Play While You Wait Auto Queues You After A Couple Minutes

in Bug Reporting

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: When you queue up as killer in 2v8, and use the play while you wait feature, your survivor lobby auto readies you up without user input.

PLATFORM: Steam

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:

  1. Queue up as killer in 2v8
  2. Use the Play While You Wait feature
  3. DO NOT ready up as survivor
  4. Wait 3-4 minutes
  5. You auto ready.

Note: If this is intentional and not a bug, please change how this works to kick the user back to their killer queue, because this is incredibly unintuitive.

    SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: The game automatically readies you and puts you in a lobby if you are not readied up in the survivor lobby while waiting for a killer match. It happened to me several times while I was playing today as I was not readied up and was using bloodpoints on my survivor then suddenly get put into a survivor lobby. It should not do some auto ready up that user has no control over. It seems to be happen every time if you idle a while in the survivor lobby while queuing to killer match.

    PLATFORM: PC/Steam

    STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: Use the new feature to play survivor while waiting to play killer and don't ready up as survivor. Observe it automatically reading you up or even throw you in a match lobby.
