Every now and then, I die, and instead of just getting back up and risking a wound, The game loads, and I'm back in the dream sequence getting told by some guy with a hat that I just "saw the future of how I will fall" or whatever. Then I have to restart the mission.

what the hell?

Hello,
If this happens when you still have Resurrectors, if you didn't fall in a deep chasm or if you didn't suffer from a Cyber Brain meltdown, then it is a bug.

Can you specify how you died? Thank you again. ;)

I had this same thing happen to me twice after getting locked in some closet with a suprem_metasomething mob behind a door with a switch on the outside.. he says one line and then if you get too close.. wham.. thanks for the Fatal Wound... lame. What's the deal with that thing?

Hello,
The area you're referring to is actually a tricky, secret area. You can finish the mission without having to do anything with it. ;)

Yeah, I get that, but what's the point? Some looter refers to it in a warehouse nearby.. I guess i'll try blasting on it.

At least tell me if there's a way out once locked inside (other than dying or restarting the chapter). Apparently there's no other way out once you're in there as I don't see any other switches on the walls.

The no-way-out issue is actually a bug, we'll be fixing this in no-time for the upcoming patch.
Unfortunately, I'm afraid you'll have to die to get out for now.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

No apologies necessary, It's cool, I was just curious. I'm gonna try jamming the door with a turret and see what happens :D

It's happened 3 times so far, twice I was killed pretty normally, shot by looters or cops, and the third time I was in the middle of hacking so I don't know how I died; can you get killed by a failed hack?

The first two times I had 8 Ressurectors left, the third time I had 6 left. I've never run out of Resurrectors, but this has happened 3 times, so I guess it's a bug.

Hello again,
Your Cyber Brain can melt while hacking, this happens when the enemy firewall's response is too powerful for you to handle it. This causes a permanent death, but we may nerf this in the future.

Concerning the other deaths, this is more problematic. I'm adding your case in the bugtracking list.

Thanks again for your support. ;)

Aha. I came here trying to see if this was a bug or not. I got 2 brainmelts within 2 hours.
It was getting frustrating, especially since there was no warning (that I noticed) anywhere that it might happen if you botch the hack.

Maybe it should be clarified more prominently (or do I need to pay more attention?).

Other than that, this is a really interesting game you've made here.
I'm having too much fun. :D

Hello stacky. First thing to say is you're very dedicated to us players, it's 7 AM here in france ( since i think you'r french) and you're still there collecting bugs and stuff, you were there at 2 am also !!
I am playing the game for like 5 hours now, no big bug so far.
I'm posting here cause i did get a weard ( but understandable) death "back to the strange place"; on the very first real misson on new eden, just at the beginning, i tryed to go in the water in order to walk around the bandit ahead, since i could see the ground i walk and i walk, and out of nowhere, bam!, hello strange man! A little warning or even an invisible wall would be nice, cause now i don't try so many way around :D

Re: the secret, is probably for coming back later with upgraded vision to see whatever trap is instakilling you. Or its just forshadowing coming monsters :P

I've racked up something like 6 critical deaths (permanent damages) from that stupid thing. My character is pretty ruined right now :\
