PC - Survivor Friend and Killer Get Softlocked
Description
Step 1 : Boot the game and play event mode
Step 2 : Play as survivor with a friend in a public match
Step 3 : In-game, flashlight save your friend as the killer auto-hooks
Step 4 : Friend and killer are now softlocked. Killer cannot hook nor drop survivor, and survivor cannot wiggle out.
Additional information
- Friend was playing Jeff
- Killer was playing Dredge
- Friend was using perks Windows of Opportunity, Distortion, Resilience, and Unbreakable
- Map - The Thompson House, Coldwind Farm
- Issue only happened once in my case, but was significant in the fact that it stopped the game, so I am reporting the issue.
Documents
I have an almost 7 minute recording of the endgame. Sadly I did not clip the flashlight save or up until the last gen popped.
I restarted my game afterwards to make sure that didn't happen again and therefore don't have the log.
