With the possibility of a future remaster of the trilogy I thought it will be good to have the known bugs cataloged in one place so they were easy to find for the developers.

I don't play multiplayer so if MP players can add to this thread, it'll be most welcome.

This is not a final list, I'll edit the thread with new bugs upon discovering them.

 

I'm currently playing ME3 and it's the most fresh in my memory. I ask current ME2 and ME1 players report the bugs they encounter here, so I could add them to the thread. Also, please, post examples of the bug, so they can see what the problem is more clearly.

 

Mass Effect 3

 

Single Player

• Omega DLC, Aria's speech. Aria gets teleported during the cutscene which ruins the impact of perhaps one of the most powerful scenes in the DLC. Video
• Extended Cut ending with Leviathan DLC. Asking the Catalyst to explain the Crucible options does not result in video preview of the effect. Shepard is instead seen jerking his/her neck. Video (present for all three options but the most noticeable during Control at 2:41)
• Ladder bugs. Sometimes Shepard gets stuck on a ladder. In the vanilla game it happened to me during Arrae: Ex-Cerberus Scientists mission (descending the ladder to collect weapon mod) and Geth Dreadnought mission (descending to the gun corridor). In DLCs there is one in From Ashes (when you get back to open the pod and have to climb over the building. The last ladder). All of these fix themselves, Shepard is stuck for some time and then falls down. Video
• Getting stuck in the cockpit. There is a point between EDI and Joker where Shepard gets stuck with no way of getting out, forcing you to reload the last save. Video
• Predator pistol not getting extra levels when starting New Game Plus. The most you can upgrade it to is level 7. No example. 
• Kai Leng still being alive after being stabbed. Video
• Getting trapped by salarians during shopping. Video
• No weapons in Tuchanka: Bomb cutscene. Video
• Crazy neck twists. Happens to Samantha during non-cinematic conversations if you stand a little behind her. Also happens to Liara. Video
• Cooldowns after reload. Some squadmates get forced cooldowns after reloading the game. Notably EDI and Kaidan. Video
• During Aria: Eclipse quest If you quick-save and then leave the game after talking to Sayn, the the necessary conversation with C-Sec will not trigger and renders this mission and Aria's tri-mission arc unable to complete.  A suggested workaround is that after talking to Sayn, head to the elevator immediately. The conversation with Bailey triggers once you pass through the scanner. Thread, Save file
• Missing texture when destroying the Rannoch Reaper on PC. Visible when the Destroyer gets blown up by the Quarian fleet. Video
• There is a bug with Shepard's spoken lines during Priority: Earth if Steve Cortez was convinced to go to the Citadel. When his shuttle is shot down, the line for romancing Steve plays, which results in male Shepard's STEEEVE! scream and silent line from Femshep. Video 1, Video 2
• When chasing Dr. Eva Core on Mars you can see the interior of the Kodiak shuttle just before climbing the final ladder. Image
• The propulsion of Turian fighter engines on Menae is disconnected from the fighter itself. Image
• Minor (but annoying) issue. Omni-tool clipping. Omni-tool clips through all the custom male gauntlet options. The least noticeable is Rosenkov Materials but it also clips near the elbow. Video
• Pointed out by DaftArbiter: Citadel DLC - When Shepard encounters the highest-relationship squadmate at the Skycar dealership, when they dispose of the CAT6 troops, they may charge from behind cover wielding and shooting an invisible gun (with no projectiles). Video
• Pointed out by K2LU533: Invisible rock on Rannoch. Video
• Pointed out by SilJeff: Falling through floors at Citadel Embassies. Video
• Pointed out by SilJeff: Broken glass from the window which is not shattered prior to Citadel Coup. Video
• Pointed out by Han Shot First: Ashley's Marksman power is bugged. She keeps trying to activate it to no avail. Video
• Pointed out by shepskisaac: most (all?) of the Citadel side-quests that involve clicking terminals will get broken if you leave the Citadel mid-way through the quests. Upon returning, the terminals don't work anymore and it's impossible to finish these side-quests. No example. 
• Pointed out by Kabooooom: Omega DLC - Sometimes Talon symbols in the elevator fail to load. Video
• Pointed out by impingu1984: Hall of Mirrors Graphical Glitch with Garrus on top of the presidium and shooting bottles, maybe in Femshep Romance only? Video
• Pointed out by MrFob: Miranda's and Jack's slides do not trigger during the destroy epilogues unless you romanced them. Fan-made fix is available here
• Pointed out by GalacticWolf5: MaleShep and Kaidan romance scene is bugged. Their eyes keep moving around, their mouths don't move when they speak and move when they don't speak. Video 1, Video 2
• Pointed out by Natashina: During Aria: Blue Suns mission, walking away while Kannik is speaking prevents the War Assets update. Thread
• Pointed out by Twilight_Princess: The bed-eating data-pad glitch in the Garrus romance. Video
• Pointed out by George89: In the Italian version of the game, in the first minutes of the game, many lines of dialogues overlap. Video

