UNDINE INFILTRATION: Fires are now unextinguishable

in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
Undine Infiltration now has a 50% chance of being unfinishable as both fire suppression devices and the CRM Breen gun do not extinguish the fires now. This is easuilty repeatable by simply playing and if you get the fires instead of the \Undine attacking the orb, you're screwed. Please look into this is one of the few manageable ways to get 8472 marks.

    Any update on this? This map is unplayable if you get the part where you need to extinguish fires as they are immune to everything currently.

    You have to do the same as in the new version of Researcher Rescue: use a replicator to get a one-time use extinguisher and stand close to a fire to extinguish it.

    Oddly, I found that Sabotage also destroys the fire entities, but I only discovered this after the mission failed so I do not know if it counts. Sabotage does remove the red objective circles on the map and the damaging fire, but not the smoke clouds.

    That doesnt solve it: When I last played the one-time disposable one didnt work either.

    The first fire in researcher rescue I had to stand so close to get the extinguish option to pop up it started doing damage.

    It's not that the damage doesn't register: it does - its that the damage floater says "invulnerable" or whatever when you get it.

    Personally, i couldn't even get the extinguisher from the Replicator. It said "Emergency Extinguisher replicated", but i never received it and it was nowhere to be found in my inventory.

    it's already bad enough that 50% of the players ***** up the interrogation part out of ignorance ; we don't need an instance-failing bug to top it all.

    I was having these issues too when I tried to do this the other week in a private match. It's a shame because undine infiltration was one of my favorite elite queues to run and now I don't have a fourth queue to run regularly to take me back to the half hour.

    Isn't it the same as Research Rescue mission? Isn't the solution/change for that mission work here? (get the temporary item and even if not in inventory go to the fire near until an interaction possible to distinguish?) If not, I wonder if a permanent fire distinguisher from research rescue could work here (don't try in a pug! just curious if one knows)

    Tried it. Doesn't work either.
