> If you’re loading a save where you were already in this state and the game doesn't update, travel away from the area (60 seconds approx.) and return, the game should then update. The game will now recognise if the player has collected the Crew Quarters key card before reaching Chapter 10 and getting the objective 'Find the Crew Deck key'. Not sure when PS5 & XBX patch goes live, but it should be soon if not already. Read the notes and follow the steps they advise! It worked across all of my soft locked saves(4). Not much done on the studder, but hey.baby steps.I can now play the game i was locked out of almost a month ago. Latest patch notes below for those who want to know what they did. So it looks like the soft lock is patched/fixed. I had to follow directional beam, but once I opened door to whatever area I was directed, quest updated in the system, and Dr Kyne is now waiting for me to help him. So found my saves, reloaded and Viola! Strange alien Gyph directional went away and it started giving me 'tendril' quest directionals.

Then follow the quest markers until you reach Kyne's sequence.' This should trigger the proper quest flow.

Go back to the Cantina, then come back to Hunter fight room. > Will be fixed if the current objective is scrambled with unitologist symbols. Kyne not spawning inside Chief Steward’s office.
