The Rocketeer Quest Bug - Solution found!

Bugs
#1

So I’ve started on the Rocketeer quest. If you don’t want spoilers, don’t click the big thing below.

**SPOILERS** HELLO **SPOILERS**

So I made it to the supposed house in Sassau where he was meant to be. Outside I find this guard that I did a quest for earlier in the game. I had to retrieve something holy from the grave of a priest in Sassau. I did this but forgot to put it back. Now he’ll arrest me whenever I try and engange in a conversation with him. Now this is where the issue starts. I’ll be stuck on a black screen forever loading, where I can occasionaly hear the guard say things to me.

BEHOLD I found a workaround, not really. So I decided I had to kill the guard, because I couldn’t knock him out or something of that sort. So I did this, stole the key, agreed to imprisonment. Seemed to work fine. Suddenly I could find Konrad standing in the middle of the yard, didn’t think much of it and continued my quest. I got to the point where I had found the “Assassin” and want to talk with him again, but now he’s stuck inside the house again. Well. I had the key that I stole from the body, so surely I could just walk in. When I did that, I get a cinematic I can only assume is the one you get in your first encounter with him. After the cinematic my game is stuck on a black loading screen again.

Have anyone experienced this bug? Or is it just me?

If you have, have you figured out a workaround? Or did you just reload an old save?

Same here. :frowning:

same here :confused:

#4

Same here. I’m quite fed up with this game.
Its been a line of quest bug after bug after bug.

DID THESE GUYS EVEN PLAY THEIR OWN GODDAMN GAME?

#5

Chill. Getting that salty on the forum gives no solution, other than pleasing your own frustration. People experience different amount of bugs, I’ve only experienced two, granted they were both quiet gamebreaking.

#6

Same problem here. Double problem regarding Urban, because I too forgot to put back the relic so he attacked me as well. I had to put him down because everytime he attacked me he was invicible and I was stuck in zero health but still alive with no chance to get my health back (so basically Urban turned me into a zombie). This was in early game, I sneaked in the house and assassinated him. I looted sometimes later the entire building, including the office of Konrad Kyeser.
When, much later, I followed the quest to recruit Kyeser to build a trebuchet, first issue was Urban was back and alive. Still he attacked me because of the relic, so I quickly killed him to prevent a new zombie situation. And after the assassin stage, when I enter the office of Konrad, I have an infinite loading screen, nothing more.
So is there a workaround since the post of Kanj? Or am I stuck in the mainquest definitely? (because fixing the relic issue with Urban would require for me to start all over again as I did that very early…)
Cheers!

EDIT: Okay! I’ve found a way to continue without trouble! So Konrad is guarded by two men: Urban in front of the house, and another guard inside guarding the door of Konrad’s office. We all know now that Urban is bugged somehow, but the same trick work for the other too. So after the assassin phase, wait till morning until the second guard is in his post inside the house. Kill him silently (I used my bow, right in the head) and flee in silence (I went just behind the small ruined church of the garden in front of the house). Wait (in real time, not “fast wait”), after a while someone will see the body and call the guards. Konrad should again flee from his office and go outside. You can talk to him now. The quest should be properly completed. Note that the first time I tried it didn’t worked, so I reload my save and this time it worked (you can save by resting in the infirmery). Hope that will help!

That not a fix thats a work around. Why are Warhorse not addressing this game breaking bug?

Same problem here - knew I should’ve returned that bowl…

Anyone know if this is being addressed in the upcoming patch? Pretty gamebreaking especially considering this is in the main quest line.

#9

When the guard attacked me for not having returned the bowl, I simply ran away and hid. Apparently he didn’t report me since I didn’t end up witha ny wanted status, and the next day or so when I got back he seemed to have forgotten all about it. Had no problem with the mission itself.

Here we go again…yet another bug that I have experienced while playing Kingdom Come Deliverance. I assassinated Urban as he was going to sleep for the night (total silent no one caught me). I unfortunately, had to do this as I was unable to return the relic and he would lick my game up at a loading screen.

#11

Auto correct lock my game up…consequently I killed both guards without raising an alarm. I carried both bodies out of the Monastery and dropped them into the lake outside.

#12

Gonna test this now

  • Can Confirm that this works.
#13

The way I have gotten around the bug to get into the house to speak with Konrad was to simply run into the building while someone was opening the door. After speaking with Konrad I did have to fight the Guard because of the bowl. I was having the issue of the lock up due to the bowl quest, but the guard asking me about the bowl inside the building did not cause the lockup. Fighting the guard did not raise an alarm and no other guards seemed to care. After having left the building, I was able to get back in to speak to Konrad again to finish out the quest as the door was unlocked at this point. Not a fix, but a workaround.

#14

Well I too had Urban attack me. If I kill him, go inside and talk to Konrad he tells me he expected Urban and get an infinite loading screen.
I load earlier save and return the bowl before talking to Urban but he still attacks me. I run away and come back. He is happy to see me but i can’t ask him to let me enter for talking to Konrad.

If i then lockpick while he stands there he catches me and i just tell him secret mission to let me go free. So I cant enter while he is there.
If i go at night and lockpick me in and then talk to Konrad I get infinite loading screen.

I tried the kill guard thing but the moment i lockpick myself in the guard sees me. If i kill him with bow Urban comes down the stairs… He apparently sleeps in the same house.

{EDIT}
Ok… Just going inside in morning (8 am) and shoot an arrow to the second guard his head let 2 villagers who were eating inside flee with Konrad. I could talk to him while he was fleeing…

Maybe it’s not a bug but intended behaviour…

#16

I just get an infinite loading screen after I talk to Urban and he acuses me of not returning the bowl (funny thing is I actually tried to return it back when I was doing that quest and even now but couldn’t…there was no prompt in the crypt to do it and you can’t drop a quest item).

The door has a very hard lock which i can’t even attempt to open.

There is no other known workaround right? I just have to pray they patch it in the next update.

#17

Read the solution in the mainpost :slight_smile:

#18

Not much of a solution for me unfortunately, since after I talk with him I get an infinite loading screen, so he doesn’t even attack me.

#19

Do you agree to go to jail? Or is it just loading the conversation w/e that gives you a loading screen?

#20

When I initiate the conversation with him he accuses me of not returning the bowl and after the dialogue is finished the screen goes black and the loading sign appears…Then nothing happens. I’ve tried it few times yesterday but it was the same scenario each and every time.
