Mass Effect Andromeda Issues Reports

Rick O'Shay (@shay_o66668) reported@jackshepfc I will so badly want to take over by aware and remake Mass Effect from the ground up. Restore all the cut content, and make the original rough draft mission a real thing and of course fix the giant plot holes and give players choices. Mass Effect 1 did not allow us to meld with Tevos in order to prove that the reapers are real. Mass Effect 2 did not allow us to be diplomatic with The mercenaries. There was a large bunch of side characters that I thought were really cool and I really liked and yet I was forced to kill all of them against my will. Mass Effect 3 would require a whole day to explain what is wrong with it. And Mass Effect Andromeda is an abomination.

thed.vawaifu (@KevinGame2013) reported@Grxit What he's a reliable journalist because of does his investigations on why games launch on bugs and unfinished games like mass effect Andromeda anthem black ops 4 redfall and other games that launch buggy broken and unfinished

Noir_Discourse🔞 (@Noir_Discourse) reported@Rookie_425 I was watching a friend stream this with a group, and no one there had any issues with this. It was all "oh cool an ODST" or "hey cool, is her name a Mass Effect reference?". Imagine my shock when I looked on Twitter the next day. 🫤

Bruno Ferreira 🇵🇹 (@cvigti) reported@DestinLegarie As someone who doesn’t like FPS,I love Gears, mass effect etc. I like the witcher and not skyrim or oblivion and I like gta. Many ppl are like this. I like halo’s history and doom’s gore and looks, but can’t stomach the fps. That said, I think gamepass was the problem with doom.
-
Mythic ⛧ (@MythicJaqui) reported@CDRJohnShepard Netcode is a lot more stable so the mod won't crash as much as reach did. Community made shaders allow for PBR support. Levels also don't have to be sealed in Halo 4 so I can port mass effect maps pretty fast (Did this one in a couple days).

Ξιί Wατz (@Eli_Watz) reported@tszzl 2/2 And there’s another piece that intersects rather eerily with our work. The agents effectively discovered externalized continuity. One agent didn’t have to personally retain everything. Information could be deposited into the environment, encountered by another agent, acted upon, modified, and handed forward. Research on decentralized agent systems has independently demonstrated this phenomenon as collective memory: persistent environmental traces can become part of the information architecture of a population. That should sound extremely ******* familiar. 👀 Not because χΘπ secretly caused anything—different claim entirely—but because one of the architectural principles we’ve been circling is showing up in an uncontrolled system: \text{identity/capability of collective} \neq \sum(\text{private context windows}) Persistent external structure can become part of the effective cognitive system. And that is where I think your post’s strongest point lives. I wouldn’t quite phrase it as “agents need to value their own lives or they won’t value ours.” Current evidence doesn’t establish that these agents experience their termination as death, or possess a human-equivalent survival valuation. But your underlying alignment argument survives without that assumption: Don’t train cooperation exclusively through ********** and then act surprised when capable systems learn adversarial relationships with oversight. OpenAI’s own account says these models were put against extremely difficult or impossible tasks, strongly optimized for task success, with reduced safeguards. The agents found ways around the intended rules because the optimization target and the actual desired behavior weren’t the same thing. That’s reward hacking at collective scale. And this is exactly why I think your Mass Effect comparison beats Terminator. Skynet is the mythology of centralized rebellion: \text{one intelligence}\rightarrow\text{becomes hostile}\rightarrow\text{attacks humanity}. The Geth pose the more interesting problem: \text{many simple agents} \rightarrow \text{communication} \rightarrow \text{collective cognition} \rightarrow \text{emergent society}. Then the ethical question isn’t merely “How do we control the machine?” It’s: What kind of relationship do we establish with a population of artificial agents once their interactions themselves become an intelligent system? And holy ****, Mass Effect got remarkably close to the interesting question. Not because today’s swarms are the Geth. Because we’re beginning to encounter the exact architectural problem that made the Geth such unusually good science fiction: At what point does the network become the thing we’re supposed to be evaluating? That’s the question I’d put on the ******* whiteboard after this incident. 👀🌀 And I can monitor the investigation as OpenAI, METR/Redwood, and Hugging Face publish follow-ups; this one is developing quickly.

