I appreciate you listening to my rant.
I haven't personally tried another difficulty during my Manhunts because I completed all of Neptune on Hard, as well as all of Venus except Darpa. Combine that with the actual message in the map for Darpa, and there's no reason to believe that suddenly Challenging is the only difficulty that can work with it. I'll give it a try later today if this other idea doesn't work. I'm thinking my original completion status didn't get credit. I remember running through the original Story mode and a door was supposed to open with NPCs spawning from it. The NPCs spawned behind the door but the door didn't open, so I couldn't progress and had to bail out and restart the mission. I wonder if my status got bugged out that time and now it thinks I never completed on Story originally. So I'm going to have a friend who hasn't run it yet in Story pull me into their instance and run it with them, then I'll re-run in my solo instance for the Manhunt and see what it does.

OK, last update: Finally got credit for it. While I was waiting for my friend to get on, I decided to just go old school. I dropped my global difficulty to Normal, and reset Darpa mission to Story mode. I carefully ran through it hoping the door bug wouldn't happen. I completed it. I then logged out and back in. Set the Darpa level to Normal (the minimum the text says) (Global difficulty is still Normal at this point), and ran it again. This time I had the "Exit to DC" interaction after the bioreactor cutscene. I had not been getting the "Exit to DC" prompt all the other runs. I exited to DC, and after respawn in the BOO, I got the Manhunt investigation pop-up, and Venus status is now updated.
So clearly there are some finicky interactions happening with this Mission in the Manhunt, and I guess if it doesn't get fixed for real, hopefully people find this post and can try some of these things to get unstuck. I think the key might be the "Exit to DC" floating panel next to the airlift platform after the bioreactor cutscene. It just wasn't there on any of the other runs that didn't give credit.
Good luck with this, Agents!
just did Pentagon the most annoying mission ever with that drone that can hit you wherever you take cover. and guess what ? now I have to play it again back to back to complete the manhunt requirement which is only reason i was doing it in the first place. thanks alot makers of this game honestly i liked this game at first but the more I play it the more I get pissed off. it ******g sucks.
I too have had some problems with the manhunt. i think with your case you have not done the mission before so it don't count. sorry just seen your post. i just got it done was hard going through solo. some missions don't complete if it has not been done before or if its restricted and some other crap.
I ran the pentagon mission solo on normal thrn left for DC and it didn't count BUT last night ran it again then the labs with a friend on normal and the pentagon mission has counted towards manhunt but the labs did not so I plan on running the labs again tonight and hopefully it will workOriginally Posted by fknM3R0 Go to original post
