PS4 When Freedom calls Bug

Post » Thu Nov 26, 2015 4:40 pm

Is anyone having trouble progressing in the Freedom Calls mission i am at the part where i have to clear concord and i killed all the raiders and the other enemy. I looked everywhere in the buildings and sewers and nothing. I even left for a while came back still nothing. If anyone knows how to fix this issue or if Bethesda is coming out with a patch to fix this please let me know.

I have got the same issue, absolutely ridiculous, I can understand with a side quest but this is one of the very first main mission quests and it has such a game stopping bug :/ I even tried sending Bethesda support an email and have gotten no reply :(

I am also having this same, incredibly frustrating issue. I even wasted hours of my life by starting a completely new game and killing things in a different order but got the exact same result: everything in Concord is dead but the game won't progress the quest.

I have the same issue! I have spent an enormous amount of time scraping and building sanctuary hills into a community . My red rocket is a fortress. It's hard to go exploring because just like in the other fallout and skyrim if you go clear some place out it seems like you screw yourself out of a quest or mess up the whole game. It really makes you wonder if someone actually plays these games to find this stuff before release. I'd rather wait longer than wait for 15 patches.

Yup... me too. I've googled this and have found dozens or threads from multiple gamer forums with many, many poeple having this same problem. This is a huge progression glitch in F4 and it needs to be addressed yet even tho there are many, many players having this problem on multiple platforms - I'm using a PS4 but I've seen people playing the PC version and some playing the Xbox One version who are also having this problem, Bethesda has failed to respond to anyone who's reported this issue.

What's also missing is any kind of statement from Bethesda that they are aware of this glitch and are working on a fix for it. Crickets. That's probably the most infuriating aspect of this all. If I had some reasurance that a fix was coming soon, I might be willing to wait but when I get home from work tonight, F4 is being returned for a refund. I play games as entertainment and a diversion, not to get hugely frustrated by badly designed software.

Maybe thats a good idea... Im really frustrated with the lack of communication in this cases aswell. I mean its not a graphic bug or control issue. The entire game shuts down!!! So maybe if enough people would trade in their games again + the bad reviews on metacritic etc would force them to improve their communication with us. A simple "ok we see there is a problem, we started to work on a fix" shouldnt be too much to ask for!

I haven't encountered that. Just fast travel to somewhere, and then fast travel back. That usually fixes all bugs for me. When dogmeat disappears, that's the hardest one to reconcile. When that occurs, you have to clear your PS4's cache for his model to load back in.

Same issue here, glad to know I'm not the only one and pissed to be having the problem at all. On the first mission. Please, Bethesda, patch now!

Fast travel does not fix the issue. I have also seen this bug reported multiple places across all platforms with no response from Bethesda. At this point they're either oblivious to the problem, or aware but not informing people. Which is worse?

Same thing happening to me in Xbox one. Killed the stupid deathclaw 6 TIMES NOW. Keeps telling me to Clear All Hostile in Concord, yet i have. So it's impossible to progress thru the quest. Pretty sure this kind of thing has happened to me in every game I've ever played. I beat the objective, game doesn't realize, can't play anymore.

Yup, cleared every street and house in Concord wearing the power armor, yet still wants me to Clear All Hostiles in Concord. Nothing can be done to fix. I've fast travelled and restarted the mission a hour and times. I'm on xbox one. Bethesda support has not emailed me back either. F'ing companies just get their money, and then ditch supporting the broken garbage they sell.

Feel free to send me a PM if you're having this issue. It would be good to investigate save files.

Thank you.

I have had this problem as well. All I would like is some clarification from Bethesda about if the issue is going to be fixed. If not I'm not willing to start the game from scratch and would like a refund as I have clearly been sold a faulty product that doesn't meet even the lowest expectations. I am disappointed to say the least. Its not difficult to give some narrative on the issue and keep people updated who PAID money for this game. Its very poor.

It would be nice for some clarification that something was actually being done about all the issues with this game. Keeping us all in the dark is just a big middle finger to us, and personally If I don't receive a response on my issue letting me know its at least being looked into, Fallout is getting returned. I didn't pay $80 for a game I cant play. The bugs, as well as the lack of communication from the Bethesda staff, is just not acceptable. Seems like Bethesda let their fame get to their head.

I didn't fix it, but I did go back to a save spot before starting the mission (thereby wiping out about 6 hours of roaming, scavanging, leveling-up, etc.) and replayed the mission. This time, instead of leveling-up and collecting stuff before-hand, I just went straight to Preston and started the mission. I got into the suit, plucked the minigun and jumped off the roof into a ton of raiders--the game then progressed as it was supposed to with the Deathclaw coming halfway through. Once I killed it, there was one or two additional raiders to kill and I got the all-clear. Not once during the mission did I deviate and explore buildings or collect items. I just went on a killing spree. Once it showed all hostiles were cleared, then I saved and went back through searching all the bodies and buildings, etc. Then, I spent another 4 or 5 hours leveling-up and rebuilding what I'd lost. Not ideal, but at least the game let me progress onward.

In Russia, the same problem ((
I spoke in support of Bethesda, but the answer is no.
There is a very bad solution is to download the game earlier preservation, but to me it does not fit, I spent a few days off and I feel sorry for the lost time. I'll wait for correction.
We spend much money and not get a quality product, and this is very sad.

Any communication on this issue? Frankly it's nothing short of pathetic at a big sized games company can't even offer a response.
Not exactly a hard task is it? Literally a few words on the situation and what's going to be done to remedy it. Then again they seem inept as anything so why the hell am I expecting anything.
Games been out a week now, can one of you cowards give an explanation.

I am currently experiencing a similar problem except that for the final part of the mission, which requires you to go back to Sanctuary and talk to Preston, there are no dialogue buttons. I am not able to do anything and it is keeping the mission stuck on the last objective.

Representatives of the producer of the game!
Give your answer as and when you solve this problem?
At the moment, your product is not possible to use!
