Can’t Unlock the Castle Settlement | Forums

[GearHound]

Hey chillout8199,

The settlement is meant to stay greyed out.

The settlement might be supposed to be grayed out, but I doubt very much that the Kelso "7 survivors" cut scene is meant to be Replayable. Seriously would it actually cause you guys harm to have an official statement to link to on this?

wtf is this thread still on the front page?

there are legit bug threads getting buried--granted many are redundant, but ffs when reddit has better topic organization and prioritization of bugs you done ***t up. lock this

Hi guys,

Just to clarify, after doing the mission with Kelso, this Settlement will stay greyed out, as it's the part of the in-game story.

Hey chillout8199,

The settlement is meant to stay greyed out.

It was green in my game earlier but when I tried to fast travel it dumped me back where I started. The map showed an exclamation mark and said “talk to agent Kelso” but when I got there there was no one to be seen. The basement hatch had the “talk to agent Kelso” prompt on it which is weird from a UX point of view as there was nothing to suggest that’s what the player was meant to do and then doing this gave a cutscene and nothing after that.

I was expecting more main missions but there are no more on the map (no idea if I have done them all or if I have some missing) but there are strongholds which say difficulty - story. I’m at 87% and have Roosevelt & Capitol(?) to go but as I say the game doesn’t make it clear what’s going on at all.

Sorry to bump this, I’ve just got to this point in the game and was confused - it appears the latest patch messed up the fast travel part.

3 weeks later after a patch has been adressed to fix it. I still have this issue where the place is greened out, (Its supposed to be gray right?), Im unable to fast travel to it (When I do, I get put in a loading screen and it pops me out where I just was), and the 'Speak to Agent Kelso" is still there. Please fix this.

This isnt the issue, read through the replies, we get its supposed to be a dead zone, but there are issues around that. Cant Fast Travel to it, its green when its supposed to be grayed out, and we still have objective markers here.

No clue if this is still happening for some people other than myself, but I'm still seeing the Castle Settlement greyed out. Though after several patches when it was said it was fixed, it did stop allowing me to go into the cellar and see Calso's angry face. Now the South gates are closed and nothing else.

Oh, wanted to add, just solo'd the non-invaded Jefferson on story mode and then on hard, as I do recall that being part of the story. Still no change to the map. On a side note, I have completed all the missions and side missions by now, just staring at a grey settlement :P

If you “ know “ the Castle Settlement is supposed to unlock later, I ask how you know that? What is the source of your information?

If you look into your progression in esc, you will see a number of side missions and projects missing, it is becasue the castle settlement is bugged but probably gives you those side misisons as well as projects.

The Castle is supposed to be greyed out. If you go to the White-house, and look at the front door, you'll see there are only 2 Settlements. The Campus, and The Theater. The Castle is a dead zone now, thanks to DC-62 chemical attack.

I dont think the caslte settlement is supposed to be greyed out, i think its supposed to be playable and is just a bug, the proof is that in your progression tab, all agents are missing a percentage of side missions as well as projects, likely coming from the caslte settlement.

Any official word on this?
