Smoker that has dragged a survivor to the end now gets the same cinematic flashlight as the Hunter and Charger
what is that cinematic?
No, a flashlight that IS cinematic.
Cinematic being an adjective, not a noun.
The flashlight they refer to is the red light that beams right on top of you when you’re being disabled by a special infected.
There is a white flashlight when you are healing or assisting teammates.
Fixed Charger Hit Boxes: Does this mean I’ll actually be able to HIT people now? Scattering Ram is the only Infected achievement I need and it seems that Rochelle’s breasts bounce my pathing every single time!
Lol, I got it on DCR 3 on the escalators pretty easily, you might want to try it there.