• Pointed out by RedCaesar97: Game will sometimes make you float up into the air when backing up next to cover. NOTE: I believe I read that this is a common known bug with Unreal Engine and may not be fixable. No example.

Mass Effect 1

• Pointed out by shepskisaac: Garrus's face texture is of very low quality. Image
• Pointed out by L. Han: Eden Prime. If you spam powers and switch weapons right after you jump off the railcar, Shepard will run around shooting like a cowboy, shooting from the hip. No example. 
• Pointed out by SimonTheFrog: On PC, the UI sometimes glitches when entering elevators, so that it can't be closed anymore. This is then a dead-end situation for the player. No example.
• Pointed out by RedCaesar97: Pinnacle Station DLC: At the terminal in your new home (after completing Ahern's mission), the Geth Pulse Rifle you can get is not the same Geth Pulse Rifle you can get in the main game. The model is the Avenger/Lancer model and you can equip mods on it. The real Geth Pulse Rifle you get in the main game has its own model (carried forward into ME2 and ME3) but does not allow you to equip mods on it. No example.
• Pointed out by RedCaesar97: Enemies can sometimes get stuck in walls or on top of ceilings. This is typically seen on side missions and can be fixed by exiting and then re-entering, which will reset the enemies' positions. No example.
• Pointed out by RedCaesar97: During Benezia fight, if knocked down and then a Benezia casting cutscene starts, you will remain on the ground. Sometimes you turn into stretchy man/woman. No example.
• Pointed out by KrrKs: Noveria/Peak 15. Textures aren't loaded/lit on certain ATI cards. The cause seems to be shader related. Video
• Pointed out by KrrKs: UNC: Listening Post Alpha // Planet Nepmos, Erebus system, Styx Theta cluster
  Frame-rate drops to unplayable levels after leaving the rachni infested mines. Also affects the main menu. Referenced on the wiki page for Nepmos
• Pointed out by Heimerdinger: Cerberus UNC mission: admiral Kahoku's body will dissapear if you enter the buildings in the wrong order or if you interact with a certain terminal. This makes the mission impossible to complete. Loading an earlier save is required. Wiki page on UNC: Cerberus makes note of that
• Pointed out by Han Shot First: One of the lines to reject a romance with Liara was bugged. There were two lines, one a polite no thanks and the other rude. I can't recall which, but one of the two was bugged and would actually lock in a romance. Thread 1, Thread 2

• Pointed out by Natashina: If you leave the Normandy in the Citadel and zone back in quickly (like to level up squad mates,) the squad screen will have your face and your squad mate's overlapping.  Plus, I was unable to move afterward and had to reload my quick save. No example

• Pointed out by Han Shot First: The results of the UNC: Besieged Base don't flag properly. Even if you don't lose a single hostage, the news story you hear on the Citadel elevators afterwards describes it as a massacre. Then in Mass Effect 2 there is a news story stating that Sirta Foundation never recovered from the attack and is likely to close by the end of that fiscal year. Wiki Page

Citadel DLC - When Shepard encounters the highest-relationship squadmate at the Skycar dealership, when they dispose of the CAT6 troops, they may charge from behind cover wielding and shooting an invisible gun (with no projectiles).

