Slow motion causes animation bug

Slow motion causes animation bug

I seem to have a bug where if I attack something from my horse Geralt's animations become really fast until I reload the game. It does give me a huge advantage but its not any fun.
It also seems to happen when I aim bombs or use my crossbow, so I guess it happens whenever the game goes into slow motion.

I recorded it happening:

I also found somebody having the opposite problem.

This problem seems to be tied to my save files as when I returned to a day old save it worked all right.

Same issue, my animation is stuck in slowmotion whenever i attack from the horse or use the crossbow which slows down the time.
Only possible way to fix it is to load a save.

FIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Major gamebreaking.

I have this same bug now, almost unplayed so please fix it in next patch!

 

[ephirz]

Having same bug. Gamebreaker((
Maybe there's an option to switch off slow-mo?

 

[gjgoltz]

Yup, same issue here. It's also causing Geralt's lip-synching in cut scenes to speed up, (i.e. his lips are moving faster than the audio). I can recreate the bug every time I draw my crossbow and hold R1 in, (making the game go into slow motion).

I'm playing on PS4, for what it's worth. Here's a series of videos showcasing the bug:

The Witcher 3 "speed up" bug 1: Movement
The Witcher 3 "speed up" bug 2: Lip synching
The Witcher 3 "speed up" bug 3: Recreating the bug

Can we soon get some recognition on this issue from a RED post?!

Have tried everything, even a clean reinstall doesn't fix it.

I think that savegame remembered this bug.
If it's correct than new game must help but I don't want to lose all progress.
Turning slow-mo off must help too but I don't know how to do this.

Same here.
Because of this bug game is unplayable for me.
I hope red knows this problem and fix it soon.

I have not even started playing this, due to the camera stutter.

I haven't seen to many people experiencing this bug, so I'm wondering if it's fairly rare. I'm a bit conflicted now, though. If it's rare, it might be worth it to start a fresh game. However, it might also fall down the priority line for fixing, as it seems many more bugs are affecting people's games.

Ugh, I'm torn! I really wanna keep playing this amazing game, but if I start new, I'll be losing over 40 hours of play time. If I lose 40 more, there's a good chance I won't come back for a very long time!!

Reproduced on v1.05

 

[Gzeron]

Yea... I still have this bug in v1.05

 

[Flexho]

Still fucking broken! HELLO?! any devs out there?

Can we get some more attention on this matter? Like right now. Literally gave you 14 days to be exact, from reporting the bug and waiting for an answer (which you gave one time in a single thread). Then dead silience. Hoped 1.05 would fix it, but no. How hard can it be for atleast giving us a "disable slowmotion" option? so we can use several crusial mechanics in the game and be able to play optimal.

I have submitted a thread and filled out a ticket report, both with clear evidence and explanations. I know others has aswell, so im not here on a single rant.
