A bug or a cheat?
I'm asking this because I've never seen it before.
I was playing a round and a killer was coming at me, just as I dropped a flash bang my movement controls froze. I could only use my camera. I couldn't wiggle or do anything. I was pulled off the hook twice unable to move and was a sitting duck for an easy kill. as soon as the match was over everything worked fine again.
It feels like someone cheated to get a kill. Before I upload a video and go through the proper reporting channels I wanted to be sure.
This is BS if it is a cheat.

This sounds more like a bug than anything else, as it corresponded with your action (dropping a flashbang). Lag spikes can cause very odd things to happen.

okay I just wanted to check before I put all the work in to report.

Not being able to move for the entire match after one Flashbang seems more like a cheat than a bug. Getting a freeze for several seconds would be a bug, remainder of match sounds closer to the cheats like when survivors extend blinds on a killer.

Did the game freeze after you used flashbang?
Or it just was like you pressed a button and immediately lose the control of the character?

it was as I pressed the button and tried to run away I realized that I couldn't move at all and couldn't for the rest of the match. I could turn the camera though. I'm honestly leaning toward a cheat but I'm not sure what's up. Can cheats be used on consoles? the killer I was against was on playstation. everyone was except for 1 survivor who had the crossplay icon.

I don't think that the cheat that prevents survivor to move exist in DbD.
Besides, we had similar bug when Resident evil chapter was released or in 5.1 mid-chapter.
I remember when I had the same issue on RPD like my teammates but killer hadn't.
But in my case my screen was frozen for a second (it was noticeable).
Maybe later, I'll find a thread about it and public the link here.

Ok, nevermind.
Seems like that hackers created something new while I wasn't playing DbD.
Damn, now I have less interest to play it :(
