Major glitch: Can't run or sprint anymore in first person.

Post » Thu May 17, 2012 4:24 pm

So, i was fidgeting with ice wall and the cloak spells and for my surprise after finishing up, i just can't run anymore in first person. Just walk and do an almost sprint to just suddenly stop. When i switch to third person, i can sprint and run normally again. This is extremely annoying since i can't play my game in first person normally anymore. I have tried everything, waiting, loading the save again, booting off the PS3, cursing and black magic. Nope, nothing worked. I'm stuck in 3rd person now Dx. It is almost if i was in the cold effect...

Level 40, 91 hours gameplay.

Thanks goodness i made tons of saves and didn't lose too much time. Even so, this is extremely bad and i hope beth look into it, because i'm scared of this eventually happening again. At very least, i'm not lagging.

Also a side question, what's the size of your data install? Mine is 4.3 for some reason...i have seen people with different sizes before too.

I made a poll about game data installs that never really got much interest, but mine is 4.3 GB as well. Does the stamina bar still drop in first person as if you were sprinting or is it just totally non-functional period?

The character do a semi sprint, consume a little stamina and back to walking again. Reloading an old save fixed the issue.

This is a very important remind to all of you to make multiples saves. I almost lost all my game playtime. I would have broken the disk if that ever happened.

Phew, thank godness, i thought my game was broken with just 4.3 giga, since it says 5.5 in the back cover.

The same exact thing happened to me, and I fixed it by going into sneak mode and back out. Try it!
