Clown Issues
This is a list of bugged issues with Clown on PS4:
- Gas clouds are intermitently broken up when a bottle is tossed at even slightly high up an obstacle (wall, tree etc). Making it so survivors can avoid intoxication.
- Survivors get a speed boost when hit directly by an Afterpiece bottle.
- FPS drops when a bottle shatters instantly intoxicating a survivor.
- Survivors can fast vault windows while intoxicated on approach (a few steps before prompt appears).
As a Clown main I hate this. I have opted to stop playing Clown until these are fixed. It makes his power drop to 50% strength, and is incredibely frustrating to play.

I only saw this now, but I can confirm the fast vaulting. You intoxicate them and they still fast vault the window, making the Clowns power much weaker at loops.

Have you had experience with the other issues mentioned, by any chance?

I was playing a few matches as the Clown just now. I didn't really experience survivors avoiding intoxication when the cloud breaks, but indeed it does.
The speedboost I'm not sure. If they get one, it last for one or maybe half a second, because if it's there, it's barely noticeable. Not enough to get too much distance, but should still be looked that if it's happening.
I didn't experience FPS drops, but I play on PC, performance on consoles is not the best, unfortunately.

The speedboost when hit directly may be linked to the fps drops on console :/
