Impaired Interactions Due to Poor Connection of Another Player
| Status: | Open |
| Priority: |
High |
| Added by: | Anonymous on November 8, '26 |
| Assigned to: |
Unassigned
|
| Due date: | |
| Reported for: | |
| Actual Result: |
I was unable to pick up the affected survivor, and I was also unable to perform the Mori at the end of the match. The game simply wouldn't allow either interaction to happen, leaving me unable to properly finish the match.
|
| Expected Result: |
I should be able to pick up survivors and perform Mori kills as normal. Another player's poor connection shouldn't prevent basic gameplay interactions from working.

| Severity: |
Major

| Reproducibility: |
Frequently

| Platform: |
Steam

| Additional Notes & Comments: |
I honestly think something needs to be done about players joining servers in regions that are nowhere near where they're actually playing from. Why should someone on the other side of the world be able to join a European server if their connection is so bad that other players can't even interact with them properly? Surely there could be some sort of maximum ping limit or a system that detects when someone's connection is consistently too poor for them to play in that region. It's not fair that everyone else in the match has to deal with it, especially when leaving the game means receiving a matchmaking penalty for something that's completely outside of your control.

Steps to Reproduce
- Enter a match with a player experiencing extremely high ping or connection issues.
- Down the affected survivor.
- Attempt to pick them up.
- Observe that the pickup interaction doesn't work.
- At the end of the match, attempt to perform a Mori on the affected survivor.
- Observe that the Mori interaction also fails.
Explanation
I had a match where one of the survivors appeared to have a really bad connection. It got to the point where I couldn't properly interact with them at all.
I was unable to pick them up after downing them, and even when it came to the end of the match, I couldn't perform the Mori. The game simply refused to let me do either of these things.
I ended up waiting around, hoping the survivor would disconnect, but nothing happened. Eventually I got fed up and left the match, which resulted in me receiving a matchmaking penalty.
It's frustrating that I'm the one being penalised when I haven't actually done anything wrong and the match has become unplayable because of another player's connection.
