bug with Slate? /spoilers/
Hello, guys. I've faced very nasty bug during my walkthrough on a story with Slate. After I've beaten Tin Patriot and discovered that there's no Shock Jockey in promised place, I ran just to the room with giant wall and there were a painting on it, something like "we deserve a soldiers death".
The problem is that after I beat the first group of soldiers, Slate calls me "tin man", standing at the unreachable balcony and NOTHING happens after! Though Elisabeth still acts like I'm in action. At first I thought that I have to reach him with hooks, but it's impossible, and in youtubers' walkthrough on the point I stucked there come another groups of soldiers and doors finally open (all of mine are locked).
I have licensed version of the game which comes with "Season pass" DLC and my computer satisfies all the game's requirements so there is no problem with it but the pointed before one. All I want to know is had anybody faced the same problem? How can I fix it?

By the way sorry for my bad english, it's not my native.

If you mean you are in the big courtyard with open air ceiling, wall up front, and columns behind you, doors, one on left then one on right (the one where you first encounter electricity mines? If that is the area, the Slade or Slate guy does not appear right there. You have to use grapple I think, to get over the wall and go into the lobby where there is a decorative bridge and the artwork on the wall where soldiers are pushing Vox Populi into the fire where it looks like a scene from movie 300. There is a ceiling in this room, some fountains, and flowers. It has yellowish red lighting. He will be wounded on the floor near the bridge, but not under the bridge. Basically ahead of you when you enter the big room with bridge to your left side, the vox populi art on the left behind the bridge, exit to the right. Slade is ahead of you right next to the bridge. He is wounded. After some dialogue he'll give you electricity power

You will be given a choice to do something or not to do it. So maybe you should read about it before you are faced with the choice. I don't know if it makes any difference.

@Yura Welcome - Actually, yes, Slate does appear there. >.>

Yes, he sends out many soldiers to fight in that location.

@delph10 - Have you modified any of your .ini files? If you changed the "bUseBackgroundLevelStreaming" to FALSE, that might cause your problem. Set it back to True, go back to an old checkpoint, and try again.

If you haven't made that change, I'm not sure. I would load a previous chapter and try again.

You might have to restart the chapter.

Hello again everyone! Maybe I'm a little late, sorry for those who wondered how to fix this bug - I've already done this. The problem was in the skyhook - somehow even if you kill one of soldiers by this weapon, the may NOT die and so you are stuck on this part of the chapter. So, just SHOOT all of them and use skyhook with !great! caution, because I've met the same problem on Fink's factory. Restarting the chapter doesn't help.
Thanks everyone for answers :)
