Re: (Bug) Mass Effect 3 LE, Xbox: When speaking, Shepard's Helmet moves as his Jaw

I started Mass Effect 3 of the legednary edition to see the visual improvents there. 

I've come across a definite bug while playing on the PS5 version as a male shepard.

If you use the N7 helmet (non rebreather version) or are using the N7 defender armor which has the same helmet model, then everytime Shepard speaks the "chin" of the helmet itself moves up and down, stretching and distorting behaving elastically. It's incredible noticibly in cutscenes if you have the helmet on in the scene.

I believe this is clearly a bug as the other helmet with the breather mask has no issue and it just looks wrong. I don't think any helmet would have elastic parts.

Hope it can be fixed soon.

  • Have the same issue too. Hopefully they can fix it soon, I’m not sure if this was an original glitch or not, sucks because this is one of my favourite sets in the game. 

  • It didn't happen to me but I experienced a different bug from the original ME3: If you equip Death Mask and choose Helmet option "Off in conversations" Shepard's eyes and mouth bulge out. Why didn't Bioware fix it?

  • @EA_Mako  We have yet to hear from any of the community leaders if they are aware of this issue or not. Can you clarify, please?
