So I didn't notice this until recently as I was busy with other games and if anything just doing whatever in FO4.
I wanted to progress the minutemen quest line and it seems glitched and I looked around and gathered some hopefully relevant info.
Patch 1.03 was to hopefully remedy this but it hasn't helped and the thought of having to make a new character to do these is annoying enough to make me stop playing.
=====
The quest "The First Step" seems bugged:
-it's the only quest I can't "unmark", it's always active
-It tells me to go to "Talk to the settlers at Tenpines Bluff" and the option is darkened out and not lit up like other quests. I assume this means I completed it, however, it was that way before and after discovering the location
-My oldest save has the problem so it happened early and I simply didn't notice
Apparently after going to Tempines Bluff, the settlers send you to fight raiders at the Assembly Plant(Corvega or something). However, I realize this after the fact since in my game I was told to go kill super mutants in the Memford Hospital(which apparently is not supposed to happen).
Other things that are odd:
-I get generic comments from Preston Garvey, I didn't even know you could get him as a companion till recently because this made me think I was done with him and did whatever he could offer me.
-I can't assign him to anything in the sanctuary
-I can't seem to trigger the quest "Taking dependence" presumably because it seems the previous quest and Preston is bugged in some way.
I apparently need a certain amount of settlements, I have:
-Abernathy Farm
-Finch Farm(Don't think this is considered settlement yet, no info of residents and so on when hovering over icon)
-Oberland Station
-RR Truck Stop
-Sanctuary Hills
-Tempine Bluffs
=================
Any additional info I'd be happy to provide, I just really hope it could be fixed somehow.