It's Tali-specific as far as I know. Added

[GalacticWolf5]

For some reason, everytime I romance Kaidan with MShep, the romance scene is bugged. Their eyes keep moving around, their mouths don't move when they speak and move when they don't speak. And if I remember correctly, Kaidan's neck twists when he says he's just here for a quick drink. Really fun to watch. Totally immersive.

What scene in particular do you refer to? I'll try to dig up some videos on that.

The final romance scene, the one right before Cerberus HQ.

[K2LU533]

Rannock: Giving Tali the inviso-rock. To this day have not had a play-through where this hans't happened.

Oh, definitely. On the phone now, will add tomorrow. Thanks

I'll see what I can find. Won't be able to add until tomorrow though. Thanks

[Terca]

I feel saddened to see the rocket launcher hiding technique isn't on here.

 

In MP, pull out your launcher and then heavy melee while putting it back in order to hide it. Does not work on Quarians, Salarians, N7 Destroyer, Voluses, Krogan (except Krolord).

[SilJeff]

If you go to the Embassies floor of the Citadel in 3, and go to the seats just to the right of Avina and the big sign [same place you got to punch the reporter]. You can walk on top of said seat and then fall over that railing into the lower floors of the citadel [underneath Purgatory] and then fall through that and end up falling forever.

 

 

Also, not a bug, but I'd like to see them "fix" the floor of the Presidium Commons just outside the CSEC office [where you go to talk to the Eclipse(?) person Bailey doesn't want to release]. Even before the Coup, the floor in front of that office's corner window is already covered in broken glass when the window isn't shattered until said Coup

[shepskisaac]

ME3 - most (all?) of the Citadel side-quests that involve clicking terminals will get broken if you leave the Citadel mid-way through the quests. Upon returning, the terminals don't work anymore and it's impossible to finish these side-quests.

 

ME2 Overlord DLC - picking Legion for squad literally crashes the game on PC lol

 

ME1 - Garrus' face texture on highest PC settings is a blurry mess, looks worse than lowest settings

[ZipZap2000]

ME3 

 

After cerberus attack the citadel you get a choice in the C-Sec offices focus on big crime or little crime it is bugged so it doesn't matter who you choose. 

 

Saving Din Korlack the door won't open and you have to jump in an elevator travel to a different floor and then come back again to make it work. 

 

When you land in to take out the AA during priority earth some of the Reaperised turians float on air during the final fight before you leave with anderson.

 

EDIT: Also if you're going to have the characters relaxing and talking about how beautiful it is on the presidium you might want to remove the rising smoke clouds bullet holes in the walls and fix the smashed windows. 

 

ME2 

 

Garrus loyalty mission looks weird with a missing background.

 

Collector base ambush after collectors climb on top of cover to shoot at you they can sometimes hover above ground.

[L. Han]

Mass Effect 1: Eden Prime. If you spam powers and switch weapons right after you jump off the railcar, Shepard will run around shooting like a cowboy, shooting from the hip.

 

Mass Effect 2: Walking right next to walls or other objects can sometimes randomly lift you up and get you stuck.

[Undead Han]

Ashley's marksman bug in ME3. That ability is currently so borked that you can't put any points into it without making her useless. 

 

In ME1 one of the lines to reject a romance with Liara was bugged. There were two lines, one a polite no thanks and the other rude. I can't recall which, but one of the two was bugged and would actually lock in a romance. Unless I'm mistaken I don't believe that was ever patched.

[RanetheViking]

The Thessia (Parnitha) home system becomes available long before Priority Thessia and if you go there to scan before hand 9/10 times the game will freeze.

[Undead Han]

Miranda's uniform swap in her ME2 romance cutscene if she is equipped with the black outfit she gets after completing her loyalty mission. She'll meet Shepard on the bridge in the black uniform, but then in engineering she is wearing the white. 

