CANNOT ESCAPE INSTITUTE

Post » Thu Dec 10, 2015 8:45 pm

I have been loving this game on PS4 but now seem to be stuck in the institute

No active quests

Shaun won't talk to me any more

Unable to escape directly or via the teleport room - It just says "Fast travel is not available from this location"

Help please

Anyone ...

Check your active quests and see if you can talk to anyone.

nope

and no save game to revert back to either - only autosaves and quick saves

This is a critical bug by the looks of it and needs fixing quickly ...

The faction you went in with tends to be the one which ports you out.
Up to the telepad area near you first come in on then you just walk to it when business concluded with faction and you speak with young Shaun, and it whisks you out.

Railroad and BoS both warped me there from the Reactor.

So what have you done so far in the institute?

Talk to Dr Li, over in Advanced Systems. No spoilers, but she'll resolve that issue.

Unless you tried that already.

If you're on pc, open the console and type:

coc SanctuaryExt02

Then press enter. It will teleport you to Sanctuary Hills.

Might not be enough. In my second game I decided to go with the institute, and so I did not bother to download the information for the faction that sends me there - until I realized that you had to finish the download if you want to leave.

I had problems escaping the Institute too. When you head up to the teleporter room there's a button to the right of the terminal that activates the teleportation sequence. It's quite easy to miss unless you're looking for it though.

Verified.

The button doesn't work when you first enter the Institute. However, after speaking with Father (even if you don't align), you'll be free to come and go. After he says this, the button works as it should.

Or you can fast travel from wherever you happen to be standing to anywhere you have been in the commonwealth? I like going from Shaun's office straight to the railroad HQ.

Father won't engage in dialogue with me - he just replies with a glib spoken comment and no conversation options

Oh boy.

Okay, try this. First, save your game.

Then, kill a doctor. You may need to fight your way back to Father, but see if this at least opens up dialogue with him. He should ban you from the Institute.

If this doesn't work, you may be stuck on a quest option the game didn't clear, and if you don't have a previous save, you're going to have a bad day. :(

there's 3 people you have to talk too specifically and the game releases fast travel control back to you. One of em is a woman who installs something on your pipboy...

when in doubt, talk to everyone.

your fast travel privileges sounds like they were revoked by father due to him not trusting you or some action you took past the point of no return...(maybe recruiting Dr. Li?)...gonna have to load a save before you talked to father.
