UNC: Dead Scientists

Whenever I attempt to Land on the planet Ontarum in the Newton System for the mission: UNC: Dead Scientists my game will show the loading screen for a very long time and then eventually crash out. I have not seen any error messages. I tried looking in ProgramData for log files but don't see anything that stands out.

I've tried it 3 times, with the same experience each time.

System: PC

Purchaser: Steam

OS: Windows 10 Pro

    I had a similar issue with Bring Down the Sky mission. When I tried to enter the main facility I would get a infinate load screen. I verified the game files twice but nothing was found to be missing or currupt.

    So I tried once more to verify the game files, but following that I restarted the PC. I then loaded the same save file and it just started working.

    Honestly not sure if this is a solution or how it fixed itself, but seemed to fix it for me.

  • Not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm having the same problem. I've already done the Cerberus and Hades Dog missions, and I got here by way of just tripping into the system rather than learning about it on Noveria.

  • @Webb-sama I had tried verifying files before but it took a long time and nothing resolved. This time I restarted, then verified (and it found an issue) and then restarted again and it worked
