#Class T Alarm Scan got stuck in the wall - ALT://R6D4

I thought these types of scans were on rails but apparently not. For the first time ever for us, it got stuck in the wall at 98%. Bot refused to enter it, so we kicked him, and the 3 of us jumped in the corner, thus enabling the scan to move forward to 99%, before getting stuck again even further. By the time we understood what was happening and tried to make it around the wall to finish the scan, we had been swarmed and died. Got sent back to the checkpoint that's before even picking up the second data cube, which is a major bummer and feels so unfair since this is from no fault of our own and clearly because of a bug.
I have a 5 min video of the bug as it happened that I could upload for more clarity.
Known issue ? Planned fix ?

That is a first for me as well, but to be honest there must not be a lot of teams playing through D4 with bots... The "bots sometimes refuse to enter team scans" is a known issue though, and has been brought to the devs attention. As for this T-scan becoming stuck, I have never seen it reported yet.

You guys remember how this scan and room work right ? It's during the third loop of D4, in the room with a big whole in the middle, and the T-Scan goes all around the room. Usually the scan ends by going up a ramp near the entrance of the room. In that case, juste before going up the ramp (on the right), it kept going straight towards the wall and got stuck in the corner, almost unreachable for us, and definitely unreachable for the bot.
I will upload the clip to YouTube and share it here for you guys to see.

Sorry for the moderate amount of french swearing.

Have you used boosters that had bioscan boost as a negative effect?

lusty mountain
#

Oh, I see what you mean Henx

#

Now I remember

you can finish bioscan the other side

#

the booster that slow down the scan will have an effect

lusty mountain
#

These scans are not "meant" to travel this far in the room. Negative bioscan speed causes this issue :(

#

Well, at least it is a "known" issue

#

I agree with you though. The scan should stop moving when it reaches the "intended" target point, like the top of the stairs in R6C1

#

I hope this issue gets addressed in a future patch.
Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences and reaching an understanding.

it should stop at the end rather than go through the wall

sly harbor
#

Is there any way to let the devs know about this ?

lusty mountain
#

We will.

sly harbor
#

Amazing. Thanks again everyone.

omg i think 10cc never care this dead game

lusty mountain
#

The scan is indeed moving slower than intended

#

hey bro i play this game 1400hour，their attitude let me so disappointment

#

from r4 to r6alt so much bug they didnt dix it

#

fix

sly harbor
#

I understand. I still think it's unrealistic to consider they never cared for this game. They still made a good game with a lot of good content so your frustration seems exaggerated even if it's understandable. I agree that the persistent bugs are annoying and don't give off a good image.

#

may be

#

I enjoyed the game and even completed many solo and duo challenges i hope the game will get better and better

#

I still hope they can allocate some resources for an "operation health" after R8 is released, and try to review all the known issues and fix what they can before moving on completely to their next game.

#

While the vast majority of them are not game-breaking, I can totally understand the frustration at seeing them still in the game, years after having been reported.

#

The logic is that bioscan speed on t-scans does not make the circle itself go faster/slower but just fill the bar faster/slower

#

so yours filled so slow it had nowhere else to go

#

Bizzarre since I'm pretty sure some T-scans (game doesn't have many) like r6d2's technically just stop moving at a certain point

#

this is very confusing cause I was pretty sure this one ended at the bottom of the hall

#

Did you check point by any chance on this scan?

sly harbor
#

No checkpoint on this scan unfortunately. Maybe they added a strict end point for the other T-scans in the game and forgot about this one ?
Does someone have experience about this scan on R6 pre-alt ? Was it already a T-scan ?

Maybe R6C1 and R6D2 T-Scans don’t have clear endpoints either, but it’s much less of a problem since there is more space around where the scans should end and you wouldn’t even notice if they moved a few meters further. It’s just a hypothesis.
Anyway, this issue seems easily fixable, especially if other T-Scans aren’t plagued with the same bug.

#

Would be very obvious for r6d2 would go into the wall like yours

#

This scan is just weird
