[Gamebreaking] Quest, "A Dying Planet" on Havarl cannot be completed.

Product: Mass Effect Andromeda
Platform:PC
What edition do you have? Super Deluxe Edition
Physical Disc or Digital version? Digital Based Install
Summarize your bug Quest, "A Dying Planet" on Havarl cannot be completed due to an object failing to spawn. As a result the entire rest of the planet's quests are locked and cannot be completed as this quest is part of the main storyline for the planet. During the quest step, "Excamine the Remains", players are tasked with using their scanner to scan an object in order to progress in the quest. The object never appears. See screenshot for details. I have tried numerous fixes, including full reinstallation of the game. I have tried reloading to earlier saves, leaving the planet and returning later, completing other quests, restarting the entire mission with different companions, as well as manipulating the escorted NPC around the map to see if it is possible to trigger the object to spawn another way.

  • Unfortunately I have no idea how the issue was resolved. One day, after months of not playing, I decided to go back to Havarl since I had completed 90% of content available on other planets. Tried the quest one last time... The object to scan finally spawned and I've been able to progress in the game.
