Exactly same problem here, but i think it somehow connected to the amount of quest and scripts you have after arriving on nexus.
I tried different combos. First time game gave me a crash when spent like 1 or 2 hours on the nexus docking area doing quests. And i could t get pass the welcoming zone to the tempest.
Then i load old save and before doing anything i just run a circle through location. It went fine. Then i went to tempest. Nexus again. Had a message from Hyperion lady. Tempest again. Nexus again. Took quest via communicator( Find doc in the bar). Tempest again. And after all that nexus. It did t help, of course. I get crashed just when i am trying to enter the zone.
The only real difference from when i was t is the techician that asks to find stolen cargo. I believe he somehow related to this glitch.
And my problem began right after asari ark.
PC version. Deluxe. Hope to get some news from EA or Biowae soon.

I've loaded up an old save and have been able to progress without seeing the bug so far by ignoring the quests Firefighters, Contagion, and Life On The Frontier. I believe the bug to be caused by one of these quests.
I'll report back later whether or not I hit the bug by completing one of these quests, or if I am able to avoid it altogether.
I am almost certain it is 'Contagion' however others have completed that quest with no issues and had issues with 'Life on the Frontier' so, something is very wrong. Maybe it is not associated with the quests themselves, maybe we are missing something. But what?
Great. Thank you. Will be waiting for some good updates from you.
Well, from what i expirienced there are a few options.
(SPOILERS ALERT)
1. Too many scripts at the same time (Like talking about 1 night device explosion, missing doc and contagion message from Hyperion captain), combined with some cut-scenes like return of asari (not just first scene, there are asari at the register table and so on).
2. Quest glitch and i personally bet on the engineer, that want you to find cargo. For me personally bug appears some time after you taking the quest.
I don t think problem is in Contagion task alone, because quest triggers automatically ( somehow, almost everyone managed to complete it) and i had t even touched it. BUT, it may be the cause of wrong script combination, as well
3. Just some delayed animations or items placement. I mean 2 things that got same spot at the time that they shoud t leading to crush. If you don t visit nexus very often- it is quite possible, like the first option.
4. "Night quest". Not sure about it. I assume that if you dont go to nexus directly right after recieving devices search mission, there may be some diversity. For example: if you go on other missons or planets, then different numbers of devises explodes, depended on time spent before arriving on the nexus.
Some algorithm in sequence of our actions put us in trouble, otherwise all players would have same issue.
Anyway it must be fixed, not replayed or even avoided.
P.S. Pardon me for my poor English skills.

Just finished Life On The Frontier (the Kadara quest you get from Sid) and no crashing thus far. So it wasn't that one.
Perhaps it has more to do with something in the order of the quests, or which ones are open simultaneously. No way of knowing I suppose. Hopefully the dev team can handle this and patch it.
Please help me. I have the same problem.

Unfortunately the only proven solution as of yet is to go back to an older save prior to the bug occurring. I did this and lost 20 hours but haven't seen the bug pop up again. I still believe the Contagion or Firefighters quest has something to do with it so I've been avoiding those two.
Welp, looks like I wont be going to the Nexus until a patch? Similar quest lines here as well...Contagion / Firefighters and still have to chase the Archon ship etc. Definitely sounds like its something with the quest scripts all over the place with Nexus.
