Bugged Missions (so far) for my AOD Alt

paddy

Since AOD started the following missions immediately kick me out of the game. At first it was just my AOD alt but I recently tried it with an older one, that had completed the missions before, and the game booted him as well. I get a "map not patched" error each time. Again, I have completed every story arc with my prior seven alts with no issues. It all started with my AOD toon. So, the missions:

Breen Story Arc: Cold Storage - The space combat goes fine, the ground combat goes fine, but when I try to enter the Preserver Archive the game kicks me out.

Iconian Story Arc: Uneasy Allies - The space combat goes fine, the 'ground' part on board Sela's ship goes fine, but when I try to beam to the planet to visit Hakeev's sanctum the game kicks me out.

Iconian Story Arc: Blood of the Anciets - I skipped Uneasy Allies to do this mission. The first Space Combat part goes fine but when I answer the hail from Tom Parris the game kicks me out.

It should be noted that I've been a lifetime member for years and have never had any issues with the game until AOD started.

I don't know and I am just a player, but (as snovern and later many others said) it could be going to launcher options and there making sure "patch on demand" is OFF, together with "force verify" ticked ON, saving, and letting it verify could help you.

Thank you so much, did this (first time incorrectly w/ patch on demand on as well as force verify, and it failed) and it fixed it like a charm. Thanks again.

I actually mentioned it in another thread but it also fixed my problem and I'm again advancing in the mission chains. My problem is that Cryptic is aware of the issue and it could be resolved with a simple notification post by a developer so players could address it. Or, more importantly, they could fix the problem.

Regardless, the player base solves another problem so again thank you everyone for your assistance.
