Infected, but NO symptoms!

[DarkRayan]

Its just not right....how u can determin it then if there is nothing? Even game itself said survivior infected, killed 2 others, but had nothing as symptoms AT ALL!

Try using the UV night, Some symptom is very hard to find.

If they had a backpack, make sure to UV scan the items. If anything shows up; They're infected.

Exactly, as other players suggested, try using the UV light to see if you might have missed something.

thats the thing, no marks no backpack, and if you fail and send them in the camp, after they "die" and kill few more ppl, game shows what you miss, and there was NOTHING....forgot to screenshot it....i just alt-f4'd >_>

a few things people miss are:

hidden bite marks, only show up glowing green in uv.

the back of the lungs, they can have extra dark spots on the black of the lungs which can be zombie breath even if the front of the lungs are all healthy.

pus, its a much lighter color than the mouth blood, and looks like little dark spots along the bottom of the eye, theyre rare symptoms so can be forgotten about.

the sides of the body and feet, while scanning make sure to check sides and the feet inside shoes as they can still have bites.

I did actually have this happen on a second playthrough as well. On Day 2 a survivor said the "I was bit by a dog, not a zombie" line, but even with the UV scanner there was nothing there. I did several passes just to be sure, but there were just no visible symptoms. However, when the day ended, it flagged that survivor for having a bite mark AND necrosis, despite his skin being flawless.

[DarkRayan]

you guys probably still dont understand. my thing didnt showed anything on screen where it suppose to show what you miss, as post before said game said he missed bite marks and necrosis, mine didnt showed ANYTHING, it was EMPTY....idk how to explain this anymore -_-

[Utopia-Phoenix]

This is surely problematic. Even if he/she says got a bitten by a dog you have to find the mark to prove it, otherwise you are convicting purely based on the speech.
Also an infected with no symptoms at all is also problematic. Strictly said it can happen but it's not the player's liability. This can be a feature (with future updates to fill) or a bug.

You sure seem angry and shouty about the whole thing.

Blonde woman was fine, but infection on her items. Check closely with uv.

[thatWretch]

Yeah, I'm not trying to dogpile or anything here. Bugs happen, and it's great to catch this stuff early. I just wanted to point that it probably shouldn't be dismissed out of hand - while it could be argued that despite my thorough search I might've missed a UV bite somehow (I drove myself crazy trying to find anything on this man), there's no way I could've missed necrosis. The dude's skin was flawless (I'm jealous, honestly.)

That being said, I submitted a detailed bug report, and OP probably should too.

[Deadly Banana]

I've seen a guy with black spots on his lungs and it says he's not infected. Also I never hear anything other than the same sound loop of "healthy breathing" from the stethoscope. Even the day when it was provided.

I've had 3 separate infected get in but I've never seen any specific symptoms at all. UV whole body, temp, etc.
And like OP said, this only applied to survivors with ZERO symptoms. If there was ever one, or more-- the inevitable quarantine hammer.
It's weird because the symptoms don't even show up on when they kill others, so I don't know what it even was.

You literally played a demo for an unreleased game and are already complaining about it?? Do the words "early access" mean anything to you??

[DarkRayan]

thats actually the whole point of EA, to fix more stuff before release >_>
