Need Help A reason to hurry

Nelsonliang

Master Mariner
After sleeping with a lady in the brothel, she told me about a sergeant rush to a cove some where in a hurry. I roam around the island and encounter a party of soldier with an officer. The officer only said that he is looking for a runaway slave and ask who i am and whether i see any one suspicious. Not other option then saying no.
How do i proceed then??? The quest seem to have a time limit.

Many thanks, i guess i will have to roam around looking for the right one. On Steam community, i google translate a russian guide, here is the translation:

The reason for the rush

After a pleasant stay in a brothel talk with the girl. She tells us about the captain, who recently such a hurry in some bay, that "almost already forgot his pants." We leave in the sea and check all the coastal zone in the presence of the necessary us the captain. In one of the bays you will run up to the officer with a detachment of soldiers and ask about who you are?

Tt wasn't any helpful to complete the mission. So can you help me with specific detail walk through? Currently i got that mission on Barbados so i hope it will not be too hard.

I'm afraid i don't know how to help with it. Most likely your quest log should give some hint as to which spot on the island on Barbados. I haven't done that quest so this is my best guess for you.
 
There is no hint, just a short description. Even the dialog with the girl give me no hint.

Description: a cute girl just blabbed out that an officer from the garrison was hurrying to some cove so much that it had even distracted him from his fun, perhaps it worth investigating?

The dialog are mainly joke about the officer. Though there is a particular spot that i thought it's a hint. Something about go to his house and telling his wife. But i have no idea where his house is. I investigated the house in the city, there are three type. Accessible with or without occupant and locked house.
I tried to go to the three beaches on foot and on ship but nothing except a random group of patrol. Tried to go to the cave. but nothing inside. So now i'm kinda stuck with it.
 
Same thing here. In Jamaica. There are only two shores. In one of them is a patrol. Everything is the same, but no solution.
 
When the quest is failed, the quest log is like this: "Perhaps i just got way to the offended girl. I shouldn't have thought up what was missing".

I have no idea what this is supposed to mean.

I don t know if this quest it is broken, but some quests are broken

I got stuck for a long period with the quest "Southern Bay". On Turks I picked up some pirates left ashore by one pirate captain Bruno the Cap on schooner Sea Devil who deals in slaves who took their ship. Never found that pirate, the quest log had no hints and i didn't remembered the dialogue maybe there were some hints there. After a year or so i turned their leader who was a passenger on my ship to a governor so the quest will go away. During Pirate Saga I arrived again on southern shore and there were some guys walking on shore. When talking to them they were thanking me for taking them on board. They are still there walking around.
Another thing. When I got a full crew, no spare place and I had some business at Mosquito bay Pirate Saga Quest, there were some shipwrecked guys. I couldn't take them there was no space so i left them food. When coming later (there is a month time limit, i took them, but at the first port their leader comes to me and thanks me again for taking them or something and everything is locked, no way to enter even the tavern so the quest is broken If you save after taking them on board and have much older saves you are doomed and have to replay a lot.
Another thing is a quest that i did already in a previous attempt before restarting form beginning. A captain approaches me and invites me for talks of his ship. it was hot raid or something like this. A pirate ship with gold. This time when the same thing happened, i didn't immediately go to his ship, but i left the town for a few minutes to the jungle and when i came back i went to his ship or any ship that was in the harbor, but nothing. i didn't reload because i thought this is a regular side quest like the passengers or escorting type, but since hen after 2 years or something, although i talk to every captain in every port, never again there was another proposition like that one. I kind of regret this because it was a very cool quest. I didn't even failed that quest because there wasn't even an entry in the log. The thing is this game is merciless.
 
This game still have translation errors that need to be corrected, i hope the translation errors are responsible for broken quest

In-game experience show that saving before doing anything is very important. I always save after i docked, get into tavern, ask for job, buying stuff, explore cave (higher luck = better treasure so i always try to have luck maxed out before looking for treasure), buying treasure map (there are chance that you brought a fake map without any chance to get your money back) and before finishing quest. So maybe when we encounter broken quest we can reload and avoid them, or try different approach.

There are a discussion on Steam that offer guide, so you can try to look for help there. Steam Community :: Sea Dogs: To Each His Own
If the info on the english guide isn't enough, try the russian one. Google translate can help.
 
