Hi, I got the same bug yesterday.

My sequence

  • re-established the power,
  • activated the answering machine in the command center,
  • found the book near the stairs close to the generator room,
  • logged out from the game
  • re-logged to the game
  • impossible to open the artillery bunker door, completely STUCK in the quest.

Please find a fix or a workaround, I cannot go further with the main quest.

Yup, exact same. Seems like activating the answering machine before the book completely breaks it.

I understand some quest bugs will not be fixed soon or not at all retroactively. My playthrough was dated a day before the 25-th May update. I started a new game today.
