Steps to Reproduce
- Make sure a survivor is afflicted with the exposed effect.
- Increase your DPI while youre dashing
- Attack the survivor since the game doesn't know whether or not it's a basic attack or a special attack
Explanation
Chucky (The Good Guy) is able to cancel his slice and dice attack and immediately basic attack. If the survivor is exposed, he will be able to close distance and immediately down them.
I've attached a video of a Chucky I went against that ran Hubris and was able to down me by using this bug. The other video is him using his power to down Rebecca, who was exposed from Friends Til The End. I also attached a screenshot of the endgame chat where I asked them how they were able to down me and they said they used the bug to cancel their dash and immediately swing.
They were able to recreate this multiple times in a match consistently, I went against the same person again and they were also using the same bug to down survivors, so I assume it's easy to recreate if you know how to do it.
EDIT: Apparently this has to do with switching your DPI, which somehow confuses the game into thinking you're performing a basic attack instead of a special attack while you Slice and Dice.
