is deception supposed to make us still open the locker or is it a bug?

i just been playing around with deception recently, pairing it with quick and quiet, head on, dance with me, and lightweight. i noticed that when i fast vault a locker it still opens the locker.

im not sure if it always opens or just sometimes. i havent been watching that closely. i cant exactly articulate why the opening animation gets in the way of tactful use of deception. i just know that it doesnt seem smooth to use for solid mind gaming.

maybe it has something to do with me being on console and its not the same on PC. i havent tested it on my PC account yet. does anyone else feel the same way or does anyone know something about using this perk that i dont?

    The lockers door open and close since you are faking jumping into the locker.

    ok. well, does anyone else think it should be changed to not open doors? it would be a lot smoother and more practical to use if we didnt have to wait for the animation in order to keep moving to make another play. for example, if i run into shack and hit the locker then go to vault the window with quick and quiet to get away i get stuck(so to speak) on the locker and that makes it awkward and very difficult to use effectively.

    I think you're having a console issue. You can cleanly run past a locker and deception it without pause on PC.

    The door opening and closing is intentional but you are not supposed to be stuck during je animation.

    which console are you experiencing this on? Do you happen to have a clip/can make one?