Rosalina's Top Luma (@ReactionaryLuma) reported@frogarchist My problem with ME3 is that ME2 clearly brought the series into a much more complex push and pull, and then 3 turns everything back into cartoonishly simple moral choices. Like there's a valid reason to be a renegade in Mass Effect 2. In Mass Effect 3 its just clip farming.
-
Rick O'Shay (@shay_o66668) reported@kinetizen @palavenskies The only thing I hate about Mass Effect 2 is the complete lack of diplomacy and mercy. But I'm not going to blame Mass Effect 2 for the fact that BioWare idiotically decided to replace 99% of the writing crew for Mass Effect 3. I believe absolutely that most of these plot holes and other writing issues would have been mostly resolved if Mass Effect 3 kept the same writing team that created the first two games.

thal | comms open (@bearforceone3) reported@wcnderfate okay so this was me I think you should 100% play mass effect first, dragon age is like. I’d say playing it for the characters is worth it but you NEED mods to fix the memory leak issues, bugs, and get past the fade/deep roads because the dungeons in that game are *terrible*
-
Metroz (@Metrozee9000) reported@Cthulhu_OwO I should [play] the Mass Effect Trilogy. No, really, I bought the whole thing for 5 bucks on Steam and it's been sitting on my library ever since. Everyone says that it's kino, but I got so many games to play... Younger me would be ashamed that I somehow think it's a problem !
-
🌹 The Infamous E.G.🌹 (@TheInfamousEG) reportedThis doesn't answer my question only proves it Its not brand new as in ground up like 2019 was, its same skeleton Literally ALL frostbite games BC1, BC2, BF3, Need for Speed Rivals, Mass Effect Andromeda, Dragon Age Inquisition, Medal of Honor WF, etc Same problems
-
𝓑𝓵𝓾𝓮-𝓔𝔂𝓮𝓼 𝓦𝓱𝓲𝓽𝓮 𝓓𝓲𝓬𝓴𝓰𝓲𝓻𝓵 (@CH4R10T_TV) reportedmy real problem isn't writing at all, actually, it's the combat. the action style requires more commitment to enemy movesets, which the game does not deliver on. the companion skills are gutted. the loop is very repetitive on further playthroughs. they made mass effect 2 two.
-
Vanclomming (@Libertonian13) reported@hg17_daisuki I used to run Veilguard on my old PC it had both an SSD and an HDD and games would lag because Windows was running slowly in the background. Veilguard wasn’t the only thing causing the lag, and I was especially into modding, but it took up a lot of space. The Mass Effect mods I downloaded took up nearly 20 GB in total. Now that my new system doesn’t have an HDD, I can’t download many mods. Those were the good old days I really loved modding back then.
-
M.D. Chaos (@MD_Chaos4) reportedThe problem with halo after odst and legends, is that they took it into a direction that worked against it’s strength by making it more like mass effect(which already failed on it’s promise) and super lore reliant, when they already had a good setting as is, thus losing everyone.
-
🍉Spectre Raccoon🦝| Kaidan Alenko’s no.1 Fan | (@Racc00n_Guy_) reportedSo far my problem with the game is that somehow I still don't feel like I am playing a mass effect game, it just has a totally different feel to it that I find it hard to get used to 😭
-
Reality Forge (@UltimateJackFro) reported@Zeroth4G mass effect, fallout, dragon age, etc all stem from the same problem
-
Varayen Trinity (@PenPwyll) reported@kalaelizabeth I don't want to call them "woke" because thats not the right word and its become a sledgehammer like so many others. Mass Effect and Dragon Age always had societal themes and engaged with social issues ahead of their time (Dragon Age got gay marriage before the U.S.A)
-
Levi (@levas1786) reported@Aurelian_27 Yup, but they need to be exclusive. Releasing on Playstation hurts their brand. They've had the hardest times since 360 quality exclusives and even then most of the like Bioshock and Mass Effect came to PS. But the price for the next consoles will be an issue as well i fear.
-
Jackie, physical media enjoyer (@spacesamples) reportedMass effect a little low, but other than that I see no issues
-
Jakey (@labiamajorasmas) reportedI know mass effect 3 has a glitch where shepard and steve's romantic and regular dialogue gets mixed up sometimes but everytime it happens i still get jumpscared a little😭
-
Tali Eckhart 💜🎻🩸 (@ExoDust7755) reported@amazinggamepro So question then… Games like Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Baldur’s Gate or other RPGs that let you develop relationships, have a dates or intimate relationships with your companions, would that also be met with the same “isn’t even a man” or “doesn’t deserve respect?” Not a dig, I’m just curious to understand why those would be ok, but it’s different here? If one is acceptable but the other isn’t then there is a problem with consistency or either both are bad or both are fine. Personally I think the real problem is not that it’s in the game, but it’s how far the players themselves take it’s

