Hi everyone,
Alright, so I have had a big bug/glitch in the Automatic Love mission, and even though I deeply love this game with my guts, and am willing to pass over most of the bugs, because they are not ruining my playthrough experience or are only visual (some NPCs lips not moving, some unpickable loot, some cars' paths being messed up and destroying stuffs on sidewalks, some red lights floating in the air with no poles, some NPCs passing through textures, etc etc..), but the one I am about to tell you about is definitely rebutting me from carrying on playing because it is too much.
So, on the Automatic Love mission, after you have talked to the manager of Clouds in his office (no matter if you managed to get the information through the dialogue or if you had to fight him and get the info from his computer), the mission doesn't update or validate as completed. So, after getting the info, I then decide to go downstairs to get my weapons back from the locker you left them in before getting into the club, then leave and carry on with my life.
Except there is no way to get my weapons back, and I am LOCKED into the building.
So here I am, trying to find a way to leave the building, and giving up on getting my weapons back since we can loot a loooot by just doing other missions or encounters.
I found a way through a window, reaching a balcony/terrace doing some parkour to get back into the street. Which I managed to do.
Now, here we come to the glitch/bug I told you above.
Now that I forced my way outside of the mission area, the streets are empty. Yes, EMPTY from any cars, roaming NPCs, and AVs in the air. The whole map is dead from any life, except from generated areas like markets or stores.
I am the only living being on the roads and sidewalks.
As I told you above, I am willing to pass over many bugs, but this one, THIS ONE was the last drop, the icing on the cake. I refuse to carry on on my playthrough with the game being in that state.
Unfortunately, I messed up not having different saves, and saving my progress right after getting the info from the manager, obviously not knowing the mission will be glitched.
I do have 2 other saved files, but they are more than 60 hours of gameplay earlier. I also cannot load an autosave since I erase them very frequently. My mistake.
I freaking love this game, truly, madly, deeply. Waited so bad for it since the first teaser trailer in 2013.
I love your work since The Witcher 2, and have 400 hours on The Witcher 3, but please guys, fix this issue in your next patch.
Please, fix this game so it can live up to the reputation it deserves. Of being one of the best games ever made with the Witcher 3, and so all the bad reviews can be a thing of the past.
I truly, truly hope this is going to be fixed in patch 1.2.
Wish you all the best,
Take care guys.
PS: Does anybody else had the same issue, and did you manage to fix it without having to load an earlier save?
