[PC] Chase never triggered after first chase when playing Huntress

edited May 14 in Bug Reporting

After my first chase, which ended in downing the survivor, no more chases were triggered when chasing a survivor. No music played, no bloodlust gain or entity blocking, and no points related to chasing were earned.

Step 1 : Boot the game

Step 2 : Play as killer in a public match

Step 3 : In-game, start chasing a survivor

Step 4 : First chase triggered as normal and ended when survivor was downed.

Step 5: Any chase after this did not trigger, and no points related to chasing were earned.

Additional information

  • On current release version 7.7.1
  • Occured whilst playing Huntress
  • Perks used were Barbecue & Chili, Darkness Revealed, Lethal Persuer, Iron Maiden
  • Map was Disturbed Ward (Crotus Prenn Asylum)
  • Has occured to me only once in 4.8k hours of playing over 8 years.

Notice the lack of points in the Hunter category. This game ended with all survivors killed.

(P.S. uploading videos to this is difficult, and it doesn't like to let me. But just imagine all of your chases without chase music or accompanying bloodpoints, and no bloodlust.)

    Happeened to me on eyrie as huntress, so probably just a universal huntress bug regardless of any other factors.

    I've since found this happened to another person recently. They were playing Myers and were in Tier 3. It must be some rare bug or issue which means whatever is checked to determine whether you are in chase seems to think one of the requirements is not met (and can never be)

    This is happening to me regularly on huntress (probably 1 in 7 of my games) on many different maps.

    Just had the no-chase bug happen to me 3 games in a row as Ghostface.

    Platform: PC
    Killer: Ghostface
    Maps: Family Residence, Lampkin Lane, Mount Ormond Resort
    Build: Lethal Pursuer, Friends Til the End, Play With Your Food, Grim Embrace

    The lack of chase occurred when both in and out of my power. Occasionally it would start working again, then stop again, then start again - it was all very inconsistent throughout the match. I could be right next to, or even hugging a running survivor and the chase would not activate.

    While I did not video record my gameplay, it looks exactly like this clip I found on Reddit of a user suffering the same issue:
