Doc bugged after last update??

Playing on Xbox. When the update came out I went up against a Doc first or second day. After the match they asked me if they were moving faster. They said they felt faster, but I hadn't noticed honestly. That was maybe last week and I have not played any Docs since then. Most weren't very good and I had escaped, but I just played 2 in a row that were not bad killers and I think Doc does indeed move faster in Punishment mode now. I would be very far and he would catch up too fast, way faster than other killers of the same skill I had been playing the past few days. No speed buff perks or anything, I think BHVR should check into this.

I'm going to try and do testing on my own to confirm if this is a thing or not. But the Docs do seem like they were catching up a lot faster than other killers I have been playing.

    Maybe you missed it but I had a typo in there, because I did not play against a Doc since then. Today I got a few in a row and it seemed like they were indeed faster because they caught up to me in situations other killers didn't.

    Post something constructive for once.

    Do you play on Xbox? No.

    Do you know what a bug is? Apparently not.

    You have nothing constructive to add. Bye.

    Didn't they have 2 programming teams: one for consoles and one for PC? At least, I remember Devs saying so during one of the spring 2017 streams.

    Btw, weren't you in a "jail" before?

    I see, you got kicked out from the Jail Club. You couldn't even remember their first rule. Though, it's not surprising...

    Really? How fast is he going now? I wonder if the same bug is happening on PS4 and PC.

    I don't know. The first guy messaged me and asked If I thought he was moving faster. I had not noticed and said no thinking the guy was just imagining it. But then I played 2 Docs in a row that were catching up to me in spots other killers weren't. Like he had 1 token of PWYF or something.

    Not sure how to test it. I made this thread to see if anyone else noticed this. I'm willing to accept it's just my imagination but the first guy saying something suggests to me that maybe there something going on here.

    Go into a private match with doc, a level with a large building that is consistent. Run along that wall land time it. Do it multiple times to find a consistent time.
    Repeat on the same level with trapper, then wraith, and ever standard running speed killer. When you have consistent numbers on all of them you will know if doc is faster. Get on it and report back with video evidence

    I played a game on PS4 as Doc tonight and he didn’t feel any faster. Maybe it’s a PC/Xbox only bug? I’m going to play some more Doc games and see if I feel faster in any of them.

    Pc there does seem to be a slight increase, there's also a lot of rank 2-4 docs playing right now as well with best perks, items, add ons as well. That and most of the maps are the best ones for him.

    It might just be his FoV i know that people claim similar things in the past when they changes the FoV of some killer. It gives the feeling of speed without changing anything.  
      
    Also it might have seemed like he got to you faster if you were basing it on when you got the heartbeat. Perks like Monitor and abuse reduce heartbeat rage and doc has  the calm addon that reduces it more while in punishment mode. It also make you hear a heartbeat noise as if you were 9n the edge of the radius, fooling your sense of where he is.  
      
    Those are 2 things that could easily explain it, but we wont know for sure until its properly tested or checked by the devs.

    I know consoles are currently experiencing a major fps issue right now (i play PS4) so that could also have been affecting the way he felt.

    I've played quite a few more Docs since posting this and it seems like, no, he is not faster.

    However upon some total recall, I now remember that both the games where he felt faster to me, and the game where the Doc had asked if he was faster, were on Mother's Dwelling. I will make efforts to test this, but if anyone else can confirm or deny that'd be super.

    Xbox, Doc, Mother's Dwelling.
