Leviathan DLC Ladder Glitch

In the second combat mission in the DLC, during the gauntlet run to the Elevator, I can no longer progress.  Shep gets stuck on the ladder and can't slide down from the roof.  It seems to be caused by a clipping issue, where shep is further back from the ladder than the trigger to start the sliding animation.  So he's sliding down a solid floor.  Problem is I can't go backwards either, as the ladder I used to climb up does the same thing.

I have done this on my first run.  I shut down and reloaded my save, still did it.  Loaded the quicksave, also did it.  Loaded my Restart Mission save, and it STILL did it.  THERE'S NO WAY OUT!

Now I can't finish the DLC, or the game on its second run.  I am now officially sad.

  • When going onto the ladder, wait until the animation starts and then look up as much as you can.  Also try pressing escape to pause the second that animation starts, then return to the game- this sometimes works. 

    What I did was a combination of the two, and that solved it for me.

  • I can’t really thank you enough. Was doing a replay of the whole trilogy and I was about to snap my controller.

  • thank you. couldnt go down ladder. but tried walking slowly towards ladder i slid down. thank you very much.

  • if looking up doesn’t work save your game near there  ladder than tell your team member to go down there  ladder, load that save once there  down there  bottom and than you should be Albert to go down there  ladder yourself

  • This is on the older side of time, I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.
