Delamine HQ during "Don't Lose your Mind" -- (No Spoilers) Buggy Quest/Area

Discussion

Anybody else doing this quest? I have some questions about it. I've gone through "Don't Lose Your Mind" maybe 30 to 40 times now (due to bugs) and still haven't been able to complete it yet. It's aptly named.

Anybody else running into these same issues? (And yes, I know there are bugs in general.)

  • Part of the roof of Delamine HQ >!above the AI Core room and garage!< in the streets has no collision, so you're able to fall through the world and die easily here. Possibly able to glitch into the otherwise locked building somehow, but not sure what that would do to the quest state.
  • The quest says "Find a way into Delamine HQ" but as far as I've found, there's only one door (the "back door") to go in and you need >!8 Technical knowledge!< to do so. Is there any other way in?
  • Once inside there is a lot of platforming. Seems difficult or impossible to navigate the building without >!leg implants!<, but perhaps intended.
  • The quest-related obstacles >!instantly flatline you if you touch them. Does shock immunity work to mitigate?!<
  • It's difficult to tell what are safe effects versus dangerous hazards that instantly kill you without some trial and error.
  • Once you discover a working path through the obstacles, you come to a room full of >!Delamine cars driving around!<. Later, if you complete the quest a certain way, a reward spawns here.
    • When the reward spawns, it often explodes or spawns inside the >!now dormant Delamine cars in the room!< such that you cannot complete the final step of the quest.
    • If you reload the autosave the game makes during the choice sequence at the end of the quest, you'll be trapped in the dialogue with no option to progress and the quest (and your ability to move) will stall forcing you to reload another save.
  • Reading data shards in this building during the quest often caused the game to get stuck trying to show me the text of a shard without pulling up the UI element, forcing me to reload. Seemed like a localized phenomenon although this has happened in other areas before too.
  • One of the quest choices requires >!10(?) Intelligence!<, FYI.

To get in there is a sort of roof hatch you can open on the left side of the building once you jump on top, close to the ramp that leads to the garage.

I did it pretty early on, you don’t need leg upgrades

The problem for me with that mission is that I can't get to the control room it's like the game think you'll have some upgrades in your legs to get to certain parts of that mission

In case you haven't finished yet. There are two adjacent windows looking into the shop where a car keeps going up and down.

You:

Break the window (fist, gun, whatever)

Jump through window

Jump on the up-and-down car

Jump to the catwalk the car is facing

Go through ventilation hole (?) on the right side of the door on the shop's second floor.

​

For the purpose of getting the ending you want (three different), you should save before going into HQ. This is because if you don't have jump upgrade, you cannot get out of the HQ; If you don't save before getting engaged in combat by the droids, you are locked in the quest's ending decision since you cannot save until the quest is finished.

I can relate, I got stuck there a long time, but it was doable without any leg upgrades

I also have more bugs to add to that list:

  • if you kill the drones with short circuit, they will sometimes still be active, scanning you and keeping you in combat, preventing you from saving during the whole thing. You can kill them again by just shooting them a couple of times until they explode. Took me a while to figure that out.

  • The drones sometimes don't actually drop to the ground and get stuck midair making them unlootable

  • If you go back inside to loot the legendary components that drop from the drones, you will get stuck there. The possibility to open the door you came through is gone as soon as the door is out of your sight for some time (I think it "despawns" and spawns a new door there that's closed, because you finished the quest already). If you are quick you can loot 2-3 drones before that happens.
