Steps:
1. From the select character screen all the way until I log off my camera will not stop rotating in any direction it wants to! The only time it stops is during cutscenes. It makes it very difficult to target the right NPC's, monsters etc, and even though I can just about control it using my analogue stick, it's starting to really irritate me.
From what I've been told, the animation lock is only supposed to make the camera rotate when you have been idle for a period of time. This needs fixing!

It is NOT my controllers, however it does seem to only affect 360 pad users and possibly some mouse users from what I have seen.

This needs addressing! Other people MUST be having issues with spinning cameras surely?

How do I record game footage to show my problem easier? It needs to be seen and it needs to be fixed because it's doing my head in.

This is up again, still happening, not even being acknowledged! It gives me headaches and eye ache constantly fighting the camera spin.

Someone else had this problem and switched to a PS3 controller which solved the problem. This shows that it is some kind of in game coding bug/error to do with 360 controller support/function. Please get this sorted or at least looked at!
