Closed Briefcase
It seems that we cannot "Use with..." on the briefcase on the Gazebo anymore to get it down using the broom. Clicking "Use with..." does not bring up the inventory.

ONLY KIND OF TRUE! I have been somewhat having this issue but if you move around a bit and try again from a slightly different spot on the ground, then for me it's worked every time if at first I haven't been able to get the briefcase from my original position on the ground

I got it. You have to get into the story of Rachel vs Patrick until she mentions the briefcase then you will be able to.

No, still wasn't able to even in the story.

Like the 2nd post says, you have to position just right, then "Use with..." finally works and opens the inventory. So it seems while the briefcase can be interacted with in many angles, only at a certain angle does the option actually work. It didn't use to be this sensitive.

Some speculation that the female PC is shorter than the male PC so it's harder to reach with her, but you can get it if you position in just the right place.

Got the briefcase easy with both characters.

The thing is you can click it, Inspect works fine, but "Use with..." just closes the action UI and doesn't open the inventory. It's not that it's hard to interact with the briefcase, it's that interacting with it doesn't produce the expected result.

That is definitely a bug. If you can interact with an object, you expect those interactions to work properly.

This seems to be a bug for me as well. When I drop the broomstick , the "Use with..." inventory opens up fine but it does not open as soon as I put the broomstick back into the inventory. Never had this issue prior to this latest launch.

*** I was able to finally grab the suitcase after moving right under it. Don't remember it being this sensitive to grabbing it.
