Firestorm GDI Mission 09 Glitch

[Conchord256 0]

I'm playing through the Ultimate Collection of TS Firestorm for the first time and I'm at the last GDI mission.

 

After a few frustrating attempts at moving my small group of Titans and Juggernaughts etc. around the map trying to take out their base, I decide to take a look at a video to see how it's done. I'M SUPPOSED TO GET AN MCV??!!! This has not happened in any of the attempts I've tried. I think it's because the artillery tanks on the other side of the bridges aren't appearing either, so there's nothing to trigger the MCV appearing once they're destroyed.

 

Please let me know if anyone else has had this problem, and if so, how did you fix it. Many thanks in advance.

 

I wasted all that time...

I played that mission about two weeks ago, and it worked fine. I have the TFD version installed, though.

 

You get that MCV once the cyborg commando, the two regular cyborgs and the four artillery pieces have been dealt with. You also get a APC with some infantry if you destroy one of the bridges.

 

If you can't get the MCV after fulfilling those requirements, leave a comment here. I'll upload a save game just after the MCV has appeared.

I played FS a year or two ago. I never had this problem. I used a version of FS that I downloaded from the internet, not Final Decade.

I'll upload a save game just after the MCV has appeared.

I'm not sure that would be necessary. If his problem is that the units you are supposed to destroy aren't spawning, just send a save file from as soon as the mission starts with those units properly spawned. Then he can play the whole mission as intended.

The cyborg commando and regular cyborgs are there, and I can get the APC by destroying one of the bridges, but still no MCV, and no artillery tanks on the other side of the bridge. TaxOwlBear if you have a save file with the MCV in it, that would be very much appreciated. I don't mind if it's right at the start or after the artillery tanks have been destroyed as that's only a couple of minutes into the mission.

Ok, so in about the fifth attempt, everything just randomly decided to appear. The tanks were there, and I now have an MCV. Thanks for your help everyone.

Glad to hear it has been fixed. I've never heard of this bug before, but then again, I haven't played FS all that much.
