Operation Final Fury: 'Roid scanning mission bug?

Post by X3RLysander »

I'm currently doing the asteroid scanning part of the OFF storyline, and seem to have hit a bit of a brick wall. I've scanned every asteroid in the sector, and seem to have found the 3 "high yield" ones (2x36 yield silicon 'roids and 1x27 ore 'roid), yet the mission objective hasn't updated. The guidance is still telling me to "Find High Yield Asteroid" but there are no more left in the sector to scan. Have I broke it or am I just missing something glaringly obvious as usual?

One salient point might be that one of my explorer m5's scanned a number of the asteroids in the sector earlier on in the game, although afaik none of them were the ones needed for the mission.

Also, what is the final reward for OFF anyway, so far i've gained nothing but a sense of frustration and boredom. so if it's not all that good I might as well not bother with it. Flying hundreds of km around a needlessly large sector while swatting down endless swarms of khaak interceptors isn't my idea of a good time, certainly not for the measly 300k they're paying me for it... :evil:

Sorry if this has been mentioned/resolved elsewhere, but as this forum doesn't have the best search function in the world you'll just have to forgive me :P

one of the asteroids does not show up on the normal sector view modes and it can take a bit to find it.. it took me a while.

are you sure you have scanned them all ??

Ohh perhaps I haven't... although I think my explorers went over that sector pretty thoroughly searching for the south gate, I gave them an explore radius of 200+, but maybe they missed a spot. There's 3 'roids to the right of the east gate that don't show up on the sector map unless i zoom out, but they are all scanned. Are there any others?

Ta for the reply.
