Starport Vault mission bug? (spoiler)

[Deleted]

So I'm making it happen killing the war worm with my Scouts

(I saw the screenshot on Steam and I appreciate the effort that went into animating that laser blast, but why would you get close enough to get hit by it?)

I killed the worm with poison on the start of my turn. And I triggered some story elements that I admit, I didn't read as closely as I might have. Now I've explored the whole map and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do! It's turn 19 of 24 and the only objective says I need to kill the war worm and centers on where I hit it.

I've gotten right up on several of the other broken grates and always am expecting him to jump out at me but no idea if this is a bug or if I'm missing some key story angle for how to move forward.

Help?

We can try to post some assistance, but without details about where you are in the process it might be tricky.

Check the objectives screen. Is this your first time playing the level, or have you beaten it before?

This is my first time playing through the level.

When I moved north I got the objective to kill the war worm and minions.

I killed all the Narvidians that initially spawned. Then killed the worm at distance and it ended up dying from poison.

Dialogue triggered that said it wasn't dead but we couldn't go after it?

Objective is still on my list. I've subsequently cleared the level and no more xeno are spawning anywhere. Doesn't seem to be anything I can interact with so I posted it as a bug.

Metrics say only 80 people beat that level today -- with just under 75% of them using Scouts.

Might be a bug, might just be skipping the dialog and not getting the instruction.

If the objective is still there ... the worm is not dead.

I'll wait to see if fallen has any suggestions as to a possible bug -- or more likely, a tip for you.

I beat that section of the game this morning on my daily testing rotation, didn't any any worm-related problems.

I'll try an abort and see if we can't make replicate it.

Update: it looks like things are on the up and up. The worm was gone for just a turn and then popped up again. Not sure what triggered the bug that broke the story elements.

[Cory Trese]

Good luck. I'll try too. Level's definitely being defeated regularly on all platforms, but their still might be some edge case bugs that no one else is finding.

Thanks for the extra post in the Steam boards, looks like we can look into this one.
