I’m at “return to zhu’shope” and stuck. The door won’t open for the Mako. I’ve talked to everyone, killed the geth, talked to Lizbeth’s mom, turned in the data for the other guy, and the door won’t open. i have the auto save and one additional save, just prior, and reloading both still leaves me stuck. Since I can’t leave for the Normandy, my only option is to live out my days in the tower with an asari and a turian until this bug is patched or until my Xbox dies. Will EA be patching? Is there another way around? Is there something that will trigger the door? Help, please.

Heck, you aren't even at the cutscene that I thought you were stuck at, but instead can't exit to the next run to get to that scene. Two questions, did you use a red or blue option to get past the Exo-geni idiot?? If yes, did you talk to the mother and daughter Dr team about what to do with the colonists?? I am wondering if using the option and NOT talking to them could be your issue..... Edited to add.... Just noticed in the text on your first image...it says you may want to talk to Juliana Beynham......who are the mother daughter Dr team I am talking about.

And you’ll notice the green light on the door is not activated.

Thanks! I gave it a shot, but there doesn’t seem a place in that section that you can go to load something different. I went back through the tower again, too. I just uninstalled the game altogether, gonna install it again and see if that does anything.

Reinstalling didn’t help either. Not sure what else there is to do other than restart the game… Guess I’m off to ME 2.

Hey man,Late to the party here, but I found this thread because I was having the exact same issue. I figured out that it wouldnt let me though the door because I hadn't equipped the thorien gas grenade that the scientist girl's mother gave me when talking to her before trying to go through the door. Hope this helps!

If you play on a PC try to repair the game.

(Origin > Game Library > right click MELE > Repair)
(Steam > Game Library > right click at MELE > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files.)

@technotimber You are supposed to get a cutscene when approaching that door. I will include a link to a youtube video showing one of my runs through this in MELE. Hopefully, Holger's advice will get you past this, as it isn't a common issue and may or may not be fixed in a patch simply because I have only heard one other person having this on this forum.

I’m playing on Xbox. But no cut scene, unless you mean with the guy (no spoilers)… but yes that happened. It was a known bug in the original. In fact, if you google it, you’ll find a ton of issues with it from the original which I did play through.

It’s my fault for not creating more saves for sure. But i also shouldn’t have to do that to make sure the game progresses properly.

@technotimber This is kind of a long shot, but try driving the Mako and then running as far away from the door as the map will allow, saving and quitting, then coming back. That might force the game to reload the relevant data.

Yes I talked to them both, turned in the data to the other guy and killed the main guy. I’ve tried talking to both mother and daughter again multiple times, but they just a few passing words. There’s no more dialogue. For some reason it just didn’t trigger the door.

I did read in the original that if you damage over time equipped on a weapon, which I did on all three characters, that was typically at fault for keeping the door locked.

ive got it reinstalled again and I’ll le you all know how it turns out.
