Game Only Lags As Survivor
I honestly have no idea if this is a bug or what, so you can expect to see this exact same post in bug reports too.
Whenever I play survivor I get insane lag. Literally just had a match where I got stuck vaulting a window and then couldn't wiggle when the killer carried me to a hook, then couldn't even struggle, but yet the game kept me on hook anyway until the bar depleted.
Yesterday I had matches where I was bouncing around the joint, but yet, i'll switch roles to play as killer over and over, repeated matches, with no lag at all. The survivors don't experience any lag issues and my movement isn't jagged or stuttery etc. So what the hell is going on? I'd actually like a response to this.

It's daily, and frequent. Not all the time; but very frequent and only in survivor matches. I'll be laggy and then play killer or a different game and have no issues. Very baffling. It could just be massive coincidences where I lag spike and then i'm fine in other matches and games, and then when I go back to survivor it spikes again; but really, what the hell kind of odds are those? XD

Do you check your ping to the server in lobby? you can see it around chat box. Avoid anything >150ms.

I'm on ps4, and even when I play on Ethernet I definitely feel the lag playing as survivor. I can honestly say its more noticeable than before dedicated servers went live, but that isn't saying much in comparison to the p2p days.

Same, it only started post 4.1.0
I play on ethernet and every other game, and the killer role experience no lag at all. But the moment I play survivor it lags to all hell

My ping goes as high as 85 and as low as 52 (from when i've checked it in game). No idea why it lags me so much. Literally only as survivor

I get lag as the killer all the time. I've found that it's usually someone in the lobby with a poor connection because they're in a different country. It can be really frustrating.
