Mass Effect Andromeda Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  Mr Bailey XBOT 🇺🇦 (@XECO_Bailey) reported 2 minutes ago

  @SnapBlastPLAY My issue with it was introducing too much all at once, the original mass effect games felt just so good.. Andromeda because it used a new engine i'm guessing, the controls felt weird, it was pretty but something didn't feel polished.

  I got into Mass Effect not too long ago and now I’m about to witness it crash and burn again

  @_SHAAMUUU_ Probably same problem next Mass effect being direct sequel to ME 3

  @Benito_Llan @marewho12 Mass Effect used the excuse of losing contact with a privately funded expedition, although it came with its own problems (somehow unnoticed by FTL-capable humanity despite being around *Alpha Centauri*, and discovered by aliens despite, again, being around Alpha Centauri)

  @wojtek_mic @DiscussingFilm Mass effect was always woke but it was written in a way that it wasn't forced on anyone. The woke stuff was natural and never forced that's why no one had a problem with it. Appeal to non gamers means less action and more bullshit nonsense

  Amazon is ordering major script rewrites for the Mass Effect TV series. They want to modernize it. It’s the same old story where a studio takes a loved universe and starts hacking away at it because they think they know better than the source material. I want to enjoy a space opera without a lecture. Especially one where I’m not wondering if the writers even liked the original game or if they’re just trying to "fix" something that wasn't broken. Usually, when a show gets ordered to undergo massive rewrites to make it more accessible or modern, it just means they're stripping out the soul and the grit that made people care in the first place. Amazon has a habit of doing this to established franchises. We’re likely in for another project that values a message over the actual craftsmanship of the world. Expect the worst.

  @SnapBlastPLAY Yes it did. As a long Mass Effect fan they ruined the game for me and using the frostbite engine to cut cost was a bad idea the game looked awful should have used unreal engine like previous Mass Effect games cause the main issue with Andromeda is graphics and animation.

  @StabbyPotat0 Walking Dead, Mass effect 3 (only if you played the previous 2) and lowkey Borderlands 2 was PEAK

  Hey @EA are you an indie dev? No? then why the FRICK are your servers down for your app that you promoted as "better than origin" forcing everyone to use it? We cannot login to play OUR SINGLEPLAYER GAMES! Smh "billion dollar company". Sorry everyone no mass effect tonight.

  @EtherionMaster And any ability to target her would fail instantly because her mass effect and again when the literally second best in the verse so far almost dying and admits her ability is mfin broken if not for tengen misinforming her!!! and we got to see her Domain expansion

  @NoahNCopeland I've noticed that high effort/quality mods will generally avoid the word "fix" in the title (even if they arguably *do* fix a glaring flaw, like Mass Effect 3's ending).

  Elysian Fields: Reborn launching 3/28/25 (@ElysianFields_0) reported 21 minutes ago

  So I saw the comments from the director about Andromeda, and I have to admit, he has some points. I played Starfield for 2 hours and then played, and best Mass Effect Andromeda rather than finish that. Andromeda has its problems, but at least its not Starfield.

  @ZenitaDee @LumpyTheCook No, you're just really stupid. The plot for the trilogy barely moves an inch through the entirety of Mass Effect 2. It is riddled with plot holes along the way. You not seeing that isn't my problem.

  @cheersitskatie Oh look another stupidity oozing, men hating ***** wannabe fan not worthy of the inclusive Mass Effect fandom. Kindly piss off, you don't understand the games and themes of coming together and resolving issues with each other while facing existential threats like the Reapers.

  @DejavionL75163 @Battlefield @masseffect Valorant requires this. Also The Finals and ARC Raiders in Future. Most gamers haven't even noticed this because Secure Boot is enabled by default in modern systems and is a system requirement for Windows 11 anyway. It's also entirely a "YOU" problem.

  Does this unit have a soul? (@somewillwin) reported 34 minutes ago

  @LFaunts I’m…. Weary. I’m not a fan of adapting choice based games (I have this same issue with the upcoming mass effect show) But I have also been pleasantly surprised with the names associated to it

  @HariSel57511397 Wrong. Mass Effect 2 is peak ME. The only problem is it is where Mass Effect watered down the class/skill system to become more palatable to normies.

  @Waefent "butchering for DEI" as if mass effect itself isn't diverse and inclusive already, this is not the problem in the slightest

• 
  Elana Fisher (@elanafisher) reported 42 minutes ago

  @kalaelizabeth Also a big problem is people comparing it to a whole trilogy. If I compare it to just Mass Effect one, I like it more. I honestly didn’t become that attached to characters until ME2 besides Garrus

  @EAHelp Mass effect legendary achievements still busted on steam. Because of EA app. Is there a fix? Asked about 30 times now.

  CommanderShepardHere (@LinuxGuru25) reported 47 minutes ago

  @nuhre_ every mass effect game is a buggy mess until they fix it and the trilogy still has bugs from years ago...and what makes the story boring? How are the characters terrible?

• 
  Jæk (@kolyjah) reported 48 minutes ago

  @kalaelizabeth They are abandoning it, it’s not horrible, but it is a bad Mass Effect game. Weak writing and semi weak characters. Calling the fans the problem and the reason the game you starred in bombed is not how you endear them to future ventures.

  RepentantSky (@RepentantSky) reported 50 minutes ago

  @AHalfNickel Not gonna lie, I hate this series. Everyone in it is a complete and unlikable *******, and Mass Effect 2, didn't do anything to fix it. I bought the whole trilogy at once and I almost played the 3rd game just to watch them all die, but I didn't want to waste the time.

  Neon Bird Games (@NeonBirdGames) reported 51 minutes ago

  Absolutely awful take The Mass Effect universe is so ripe for games and media without anything to do with Shepard and the Reapers and they could be massive hits Reducing Andromeda's issues to "well it didn't have Shepard" sure is something. Dumb, but something

• 
  Awful McBad (@AwfulMcbad) reported 54 minutes ago

  @RazorFist Mass Effect 1's only real problem was the combat. The story, atmosphere, dialog, and setting were fantastic. ME2 changed it from an RPG into an action game where you had some skill points. The gameplay was tighter but the story was half-assed and the final boss was a joke.

  should I re-play mass effect? but i gotta fix my mod and **** cus i messed up the placement

• 
  Mystic Geek (@MrsGeekyLatina) reported 57 minutes ago

  Bad take because Patrick Weekes wrote Mordin, while the lead writer of Mass Effect was Drew Karpyshin. Also, Casey Hudson had the final say on what went into Mass Effect. Veilguard’s issue is the overall writing not just one character.

  @TheLocus343 the first picture looks like generic sci-fi place. I could imagine it being the inside walls of the Citadel from mass effect. The second one looks like andromeda's ruin interiors. The issue with H4 is it doesn't have an identity. Like its OST, it could be from anything.

  @luskybe @havonetae @kalaelizabeth Except it's a fanon conclusion, not canon. In canon, yes the cycle is broken so we can't be sure, but Mass Effect has a fairly realistic take on human nature. Conflict is inevitable. Might not happen straight away, but it will in some form, large or small scale.
