Devs know that scratch marks have been bugged for 3 months?

it feels as if everyone has been using Lightweight but at the end of the match no one is using it

    Supposedly they are not bugged. It's just that they haven't worked properly in a quite a while (at least 2 years). They changed them and now we have scratch marks that randomly skip a few patches or disappear into thin air.

    Yeah, it's really not good. The worst thing is that the killer role is already quite hard for people with hearing impairments anyway and now the visual aid that is supposed to ensure a killer will stay in chase doesn't work properly.

    It seems to work slightly better on the best graphics but since DBD is not the most optimised game and there are lots of console players that doesn't help much.

    I really hope they announce plans to fix this issue soon.

    Yeah I've noticed something bizzare going on with scratch marks lately. A lot of times I've been chasing someone and they just literally end in the most random places I generally assume they are running some scratch related perks but they aren't. I'll scan the area and can't see any trace or find them hiding.

    Its almost like lucky break is activity mid chase randomly even though they aren't running that perk or injured.
