I had multiple games with Survivors with Flashlights

Didn't they disable them? Or is it just a PC thing and Consoles players can use them freely?

The killswitch prevents folk from equipping flashlights or some perks that make you guaranteed to find flashlights. If they already had a flashlight in hand, or get one from a chest through rng, they get to keep it.

If you're playing during this, just make sure you're ready to record when you need to, and report anybody using the flashlight + locker exploit.

Keep in mind it's only to prevent the exploit or reduce it as much as possible.
So if they are not using the locker exploit, then it isn't an issue anyways.

If they do however, yeah shadowplay and report in game and on website

Alright I thought chests don't spawn flashlights anymore since I played multiple matches as survivor and didn't find a Flashlight in any chest.

If anything just record them. BHVR is taking this seriously and alot of people are getting banned using the exploit/cheat
