Haestrom bug
Hi! My Mass Effect 2 game has a major bug on Haestrom while recruiting Tali. The gate beyond the two geth primes and the geth drones won't open, so I'm pretty much stuck! I've restarted both my game ...
Ok. So I know this was originally posted years ago, but I found a solution. I wasn't into Mass Effect style of games in 2013, but I am now and bought the whole trilogy to play. Here is how you get past the door. Go to this link and follow the instructions under the "Cheats" section.

I personally went to the BioWare link to download the file. This allows you to use the console. When the whole process under "Cheats" is done, open up Mass Effect 2 and go to the door. Now open the console and type "ToggleFlycam". Fly through the door. There will be some screen tearing and some nasty stuff going on. That is expected. Now in the center of the grey void you can see through the window should be a colossus. Fly to it and open the console again and type "KillEnemies." The colossus should explode along with some other enemies. Some enemies will still be standing in this void, that is ok. Now type in the console "ToggleFlycam" and you should be on the other side of the door still. Type "Ghost" in the console and walk through the door. Type "Walk" in the console and you should be on the other side of the door but still seeing the void. Now walk to the door to the left and open it. To the right of the door and down should be a guy. Type "Ghost" in the console and fly over to him and talk to him there. Then type "Walk" and it should drop you into the world with models and textures now present. If it doesn't, try dropping with "Walk" in different places.
When you did this, did Kal'Reegar survive? I've used the console to get through that door, but I can't finish the mission without having to tell Tali that he died.
