Was stalking always bugged?
Whenever I play Myers there are instances where his stalk just doesn't work and you have to reset it. If you start stalking right after they drop a pallet it won't work. Or over some obstacles where you can see them perfectly it won't work. Or just randomly when you're trying to get stalk and theyre looping you it won't work for the short bits they're out of cover.
Has it always been like this?

It wasn't always like this. His stalking is broken and he is in a really bad state currently because of that.
Why don't they fix it? I think I remember it being bugged even months ago.
Because it's a killer bug
Haha very original and popular opinion, upvoted!
Look at nurse..
I think that they will fix it once they get around to reworking him. They are currently using mid-chapter patches to completely rework and/or improve old killers. There are currently killers way worse than him out there, and they need to tackle them first. Sure, his stalking can be completely gamebreaking, but he is still in a better place than say clown.
Myers doesn't need a work. He's fine as is.
This was something they discussed on their "It's not hitboxes, it's latency" stream. Falls into the category of you're seeing them there but their hitbox isn't there.
Did they mention whether or not theyre going to do anything about it?
They did, yes. Apparently, they are working to reduce the impact of latency in general, but there are specific latency-affected issues (stalking, grabbing, Dead Hard, etc.) which need to be addressed on a case-by-case basis and are currently on their list of active tasks.
Some people choose to simply not believe them, of course, but that is what we've been told.
