Love Those Bugs - The Undying Killed my Boffs

First of all, it was not the NPCs that killed my Boffs... it was an Undying Bug.

My team had finished the last fight in the pit (all went well during all of them) and I was on my way to face the masses and chase down the Orion Gang Boss. No sooner than getting out of the pit that I noticed the civvies seem tougher... but no, it wasn't them but the fact 3 out 4 of my Boffs were out of action. I could not figure out how after surviving the fights in the pit that they suddenly were taken down. I go back to the pit to recover them and this is when I notice the bug. The Boffs are nowhere to be seen... they fell to the invisible floor bug that suddenly made its way into this mission. I thought I could try and take out the last Boss with my remaining Boff and my Security Team/Shard of Possibilities Duplicates. But then when I left the pit again, my last Boff disappeared on me. I went on my own and after a futile attempt... revived with my team to finish out the fight, despite the stupid bug.

As I always say, you spend more time fighting the game than you do fighting in the game. :rolleyes:

    Its not an invisible floor bug. The round pit with the grated cover and the fire coming out... the grates will open if you get close to it, and anything that falls in gets killed. This includes you, your BOFFs, and the NPCs you're fighting.

    The only real problem with it is you cant revive your BOFFs that fall into it, and you need to do a Respawn to get everybody back alive.

    I know about the grate and always give it a wide berth, so the only way they all could have fell into it is if the pathing for my boffs just ignores the obvious hazard.

    Also, one of my Boffs does not follow. I go back to trigger movement, the boff respond, but another one stays behind. I can only get them going by using waypoints, step by step.

    I had this bug where a boff just stays behind and if you go to get them, another gets stuck. I went on without her and after the next scene change she was back. But today when I entered the arena (with a new chara) suddenly my team was gone and I was fighting the first wave alone. Didn't make it, got respawned team included, entered the arena - find the unkillable beasts *outside* the force field. o.O My boffs pass through but I can't, and then they get offed one after another. I can aim from directly behind the field and shoot too but I don't do any damage. I tried resetting the mission but just pop in at the respawn point with exactly that same situation. Do I have to go back all the way to Law to start over?

    Update: It took about twenty minutes, but my boffs duked it out themselves (with me shooting at the occasional snout or tail peeking through the force field). Then the next enemy was announced, and after the cutscene I was *still* alone in the arena - again didn't survive for long. This time when I respawned with my team the beasts were waiting in the arena, and the game went on as intended from there. *phew* 'cause, as I noticed too late, there would have been no going 'back all the way to Law' with no way out of the arena. ^^"
