I dont know if anyone else is having this problem, but I am frequently running into this: Somethings, which show that they can be targeted(crates, opponents, people, quest-advancing objects), are not being targeted unless the camrea is at a skewed angle (So i can nearly NOT see the interactable)
This is not ALL the time, just frequent enough to be annoying.

I don't know if this is coincidence but I started having this problem as well when I ran up to a datapad in the Cerberus research facility, which highlighted properly, and opened the menu to save in a new slot; when I finished saving I immediately noticed the datapad (among other things) no longer highlight properly but I could get them to briefly highlight by opening and closing the menu, so half the time I'm tapping esc twice and spamming the spacebar to interact with things. Edit: this occurs both in windowed and fullscreen mode.

I am havng the same issue, but mine is limited to the com/briefing room door and EDI interaction inside the comm/briefing room. Once I get it to work, i no longer have a problem for ages, then it will come back again. I got no idea what causes it. I have tried mouse tweaks to see if it was something to do with that but that didnt fix it. I have switched from full screen to window, that didnt fix it. I am now at a loss.

I really hope this is being noticed and addressed. Its making the final mission hard (Had to restart, now nothing is auto-targeting again)

I am having the same kinds of problems. In the breifing room is a common spot and that menue trick seems to work just fine for working around it. The one major problem I am having has to do with combat. Half the time I don't get a box around the targets weather I am in the middle of the firefigth or if I stop the action to issue orders and this is making things more dificult than they realy need to be. It started out only every now and again but it is becoming more and more common it seems.

I have the same issue. The only fix i use for it is just to quick save and restart the game which takes time. Most of the time it I end up having to look in the sky to find out where the object is I can click.

[Gamer_Dad_Onyx]

It would be REAL nice if after a couple of hundred people have the same issue that Bioware would have a survey to see if a patch is needed.

It isn't the game, at least it wasn't for the only two (above that quote's position in the thread) who chose to admit they were trying to run the game on crap for video.  If you don't meet the minimums in this game, you have to run your junk video on 800 by 600 pixel screens to allow the interaction to work correctly. 

It isn't a "bug", it's bad hardware, so it won't ever be "fixed" from Bioware's end.

I have all the required hardware and it happens to me all the time. Most of the time I have to go to the menu screen and exit quickly hitting space. And forget about seeing the enemies health.

What hardware do you have exactly?

The direct cause of this is a low framerate so running the game at an insanely high resolution on medium hardware can cause the same problem.

It's always the same. They yell they meet the requirements but don't post their hardware specs and if they do, they are normally wrong and don't meet the system requirements.

Heck, even my crappy 6 year old PC is able to run the game and i don't meet the system requirements CPU wise. The rest is fine, for minimum settings of course. Still looks and runs awesome.

My PC:
Windows XP Pro SP3
AMD Athlon XP 3200+ (yes, the old 32Bit Singlecore CPU)
2 GB DDR1-400 RAM (2x1GB)
nVidia Geforce 6800GT AGP 256MB (Forceware 196.21)
Creative Audigy 2ZS

No overclocking.
Just as an example for others.

on an AGP card? That's pretty nice.

[Recnamoken]

Yes, i don't have PCI-Express. I'm running on 1024x768 with lowest settings, but at least it runs flawlessly. Ok, i had to wait for the 1.01 patch to get rid of the nasty crash bug, but since then it runs without problems.



Funny that all the others who complain about their problems still haven't posted their hardware specs.

We have serious doubts that you actually know what the requirements really are: 

"Video Card = 256 MB (with Pixel Shader 3.0 support). Supported GPU Chips: NVIDIA GeForce 6800 or greater; ATI Radeon X1600 Pro or greater. Please note that NVIDIA GeForce 7100, 7200, 7300, 7400, 7500, 8100, 8200, 8300, 8400, 9200, and 9300; ATI Radeon HD 2400, 3100, 3200, HD 3450, HD 3470, HD 4200, and HD 4350 are below minimum system requirements. Laptop or mobile versions of the above supported video cards have not had extensive testing and may have driver or other performance issues. As such, they are not officially supported in Mass Effect 2.   Updates to your video and sound card drivers may be required. Intel  and S3 video devices are not officially supported in Mass Effect 2."

