When wiping CCTV tapes, it no longer sparks like it used to. It now just flashes and then that is it.

The Overwhelming Swagger of Roberto Vargas
Platform: Xbox
Location: Sapienza, World of Tomorrow
Frequency: Only in this auto-save, everytime I reload it.
Description: Francesca freezes and doesn’t react to anything except death.
Steps to reproduce:
-
Follow the golf coach mission story, poison the champagne with Emetic Poison.
-
Complete the mission story, Francesca arrives drinks the champagne. Auto save occurs while her dialogue has changed to indicate she is emetic poisoned.
-
Load Auto-Save.
-
Francesca begins her emetic affected dialogue. In a few seconds however, she is overwhelmed by 47’s aura and becomes a mannequin.
She doesn’t react to coins, illegal items, even at gunpoint.
Francesca even ignores her call.
She is very much mortal though, but she doesn’t make any noise when attacked.
This is honestly a harmless bug that doesn’t severely affect gameplay, nor does it seem very common.

But it’s weird as hell. I just wonder, how did this happen? I am no professional programmer, but I really can’t think of anything other than the hypothesis that the devs forgot how to code.

I am a professional programmer, and to me it seems likely that the save-and-load in this situation somehow doesn’t restore her state correctly, in a way that she winds up being flagged as uninterruptable but also is not running the routine that would clear the “uninterruptable” status.

Can confirm this is still happening. Ducks never spawn for me no matter what I try including:
- restarting mission
- restarting game
- disruspting nurse route
- throwing different items randomly in the water in front of the nurse
Any help/update appreciated!

There seem to be some pretty silly bugs with fps being bound to animations during some cutscenes. Anything above 60fps can cause glitches. As you can see in this clip when my fps is unlocked Diana’s leg gets in the way of the whole kill cutscene whereas in the 2nd clip when I lock it to 60fps via Nvidia, it’s fine:-
Another bug during the Silvio Caruso smother kill. After the kill animation 47 does a weird glitched floating animation. This one doesn’t seem to be caused by fps like the issue I posted just above though and seems to happen every time:-

Hi Tom,
thank you for all the bug reports, I admire your dedication. And I am so happy I did not buy a PS5. To IOI: no way I buy 007 until WOA is fixed…

Thanks Floople. I’ve seen something similar with the robot arm spawning in floating in Miami. This Caruso one seems to happen all the time though. Out of curiosity I’ll try sitting for a while before starting the mission to see if that helps and maybe other starting locations. I doubt it’s my device as I have a pretty newish comp with a 4090.

Penelope Graves no longer stops by the grandfather clock anymore. I have tested in an unmodded non peacock version of the game and she still doesn’t stop by there anymore.

Just tried it on PS4, and she stopped at the clock as normal the first time (at about the same timestamp as in the video). Second time around she didn’t stop because Rose was already doing his interaction with the clock. Third time around she stopped again.
And for good measure, after looking at the Reddit thread where someone was speculating that it only happened if Rose was killed first, I rigged the safe (and also had Berg blow himself up in his lab). Graves still stopped at the clock as normal.
