So in a first for my group, we were hit with three bugged and failed missions tonight.

1st was a defense missions where bugs stopped spawning and missiles stopped shooting.

2nd what the extraction vehicle left immediately when one person entered it.

3rd what no one could get in the shuttle.

This was a serious WTF night, we lost so many samples. While I appreciate the devs, stop trying to balance and fix some bugs.

    I think it makes enough sense personally, though I agree with you that it could be communicated to the players by the pilot.

    There needs to be a sense of urgency around leaving as soon as the pelican touches down

      The pelican can stay there till the end of the mission, surrounded by bugs, bots. The instant one person gets in, the mission ends. It’s a bug.

        He’s saying there could be a hidden mechanic behind it, while I agree with you that it’s annoying af, it could be a fun added urgency. If it didn’t appear so much like a bug, and the game actually made you aware thats what it was trying to do.

        This seems to only happen after it’s taken damage. If the pelican is on fire, consolidate all of your samples to one person and have them board first.
