@corbae however, if you still do have the bards quest whioch someone mentioned here, you should still be able to progress this quest.

It seems they are still working on finding the issue here, but at least many others were fixed... Still, of course this game should be 100% refundable if you have this bug and dcant continue

@guest-l210jxyg scroll a bit further op and you will find a dirty fix- someone postet an ign video with a quest you can use to help you open the dorr- if you still have that quest available. @mjschlosseryou could also try that out.

@oz10w you can totally 100% refund the game by right as its broken.German/EU customer right should provide you with enough leverage
They also did some kind of explanation, which is hard to accept, but as I am also working on games (albeit much smaller ones) it IS understandable- the reason for thi sbug happening is not yet known. It isnt that every player has the issue, its just some, and so there have to be certain circumstances leading to thi sissue. these circumsatances are now being checked by the devs, but since nobody yet was able to provide a video link from the first time acepting the mission to the issue, its hard to find.
Just some possible reasons might be:
someone far travelled to buckingham, saved in a wrong spot, went in loud or silent (that ones easy to check) accidently hit one of the 2 NPCs whou should help, was too big a distance away from them, used the wrong weapon, etc etc.
They are probably hard working on finding that issue while also fixing MANY other bugge d quests (as you saw in the notes). Obviously and sadly, it seems they had more luck with other quests.

However you can accept a bards quest in another region to get the door open and story progressing - that depends on wether you wish to continue or refund (I am no Ubi Staff though)

@alessiocanniz what exactly is wrong with asgard?

@heinricht96 I appreciate your response and it was given in more detail then we have from the Ubisoft team. Also, in waiting for them to fix I proceeded through the game and completed everything else that wasn't bugged in this game (there are many other issues too). However, I expect and would like to hear from them what exactly is going on. The fact that others in this chat have been the only help is nice but says more about the Ubisoft team.

The issue still persist where Sigurd and Basim will not help you in opening the door to the longhouse. all they do is stand around and with no way to interact, even if they are next to the door they just stand there. This issues has now been going on for almost a month with no help insight and its very frustration !!!! Cyperpunk has its issues, but at least their team is trying to fix them!!!

@heinricht96 What did you just say? You spent a whole lot of words saying nothing at all. You do not work for ubisoft and have literally no idea what is happening or why.

No we can't refund the game, I was told very rudely by ubi. The bard does not work for some people and who cares if it does the quest is still broken. All of your points are invalid. The quest is broken across ALL platforms if they can't recreate it then they are bad at their jobs. I just do not understand why they can't just let us reset the quest. At this point I just do not care, uninstalled and probably never come back to it or any ubi game.

not working buckingham house doors. lol fix this pls...

c'mon dude this quest is broken ubisoft have update but still suck..

@bigjsmith16 I'm having the exact same problem, I can't progress in the game because of this....has this been resolved?

I've got a glitch at the moment, im at the point where I've have to free the thegns but the one that is in the cage is glitched, the gates already open from my previous explorations and he won't leave it and just keeps saying "open the damn cage will you"

Can this be patched please? I've tried reloading but its not helping- another glitch too is every time I reload eivor is drunk

At the point of rescuing the thegns and the one that is in the cage is glitched.
From my previous explorations the gate is already open and the thegn will not leave and keeps saying "break the damn gate open will you"
I've tried reloading and meditation but its doing nothing. I can't progress through this mission and its really annoying me as this is the only glitch I've had and its fully stopped my progress.

@jjblue2012 Yikes! This is what I'm afraid of... I'm always exploring the world before questing, and every time I find a prisoner locked up I always let them free... so far all of them seem to have come out of the cages... but I haven't yet gone to the area this quest is located. Good to know, now I'll just have to be a jerk on my explorations and NOT let prisoners out of their cages. Ubisoft really needs to fix this, because many people prefer to explore before questing, so if a prisoner is tied to a quest, the doors shouldn't be unlockable until the quest is active.

Brewing Rebellion Long house door won’t open!
Has this issue been fixed yet? I can’t continue, I have gone and done everything else I can possibly do. I have 83hrs game play and power level 321 and can’t do any other missions. Please fix this!!

Greetings everyone,

We're pleased to report that, thanks to your detailed reports and the savegames you've submitted, our developers have been able to isolate this issue and will have a fix implemented in the next patch! Thanks again for all of your support and especially for your patience!

patchhhh pleasee

I also can't secure the longhouse. I've killed everyone in there. Sigurd is in there but just standing around now. The plot won't progress. I've event tried burning it soon lol. I've left and come back. I've gone to Norway and come back. I've changed quests and come back. Nothing seems to secure it. What do I do? I have a video of me in the house with only my 2 allies alive. I've even tried dragging all the bodies outside. Nothing. Help!!!! I've offered all the other storylines as far as can without this oxenefordscire. Not sure what else to do. I don't want to stay again as I've done so much beyond this plot that it'll be a waste of a lot of hours. Is there anyway to fix this one arc without resetting everything. Please.

The main quest seems to have stalled for me because I can't pledge to Oxenefordschire, it's entirely missing from the alliance map. Have I broken something?

Has any other gamers had a glitch with brewing rebellion mission!? I can’t open the longhouse door with basim or sigurd!!! Two character are frozen and don’t move unless I’m fighting... Haven’t been able to play the game since a week after I purchased it... if anyone knows how to fix this please comment!
