[PC] Adrenaline and Downed animation
Hey all!
So, was injured and got hit again by the killer, so I was just starting to go into the downed animation when the last gen was complete and my adrenaline kicked in. But because I was just going into the downed animation, even with adrenaline triggered, I was unable to sprint away. Instead the downed animation just kept going.
Then for a split second I was standing bolt upright, killer hit me and I was fully downed.
First time this has ever happened for me. Normally the character just stopss following the animation and yeets on out of there x'D
Bit annoying, but these things happen! :D

Back when exhaustion doesn't existed and sprint perks had an individual cooldown when you got downed in the "getting downed animation" adrenaline got prioritized. So it actually cancled this animation and you were able to run. Once they added exhaustion with 1.5.0 it changed to what it is now.
I think? they did this as some "counterplay". I mean when you got grabbed and adrenaline kicks in the killer can drop you and hit you before you're able to run away too. And i believe it's all intended.
But yea some people would love to see adrenaline prioritized over the downed animation. But the devs also love smoothness and polishedness things so that the game looks better.
The chances that they'll "fix" that are pretty low, sadly

Fair enough, that makes sense. I've never experienced the killer dropping me when adrenaline kicks in? :S Not seen that on anyone yet. And it wasn't more so the, not being able to sprint away, but the fact that I couldn't even step away from the going down animation.
But balance and smoothness is best all round :D
