Mass Effect 2 bugs that didn't make top 3, and other flaws

[BlindNero]

• ANNOYING
  
  • Happened only once yet. Hope to never see it again, when attempting to playing a singleplayer game on my own PC.

• DOORS CLOSED (GREEN BUTTON GONE) AFTER BACKTRACKING
  The game doesn't block you from backtracking. But still, if you do you might get trapped!
  
  • Lazarus Research Station. Started new Game (3d). After meeting Jacob and doing the "add squad power to your hit".
    Then, through the corridor into the smaller dark red hall killing 3 mechs.
    THEN IT COMES:
    After killing those 3 mechs, you hear Wilson (?) screaming, and you are supposed to go in that direction. But the corridor you came from is still open. Backtracking through that corridor (door is still open), to the lighted hall where Shepard just met Jacob, listen to the log on the bench. Upon returning, the door is now closed, no green button to open it! Apparently the closing of that door is on a timer.
    If you didn't save (i did), reload autosave.

• Trooper out of cardboard
  
  • Lorek Eclipse Base in Insanity mode.
    When Shepard opens the door, immediately two Troopers start shooting. One of the two has no bodily movement at all: looks like a cardboard figure sliding over a rail, left to right, and back. Sometimes stands still, spreads arms as to invite us to shoot him as much as we like.
    Or WAS it a joke? Forgot to take screenshots. will do on my 3d playthrough.

• SHAMELESS STEALING
  
  • Such a nice Refugee couple... still, Shepard just takes what's in their Wall Safe. After or even before a conversation, doesn't matter. Shepard takes it anyway, and that's just after she told looters in another room to stop their miserable practice (stealing from dead people)!
    
    Just when i used 'paragon' approach to them, saying i want to help them etc. It feels awkward when at the same time i snatch their cash... while they're still in the room!
    and what's even more odd: they don't bother one second about it!

• WALLS MISSING.
  
  This is not from a reloaded save, this is straight on playing. I just arrived there again (now i'm playing my 3d playround): this bug is there.
  
  • Recruit Mordin mission. Just before the battle with the Vorcha in the room where Shepard has to reinitialize the system by inserting the cure. Walking towards the door to that room, then -before opening it- looking back, all walls of the room she's still standing in have disappeared. She takes one step into that direction (so: back to where she came), and it all appears again.
    
    Make Shepard stand with nose against the door, then...:
    
    
    
    ...turn around and see the room has disappeared:
    
    
    
    Take one step, and voilá! It's back again.
    
    
  
  
• The same as above happened in the "Close the Shuttle Door" sub-mission in Recruit Archangel: the third shuttle i played was the left one. Run to the button and hit it- jump back over one block then hide in the first opening in the wall next to it, ready to shoot the approaching Krogan. Just before i could aim i saw all the walls had disappeared and the shuttle door fell down and shut in open space, which was red-brown colored as in the above pictures.

• UNREACHEABLE AMMO
  
  • Can happen anywhere.
    And it is just... injust!
    Sometimes you really need it!
    
    Why can it go there and i cannot?! It should go only where Shepard can go too.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
• in Korlus, Recruit Grunt mission, the first part half into the big construction all doors back remain open. When backtracking for ammo, you can walk back to start of mission. But it triggers the battles inside the building upstairs, to start all over again.

[BlindNero]

• Confused squad
  What use is a squad that doesn't understand the basics of following orders. At least on some locations it's like they're on crack. I point them where i want them, and they either stay where they are or go sitting somewhere else and say "Got it" "Right here". I do the shooting while they stay idle miles away staring at a wall or a rock...

With patch 1.01 Collect Research is not L-Shift anymore
Not a bug but a change without notice...

• Hammerhead DLC was released after the patch wasn't it?...
  I'm currenty playing the game without the patch installed, and in the Hammerhead mission, jump is "Left Shift" and " right-mouse" to collect research; while after the patch is installed jump is "E", collect research is "V".

* [update June 21, 2010] or the other way around. When i installed Overlord, the patch was installed again automatically. Hammerhead's Jump is now Left-Shift, Collect is right mouse button.

With Kasumi DLC, Shepard gets a knee-problem.
Although Shepard in the new casual outfit obtained with the Kasumi DLC is high res, very beautiful and well designed (style, acceptable anatomy and skin), she now has failed knee joints, revealed when kneeling down.
Frightening knees.









Obviously this outfit for the Kasumi DLC wasn't finished, the design for the legs haven't been fully worked out.

Tali's father invisible during cutscene
When finding Tali's father, he is lying at the bottom of the stairs.



Without hitting Spacebar to trigger it, Tali's reaction starts automatically (there are more spots throughout the game where interaction is automatically bypassed).



During the closeup scene, her father's body isn't there, Tali is talking to empty space.





After the scene, when distant camera is restored, his body reappears.
