Movement lock issues?

[Mysteltain]

I've noticed that, since the patch, when interacting with certain NPCs or objects that normally lock your position (Summoning Bells, NPCs with dialogue options, interactable doors, etc.) that after exiting their text or menu, your character will be locked in place--unable to move or even jump--for about five or six seconds. Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm a PS3 player, by the way.

Lag. A lot of people are logging in today to try the new update, putting stress on the servers.
Considering the possible exploits that would cause closing interfaces while moving (items duplication glitches?) the system locks you in place while interacting with them, and only lets you move until your clients gets confirmation from the server. With lag, of course, confirmation takes a few extra seconds to arrive.

That's what I thought initially, as well, but it wasn't lag. Other players were clearly moving and jumping around nearby. And something about this lock just felt...different from the normal movement lock. I don't know how to describe it. Maybe I'm just imagining things, what with the actual issue of the XHB delay messing with me, but it certainly didn't seem normal.

yep noticed the lag thing when leaving a merchant today, also had an FC mate mention getting stuck in midair after dismounting his choco. we are both ps3 players

i highly doubt this is just a coincidence
