Resolved

Latency left the Killer in third-person view

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The same patch fixes latency potentially leaving Killers stuck in a third-person view. This is the camera defect explicitly described by the developer. [1]

Resolved

Potential Energy stopped gaining tokens at skill checks

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The 10.2.1 perk fixes include Potential Energy stopping token accumulation when skill checks appeared. A separate fix addresses Decisive Strike failing while a Killer was falling. Compare the named perk and trigger rather than treating these as one general perk failure. [1]

Resolved

Survivor pickup failed beside specific map obstacles

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

Patch 10.2.1 fixes pickup failures beside Disturbed Ward park benches and between blockers in The Thompson House. These map-specific geometry fixes are separate from every other reason a pickup action might be unavailable. [1]

Resolved

Trial crash involving Wraith

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

Bugfix patch 10.2.1 fixes an issue that could crash a trial involving Wraith. The note names that trial context but does not specify one player action that always triggered it. [1]
