Is BHVR Doing something that is causing mass bugs?
My last match was against a Hag.
The hag had no terror radius EVER. There were no sound notifications when anyone ran through a trap, or when she teleported near you. I'm talking dead silent. All other noises were fine. She didn't need traps to teleport to. It was like she could teleport anywhere she wanted. I was literally crouching in a dead zone injured because I was so confused and she teleports right in front of me and downs me.
Again, No noise but her hissing sounds. I was wondering if it was a hack or something, but then I got into a match with a Legion, and he had NO music. There was no chase music. No music when he's looming near. His terror radius was constant and the same audible level. It never got louder or quieter.
When I open chests, it shows me a med kit, and I pick up a tool box.
When I get to the stats, there are no rankings.
What the hell is going on? I'm on PS4 and it's already a terrible customer experience.The lag, the teleporting, the freezing etc. Now this? Don't they have a PTB for this stuff?

A month ago I had that where a oni had zero terror radius

Could this be some kind of cheat? I don't even know what to think anymore. DBD is the strangest game experience I've ever had lol.

With how regular sounds bugs are happening rather recently I'd say it might be that the sounds are called incorrectly? They seem to be updating sounds as well, so new files (names) might simply slip through.
One of the reasons PTBs should be used for trying to break things, not just trying out new characters

Also to note- when I load into a match, all my perks registered as Adrenaline. Every single one. After 10 seconds they reverted back to normal.
In one match, I hopped thru a window using Lithe, my screen froze as usual (because console players aren't worth BHVR's time), and then I had infinite sprint burst the whole match.
I message the Killer to apologize.

sounds like a rusted shackle/grandma's heart addon combo. prevents survivors from knowing when a trap is triggered and reduces the hags terror radius to 0 when a trap is triggered.
Or its a hack/bug.

They really need a Bug fix chapter just looking at the patch notes unfortunately they should wait to implement anything from the art team because they spend time fixing visual bugs even if it's a 2 minute fix that's 2 minutes towards a bigger issue.

That's a thought. But does that combo prevent her from having a terror radius even if she's right on top of you? And does it stop chase music?
0 -
not chase music but it should remove terror radius for a short time after her teleport.

The Hag was using the Rusty Shackles add-on, which causes your traps to be triggered silently and your teleports to be silent. The Legion was using the Iridescent Button add-on, which makes his terror radius map-wide and at the same level for as long as he's in Frenzy.
The visual icon bugs are acknowledged bugs. The lack of ranks is due to an MMR test.
But yeah, the game gets more and more buggy every update. It's gotten to the point where I worry if the next update will even keep the game playable - just look at Resident Evil, or Binding of Kin.

Again-
And I really appreciate your reply, so it's not that I'm arguing it.
The Hag had NO terror radius EVER.
EVER. I mean i don't play Hag, so do those Add-ons make her ninja Hag? Does it entirely eliminate her terror radius for the entire match?
She could be right beside me, and no heartbeat.
The Legion had NO chase music. No music at all. Nothing. And I know Legions funky Add-ons, it was like a muted heartbeat- barely audible. Never changing. Even on the hook. Not that one where it sounds like he's up your bunghole no matter where you are on the map.
I just had a match with Spirit. her phasing made no noise. I know Spirit, I play her. No Add-on makes her completely silent. You can always hear her phasing.
But MMR test. That answers my other questions, so thanks!

I too have had matches where the killer has no terror radius. I have had it with several different killers but it happens mostly with Nemesis for me. I check perks and add ons after the match and there is no reason the should not have had TR.
Sometimes sounds seemed delayed too. Like pallet kicks or pain grunts after being healed.

I was chasing a trickster with no TR that was chasing a survivor. Forgot to check if he had tinkerer.

Hm, those audio bugs sounds very familiar. I'm pretty sure something like this happened between Chains of Hate and Silent Hill, where killer TRs and chase music were broken and either never happened or were default chase musics/TR even on killers with unique themes.
Last time I don't think it took too long to fix, so assuming more people start reporting this, hopefully the return of ninja Hag and (judging by your Spirit encounter) old Prayer Beads Spirit won't be for very long. Will keep an eye (or ear) out in my games - in the meantime, Spine Chill might be an idea to counter BHVR's coding genius.

I'm on PC and I have had it happen.

Did she have any kind of undetectable granting perks such as beast of pray, Trail of Torment, or tinkerer or the above mentioned undetectable add-ons?
All Temp status' have been bugging out since the last major patch where they'd randomly become permanent including things like Movement Speed ups and downs/Blind/Oblivious/Undetectable.
As for legion/spirit idk but it sounds like the sound bugs that have been plaguing killers for years are sadly now coming full circle to hurt the survivors.
