Leviathan's bug and a suggestion - andibro - 10-11-2016

I found a bug with Leviathan on the event of journey to Site Phi after escaping Site Alpha: sometimes after Leviathan grabbed Simon, it never releases simon and ends up circling forever. So game literally becomes stuck at that point and must be re-loaded.

The bug is likely to only happen when it grabs simon when he is standing near first or second yellow light pole from Phi entrance, as I never meet the bug on the other spots. The bug has already happened about three times as I recall.

Update:
Found other people that meet same problem: http://steamcommunity.com/app/282140/discussions/0/517142892054668672/


I also have a suggestion:
I have finished the game but I would like to revisit certain stage. I don't like if I have to replay the game from beginning. It's better if you guys can provide a Chapter Selection feature after the game is completed (just like in Outlast for example)

FYI I played SOMA from steam on windows 7 64 bit.

Run the SOMADevCMD.bat file and it will let you do a Chapter Select. It is located in SOMA's root folder, which by default, should be C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/SOMA/

Another option is to use the Load Game option from the main menu if the area is somewhat recent, however SOMA (by default) only keeps 20 or 30 of the most recent autosaves.

Thanks. But the game shows a lot of debug message on screen, is there a way to turn them off?

If you press F1, it should bring up the debug menu. Unticking most of the checkboxes should fix that! I'm not at a computer, so I can't tell you which ones.
