No aurora yet, either, after 3 more nights. I'll keep trying. Did you go back outside and talk to Methuselah? There should be a guy camped outside the dam now.

Ruruwawa Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 No Methuselah in my world yet. Did I miss a step? I'm definitely on the "enter the dam at night during an Aurora" step of the story, and Jeremiah has nothing more to say to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stapeliad Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 And you touched the elevator button and got the Mission Updated notification? If you wait for night the aurora will never come, you have to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have slept since then, during the day in one of the trailers by the dam. I've been staying up all night in the junk-strewn yard in front of the dam to watch for Methusela and the Aurora. Nada.

Wow..... that REALLY stinks. And you are so close to the end too.... I'm completely out of ideas, maybe try touching the lock to the control room too, see if that does anything.

Ruruwawa Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 what is supposed to happen? I didn't know anything was amiss, other than this taking a loooong time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stapeliad Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 The aurora is supposed to come back, and you can get into the control room and use the elevator. And Methuselah is there too, he just talks a bit and shares his fire... he doesn't ask you to bring him anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruruwawa Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Well, damn. Sure hope I'm not bugged again... it's taken such a long time to get to this point. I guess I'll try the control room door itself but that seems pretty unlikely. Will already did that in the cutscene, would we have to do it again?

stapeliad Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 I don't know.... I seriously feel your pain. The elevator button was what finally worked for me. I was sleeping inside the dam when the aurora came back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stapeliad Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 @Ruruwawa did you sleep and wake up in the middle of the night? That's when the aurora appears. It never appears by waiting for it while awake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I tried sleeping a couple hours into the night and woke to the aurora & Methusela. Phew! Pretty tired atm, so I'll try to finish this off tomorrow. Thanks so much for the hint!

stapeliad Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 Oh excellent! I'm glad it worked. When I first saw the aurora I wanted to watch for it like i watch the sunsets, but it never appeared unless I slept and woke in the middle of the night. I did stay up all night to watch it fade once.... in daylight it is still there too, faintly, until you go in a building or sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrasador Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 So getting that aurora to show up is kinda like sleeping in one hour increments to get a snow storm to disappear....oh this game....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
