The Ghoul can instantly M1 with no animation mid vault

edited May 16 in Bug Reporting

The title says it all. The Ghoul is able to instantly hit survivors with a basic attack mid-vault using a Kagune Leap. The Survivor goes down with no attack animation from the ghoul, and it happens instantly as they vault. It's extremely frustrating to go against.

PLATFORM: PC

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: Play against The Ghoul. And stand near a dropped pallet or window vault.

Screenshots/video:

I don't have screenshots/Video because it happened for the first time on my side and so how would I be able to preemptively know to screenshot/record it.

    The Ghoul's power works similarly to Wesker. If you are right next to the pallet or window when he completes a vault with his power, it will hit you automatically. Now there is a known bug where he's hitting you from farther away than he should, but hitting after a vault is part of his power.

    Edit: if the mods closed a discussion, it is because you either are making a post unrelated to bug reporting or you did not follow the bug report template. That isn't their fault, it is yours. Don't get mad at the mods when you don't read the rules.

    This is not a bug, Kaneki's power works similarly to Wesker's...

    Not a bug, Kaneki has the same hit after power vault mechanic that Wesker does.

    yall can't sit there and tell me wesker can do this because i have never once seen a wesker able to do this. even legion after vaulting has somewhat of a window before he can hit after a vault.

    He's not swinging immediately, it's an auto-hit mechanic that triggers if you are too close to him after the vault, and yes, Wesker has it too. On Wesker's release, people would run through him and vault over the object during his vault cooldown when he couldn't interact with anything, essentially meaning he'd be sabotaging himself by performing any power vault. This mechanic was added a long time ago to prevent that so his vault wouldn't be useless. If you've never seen a Wesker do this, then you weren't on top of him after his vault. Granted, Kaneki's appears to trigger if you go too close at any point during the vault, which could be a bug because Wesker's only triggers at the end, but the mechanic itself is intentional.

    there are times i vault back over against the ghoul and i do not get hit. so that's what i just don't understand why it sometimes happens and sometimes it doesn't.

    Yeah I have run into this too in few matches I think even the Ghoul was like why are you standing and hit me down. :P

    Tis an autohit. Wesker and houndmasters dog do it too

    this is definitely not the same thing. it's not like he can immediately vault back. i totally understand how wesker and the dog work, this does not work the same way.
