Crafting Mutagens is broken since 1.05

[Velerio]

This is like the 20th post about this. Can't you guys just... read one of the other topics before you create another one, only thing you're doing here is spamming. That's all. They know it's broken and they will fix it. It's not game breaking or anything. Also, given the fact that the bug was introduced on Friday, today's Monday, around lunch at Poland and even developers probably don't work during weekends, it's madness to want the fix now. There was no time to create it.

Also, it doesn't really need a hotfix. It may be a little bit complicated, but it's doable and not really tim consuming to work around the bug. And it's not like you create mutagnes all that often. I mean you can, but do you really need to? No, you don't.

You are right about mutagens, but it doesn't affect only them, but alcohol too. Also it is a pretty major bug; no it doesn't prevent you to play and yes it works with an workaround, but still it is a bug that is reeeeeaaaaaly annoying, annoying enough that i cannot play further and sadly patch 1.03+1.04 was removed on gog.com so i cannot play until it is fixed.

Also it could have maybe be prevented with an beta-patch before releasing it live. Don't misunderstand me: Witcher 3 is one of the most bugfree games i have ever played, but sadly the patches seems to add more bugs than they remove with them.

right now, the best fix. just drop the item to create new one.

Despite of the mutagen bug, I can't understand the "You already have this" rule.
I want I make the amount of potions I prefer. Just leave the limitation of the pockets as is. Leave us to refill the pockets before going in battles.

Having the same problem with certain alchemy components, I need 2 vitriol to make Superior Swallow, but the game only allows me to make 1 vitriol =/

have to go find it and drop it and make another very annoying but works im not sure how a bug like this gets over looked hope they put a hotfix out to fix some of the bugs they made with 1.05.

except if im wrong there a major issue with the new patch regarding crafting/alchemy...
it's hard to believe because releasing a patch with those mistakes look like a very hard sloppy job, i must be wrong

This is post 1.5 patch (I'm reasonably sure). When doing Alchemy pre-patch, one could combine three lesser mutagens to create a regular mutagen and three regular mutagens to create an enhanced mutagen (not sure if the sequence goes beyond this point because I haven't acquired those recipes yet, if they exist). Post-patch one can combine three lesser mutagens to create regular mutagen, but cannot create more than one regular mutagen ("you already have this item"), so creating enhanced mutagens can no longer be done. Something for the next patch, I guess. Very much enjoying the game otherwise. Great work. (Edit: now if I can only do as good a job about filling in the title field.... <facepalm>)

This bug is really annoying, it's been more than a week already and no solution to be seen, I thought it would get fixed within a day or two, but maybe it's not that simple to fix or maybe the are really putting a lot of fixes in the next patch. I hope it gets fixed soon and thanks guys, for your hard work.

OMFG. And I thought this was ACTUALLY a game limitation. What the hell CD Project Red, this is sloppy...

I have so many mutagens in my bag right now and have been spamming craft button in vain.

This is a SERIOUS issue, how the hell did you not fix this yet? -.-

I have played the game for 54 hours now, still in Vergen at level 7, exploring every nook and cranny, killing all monsters in sight only to find out all the mutagens I have been collecting are useless...

It seems to me that ypur patches have actually been detrimental to the game by crushing performance and introducing gamebreaking/immersion ploughing bugs... FFS!

Guys, it has been said a thousand times. You can drop your item and then craft another and pick it back up. It is inconvenient and should be fixed, sure, but don't pretend you can't play because of this.

Dropping mutagens to fix the inventory problem is not a fix but an ingenious gamer fix to improve CD Project Red's inventory glitch. I just ask CD Project Red to develope an inventory/creation program system that overcomes this mutagen "you already have this item" creation problem. Thank you for creating TW3, it is an awesome game!

I can craft mutagens now after 1.06, but they still have to be readded after every load in order for them to take effect. Hope this is fixed in 1.07

 

[gregee123]

it's said to be fixed on consoles with the latest patch (1.05) so fingers crossed.
