Rage 2: Project Dagger Bug Bypass

This is a very simple guide for a problem that has caused havoc in the Rage 2 community since its release.

How do I bypass or fix the well-known Project Dagger bug?

First question should be:
What is the Project Dagger Bug?
Well, Project Dagger is the last mission of the game where you, Walker, decide to kill General Cross in order to bring an end to the authority. Sadly this bug occurs quite commonly. The bug basically happens when you have completed all of the missions for the 3 main side characters of the game (Marshall, Loosum and Kvasir) yet no new waypoint appears on your screen. In order to combat that bug you should create a manual savepoint just before the completion of the very last mission BEFORE Project Dagger gets the green light.

Yeah man, thats the terrible thing about this bug.

oh, well shit

@tagadhur I think you need to do the save before doing the last mission

this doesnt seem to be working for me... the scientist is usually my final one, is doing him last like super bugged? i saved, then loaded to that save twice but still nothing-

I spoke to Marshall (who's 3rd mission I left for last), was then given directions to nearby ark & when the way point didn't appear, went & did the same with Loosum, she gave me intel to nearest ark but then the Project Dagger map marker also appeared. Literally just beaten the game about 10 minutes before commenting.
