first playthrough
After finding LT EDWARDS and finishing Conning Tower, I proceeded to head back to the tram station and headed to Fore Station
(To look for any good loot I may have overlooked).
Exiting the Tram I headed to the right and proceeded through the Cradle operation access door, up the ladder, through the hallway and hit the call button on the elevator..
This is where it went downhill for me.
The elevator took about 4 minutes to load, during I went to see if I could backtrack through Cradle Op door but was denied access. going back up the ladder towards the elevator again I encountered one enemy that popped up after I took a couple of swings at fleshy face "sprawled on the wall next to elevator",
Taking the elevator to the Tram Service room( Where you remove the debre in front of the tram), it auto saves on me and I get a warning over the Terra Nova Speakers saying
"Warning ... Cargo fault in Bay Four. Containment breach detected. Biological anomalies are present. Please use caution."
after 6 seconds you hear
"Obstruction cleared. Resuming normal tram operations."
mind you I have not triggered any display or moved from the front bridge window the entire time.
Nowhere to go but down I headed to the elevator after fighting 3 "spewers" I call the elevator and wait about a minute. The elevator door opens with another spewer (btw, first time through I shot him, backed away and the doors closed. when I opened it again he was gone)
I kill him, and hit the elevator button. It triggers the sqequence where the elevator drops and crashes at Deck 03, outside the Cargo Filtration Command. I proceed through the section with no monsters to fight and reach Cargo Hold.again no monsters, but supplies from when you flee the regenerating Necro were respawned.I proceed through with no necromorphs to the Fore Station door. I enter, and go to the right staircase when One scorpion looking necromorph spawns behind the control panel that calls the tram. Now were full circle, with the door to Cradle Operation locked, with nowhere for me to go.
I think what happened was when I backtracked through the station and hit that first elevator call button the game loaded the story progression that occured your first time through Chapter 5. With all the obstacles already completed your left without the trigger sequence needed for the Tram to come (when your outrunning the RegenNecromorphs)
as thorough as this may be, If there are some questions that could lead to a resolution to this glitch please, ask away.
I replay these games till i pretty much get everything so restarting isnt a big deal for me but I wouldnt want this to happen to someone else who invests what little time they got to play this great series.
