First-person camera spins uncontrollably in Killer mode post-update

Status:	Open
Priority:	Critical
Added by:	c...4@gmail.com on May 25, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	9.6.2
Actual Result:	When I turn to look left or right the camera does a 360 spin. When I chase someone the camera won’t let me look on my own it turns the camera for me and does a 360 spin.
Expected Result:	The camera should remain not spin do a 360 spin when I use the right joystick turn look left or right.
Severity:	Major
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Switch
Additional Notes & Comments:	Fully calibrated Nintendo Switch control sticks via system settings (hardware centers perfectly with no drift in other games).Updated all controller firmware.Swapped to multiple different Killer characters.Adjusted in-game Killer camera sensitivities.The issue persists across all tests, indicating an internal polling rate or camera matrix conflict introduced by the latest patch on the Switch's 30 FPS framework.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Boot the game on Nintendo Switch
2. Select any Killer (e.g., Ghost Face, Huntress) and load into a match.
3. Joysticks on Nintendo calibrated
4. The camera will immediately spiral into an infinite, automated spinning loop.

Explanation

Since the recent update altering Killer input handling and camera overrides, the first-person camera randomly spins in circles autonomously when playing the Killer role.This happens completely on its own while standing totally still, even when out of a chase and with no other players nearby. Crucially, this issue occurs only on the Killer role; the third-person camera functions completely normally without any spinning when playing as a Survivor.
