Mass Effect 1 Conduit Run

I ran the Ilos trench without the Mako. I know it's stupid and I know about the squadmates dialogue. But I can't restart I don't have the patience and I want to import this character into ME2 and ME3. Please Devs can we get a patch that allows us to back track to at least spawn the mako before the 40 sec countdown run. Please im begging.

  • Are you saying you're stuck? What platform are you playing on?

  • If you are implying that you are running out of time because of some error with the Mako, you will have to reload the last save and go again. If you do want to import your progress then you will have to. Mako run is the only way to beat that timer. i just floored it and didn't worry about shooting anything ,took some damage but didnt matter anyway

  • I know I'm not helping, but this isn't the first time I see this on MELE boards, and I'm genuinely curious...

    Also, nobody can help if you don't have a save where the Mako is still available. Workarounds are only available on PC, if you are on console, you're out of luck. (I think you can use console commands on PC to either spawn the Mako or boost your sprint so that you can make it on foot to the Conduit.)

    Anyway, I gotta ask now: Why the hell would anyone go on foot?!

    Edit: Also, I agree though that BW should have implemented at least three autosave slots instead of just one.

  • I was half drunk and not paying attention. I understand its my fault lol ive beaten the game before but it was like 12yrs ago

    Hey @TheBatFett, I've seen a handful of other folks doing this as well, so it's definitely not just you.

    While we're aware, I'm afraid currently the only way around this would be to load an earlier save game if you have one available, sorry.

  • My oldest save is right after you drop into the trench unfortunately.

    If it's just a timing thing (I can't remember if you actually need the Mako to trigger the cutscene) and you're on PC, you can enable the console (you'll need a mod) and change the player speed to rush the gate. SuperSpeed doesn't work anymore, but you can manually set the speed (default is 1 IIRC).

    But if you're on console, I don't think there's anything you can do.
