High |
| Added by: | Anonymous on July 25, '26 |
| Assigned to: |
Unassigned
|
| Due date: | |
| Reported for: | |
| Actual Result: |
Post Game Screen names are changed to default survivor names instead of keeping player's names.

Survivor/Player names remain differentiable.
|
| Severity: |
Major
|
| Reproducibility: |
Always
|
| Platform: |
Steam
|
| Additional Notes & Comments: |
This bug can encourage toxicity and absolutely makes reporting more difficult such as for DCing, cheating, and unsportsmanlike conduct.
|
Steps to Reproduce
- Play a match.
- Have survivors DC or abandon.
- Finish the match.
- Have survivors send messages via chat.
- Observe inability to differentiate which survivors are sending which messages.
Explanation
When players DC or abandon, it changes their names in the post lobby screen to the names of the in game survivors (Meg Thomas 01, Dwight Fairfield 05) but keeps the original player names in post game chat. Players can be toxic, racist, and threaten violence and I'm not able to report the correct person for this conduct.
