Brain Burst, Reapers, Cranial Corruption, and Server Crashes

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Bugs
1

Issue Type (Required):

Missions

Issue Description (Required):

For some reason, I’m no game developer, using BrainBurst/Rupture on a Reaper Ogryn afflicted with Cranial Corruption completely bricks the Havoc mission I was attempting with colleagues. Backend error.. I believe 2004? The entire mission acts as if the server is losing connection despite all players staying in the same squad, voice chat working, as we all get booted back to the morningstar labeling the Havoc mission as “still in progress.”

My platform is Steam, yet someone was Xbox in my team and fell into the same issue we all did.
If this has been documented previously and I didn’t find it, I apologize.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

Psyker
Havoc 21 (If Havoc matters. Though Cranial Corruption IS required, hi-intensity auric worked fine.)
Brain Burst/Rupture a Reaper with Cranial Corruption and watch as everyone starts to run in place, poxwalkers fly, scab maulers go to space, and everyone is sent back to the operative selection.

Mission Name (Optional):

Mercantile HL-70-04

[PC] Do You Use Mods? (Optional):

No, I don’t use mods

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

I wonder how does this even happen when in the past during Cranial Corruption missions it never crashed because of this

But thanks for reporting this, I’ll make sure to not accept any psykers with brainburst during missions with Cranial
