Lunging Attack sometimes doesn't work

Syntai Syntai

I've stopped playing this game for a while and jumped back in arround 2 weeks ago.

(I play on PC via Steam)

I've noticed that lots of times (atleast 1-3 times per game) my lunging attack doesn't register.

My mouse is perfectly fine (Swapped it once) but sometimes while I am in a chase, I am holding M1 to go for the lunge and it just swings instantly, doing a quick attack.

This can be pretty frustrating.

Anyone else having this issue?

I've noticed it pretty much on every killer I've tested so far.

(Spirit, Freddy, Deathslinger, Wraith, Ghostface)

    Are you sure your M1 isn't breaking? I had a similar issue with my M2 where I'd be charging a blink as Nurse and then without warning I'd just blink despite not letting go of the button. Turned out it was just my M2 breaking.

    I changed my mouse once and it still happened.

    I don't have any issues with it while playing other games.

    It's just weird.

    Sometimes I am just doing lunging-attacks freely in the open and it works perfectly, but as soon as a chase starts and when they 'should' hit, it feels like a gamble where they sometimes just bug out.

    Didn't try switching ports yet. I'll test it, but I also doubt that this is the issue.

    At first I thought it's some kind of crossplay issue, because most of the time it happened while I was chasing console-survivors (as a PC killer).

    But then it happened once or twice with PC survivors, too.

    Regarding the timing I haven't noticed anything specific yet.

    It happened way before Bloodlust would kick in.

    It's weird. Whenever I go for longer lunges that should hit - they just interrupt early like the game tries to deny me the hit.

    And I am not talking about 'barely hitting' - just the difference where a quick attack wouldnt hit, but a lunge should.

    But even though I hold M1 it just instantly goes off.

    Like I said, this happens like 1-3 per game. Sometimes it doesnt happen at all. Sometimes it happens twice.

    It's just weird.
