What happened to facial animations?

[Chro]

Greetings commanders, since Update 6 every NPC both at Stations and at Planetary Settlements have no facial animations when talking to the player, their mouths wont move and they wont make any expression at all. Is this happening to anyone else?

 

[Onofreski]

Same happens to me, hope they will fix soon

 

[Gwyther]

Typical Fdevs.
Fix some bugs and then create more.

Which station is that guy in? And are you expecting a facial from him? In the sense of an expression, as I don't know if he is meant to talk.

Doing facials? Or just talking without moving his face? I'm confused.

Maybe both. Such is the way of Conan. All hail Team CoCo

Preach to the choir, friend. I'm asking this since day one of update 6. In fact, this ridiculous bug was present at "testing" Alpha. After this "Beta" upgrade 4/5 the NPCs lips started to move. Now, with Odyssey Beta upgrade 6, the NPCs are muted again.

Perhaps they're training to be ventriloquists?

Too much botox going around?

My NPCs are working fine. At least their faces... can't comment on other bodily functions.

Steven Seagal is the new actor behind the facial expression. Feel free to use this chart to help you.

Meanwhile, my character is stuck between 2 settings : angry math teacher and mischievous elf.

the ammount of old bugs they reimplement is astonishing.
they have to change something. i´ve no idea what, but they have to change it.

it should be the exception, not the norm.

Thanks for the replies guys, im glad im not the only one with this issue, and jokes aside its a very immersion breaking bug, oh well, hopefully they can get a hotfix for this so we dont have to wait for an update 7. Hopefully some CM is also aware of this issue!
