ME3 Patch 1.05 introduced eye + lip sync animation bugs during key scenes in game (XBOX360)

As evidenced by my "me too" vote, I too have noticed something similar:

A lip syncing issue during the romance scene with Liara. It occurs after Shep's final dream sequence, when he wakes up with Liara in his arms. The audio doesn't match the video until Shep is given the option to respond (paragon in this example) "I hope everyone is ready" and Liara says "You don't need to worry about that. You rallied who you could." And one of his eyes were white as he got up and touched Liara's shoulder (just before Liara asks "You can't sleep?").

Same things are happening for me as well... audio and lip syncing problems with Ashley Williams before Cronos Station. Ive seen reports that Tali's scene is messed up too... its probably safe to assume that all romance scenes are affected by Patch 1.05... its possible that other scenes in the main game are suffering the same bug.

Same issue, I haven't seen the rolling eye effect, but the audio is completely out of synch until you get the dialogue option.

Minor I guess, but it kind of ruins the romance scene

I disagree that it's minor --

I think this issue really needs to be addressed since it was working fine before the latest patch (1.05) was released.

Given that ME3 is likely not going to receive any more support - to leave the game like this with pivotal scenes broken with eye and lip-sync glitches (that were once working fine) - shouldn't happen.

Please look into this, Bioware / EA.  Thanks!

True, I shouldn't call it minor. I just meant that it may seem minor to the devs but I don't think it is since it ruins an entire scene.  So yeah, here's hoping it gets fixed

I've uploaded a video to YouTube showing what I've described in a previous post herein.  First, before the patch was installed and then after (how it plays now)...

Liara/Male Shep Romance:  In my playthroughs since Patch 1.05, the romance scene before the dream sequence is fine.  It's after the dream sequence where things go wrong.  Right after the dream sequence (during fade in from black), the video is choppy.  Notice Shepard's white left eye while lying down and when he gets up.  Liara's eyes kind of roll too.  The audio/video being out of sync is very noticeable - this happens until Shepard is given the opportunity to respond.  And then everything is normal again.   This is not quite as dramatic as the screenshots shared by AndreasShepard at the beginning of his thread (Kaiden/Male Shep Romance referenced by the OP) - but it does show in no uncertain terms how this scene has been affected in my playthroughs...

In my experience as well, this occurs during the pre-Chronos station romance scenes on both PS3 and Xbox360. I have not downloaded either Omega or Citadel.

It is important to point out that these scenes have been fine every time in the past. It only seems to be the most recent patch that has introduced the glitch.

This is consistent with the scenes for Female Shep/Kaidan, Male Shep/Ashley,and Male Shep/Liara. I can't confirm the others.

Please fix this, Bioware. This isn't what I paid for.

In the meantime, is there any way to revert to the previous patch on a console? Or do all title updates have to be removed altogether and the game left unpatched?.

Thanks for confirming all those other LI scenes and the PS3 as well. 

I still am baffled as to why a patch (1.05) that seemingly only addressed multiplayer issues would've affected animation in cinematic scenes?

There doesn't appear to be a way to remove individual patches on the consoles - you have to remove all title updates (all patches) - which then also renders you unable to use MP (for SP-only users, this might be moot).  But still, there have been some improvements from other previous patches that you would no longer get.

So BioWare really needs to fix this bug -- or they need to just re-release patch 1.04 and figure out a way to let us use that only.

cardinalboy,

I deleted the title updates and this did fix the problem for me. Hopefully, though, we can get some kind of rollback to 1.04.

Anyone know what happens when you delete the title updates? Are you still able to access DLC?