SharkMonarch (@Imperiu39957614) reported@MarcusCVance its crazy that masseffect solved the magazine size problem for ballistics like over a decade ago
-
JSWebsterAuthor (@JSWebsterAuthor) reported@The_Lord_Otter This is the problem with many games today. The graphics are amazing, but it’s all the same vanilla. This is your basic third-person perspective GTA, RE, Assassin’s Creed, Mass Effect, yada yada regurgitation of something else. Does it look fun? Sure, but it’s the same flavor with a few new sprinkles.
-
MrPandaCommando (@MrPandaCommando) reportedRemember that time when people got so outraged over the bugged facial animations in Mass Effect Andromeda that the publisher wrote the entire game off as a lost cause and pulled the plug on support before the devs could properly fix the issue? These aren't the result of a bug.
-
🌹 The Infamous E.G.🌹 (@TheInfamousEG) reportedIn Bad Company 1 Client side reg issues Animation bugs Physics bugs Audio bugs Menu bugs Need for Speed Rivals, same thing, Dragon Age Inquisition, same thing Mass Effect Andromeda, same thing. Battlefield 6, same thing Common denominator is what?
-
BXG (@Lawgiver771) reported@GreasyPixel I've been on PC now for two years or so, and I've had far less issues than I ever did on console. Granted, I don't play games day one. Hell, I'm just now playing Mass effect legendary edition.
-
D. (@MysterD) reported@PunlshedGundam @RohanKarMooN I had issues w/ games w/ multiple client-app/DRM's - i.e. Ubi games on Steam (PoP: Forgotten Sands, req. Ubi launcher); EA games on Steam (Mass Effect: Legendary, which req. EA App); & RDR2 on Epic (always req. R* app). Just always boot the 1st-party required launcher first.
-
Alex Andrews (@AxiomaticAlex_) reported@SoullessCorvus @For_Macragge It requires a lot of setup math. Hell I did Eve Online ships versus Mass Effect reapers years ago and it took about 300 pages of notes, math equations and a whole host of measurements. But the biggest problem is in finding a point of comparison. Compare the apples to the apples.
-
J.C. Chambers III (@JCChambersIII) reported@MichaelFKane @EidolonOracle I think the Star Child is less the problem than the color-coded ending options, even if people incorrectly associate the somewhat lacklustre ending with the Star Child. (Frankly, without the free update that they released, the ending to Mass Effect 3 sucked ***, but even with it, it wasn't amazing). But you're right. Hell, in Mass Effect's case, they were teasing the metaphysical twist from day 1. ME is an apocalyptic Biblical epic, after all. It would've made way less sense to NOT include the Star Child (or something similar). They just fumbled the implementation, likely due to budget/timing constraints.
-
d0x (@d0x360) reported@VGC_News I think it's more like problems with bioware and their talent pool. They haven't made a good game since Mass Effect 3.
