[XB1] Killers seeing my aura without me even using Object of Obsession

Since the update, I've had match, after match, after match, after match of Killers somehow knowing EXACTLY where I am. Twice they bee-lined straight to my spawn location and didn't even bother checking around the area, no, they knew EXACTLY where I was hiding and came straight for me, even without leaving scratch marks.

I'm using niche perks to learn the new map: Detective's Hunch, Small Game, Windows of Opportunity, and Left Behind. Note that NONE of these perks are Object of Obsession.

I have been clipping these incidents:

  1. https://gameclips.io/Nos37/2c072334-2cc9-46fb-a61d-24718e82cfea
  2. https://gameclips.io/Nos37/ca2384b2-de7c-4c1d-897e-f75fb90e49c9
  3. https://gameclips.io/Nos37/dc1e2142-3a8e-4e91-a603-818ec7e72f00

All I can do is file a wallhacking report against the Killer and move on to the next match, only for it to happen again. Please, I hope this gets fixed ASAP.

    Only thing I see is the killer finding you. Nothing weird here to me.

    Killer finding me in the most mundane places, nowhere near gens, and within moments of the match starting, match after match?

    Once? It happens.

    Twice? It happens.

    Three times? Meh, coincidence.

    Four times? Coincidence..?

    Five times? For real. #########?

    Six times? You're joking...

    Seven times? GTFO of here with this BS!

    Eight times? That's it! I'm filing a bug report.

    ----

    There were clips I didn't bother taking when it first happened, because: it happens; and there are clips I didn't take because it was against a Myers and I didn't stick around for 10mins waiting for the match to end to see if it was Scratched Mirror. Even if I had taken clips, like you said, all that will be shown is the Killer finding me. How the **** am I supposed to resolve this then?

    Note in Clip 6 that the Executioner sent the downed Survivor to a Cage, not a Hook, so no BBQ. I was breifly in line of sight of Killer, but he was busy looking at the ground for the Cage banishment animation. I did not heal, so no Nurse's Calling. I did not run, so no scratch marks. No gen popped near me, so no Bitter Murmur. There was no blood trail behind me by the time the Killer showed up. He didn't even check ANY other part of the building (downstairs area, lockers, go for the gen); no, he came STRAIGHT to my spot!

    In wich rank are you playing?

    Did you ever check if he had Spies from the Shadows? And even without that perk, Killers have a good understanding of the crows and what it means if they fly away or reappear. Some killers have just a good idea what Survivors do and how they think. Also your clothing is not the... let's say, camouflagy one. I can't tell how often I found a survivor just because I saw his her red jacket in the background.

    "Also your clothing is not the... let's say, camouflagy one. I can't tell how often I found a survivor just because I saw his her red jacket in the background." - @LapisInfernalis

    Spirit can see Survivor's clothes through solid objects / different levels of the map?

    It was just an example. Footsteps are also audible quite well especially with a good headset. Even across different levels. Sometimes I just hear the Survivor's breathing, since some of them are quite loud, even if not injured. Hell... TrU3Ta1ent found me once, because he heard my character's breathing through the ceiling.

    Believe me, sometimes I also hide somewhere and the killer knows exactly where. But I know that I get these lucky ones too as killer, so I don't complain. Maybe you are really unlucky.

    I rewatched all you clips to evaluate them and what might be the case.

    1. This was just unlucky. He came there randomly and he saw your arms sticking out.

    2. He probably heard the loud queeeaaak Feng made when falling down and came to look for you. Unfortunately he came from the perfect angle to see you.

    3. She heard your footsteps on the metal. She was probably not searching for you directly, though.

    4. He only saw you because you ran. You should have just waited to be sure he really saw you.

    5. He saw you from distance and guessed you were still there since he did not see any scratch marks leading away.

    6.Here I'm clueless. Maybe he just saw the rest of your tormented trail when passing the house or he wanted to check on the Gen and found you randomly.
