BrinkOfSanity Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I thought I'd have to scrap this one after getting stuck in Mirkwood with no apparent workaround. But after joining a friend's game and playing through it together, I have apparently "unglitched" myself. My save now says Chapter 7 pt 1 as opposed to Chapter 5 pt 1. So quite possibly this works for other areas of the game as well. Good luck everyone on your journey to plat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaNiDgE Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I got this glitch how i bi passed it was to quit the game and load in as new character once i passed the spider boss all was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ars Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) I had the captive quest and Mirkwood on, both cleared but no followup quest triggered. What I did was use the teleport point to go back to Rivendell, notice that Bilbo didn't recognize I had finished Mirkwood (chronicler quest), teleported back to the final map on Mirkwood and the boss battle was there a second time. This time I also got to continue. No reloading saves or any of that sort. Edited April 6, 2013 by ars grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahoihoi Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Oh I love this game, I also got stuck in Mirkwood. I freed the captive and quit the game. Next time I started playing the game it told me to free the captive again but he wasn't there anymore and the questlog also stated that he was already freed. http://www.abload.de/img/dsc_0013rls08.jpg http://www.abload.de/img/dsc_00141wsrp.jpg And now I'm stuck because that wall thingy wouldn't let me pass and my companions are like "oh noes, we have to free the elf from the orcs". http://www.abload.de/img/dsc_0016jhsr6.jpg Any tips on how to solve this problem?

ars Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Ouch trigger limbo. Like said earlier try to switch chars, otherwise you need to join a co-op or you're restarting the playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azlanslayer Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I also got that glitch once. The only way was to join a co-op game near chapter or on that part of the chapter. Don't join anyone that's higher than the chapter you're on otherwise trophies will not pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funk_You Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I've just now encountered this glitch, and have tried reloading, quick travelling to Rivendell, and online with someone else's game, although I watched them run into the same glitch! This game is doing my head in. Does anyone else have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So annoying. I don't want to start again Edit: after getting past my stuck point online my save game does not load!!!

Cycling Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) Does anyone have a save file from a point right after or right before Mirkwood that can be shared here? Edited May 3, 2013 by Cycling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Despair Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 F**king "Mirkwood glitch" ambushed my coop play!

From what I've heard they gave up on the game because if the poor sales. The glitch can be sorted with the coop fix though it works for me after glitching twice. Once solo and the second time playing online but I got lucky the third time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Despair Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Yeah i suppose playing with someone online seems to be the only solution for this since i can't try this solo anymore. It just freezes at the loading screen after i launch game no matter what..... That happened after i played online with strangers at first Mirkwood stage and before that i was at Chapter 5 part 2. Now i'm suddenly Chapter 5 part 4 even though no story progress occurred online ........ Just need to check online once in a while i guess, if someone would be at Mirkwood or at least near it.

Fad0m Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I got this glitch how i bi passed it was to quit the game and load in as new character once i passed the spider boss all was fine. Got that yesterday night and I did the same thing. Quit and reload again and everything went back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake2410 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Easiest way to prevent it is to always create a new save when playing co op, and also make sure that when you first load up the game go in-game and immediately exit to the main menu and manually load up your save. It'll fix the bugging of missions that happens when the game first loads up your save. I did that on all my playthroughs and always made a backup save when prompted after choosing mp. Never once ran into the Mirkwood glitch that way, nor did I ever lose a quest in my log. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Fly Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) Got that yesterday night and I did the same thing. Quit and reload again and everything went back to normal. At first I was confused but after seeing this thread it seems I encountered the same glitch. Thanks for this, I'll try to reload 'till it works and I'll see. I really enjoy the game so far so it would be a shame for me to stop there. EDIT : Okay. Looks like I'm screwed up. I'll retry to replay the whole region area where the spider boss battle is and if it doesn't work then I'll give up with this game.

Mimming Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 To fix this glitch: (It happened to me) Walk all the way back to the start of that 'level' Walk into the 'wall' where the previous area ended, and this one began The start of the level 'triggers' will activate You will need to play that 'level' again, but it will no longer be glitched Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Fly Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I'm definitely screwed up. The quest apparently restarted to : "Find his house in the forest" and I am at the boss battle. The only solution I found was to count on the multiplayer part. Fortunately I found a multiplayer match in the 5-4 section but unfortunately I have been quicked very quickly because when I joined they were in a battle and I had first to assign my points to competences and such so I couldn't help them ! Well I have enough of this **** and I decided to stop here ! This game is way too glitchy for me ! I won't spend more time on this one, and especially when you have to play the whole game 3 times for the plat' ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGarnigle Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) I went back to Gorin and every time I talk to him it's the same dialogue as when I first met him. I can't talk to Belaram at all either, in fact I can just run right through him; I think that may be the root of the problem here. Also I can continually fight the boss now - she just keeps respawning - but it doesn't help, I can't progress. Also tried using a different character, and sure enough it reset the quest in my log, but it still didn't help - it now says ''Find the home of Radagast'', instead of just having nothing in my quest log. What a mess, avoid this game at all costs, even aside from these glitches, it's not a good game. Now am I to understand if playing with someone in coop doesn't fix this, then I have to start the game again on Heroic from level 1?

loveaya Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) Fuck this game. I wanted to help my friend by online coop now i'm also stuck at mirkwood. And the save-data can only be copied within 24 hours. Now i have to wait 24 hours and prey that his progress hasn't glitched my progress. He didn't see the dragon-knight boss so his progress has been glitched at the end of mirkwood. Edited June 2, 2013 by loveaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plisken1979 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) glitch at Mirkwood happened to me also, if anyone has a save file for that section on Normal and is willing to help please message me. edit: got past Mirkwood thanks to a random player, now I know the method to avoid any more glitches I should be fine.

dbp2005 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Hey everyone, I need a co-op partner who has a save file right before or on Chapter 5 Part 1. I ran into the Mirkwood glitch on my Heroic playthrough and can't get past the cave part after defeating the first boss in Chapter 5.

cperezprg Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Ouch, I also got this glitch yesterday on Heroic. I Will try these workarounds, but nothing fixed it on my Normal playthrough but joining random co-op game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PratikH Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 This happened to me when I died in Mirkwood on legendary difficulty. When the level reloaded, I had "Kill Wulfrun" as my quest goal even though I was more than halfway through the chapter. Reloading the game wouldn't help, reloading the save file wouldn't help, and other supposed fixed posted online wouldn't help. My advice: DO NOT DIE in Mirkwood, no matter what. I was an idiot and got cocky, thinking I could take down three heavy orcs by myself while Eradan and Andriel were already down. What's weird is that I died in Mirkwood a lot in my Normal run and nothing bad happened. I don't think I died in Mirkwood in my Heroic run because I was abusing the hell out of Explosive Bolt, so it didn't happen then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
