The main quest "Dangerous Minds" seems to be bugged for me. After watching all of Kellogg's memories I came out of the memory "chamber" and Dr. Amori and Valentine are both bugged. Dr. Amori gives me the "I'm busy" runaround and Valentine continuously says things like "remember I'll be in Kellogg's memories with you" and "sit down lets get this started"

The quest acts as if I haven't started yet, but I have actually been through and completed all of the dreams.

I tried many times to load quicksaves from inside the memory, and nothing seemed to work. FWIW this seemed bugged from the get-go, it crashed a few times when I was in the first memory. I am playing on PC.

Is there a console command I can use to complete the current quest? I have tried the New Vegas quest commands but none seemed to work. This is infuriating! Restarting the game is not an option.

PLEASE HELP!

Bumping out of frustration...

Bethesda, please help

I'm getting the exact same bug. Any help?

Shameless bump... please help us

I managed to get past this bug. After leaving the chair, Dr. Amari only gives an "individual is busy" message. If you exit the den into goodneighbor and return to the den you can talk to her again. Unfortunately the next step of the quest still doesn't trigger. I noticed that after exiting the den, Hancock had gathered all the npc's around him to give a speech. So I reloaded an earlier save from after I entered the den, but before I talked to Dr. Amari. Next I went back outside and watched Hancock finish his speech. Then I returned to the den and went through the memories and this time after leaving the chair Dr. Amari triggered the next part of the quest.

tldr: Let Hancock give the speech from his balcony before talking to Dr. Amari.

I encountered the same bug, but managed to figure out a way to get the scripting back on track: Put your weapons away and melee Dr. Amari. You will immediately see the quest status update, but she (and everyone else) will immediately become hostile to you. Run around and try to stay alive for 20-30 seconds, during which the game will autosave your new quest progress. Then, when you die, you will re-load standing in front of Dr. Amari, but she will actually continue talking to you.

This was a lifesaver for me, because I had almost TEN HOURS of gameplay in between my hard save files (I quicksave all the time, but it was after the scripting broke).

It's really frustrating that Bethesda still haven't figured out how to iron out these story-critical scripting bugs after so many games with similar problems. I get that creating such a vast clockwork universe leads to nearly infinite possibilities for the game to break (which can often be equally impossible to reproduce in QA), but at least nail down the story quests!

I have this same bug. I used the console command setstage mq202 320 to complete the quest and then setstage mq204 15 to start the Glowing Sea quest. However, some people are reporting that Virgil is not spawning for this new quest, so you're still bugged out (haven't tried for myself yet). So I guess I'll have to look for my most recent manual save and try the quest again...

Yeah that's correct.

1) To see where you're at on the quest, open the console and type "sqs mq202", which will show you the quest stages.

2) You can try setting it to the next stage depending on where you're bugged, but if you're at the end type "setstage mq202 320" to just finish the quest.

3) This may not load the next quest for you, but through some trial and error I found the base id for it and how to trigger it! If "The Glowing Sea" didn't appear for you after Dangerous Minds, type "setstage mq205 15" to trigger it.

Also for someone that can't trigger Dangerous Minds to start try to type: "setstage mq203 05"

All those codes without ellipsis. !!!

Virgil isn't in his cave now. I have a video of this happening but for some reason I can't post it?

I am so damn angry with this game at this point...

Take out the spaces

Does anyone have an idea if this will be patched in the coming update?

Well, that's what the patch are for, i guess...

However, as someone has suggested on a different topic, just sum all the bugs and glitches to a single topic, so that Beth has an easy work to read them.

Also i thing there will be a lot of patches until he game comes to an playable state for some of you.

---------

I have only one advice to share.

If the game doesn't play even if the specs are above min, the best way to help Beth do it's thing - make a clean windows installation, with only the basic driver stuff, and fire the game.

If the game doesn't work, then (and only then) you should leave a comment about a non working game.

That will make the devs work much more easier. !!!

MY TWO CENTS WORTH...

The beta patch has not solved my issue of no Virgil...
