I put in an official bug report support ticket several days ago. Multiple prong approach. I know sometimes the devs peruse these forums. Also, if I make enough of a ruckus it will be seen. My play-through of 90 hours is completely blocked and I am not happy. Things were well prior to this previous patch. I am hoping that come Monday there is another hotfix to fix a lot of the issues this current patch introduced. This was a step backward, not forward.
