    Alright. Explain the Shaeffer manhunt like I'm five.

    I keep starting the Bardon Shaeffer manhunt. Then when I get to the gate, it's "Take down Deloris Jones".

    What the heck am I doing wrong?

    You are selecting the wrong mission? If you are seeing the hunter ambush people you are in the right mission, if you are seeing BT and cleaners you are in the wrong mission.

    Dont know what els to tell you other than triple check in the map if you switched from manhunt to normal by mistake

    There's no mission option button at the bottom of the screen, similar to when you switch between invaded mode and normal? Have you ever done the base mission with that character before?

    Yes. I switch it to manhunt. It says "Take down Bardon Shaeffer". Yellow manhunt emblem and all. I fast travel there and run to the gate and it says "Take down Deloris Jones". I go in and get war hounds and Black Tusk.

    I go back out, set it up again, It says it's the Shaeffer manhunt and changes to Deloris at the chain link gates.

    Maybe its just another weird behaviour/bug and u need to unlock the Schäffer-Mission in the season lvl tree. Did u unlock it yet? Maybe its blocked till then.

    Yeah. I unlocked it in the season reward track. I never played any of it before though. Maybe it won't let me since I never killed any of the LTs?

    Figured it out. I have to set up the mission ON Coney Island. If I set up the mission, difficulty and directives from DC and fast travel, it gets reset to Deloris every time. I have to change everything at the gates.

    Good to know. I'm doing my run through on a 100% fresh account to see about proving or disproving some claims people have made lately. Now I'll know how to work around that if I encounter it.

    It's buggy on the island too. I had to try a couple times to get the change to stick. I got video this time if you insist. lol

    I finally got my Shadowplay to record the right monitor but not the way any user should have to. I had to physically unplug them and switch the plugs around on the GPU. Nvidia needs some tongue lashing too. lol

    Now I have some kind of weird audio issue. Might be the mic on the air mouse. I've been trying to run a mission with an air mouse btw. To say it's difficult would be the understatement of the century. hahaha

    It was a very weird set up for that mission. My buddies and I had trouble like you mention the 3 times I ran it (only once was "for me", the others were just tagging along with buds).
