

I'm near the start of Mission 5: Super Gore Nest, I've reached the indoors area with the big stompy column (that initially holds a medkit), and I've killed everything in sight, indoors and out (I still haven't found any color keys).

The problem is, I'm still locked out of the area that holds the Buff Totem. The entrance (opposite where I've already collected the secret at the top of the stompy column) is still fenced off behind green fangs.

I've never enabled any of the cheat codes, so I know that's not the issue.

Has anyone else run into this bug?

Try running until 5-6 green portals open up, ignore everytthing, keep going through the portals, BUT NOT THE MIDDLE ONE, enter it last. saw this on makaproductions91 you tube walk through. double check wjth the video. hope this helps.

There are five teleports there,don't stop until you step into the right one. Though I always hated that point, first and only point of the game where you are forced to fight against buffed demons before you can get to the Totem.

Yeah, buff totems....I'll be honest, I hate those things. Those are the one thing (besides swimming) I think were a mistake in this game.

Thanks for the tips, Reaper and Rarity.
The gate I'm talking about is at 7:29 in maka91productions vid https://youtu.be/nVEb1LR_fms?t=449
If the green portals you're talking about are at 8:36 in the same vid, then they're definitely after the gate that's still locked for me. :(

WELP, I had to restart the level from scratch, and the second time around that damn gate WAS unlocked when it should've been. Definite bug.

I disagree because although they sometimes can make a fight more difficult most of the time they just drag the fight out longer presuming that you are obsessive with your flamebelch/glory kill management. Not a problem for me...I always flameBelch a quick moment before I glory kill because armor is always more important than health.
My point is that typically the Buff Totem mostly boosts lighter enemies that are quickly managed with light weapons. Remember in Doom you must never stand still so once your near a buff totem the first rule is to always stay mobile and to kill all demons.
Buff Totems just reinforce the fact that the second rule of Doom is that you must always stay mobile and kill all demons.

If there is anything about this game that breaks any part of any past or present Doom games it is the Precision Scope of the Heavy Rifle. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that mod gives me about a .5 second frame to forget every and all other rules of any Doom game ever made just to slow down a Arachnotron or Revenant yet this pleases me in so many ways! Ramblings aside if you gave me a choice to kill 10 Revenants with a BFG or Heavy Rifle...I'd take the Heavy Rifle and a shotgun/grenades to ice the cake.
