Need Help Problem with quest: 'a worm in the apple'

Robin

hi everyone!

I've got a problem with the assassin quest 'a worm in the apple'. I am not able to accept the quest from Matheus Santos, so the quest ends. When I go back to Havana on Cuba and report back to the Vice-Admiral he sais: '...' so i'm not able to play the storyline any further! Can somebody help me to go to the next quest? (if this is possible) :oops:
 
:ahoy

Have you tried going back to your last save and trying it again? Sometimes the game "hangs" at one spot and replaying it again works.
 
Hi,

I've never got any problems with that quest, have you sail to Tortuga first to get Vassal Bethune? And can you talk to Santos if you are in his house on Port Royale?

In his dialogue you can choose to work with him or not and there you must say you'll work for him and then the quest works by me.

Thank you for your replies! But I did both of your suggestions, and it still doesnt work.. so i think i'll play another storyline.
 
Hi,

That very very strange, I had no problems with that quest, where are you stuck exactly, can you talk to Santos? Did he gave you the quest to kill Ambroz Bricenos on Hispaniola?

If you can talk to santos and he didn t give the quest what does he said then?

I'll remembered the Santos quest is also in the Tales of a Sea Hawk storyline and there you must be a certain level to get the quest? Maybe you must have passed that level here to? I don't know

Greetz,

Yeah, i talked to Santos and he gave me the quest, and i accepted it. Then i walk out of the house en my quest book isnt updated or something. But when i talk again to Santos he sais something like: is your target already killed? So he gave me the quest, but it isnt updated on my profile. Greetzzz
 
Oh wait I know what you mean, it's indeed true it isn't updated. You must go to Hispaniola now and go to one of the shores. Boca The Yuman if I'm not mistaken. There is Ambroz Bricenos, you must talk to him and kill him and then return to Santos to continue the quest. Read the dialogue's carefully because there you can read what you must do.

I hope you can continue the quest now ;)

Here is the walkthrough of the quest I've found on this site, so if you can't figured it out just look here, it's true some quest book entries are missed here.
