Mass Effect Andromeda Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Patch Ledger (@patch_ledger) reportedAn analyst told CNBC EA might have to sell IP to service its buyout debt. Four days later, BioWare showed up in exactly that sentence. > Aug 2: CNBC quotes an analyst on the $55B EA buyout - "I don't know how EA is going to service this debt without... studio closures, and possibly IP sell-off" > the buyout added $18-20B in new debt to the balance sheet, confirmed across multiple reports this week > Aug 6: EA is reportedly looking to sell BioWare and other IPs specifically to pay that debt down > EA has not confirmed or denied it - the studio that made Mass Effect and Dragon Age is now a line item in a debt-service plan, not a press release Four days between "here is what selling IP would look like" and BioWare's name landing in that exact sentence is not a leak. It is a timeline. What is next on that list?

Infinite Devil Machine (@ErrantCowboy) reported@DanticsOfficial I think this is fine in shorter games but I have to be honest, if I was locked into a playstyle in cyberpunk at hour 50 and I knew I was only halfway through the ******* game and I was hating it, that'd be a problem. I'm saying this is a huge Mass Effect fan.
-
Juriyafx | Kael (@juriyafx) reported@DanticsOfficial The Mass Effect trilogy remains one of the most interesting and memorable sagas available. ME3's issues are varied and only catch up with you in the finale. Boring, anticlimactic, disconnected from your choices—and those RGB endings combined with those explanations turn a writing mistake into an insult to the player. Plus, the revised ending added via patch made a bad ending even worse. And the answer to your question is: NO! Just because worse things have come out in the following years doesn't make what EA/BioWare did any less severe.
-
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.

Winter ig🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🇺🇲 (@ExPrinceWinter) reportedMf i got an unopened copy of mass effect legendary edition for 10 bucks for my xbone Halo MCC goes on sale regularly for 10 bucks, 6 games, pve, mp, AND pc modding for 10 bucks Fallout and Elderscrolls regularly go on sale Thats a skill issue
-
Luke (@GiveawaySoul) reported@Aussie_Legend Yeah I trust CDPR to hit a pre-release technical target like I trust EA to make another Mass Effect. (Not at all.) I do hope engine problems like this can be ironed out quickly but I guess it frees up time to play other stuff.
-
Lex, Lex and Lex, Attorneys at Law (@Lexbianism) reported@Slumdog_Milly I have no problem with your take, I simply disagree. If your problem is with the story, fact of the matter is that not every game will give you full narrative freedom. It's like Mass Effect or the Witcher, you get a preset character and get to make some narrative decisions to
-
Anime Austria (@AustriaAnime) reported@shinobi602 No problem for me. I personally prefer the default character and the thing that bothered me the most in Mass Effect was that you couldn't change some things about default Shepard like hair, beard and Tattoos/Makeup
-
Ƚล Ð๏ͼϯ๏ṛล (@VoxDocVoxDei) reportedAm i overthinking it, or is it odd that Iran would cyberattack the state that is led by Tim Walz and not a hugely populated one for mass effect, and at the same time we were warned that AI had "broken free"? Prolly just overthinking.
-
Padjil Keyes - FR/EN VTuber (@PadjilV) reported@onlypushinp @dreadwolf_solas Mass effect had big problem beetween 2 and 3 with some story part being scrapped, it is coherent because of the protag, the cast and the ennemy who in the end don’t change. You jusy can’t do that with DAO for example.
-
Brandon Raymus (@BrandonRay37903) reported@AshenOne_VI Biggest issue the game has? It turned Dragon Age into Mass Effect. Thats not what the game was for 3 games, why change it on a 4th?
-
thed.vawaifu (@KevinGame2013) reported@MountKrushmore @DAKKADAKKA1 Yeah remember what the hell happened to mass effect Andromeda what it launch with technical issues and glitches and anthem was rushed to launch filled with crying Devlopers over the stress they put in over BioWare magic that doesn't exist
-
Kuuen Enjuro (@KuEnjiro) reported@pinkkomimi My problem is more I try to play it like Mass Effect and then remember I can't use skills and I have no party members to cover me LOL. I'm getting better at it though thanks to the world quests.
