https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/457737/bhvr-is-neglecting-hybrid-control-schemes-accessibility-and-exploits

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE:

When using a joystick and mouse at the same time (hybrid controls), and both inputs active at the same time (moving with analog stick and looking around with mouse), the changing of control schemes suppress updates and causes pallet stuns not to be registered (given the client side authority).

This is not a new issue, I've seen it used on youtube on multiple occasions for things such as walking through exit gates, holding games hostage, even with tutorials. This is likely connected to the update where Trickster was released, as it introduced issues related to control scheme updates, with lag, inputs being ignored and updates being suppressed.

Hopefully this exploit is severe enough to cause the accessibility issue they introduced and acknowledged years ago to be fixed along with it.

PLATFORM:

PC - STEAM

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:

  • Launch game as killer
  • Have analog and mouse input active simultaneously
  • Get pallet stunned
  • Pallet stun is ignored

Framerate probably impacts it.

It happened multiple times in my game, so is highly reproduceable.
