Gamebreaking Bug in federation tutorial

Hello 
I'm new to the game and to the forums and it's a pity my first topic must be about bug...
I have searched for this problem and found only one thread which was really about it, though it wasn't of any help. (And here was another bug report about federation tutorial, but it involved borgs, so it's another case)
So. To cut it short, it's impossible for me to finish federation tutorial because I'm stuck at the Klingon attack sequence. I go to the armory, get the rifle... And that's it. My companions just stand there, not moving and klingons are locked in the teleporter room without them going out. No matter what I do, I can't change it.
I tried re-logging and I have deleted and created new toon. It's all same. Anyone knows the solution? Because if there isn't any, I will just have to quit the game and uninstall it.
I'm Star Trek fan, but I just don't have it in me to play Romulans or Klingons and I always choose human race in my RPGs, so trying different tutorial with other races is not an option for me.
Thanks in advance

(If you are getting the tutorial pop-up windows, make sure to click through each one until they stop.)
That and tell the security guards what to do.
Simply wait for the game and let it take you through the steps of equipping your weapon like you were a noob. It works then.
If you click away the dialog thingy that tries to help you, the mission just hangs.
sov42 - I can not tell them anything, they just stand there, doing nothing, without dialogue options.
kate370 - I am pretty sure I did all that, because I AM a NOOB (not IF)
Anyway, thank you all for help
Maybe you were a bit abscent minded or very tired (or possibly even a bit away from time to time maybe), did some things too fast or too slow, unsure, so some time sensitive things happened so that the game "thinks" something was done fully while it was only partially done by other game aspect, and not allowing you to continue (or to restart the problematic part) as you didn't finish something which game didn't let you encountered maybe (yes, it's a bug in the game as I see it) and it's too late to fix.
Sorry if it's not a real support post and if I didn't give any details, but I wanted to let you know it's a real bug/issue which should not in my opinion happen in newbie tutorial, which had caused me to restart the tutorial twice (yes I was that tired then) if I recalled correctly until I did things right. Including interaction with the NPC(s) after the 2 stages of weapon/armory part IIRC, and including the fight after. As said, some things around that area are very time/stage sensitive, it seems. (and yes, it might be you are too fast sometimes in this tutorial, and/or possibly too slow in another part. I don't know exactly. I do know it took me 3 times recently to start a character and that it was not my 1st char (an issue I newly encountered). Be careful not to overlook things.)
P.S.
Just noticed - maybe Kate370 has found the issue or a part of it. Along with waywardwanderer.
However once the issue was triggered you can't fix it AFAIK. Maybe moving over it too fast, even while reading it (not closing), without waiting for thing to occur possibly, is a factor. Sorry, as said I don't know but I do know the issue is near/inside that room, and that talk with a NPC outside later and fight near 2 friendly NPC with Klingons, or any similar scenario, will not be triggered, (the friendly NPC will not be there I think) so you are blocked.
Still waiting to be able to use forum titles
It happened on my 3rd play as well, but I made a mistake and equipped my weapon with double click, maybe, the game to function properly I need to do everything exactly as it is in tutorial and equip the rifle by dragging, waiting all the dialogue boxes first. That's the only solution I can think of. Will try it and will inform if that works
I hope it works for you!
chemistryset - Thanks for the video
Thank you everyone. The problem is solved.
It seems that you need to wait all the dialogues to pop-up and play, then manually drag the riffle to equip it and close the inventory. And it works then. Your allies go to the hall where you follow, talk to them, and you know the rest.
Hope this thread will help any other noob that might stuck on this quest.
What seems to happen is this:
You run to the armory and open it, without triggering the wave and tell you to open it of the guy outside.
To avoid this I am guessing you need to run past the armory and make sure he triggers before you approach and open the door (untested).
To fix it once you have bugged yourself.
1: Discard your rifle (right click it).
2: ESC -> Change Character
3: Log in same character again.
4: Run past the armory and trigger his waving.
5: Follow him into the armory - he should be having a few comments.
6: The 2 guys should now leave the armory and you can talk to them outside.
(no, you don't get a new rifle)