Don't care about money or fake treasure maps. Don't waste time for little things. I've amassed a huge fortune and I am in the Pirate Saga Quest (april 1657) so I am sure there are more things to come. I have like more than 2.500.000 pessos, more than 11.000 dubloons, over 3.000 gold nuggets, over 1.500 silver nuggets, many hundreds of each diamonds, emeralds, rubies, amber, amethyst, platinum etc, over 20 chests of dubloons, 4 chests of treasures, over 2000 large pearls, over 5000 small pearls etc. I don't care anymore about small things in chests. It's the story and the quests that matter. Some are broken and should be fixed, or at least let us know they are broken.
 
Well, i guess you should start the habit of saving often before and after finishing a quest. As far as i concerned, i can't finish "a reason for hurry" within 24 hours in game time. So i simply reloaded a save before getting the quest.
 
The problem is the time wasted trying to solve a quest that may be broken. This game is addicting and very time consuming. Wasting an hour or more for nothing and reloading is still bad.
I wonder if anybody else had these quests:
"Southern Shore" and "Shipwrecked".
 
The game was also quite buggy. Sometimes crash for no reason or somehow the quest got stuck at some point. So the only salvation is a previous save.
 
I am having the same problem with this quest as Nelsonliang. I did everything. Went all over the island. Talked to the patrol. Went to the cove. When there are Indians in the cove you get the message in quest line "nothing but a bunch of windbags there". When there is no one in the cove "Perhaps i just got way to the offended girl. I shouldn't have thought up what was missing". I also tried going by ship but it didn't help.

I was hoping it might be something like the Flying Dutchman in the CoaS. I remember it had to sink you twice before you can take it down. I hope it's not just a bug. I will report if I manage to solve it.
 
Unfortunately. Now I am pretty sure there is u bug in this quest.

The quest ends in midnight. And it seems you have to wait midnight with the army patrol. When something starts to happen and change the game crashes.

From the Russian forum using google translate:

The reason for the rush:
Spoiler:
After sex again talk with the girl.

Start the quest is generated at the time of the conversation with bordelmaman.

Prerequisites:
- Talk to the girl after sex
- Find the right or visit the bay to the day shift
- The search for the patrol to conduct one without abordazhnika
- Preferably you should have a variety of gems (emeralds, diamonds) 30 pieces or money.

The desired bay with a patrol can be searched by sea or on foot through the jungle.

To place a positive conversation with patrol piano and rank and fortune, and the most common Randy.

They came into the bay the sea:
The most optimum variant of passage of the quest - at the same time we will avoid meeting with a pirate orderly, which is waiting in the bay corrupt patrol.
Depending on what we have in the pockets (stones or money) from the correctly chosen dialogue and randomness, you can get a treasure map (if there are stones in your pocket), a tip at the ship with cargo on a tip-off gubernatorial treasures kill patrol.

They came into the bay through the jungle:
At the entrance of the bay to the desired location, the conversation will not only patrol, but with a pirate orderly.
Depending on what we have in the pockets (stones or money) from the correctly chosen dialogue, credibility, luck and randomness, you can get a map of the treasure (if there is a stone in your pocket), a tip-off to the ship with the cargo, tip tip-off on governor's treasures, kill patrol.

Dispose of information can be obtained in different ways:
1. Go and find the treasure, if you get a treasure map.
2. en- terprise with a cargo ship. We are looking for him on the function "swim to ..." on the same island.
3. Chest fleece Huber agreed with the waiter.
4. Kill the patrol
5. To report to the governor of the city of salable patrol. The result of the conversation with the governor will depend on the reputation of the HS:
- With a positive turnip for the information you can get valuable gifts from the governor. The gift depends on your actions during a conversation with the patrol and what you are paying with cash or patrol with stones.
- A negative turnips your hero will attempt to arrest, and the residence of the ship will have to fight to get. The ship your boatswain tells you about the confusion in the city, and that they are in this turmoil could clean out the chests moneylender. Your prize will be money or money ....... + Prize depends on your actions during a conversation with the patrol and what you are paying with cash or patrol with stones. When finished, the ship will have to escape from the shelling of the fort.

In various ways the prizes / gifts / hoards further SG will wait danger:
- When leaving the residence can attack OZGi
- When entering the globalku attack pirate ship
- When you exit the cave after the capture of the treasure - attack OZGi

I wonder if there is a Russian speaker that can explain more, because I don't understand much. I also don't understand how come these quests are ok in the Russian version that was released years ago, but seems to be broken in the English version.
 
Unfortunately. Now I am pretty sure there is u bug in this quest.

