in Bug Reporting
  • See the linked video for visual reference of what I describe below.
  • This bug occurred while winding up a hatchet near a pallet as a survivor dropped it.
  • A stun didn't happen on my screen. I couldn't to determine if a stun happened for the survivor, because they were on console and couldn't provide any feedback after the match.
  • From that point on, I was stuck in a pose with left arm up as if holding a hatchet, but without one in hand, moving at reduced speed and unable to give any mouse input, either directional or clicks.
  • Only the WASD keys worked. Q and E didn't turn the camera.
  • It was impossible to interact with any object. Approaching a pallet, generator, or hatch didn't provide the prompt to kick/close.
  • Getting pallet stunned didn't resolve the issue and no visible stun even occurred on my end.
  • Flashlight blinds didn't solve the problem either.
  • Unplugging and re-plugging mouse and keyboard didn't have any effect.
  • According to the survivors (see end of the linked video) my character had no animation and no collision.


POSSIBLE STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Step 1 : Play the Huntress with the specified load-out and map.

Step 2 : Wind up a hatchet near a pallet as a survivor drops it.

Step 3 : Pretty good job so far.

DOCUMENTS

NOTE: names are not censored because there's no name & shaming in the footage. The survivors actually tried to help and they were good sports and we also had a good laugh post match. Props to them if anything.

The bug occurring is shown at the very beginning. The remainder shows everything I tried to resolve, plus the tally screen and the chat with the survivors describing their POV of the issue.
