    Bug Description: Knife kill glitches (no exp/deleting zombies)

     

    Detailed steps to reproduce the bug:

    1) I played 18 hours using blades as a primary weapon. It has happened so many times that I am agitated enough to sign up to the forum and report the bug.

     

     

    Actual result: 

    1) Sometimes when I get a kill using a knife (LMB/RMB) it will literally delete the zombie, like they just disappear. No death animation, no death sound, no beloved grotesque ultra violence. I suspect it might have to do with new kill animations.

    2) Sometimes when using the knife I get no experience for killing zombies with attacks, both LMB/RMB and bleed damage. 

     

    These happen seemingly at random. They have happened with Bone Knife level 1-6 and hunting knife 5. Weapon mods used were serrated blade, ergonomic grip, the hunter mod, structural brace mod. Zombie type does not appear to influence the bug, although my game stage hasn't let me verify with higher tier zombies.

     

    Expected result: 

    1) I expect the zombie to die in spectacular fashion complete with gargled death moans.

    2) I expect to receive experience for every kill.

    I cannot provide a screenshot that would be helpful. Zombie deletion is instantaneous. Also the lack of exp gain is problematic to show with a screen shot. To truly report I would need to record myself playing and upload a videoclip. I am old and have no idea how to do either of those things.

     

    If you spend 10 minutes killing zombies with a knife, you should be able to experience both yourself. If not I will cashapp you for a beer.

     

    Thank you.

    Follow up. I believe zombie "deletion" may be the game working as intended. One hit on a dead zombie with a knife deletes the corpse. It could be that the bleed tick that killed it coincided with the melee attack. So as I am swinging the bleed tick kills it, the hit lands, corpse deleted. It is still strange to witness.

     

    The no exp on bleed is consistent. I've played a few hours today and bleed damage from knives does not grant exp.

    It seems all my issues have been resolved. Bleed damage now grants exp always. Also striking a zombie corpse reduces it to 2/1000 hp. So if you get that extra hit on a corpse it decapitates it or cuts off limbs or whatever gruesomely awesome animation you expect.

     

    Bravo and merci beaucoup! I appreciate your time and effort.
