The Rescue quest

Ok so after I completed the main thread of the game my daughter ran off into the hobbe cave located I believe in Rookridge. Anyways, I was going through and I had rescued her but when I go up the ladder to escape the cave which is the current task in the quest she does not follow me up the ladder. When I looked at the quest the current task is still to escape the cave. I tried probably 10 times to get that kid to come up the ladder and she won't follow. So, anyone else have this problem?

Mine went perfect, older brother's was glitched and kid wouldn't follow him up the ladder. I dunno why it worked for me and not him, we're using the same 360 and the same game.

Re: The Rescue quest

either wait for a new patch or just let the kid die.

In any of my games I haven't gotten any bad glitches..

Re: The Rescue quest

My kid follows me up but stays in the shack and I'm unable to finish the quest as well. So I just killed my wife and the quest disappeared. Problem solved!

Re: The Rescue quest

I had the glitch too - my kid wouldn't come up the ladder with me. I reloaded the quest and this time I thought I'd be clever and go back out the way I came in. That didn't work (tried to go through the cave entrance and was told I'd lose all my progress), but I did run into a bunch of Hobbes right near that entrance, so I killed them and then went back outt he way the quest wanted me to, killing all the rest of the hobbes along the way. That time it worked. So my guess is that it will glitch if you haven't killed every single hobbe in the cave?

Can others who've glitched try this out and confirm/disprove? Now I just want to know. If I'm right, then it's an easy solution that saves you losing your kids.

Not weird, but I'd say definitely in the minority.

I am stuck on this glitch really bad. She stays in the shack. I've reloaded it, my wife had died in the cave or with the assassins outside the cave, it does not help. I have tried reloading it, but it puts me back at the beginning, if I go do something else will my child die? Also, I never had to find my wife. We were searching for a new house at the time, so I never lost her. I had just relocated her to Brightwood Farm, so I tried changing my marital home back to Serenity behind the Demon Door where my child ran away from, but she still ended up stuck in the damn shack. Whether my wife dies or not it still says I'm leaving my child behind. So I'm stuck in Rookridge. :( I guess I can try starting another quest, but I don't want my child to die. Any ideas, cuz I've reloaded 4-5 times. Help!!:realmad::'(

Re: The Rescue quest

This quest has not initiated for me, I have beaten the game, and have played after for quite some time, I have 4 kids in one family, I think the reason why is that I live in the homestead behind the demon door

Re: The Rescue quest

ok, so i ran into a crap load of glitches during this quest. my family lives behind the demon door in oakfield. when i went to accept the quest, my son, who supposedly ran off into the hobbe cave was still at home, although i couldnt interact with him. so i went into the cave looking for him and i found him standing right next to the cage, lol... not funny, telling me to let him out:wacko: so i opened the empty cage and he started following me on his own but got stuck on a corner so i had to use the "follow" expression. and of course when i reached the ladder, he didnt zone with me and hubby was nowhere to be found either.
i tried a second time and here is what i did and it worked:
-do not use the follow expression
-wait for your kid to catch up with you before you round a corner. it seems that he/she will run the shortest distance to you
-and last, make sure your kid is right behind you when you exit to Rookridge

I hope this will help a few of you guys, im really a bit sad about this glitch but i love this game too much to put it away, yet
good luck
Tethy