I have had the same problem. When I first installed the game, it ran so smoothly that I could target an enemy so far away that my weapons and abilities couldn't even reach them. This I could do while running. Then the addons for the game came out. I added one and ever since my game has begun to stutter, not target objects or enemies unless I look at them at an askew angle. Now I can't even target enemies that are standing right in front of me and the gameplay is stuttering bad enough that I can't tell what is going on while in battle. Graphics and textures of the game still look fantastic, but that doesn't help gameplay does it?



So the game runs perfectly until the addons. After uninstalling and completely deleting the games subfolders and folder left over after uninstalling and reinstalling (this time without the addons) the game continues to run stuttering and awkwardly. So now I can't hardly play. The REAL question is, what did bioware screw up in the addons that has changed the video/sound/drivers of my computer? I ask this because other games have been affected as well although I can still play. My computer is perfectly capable of handling Mass Effect 2 with ease and yet problems remain.



I have looked for a resolution to this for over a 2 months changing every setting known to man and the game continues to act the same. Messing with all my drivers: updating and syncing with other drivers, and updating (of course) hoping bioware will finally come out with an answer. As you can see, I'm not happy about what has happened to my computer.



Windows 7 (64 bit)

Alienware M15x

Intel® Core™ i7 CPU Q 820 @ 1.73GHz

NVIDIA GeForce GT 240M

This is just a brief description of my computer to let you know what kind of computer we're talking about(I hate placing down a list of all my computer specs unless absolutely necessary). Anyway, I certainly would like to see something happen from bioware.



Another EA owned game: Command & Conquer 4, didn't even work at all and stuttered with the settings all set to the lowest and messed my computer up as well. They finally released the latest patch and now it works fine, and all graphics and gameplay are set to maximum like it should on a system such as mine. If they could finally make C&C4 work on my computer, why not a simple targeting and stuttering problem?

[Gorath Alpha]

You are the only message author in the entire thread for whom the REFERENCE version of your graphics card was a known middle of the Medium pack card when it was designed.  What we don't know is how far off of the official Reference Sample your laptop manufacturer decided to go.  It really sounds like they cut its performance down into the GT 220 area (bottom end of Mainline for games). 

Because the manufacturers will not adhere to the example that nVIDIA recommends, companies such as EA have no choice other than to decline to offer support to laptops. 

[mentat5000]

So do you think switching out my graphics driver to another might help me resolve this problem? I know that it is affected easily by the changes games make when I install them, and I know that I didn't exactly get the most powerful at all. Just got one that was in the middle, like you referred. It is just strange to me that the game worked perfectly until little changes were made for addons on the game.

um i have a different problem, and i dont really know if it relates, but i need help nontheless. If i enter the tactical view where it pauses the game, and i leave it, the top and left sides of my screen turn orange, and if i alt-tab out, it turns back to normal. it also happens when i am passing a label on the galaxy map, and its really irritating. i have it for steam, the digital deluxe edition, and i DEFINITELY pass the minimum requirements. although im running it on a laptop, i have an ati radeon mobility hd 5870 graphics card, on windows 7 with a core i7 1.60 ghz processor, which overclocks to a max of 2.8 ghz, usually when im playing games, like this. anyone have an idea as to fix this?

you said the magic word... laptop.   minor incompatibility issues with mobile cards are common.. it seems a trivial matter you should beable to live with it.. in an attemp to fix it all i can say is try update you 5870 drivers with your laptop manufacturers redesigned drivers... if it still causes problems I have known people to use 3rd party drivers. could try the PC versions but at your own risk.

Huh. Odd. I have the same card and I don't get this error. Did you get the latest drivers from ATI? Also if you have the OC turned on you might want to turn it off. Some people claim games like ME2 work better with OC off.
