The ME Bug List thread

Well thankfully this is a testing playthrough run. Even though I do wanna keep going to finish the series. I'm gonna just have to deal with it. In my next playthrough run I will test out each mod at a time to see what is the offending one.

I am gonna start the game all over. For some reason I'm not getting that private terminal Citadel shore leave message from Hackett which is odd. I must've done something wrong in how I do the missions. I need to do the missions in the right order. I knew it was gonna bite me somehow. But yea thankfully it was a testing run. Just only a few hiccups like freezes and a couple of crashes but nothing too annoying. Well maybe a lil.

SPOILER ALERT FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T PLAYED THE GAME. (well majority of you who are in this forum have lol, but still....)


I do have both EGM and CEM installed. I heard that getting the Citadel Shore Leave Priority message you have to finish the Priority: Citadel where Cerberus attacks first then go back to the Normandy and look at the Private terminal message to see Hacketts message. I hope that still applies with the two mods I have installed. I also have to make sure some of these side missions are done at a certain time before the Tuchanka mission as well. I messed up on that one. I hope in this second run that I would do things right and make sure that the missions are finished in time and that I immediately check my message after I conversate with both Hackett and Anderson about the Cerberus attack on Citadel.

I encountered a very frustrating and gamebreaking bug in ME3 yesterday. I play on XB1, backwards compatability, and whenever I launch the game it will get to the main menu, connect to the EA servers, check my save data and downloadable content, be fine for two seconds before it freezes. There is a very similar bug where it won't move past checking DLC but it's not that. The "Checking downloadable content" message disappears as normal, then the game completely freezes, everything on the screen stops moving and there is a loud buzzing sound.

I've been to Xbox and EA support and tried every possible solution offered, things like: doing a hard reset, deleting save data, restoring my profile, reinstalling the game, resetting my xbox, restoring factory settings, etc. EA support basically said I'm out of luck.

However, while trying out different options I found that if I start the game offline and let it check my saves and DLC it will play without freezing, and I am even able to get back online. But this is only an inconvenient workaround. Also whenever I accept a game invite from someone, it takes me back to the main menu (which I've always found absurd), meaning it checks my DLC making it freeze again.

Other things worth noting: if I start the game offline, and disable automatic connect to EA servers (which I usually have enabled) then restart the game online, that's when I get the similar problem mentioned earlier where it doesn't freeze but stays stuck at the "Checking downloadable content" message. Also it won't freeze, on or offline, if I uninstall all the DLC or if I use a different profile. When I reinstall the DLC, that's when it freezes upon completing the checks which leads me to believe the problem is something to do with my connection to the EA servers during the checks.

I don't think Miranda switching to her default white and black outfit during the romance scene in ME2 should be listed as a bug. From what I've observed through many playthroughs of the trilogy, the "we'll bang, ok?" scenes are stock scenes that use your companion's default asset by design. I don't think they were ever meant to represent the companion in an alternative outfit, and my guess is because it's entirely possible that not all outfit options are available for any single possible love interest at the time of the "we'll bang, ok?" event. So they designed it purposely to use the default asset, lest they'd have to script the scenes numerous times for every possible outfit variation. Remember, those are video cutscenes that do not use the actual inworld combat NPC asset, so it's not a simple palette swap.

I realize I'm necro'ing a thread but I need help. This fellow on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/masseffect/comments/8zhg7e/no_spoilersmodded_me3_and_after_completing/is having the exact same problem I am. At the exact same time. Now In PM all he could suggest was that I 'redo the exception for the controller' except I don't HAVE a controller mod? Would he mean do the autotoc again? He was unclear on if that's what he did to fix his. I'm at the end of my rope here.

KrrKs, I tried both suggestions and neither fixed the issue. And this ONLY happens with the return to the ship at the end of the every last Leviathan mission. It's so strange EVERYTHING else in the game... works just fine. Every other DLC or Mod I have works as expected. IF I had to guess I would think it might be the MEHEM, since the one play through I did where this did NOT happen, I hadn't yet installed it when I completed the Leviathan DLC. Otherwise I really can't figure out why this is happening. As the other post I linked notes I have the exact same thing happening they did, only they say they.. had to redo a controller patch … only I don't HAVE a controller anything. At this point I'd be perfectly willing to edit a save to make the mission auto complete without doing that very last mission but haven't been able to figure that one....I DID figure how to get it to be marked inactive in the log list but not how to get it to be actually complete.


I really appreciate you trying to help though! No one else has. 

For the first time, ME didn't flag The Fan as completed and now in ME2, there is no Conrad Verner. I need this derp in my games. Can gibbed fix it? Or any workarounds beyond replaying the entirety of ME?

There's a mod that sets the flags right.