[RanetheViking]

The PS3 version is so buggy that you could write a novel on the problems.

 

The Eva-bot scene on Mars  can make the game freeze.

After the Coup when Kai Lang talks to TIM the game can freeze.

Before the final room on Chronos Station that scene can make the game freeze.

 

The final fight against the Reaper on Rannoch sometimes the Synch Lasers targeting circle moves at a snail pace.

 

The Turian Platoon mission bug.

 

In the Leviathan DLC  mission at the dig site, (Namikli) you can get the ladder bug and also if you reload the mission or die for some reason, the Harvesters are suddenly able to target you even inside the pre-fab huts. 

[SimonTheFrog]

ME1: On PC, the UI sometimes glitches when entering elevators, so that it can't be closed anymore. This is then a dead-end situation for the player.

[Tonymac]

I remember that happening - sometimes you have to turn at funny angles to get the green icon to show up again.  

[FeliciaM]

I don't have a lot of issues with mass effect 3 on my ps3. Sometimes cinematics freeze, or lag super bad (Kai Leng in sky car during cerberus coup, while talking to the illusive man.) Also when I'm talking to Anne Bryson for the first time... the entire game freezes and requires me to hard restart my ps3 I thought maybe it was just my clunky, backwards compatible ps3... but it happens on my newer slim one, too.

 

I have the most noticeable ones with mass effect 2. And it's not even a ton of bugs! Just something annoyingly persistent, and I don't know how to fix the damn thing! During cinematics... people will be talking... full sentences etc... then the audio cuts off halfway through the last word! I try to ignore it, but it's extremely annoying. Happens through the entire game, usually in longer cut scenes.

 

Those are just off the top of my head..

[Vazgen]

Everyone, if posting a bug, please add some kind of reference, like a relevant thread, video or a screenshot, or even a detailed description on how to replicate the bug. If only the last is present, the bug will be added to the thread with "No example" addition.

 

For some reason, everytime I romance Kaidan with MShep, the romance scene is bugged. Their eyes keep moving around, their mouths don't move when they speak and move when they don't speak. And if I remember correctly, Kaidan's neck twists when he says he's just here for a quick drink. Really fun to watch. Totally immersive.

I didn't notice any of those. Video

 

The Thessia (Parnitha) home system becomes available long before Priority Thessia and if you go there to scan before hand 9/10 times the game will freeze.

I just got 100% in all the systems in that cluster. I haven't met the quarians yet.

ME3

ME2

Collector base ambush after collectors climb on top of cover to shoot at you they can sometimes hover above ground.

ME3

Haven't seen it. Can you point it out? Video 1, Video 2, Video 3

 

ME2

What do you mean?

[Vazgen]

Ashley's marksman bug in ME3. That ability is currently so borked that you can't put any points into it without making her useless. 

 

In ME1 one of the lines to reject a romance with Liara was bugged. There were two lines, one a polite no thanks and the other rude. I can't recall which, but one of the two was bugged and would actually lock in a romance. Unless I'm mistaken I don't believe that was ever patched.

Can you clarify which line? And in what scene?

[katamuro]

ME1 had more bugs. I remember getting stuck on all kinds of stuff in ME1. Falling through floors was also common if you got struck with several biotic blasts near a wall. 

And in ME2 you have that graphical glitch where during the Garrus loyalty mission in the aircar scene it starts to smear across the screen when moving. 

Oh and sometimes during the Thane loyalty mission when following that turian in the room where the guy stops you if you dont use your paragon or renegade interrupt the game glitches and CTD's. 

 

In me3 mutliplayer sometimes your health will get stuck and wont regenerate from the "severely wounded" effect. 

[Matthias King]

It's a small one, but in ME2, during the Collector Base planning scene, Shepard has a couple of times during one piece of dialogue where he has a glitch, awkward position shift with no transitions.  I don't have a video of it, but I'm sure plenty of people noticed it and can verify.
