What platform are you using?
Xbox One

What OS are you playing on?
Console

(DID NOT ANSWER QUESTION)

Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
Hair trigger gets activated during enemy turn. Character with "HT" ability hits target and then the game no longer progresses. Stuck on enemy turn forever.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Activate Character with hair trigger ability make sure they hit a target and your game should no longer progress past that point. Meaning stuck on enemies turn.

How much "pain" is this causing you?
10

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
I'm attacking a safehouse. Btw

This is a Big issue. Also please tell me where on the main menu does it show the version number. Because I think you're lying. the only place to find version number on xbox is to go to the "manage game and add ons" section, from there you can see if on right hand side. This should be an early access game from my opinion, so many bugs and poor gameplay decisions.

Hey @TJ710, I'm really sorry to hear you've encountered an issue! The team is currently looking into this one. Can you recall any specific steps you took in the lead-up to this occurring? Does it happen in every combat? You mentioned you hit the enemy target and then it wouldn't progress, did the enemy die or just take damage?

I came to report the same issue. What happens to me is when Hair Trigger, well, triggers, and the character kills someone it then triggers Shoot and Move, which is not ordinarily able to trigger on enemy turn, so you are stuck looking at the actions menu with every single option greyed out, and no other game interface option to skip or end turn. Your only solution then is to load a recent save and hope it wasn't two hours prior.

Edit: to follow up this only seems to happen with Hair Trigger. I have the same character with Return Fire and when she kills someone in that case it does not trigger Shoot and Move.

Im having the exact same problem
if Hair trigger kills an enemy and activates shoot and move causing the game to basically stop working. It sucks when you're in a long drawn out battle and you have to restart due to what would normally be a off turn kill.
I hope this is fixed soon.
 
Hey folks, thanks so much for the updates here, they're really helpful. Sorry to hear you're all experience some difficulty with it! The team is currently working toward a fix for this one!

I'm encountering the same issue on Xbox. It happened to me three times, always while attacking a safe house. Attached is the screenshot how it looks like.
Has anyone figured out any way to move forward with the combat? I have almost won a very tough battle for the safehouse (just 2 enemies left) and it will be really annoying to repeat it...

Hey @Wh4yer0, so sorry to hear you're experiencing this too! The team is working toward a fix for this. I think I read somewhere elsewhere on the forum, that a player got around this in one combat by placing Maria within melee range of a cluster of enemies. I'm not sure if this is guaranteed to work though!

Thats half right, when the bug occurs outside i am able to play further with this "trick", but everytime it occurs in a building, the game breaks completely!

Confirmed. There is no way to proceed further with the battle inside a building once this occurs.
@LukeBRG, is there any estimate when the fix is going to be released? I can't play EoS anymore because of this issue. :(
 
Mine does the same thing, i save after every battle because of this bug, will someone please wake me up when this nightmare if over? I am done playing this game until there are fixes for the MULTIPLE bugs on Xbox. There are so many to list, I am going through the forum to find all the ones that fit mine and will add all the new ones I have discovered. This is infuriating, it could have been such a good game, and right now its unplayable.

Sorry to hear that, @KHA79RON! As I say, the team is looking into this one and is working toward a fix!

hey, was wondering how "the team" is doing looking into this? Working towards a fix still? April 15th here, any time frame for a fix? Its been 3 weeks, maybe Im just the impatient sort, but I would have thought "the team" would have had something to post by now? Are we still blaming quarantine? I still use that one too, it never gets old. But hey, you already got the coin from GamePass on xbox so why spend money on this title now, I get it, its good money after bad. But still, it would be nice to know if these bugs will ever be addressed or if you guys are done for the day and were gonna move on to something playable? Great game, its highly addicting and fun when it works, but these bugs make it basically unplayable. Ever feel like your heads gone? Play this game on xbox for a day and we will call it even. How bout dat?

Exactly right!!! Early Access/Beta with warnings and expectations so people know its not a done product. This mess has been a frustrating waste of time!!! I would seriously be having fits if I launched a product half-assed and just hope things worked out. There will be lots of people, maybe even me included, who will walk away from this game and in a week forget it exists and never come back to it. Way to go rolling out a launch on a huge platform with xbox Gamepass and really working the pooch over! i Christen thee the Flying Wasp, cue hilarity as the boat sinks and all the xbox players swim back to shore.
 
Hey folks, sorry to hear this is still causing some difficulty. I can imagine it must be really frustrating, but please know the team is working tirelessly to get this one resolved. Unfortunately, I can't narrow it down to a specific date, though we hope to have it fixed in a future update.
