Bugs

“Finish Faith-breaker Research” objective is uncompletable and no story missions are available after finishing Act 1

Reload a previous save^[3]

Currently there is only a workaround available, no bugfix from the developer or solution for players who do not have a previous save (other than starting over).

As a result of the above, it is recommended to keep a save after every mission to have a safe rollback point if the bug is encountered.

Reload a save prior to completing the faith-breaker research
Do not complete the research prior to the objective requiring its completion showing up as part of the story and ensure heroes such as Captain Marvel are present on base before completing it.