The quest ends in midnight. And it seems you have to wait midnight with the army patrol. When something starts to happen and change the game crashes.
The game always crash randomly. My worst experiencing it was when i was saving after i got an Indian men (big ship), it crash and corrupt the save (wasted 5 boarding battle including 2 hard boarding). So try again and share the result, . Ad5ia shared a guide translated from Russian, so i'll try the quest again on Barbados due to its small size.
 
When you looking for patrol your character must be alone, without fighters.
You could take a profit from this quest only in case of corrupt patrol.
If the patrol would be honest you will get nothing.
 
I have 1 mils pesos, no companion. The only patrol i encounter is a standard patrol. I got to a junction road with a well, it's a entrance to a cave and get in the cave. I found some chest with items and a group of 4 pirates, only one of them will talk to me. He told me it's my lucky day and told me to scram, and he gave a joke on bringing a full purse tomorrow. Further conversation with him resulting the same outcome of telling me to scram. I attacked and kill the pirates but the quest doesn't update so can i presume this party of pirates has nothing to do with the quest?
 
I finally got this quest, though the ending wasn't so fascinated as described in the Russian translation. But i'll share the outline of the quest for all who want to try it.
1/ dismiss any companion that is following you
2/make sure to carry around a large sum or a large amount of gems.
3/ Wander around various beaches (or cave too just to be sure) until you find a group of patrol, approach them. If they are the culprit, the officer will tell you that you are late, then a drunken pirate looking guy will run up and initiate conversation. You will have two choice. One will lead you to fight all of them. The other i don't know since i didn't save before this happened. The fight was hard but winnable as long as you keep the melee fighter in front of you so the musketeer can't hit you. If you see an opening, rush the musketeer and kill him so you can fight without fearing a shot at the back.
4/ after you killed them, the quest log will update. To end the quest you have to go to the governor and report it. You won't get any reward since this ending is considered as a failure.
But i got a very good sword from the fight so i don't regret it. Maybe next time i'll do it differently.
 
"A reason to hurry"
wird quest, should be in walkthrough

1) talking with brothel lady after sex, about officer (but save game before choosing girl with brothel owner)
2) go on ship - firts F2 and remove boardes from officers positions
3) go to cabin - take a lot of money around 200 000 pesos and 30 emeralds (emeralds it should be, not any other gems)
4) sail to bay/cove/beach on the island, land (alone).
5) if there is no soldier patrol, sail to another bay/cove/beach
6) talk to patrol - if they say they are looking for the convicts - it is regular patrol, not the "mission one" - (maybe a bug). I think the best option here is to reload save before choosing the girl and have sex one more time...
7) the right patrol will give you this dialogue options like in picture
a) start the transaction
b) start fight with 4 soldiers (officer, 2 swordsman, rifleman)
c) stop the conversation - and never finish this quest

first option is most interesting
8) if you pay money - they say sth about governors valuables, give you some password and reply - go to governor's residence
9a) you can speak with governor about bad soldiers - he will give you a treasure map as a reward
9b) you can speak with governor's servant in next room - password reply - and....5 dublon chest and 5 treasure chest land in your inventory!!! ooo so heavy!!!!
10) Go outside with map or treasures - 3 pirates will approach (before leaving mansion you can add your boarders to give them part of treasure (you are overweight) and let them assist you in fight)
11a) give back map or treasures - quest ends, but...
11b) show them finger and fight - quest continues
12c) go to global map and after few seconds you will see purple sails on the horizont, "mission ship" - pirates will atack you - once it was a frigate, once corvette - I board the ship, duel with captain with funny conversation - nothing special in the cabin - quest ends

if you don't give the map to pirates you will find same treasure where the map leads and then you will be atacked by pirates, 3 of them, not the ship

8) alternatively - if you pay with emeralds the officer will give you treasure map, go to governonr (in this way there is no option to speak with governor's servant and) and give him map, he will give you just a sword, not a special one. Still you will be approached by pirates, because you have the map, still you can go for treasure
8) altenative 2 - if you kill soldiers you will NOT find map in their bodies - then if you report to governor (in this way there is no option to speak with governor's servant and) you will be accused of acting badly

I thnik that is all...
Should be in walkthroug - nice mission, but how we can know that we should go for it without boarders and with 180 000 - 200 000 pesos or 30 emeralds? How we can know that sometimes it can be spoiled if we found "normal" soldier patrol...