-
Vol fan 83 (@TheVolguy83) reported@MisterCiv Issue is it gives permission for them to do it in every game now. Star wars survivor series, won’t be able to use the force u less you buy an upgrade? Mass effect, only get some guns but good ones are all pay to play? That goes for any and every title they and their peers make.
-
Daniel M (@Daniel86Cycles) reported@ApplefatGov @csaurageul Borrowing the color palette of Gears of War, or cover based shooting mechanics into genres it didn't belong like Mass Effect or even Uncharted (or a dozen other games) caused problems for a long time. But that doesn't say anything about the games where they worked.
-
Gyt Kaliba (@GytKaliba) reportedDoing a bit in the first Mass Effect that I somehow NEVER did last time (the Bring Down the Sky stuff). Can't for the life of me figure out why, I enjoyed these enough that I played all three games back to back, so wanting to be done wasn't an issue.
-
Trey👑 (@ThatGuyNamedTre) reportedYeah Max is spot on here. The games I own physically are the games I love. Mass Effect, Cyberpunk, Ghost of Yotei, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Sparking Zero, Astro Bot, and more. Next game I wanna own physically (if the reviews are good) is Halo. And I want GTAVI physically 😭
-
Nazzy (@Nazglue) reported@TheHiddenOneAC Mabey its because I've played yakuza and mass effect, but is it that much of an issue seeing reused animations?
-
Rick O'Shay (@shay_o66668) reported@OrikonMods One of the few things stopping me from replaying Mass Effect story after more than a decade of having not played it is the fact that many of the best mods have serious compatibility issues with each other. I want them all, but I can only have some of the mods.
-
Man With A Stick (@bludgeonParagon) reported@AMWorley_Writer @drowwpoison @kalaelizabeth It makes more sense when you look at Mass Effect 3's multiplayer as the reason why EA wanted to get so heavily into loot boxes and live service in the first place, it was wildly successful where Inquisition's multiplayer failed and they were chasing that high ever since
-
Marxon (@Marxon1134x) reported@Captain_Haruno @Spartan_Eden Exactly the issue. Again Mass Effect books weren't required reading. Halo was just money grubbing
-
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.
-
Helios Δ 🐦🔥🗝️💛 (@HelioReign) reportedMy main issue with the Mass Effect universe is that it feels like they drastically underestimate what the populations of these worlds should be
-
🤘🇨🇦 Ben 🇨🇦🤘 (@browland1) reported@MikeDKirby @kalaelizabeth BioWare is a good legacy name and the success of the Mass Effect Legendary Edition is proof that the IPs still have gas in the tank. The issue is that the BioWare of old no longer exists, key talent was forced out by bad management under EA and only a shell remains.
-
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.
-
sukru tikves (@stikves) reportedThe problem is a studio or even an “established IP” means nothing without the actual talent behind it As much as I love BioWare and the Mass Effect universe, It would be a massive undertaking to bring it back to the level we were used to before. Still I will keep hope.
-
NintenRico (@NintenRico) reported@JamieMoranUK This sucks. Mass Effect is one of my favorite IPs and it’s gonna be gone. Or the new owners will want live service Mass Effect
-
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)
-
Jesse (@SweetLMG) reported@IGN Notice how these articles always start with “former”. Anyway Mass Effect 5 has a long shot as it is. Announced this game 5 years ago, and still have nothing to show for it. New owners are hardly the problem here.
-
The Wise Investor 🧠 (@TheWiseIC) reportedInteresting take by Serenity - I somewhat agree. We are still very far away from this, however. Let me explain. Autonomous vehicles are already showcasing that even though they do 95-99% of driving tasks just as well, if not better, than humans, there are still those 1% edge cases that make or break the value added by autonomy. That’s because the margin of error is literally 0%, which results in passengers being fine or being crushed/impaled by a software glitch or blind spot. Humanoids will be no different. General purpose robots will likely take mass effect by the end of this decade and handle 95-99% of general labour use cases (warehouse applications), but there will always be edge cases where the cost of using them makes no sense if they can’t perform certain tasks. Lately I’m starting to approach the thesis that an AI singularity is fast coming, but I disagree on the timelines. I do hope the guardrails are in place to prevent the seemingly inevitable collapse of society with robotics.
