    Yet another missions glitch

    I'm stuck on the mission (can't recall what the name is) it's the one Noore sends you on to stop Paul Depleur from killing her family. I get to the part where you have to climb into the back of the truck, then it black screens and hangs up like that. I can move around, shoot, kill myself with grenades but it's just black. Anybody else have this problem? I can't advance the mission without being able to see lol. Going to try not killing everybody and sneaking into the truck that way, will report back.

    Edit - You can't kill everybody from a distance with a long gun or bow. The truck will inch up and cause the black screen when you get in. Have to sneak around and climb in the truck while it's still backed into the building.

    Yeah I was able to progress through the mission by sneaking into the building, then into the back of the truck while it was still backed in only killing a couple guys. What I was doing prior to this was picking everybody off at a distance and the truck would move forward away from the building. When I would try to get in the truck from inside the building it wouldn't let me, so I'd walk around outside the door and climb in the back of the truck. This was causing it to black screen when the game progressed.

    Wow thanks man! That is exactly whats happening to me, tried so many things...Indeed a space was left between the truck and the warehouse, sp got in from above..black...from the side...black and getting in from behind wasnt even possible! Will try again tonight and let you know the outcome! But thanks for your reply!

    You're the best Worked like a charm! Killed just 4 guys and entered from the back of the truck! Now back to enjoying the game! Thanks again and a lot!!!!

    P.s. strange not many people seem to have this particular bug..

    Thanks for this updated info.
    I had exactly this problem on PS3 - was killing everyone by stealth and it took a while then had this annoying black screen.
    Managed to kill only 2 guys and sneak into the truck and now happily moving forwards.

    Awesome glad it helped somebody. For a second, when it happened to my game, I honestly thought that was going to be it and I wasn't going to be able to finish the game lol.

    Thanks for this, it really helped me !! I replayed the mission 3 times before I gave up and started looking for solution on Internet.
    They have to fix this issue, it's game breaking and causes a lot of frustration. BTW, I'm on PC, which means the issue is present on all platforms.

    A year later and this isn't fixed, but I had luck with the workaround.

    Gf was playing this on the ps4 and ran into the same issue on that mission; if she cleaned the place out then got on the truck after it pulled out, the game black screened, showing symptoms as described above; able to move, throw grenades, even pull up the map, but no game visuals.

    Thanks Blood Type Z, sneaking into the building, killing only a handful of the guards got it working. Really frustrating until we tried this! Thanks.

    Never encountered the issue but because of the context of the mission and objectives I never killed everyone out front and only ever snuck in and got in the truck....

    yep you cant kill everyone in that mission it will notify the truck driver your there and the mission will not continue

    sneak in thru the back of the building , use throwing knives to kill 3 guards , and get in the truck to continue to the City of Pain
