Sentinel crystal BUG in the Super Gore Nest
I was playing the level when suddenly I interacted with the Sentinel crystal, but quited by accident in mid game without upgrading anything. Now Im unnable to even interact with the crystal again (I tried reloading a checkpoint and even restarted the whole level later on)
Its very annoying since I have no way, and I mean NO WAY, to use it anymore
Is there any way to force it by using the console? or any solution to this bug?


EDIT: I found the solution!!! there is none
I had to erase my savefile and start all over again, then I could pick that damn bugged crystal
Apparently, the Bethesda DEVS did not f*cking thought about the posibility of a player skipping the upgrade menu, besides of the existence of the ESC option

So, if you found a Sentinel Crystal in game, do not (and I mean DO N O T) press the ESC button, the enemies can´t harm you while you are in it anyway
Otherwise, you´re f*ucked
Peace

Once you have it, you have it. Is it not in your inventory?

Nope it's not. As I said, the crystal upgrade menu poped up when I first encountered it, but I pressed ESC by accident. I got not upgrade whatsoever and the level marks the Crystal as an "undiscovered secret". It's impossible to interact with even if I restart the entire level, sadly

There are no extra Crystals or Ruins, only Weapon and Praetor points.

BTW, it's not a bug, you made a mistake.

You can 1- play to the end of the map and use the fast travel and maybe recover the lose 2- Restart the map and try again. or 3- go back to square and try again.

You could have reset all level progress before finishing it, but that's not possible anymore after.

Sentinel crystals don't go into the inventory, they are immediate upgrades. Maybe you mistake them for sentinel batteries.

Already restarted the level twice (once I finished it) and even restarted to the nearest checkpoint in my first playtrought right after this happened... But the crystal totem stays there, without the "Press E" option to press

So, unless I start a whole new game, I guess I'm f*cked. Wdym by ""go back to square"?

Back to square = Star over (new game) it won't take you long to reach that same point in the game. Best guess sez, you'll make it in half the time.

The same thing can happen when you pick up ruins if you hit the same one twice.

and no more mistakes, ok.

Is there seriously no fix for this? not even a save edit or anything?
