How to finish timelines?

Post by LetMeIn11 »

So I completed all graphs(inclluding 0 one) and I have at least 1 star in all missions, I also found Mitsune and I gave her required components. She said she will contact me later but even after replying some of the missions she doesn't do that. What am I supposed to do?

There is a spoiler board for these kind of questions...

did you do the missions on her mission board as well? (5 missions in total, those are independent of the graph progression)

Yes, but there are only 4 of them for me there. I have 4 stars in Asteroid smashing and rescue operation(hauler ship), and 5 stars in rescue operation(technician) and rescue operation(fighter). Do I need 5 stars in in all these missions to open the 5th one?

You never need more then one star in order to progress. The total number of missions on the "hidden board" are 5.
What might be more crucial is to talk to all npcs with yellow on their clothes - especially to the two split females. This will eventually trigger all of them waiting for the great door (where you entered the hub when starting the timelines the first time) which will then lead to the end of the DLC.

You know what? I think I'll move this over to the Spoilers forum, since it contains literally nothing but Spoilers. :D

Every yellow NPC replies with their default one-liners(including split women) and the terran girl doesn't leave the missions interlink since graph 4, and I just improved my score in the resuce(hauler) and still nothing. It seems like it bugged out and I cannot progress. I will open a tech support ticket

Damn it, I had to replay 3 regular missions + 2 terminuses before Mitsune contacted me back. Now I'm stuck in a white room. Mitsune tells "It's too late to go back", Pa: "The only way is the way forward", Sa: "This place creeps me out". The bed like thing is not interactable. What am I supposed to do here? I'm loosing my patience.

There's a hidden way to progress further, similar to the room you found before.

If i remember it correctly - i'm really getting old, not clearly remembering like three hours ago: to the left of the bed, go forwards. I think there's also a black line on the floor, you should be able to follow.

Thank you!!! So after meeting the Sohnen and the Mitsuno neutralization is this finally the end? Have I unlocked everything I could in this mode? Is this a resolution to the story? I'm confused because at the beginning I knew: "You were kidnapped to do some missions" and now I know "You were not kidnapped, you were literally created to do the missions! Now go and DO SOME MISSIONS!!!!". Is this the whole plot? :D

I also can’t contact Mitsuno in any way.

This is the most annoying DLC ​​ever released for the game. I don't understand, will I need to start a new game in order to receive rewards for the broken plot when it is fixed, or will the rewards for escaping from the Station be added to the existing game?

Been there... Just repeat one mission (any) from the main interface and she will contact you in the beginning of the mission, after few minutes. For me last one from Graph 5 did the trick. Did you finish all Graphs, since this is necessary?

If you already gave her the 3 components and been told to wait for her message, go do the last mission on Graph 6(the earth vs xenon one). The message will trigger once you moved to phrase two of the mission (you take control of the dragonfly). Then just quit back to the Nexus.

I completed the final missions of schedules 4 and 5. I also completed several ordinary missions in schedules for which I did not have a single star.

I completed the missions of her personal schedule with at least 1 star. I only have 4 missions there. I've talked to each character at the station several times - they have nothing to tell me.

Yeah, just DO MORE MISSIONS!!! :D

In my case it was:

1. Mitsuno rescue(hauler) - 3 times
2. Mitsuno asteroid smash - 2 times
3. Impeded extraction - 1 time
4. Graph 5 Terminus - replayed it till completion and nobody contacted me like guys above describe.
5. Graph 2 Terminus - finally get contacted in the middle of the mission.You need to still complete it without exiting via a menu or she won't appear.

Fantastic! I managed to contact Mitsuno!

... in order to go into the next white room, talk with Sonen about nothing and hear that my work is important. And that's all. Go ahead, guy, do more missions...

This DLC is not only worth the money - it's not even worth the attention!

On my hidden mission board I have 6, screenshot to prove: https://i.imgur.com/o7zPN9J.jpeg

BTW, does anyone know how to get the "Grandmother" achievement? It says "Complete the Timelines Epilogue", but I've been through the white room and talked to the Sohnen and I don't have this.
