Bug? Anyone noticed glitches? Mini-teleports?

I just had a match against four "not-Steam" players.

It was on Hawkins, as Nurse.

At some point, tracking survivors, I've felt a kind of lag/glitch while blinking and I've found myself landing several meter away from the location I was supposed to be. (Not a rollback, a kind of teleport).

Later, while carrying a survivor was almost at the hook when I got teleported through the adjacent wall which means the survivor escaped my grasp.

Several times, I'm chasing a survivor and the tracks stop in the middle of nowhere. Once, using "No Where To Hide", I see the survivor on an adjacent room, a level above. That position made no sense given the doors/stairs locations. I could have made it by blinking (and I did) but a survivor on foot? No way.

I've killed them all (well, I've dropped one on the hatch but the way I see it, that's a down.)

I don't think anyone was cheating because the "glitches" felt so random it didn't help them much (but it was certainly a handicap for me.)

Nobody was marked as lagging.

Since it's a new engine, I'm wondering if it's somewhat related.

Anyone else got something similar?

edit: I've tried to send this as a bug report to zendesk and it failed. I've reported that reporting bug to the bug section of the forum.

    I had some funky shenanigans as killer and survivor. As killer I was glitching over vaults, my FPS dropped to 5 every time I got a hit, as survivor I was rubberbanding on maps and then suddenly standing somewhere else, killers somewhat teleported towards the hooks before hooking. That engine change really messed things up again

    I must say it's kind of reassuring. I was starting to wonder if this was done by some cheater.

    Latest patch updated the games engine to Unreal engine 5 causing mass rubberbanding Fps drops and broken animatyions

    I just had a killer game where I was rubberbanding all over the place.

    Yeah, i was rubberbanding a lot. Curiously, it was only after hooking someone and when kicking gens. Never during a chase, thank God.

    After playing a few more rounds here’s what I’ve gathered.

    • rubber banding on both survivors and killers
    • Getting stuck in windows while vaulting as a killer
    • Massive frame drops from the “hit” effect on both survivors and killers
    • Random teleporting/rollbacks on both killers and survivors
    • Xenomorph turrets somehow teleporting to a different spot as to where I placed them
    • Skull Merchant drones glitching high in the air or in the ground
    • Undestroyable pallet in RPD stairway if you are trying to kick it from the top level (kicking from the stairs work fine tho)
    • Killers having this weird vacuum effect towards hooks (like survivors had many years back with the pallets)

    My 3 main problems are rubberband, constant skipping and sometimes my game just completely freezes. I can tab out and do everything else but my game is just frozen and I have to use Task Manager.
