Bug #454

Nurse's power is critically broken and doesn't work for more than 2 years now

Status:	New
Priority:	Critical
Added by:	ks_carburator on December 22, '25
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	9.3.2
Actual Result:	Ugly broken animations, the inability to properly use a character's power, since where you actually spawn after blink is completely out of your control. You use blink correctly, but the server spawns you incorrectly, making the killer a truly unpleasant to play as.
Expected Result:	Correct server position confirmation after blinks, correct, unbroken model animations, and the ability to properly blink from the basement. Removed rubber banding during fatigue and after blinks. This is the technical state it was in before the release of the chapter with Chucky.
Severity:	Major
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	The video clip mentions a broken FOV, there is no need to pay attention to this, it's already been fixed. But that doesn't change the fact that she's completely broken and unplayable for more than 2 years now, and nobody cares about that. What else needs to happen for the developers to do something about this?

Steps to Reproduce

1. Start the trial on any map
2. Try to blink and use her ability. Near a large number of objects, collisions, near survivors, in constructions. It doesn't require any special conditions to appear.

Explanation

Nurse can't fly out of the basement in every map, only if you stand in the very center, but you won't be able to fly as far as possible from the basement because of this. Broken fatigue animation, broken "frozen" fingers animation during the blink, broken generator kick animation. Also during fatigue, she's getting stopped and slowed down by the server, which is constantly rubber-banding her back. When you land after blink, the game can randomly teleport you 0,5 meter back or to the side or even spawn you in a random place on your trajectory. Literally, you can blink right into a surv right into their model, but at the last second, just as you've swang, the server spawns you 5 meters away. Another situation: you can see an animation on your screen that your blink was blocked or swallowed, as if you didn't charge it enough, and a millisecond later server spawns you at the point you supposedly "couldn't reach." This is extremely annoying and disorienting. And this can happen several times per trial, regardless of your ping.
