Everybody knows that Mass Effect: Andromeda has its fair share of problems. Bugs and glitches are commonplace, many of which BioWare is thankfully trying to fix. However, one issue that has escaped their bug-crushing wrath is the “Shield Bug.”
In the hopes of finding players who had achieved 100% completion, BioWare Producer Michael Gamble took to Twitter. Several players responded with screenshots showing 99% completion, and explained that further progression was halted by a bug. Unaware of this bug, Gamble reached out for more information.
