March 2023 in Bug Reporting
My friend and I were trying to complete the find two yellow glyph challenge, and no matter how many times we found the yellow glyphs and tried to complete the skill check trial it would fail and say we didn't hit the skill check even when we did. I think this is a bug with the yellow glyph skill checks specifically and I'm not sure if anyone has reported a problem with this challenge not working yet.

My wife and I are also having the exact same issue. We have been stuck on the yellow glyphs challenge for over 2 days. It just never registered the skill checks correctly and automatically fails us.

BHVR mentions in the patch notes that the yellow glyph is bugged, it's a known issue.

Although the yellow glyph challenge said it was fixed in this recent patch it is still not working for me on PS5.

Same here; I'm on PS4. I get the good skill check sound but the circle turns red and the glyph disappears. I tried the glyph multiple times in 3 games.

Yeah, it is still bugged. Tried to complete it like 5 times and it would always fail, even if my input was correct.

I knew I wasn't crazy, I managed to get it to register me hitting the first skillcheck once then never again.

Same, on PC with controller. If I hit the checks exactly in the middle, it progresses to the next check, but if I hit in the 25% or 75% zone it gives me success sound but flashes red and fails.

For me, on Xbox, it seems like the game is reading the button press as a hold.
It fails if I'm still "holding" the button when the needle leaves the skill check zone, so I have to be very early on the zone and very quick to release the button.

Same here. Mine failed on the third skill check on every glyph I found in the same map. Even when I clearly hit the skill check zone. The first time I thought I was crazy, but the fourth time in the same map I had confirmation. Clearly not working still.

Are they still bugged? I frustrated myself for many, many matches thinking it was the Switch's performance problems.
Back when I only did it on PS4 I thought the Yellow Glyph was nifty, but I'm over it, especially since easily half the killers I face run Merciless Storm. BHVR should just replace the Yellow Glyph challenges with Red Glyphs or Blue Glyphs and call it a day, because even if they "fix" the Yellow Glyphs they'll still be frustrating as all hell (if not literally impossible) on some consoles.

Can confirm, the yellow glyphs still aren't working.
I've managed to get 1 glyph, but unless you hit dead centre of the zone, it auto-fails.
V annoying.

Same issue on ps4, current patch. No matter where I hit on the skillcheck zone it fails. Also had one glyph automatically fail as soon as I interacted with it

Just equipped challenge to try it, skill checks not counting you have to hit it early + a slight pause when hitting one. There's also no sound when it appears so it's much harder to find it.

I am having some issues with the yellow glyph challenge. I have noticed that there seems to be some lag on the first 1-2 checks. Also, when it fails after hearing the success sound, a red check zone appears behind the check zone (if you successfully complete the 1 check). I don't believe that it is the next check zone because of how far it is around the circle.
In the video below, I have 2 attempts, the first fails with a successful test sound (and shows the red check zone) the second test shows the lag on the first check, but stops lagging by the second and I am able to finish the yellow glyph

Playing on PC on steam and was trying to complete the yellow glyph challenge for the fourth part of tome 14 and when I hit the skill checks at the correct time it had it be a bad skill check and moved the glyph. I tried three times in the same match but it kept happening.

Platform: Steam (PC)
Description: When doing the Yellow Glyph challenge as survivor, the skill check dial will jutter when space is pressed. This results in the dial appearing to exit the 'successful' skill check zone, and cause the glyph to fail. Happens more often than not; have been able to do a single glyph so far. It seems sometimes that just barely tapping the spacebar will cause the check to success when the dial is in the success zone, but have been unable to confirm if this is in fact the case.
Never had problems with the yellow glyphs before, until I picked the challenge a few days ago. Now it happens almost every single yellow glyph skill check.

Issue is still active on Xbox March 21st. I didn't have an issue with previous glyph challenges so I'm not sure what changed.

I tried one game know after the patch and I think that it's still bugged. Can someone confirm?

Since the patch for PC users this is caused by disabling Vsync manually in GameUserSettings.ini with it enabled Yellow Glyphs work perfectly, disabled you'll be lucky to hit 3 before it fails and it'll look very stuttery.

Still happening! Had a team full of potatoes and the most frustrating part of the match was the three times I successfully did the checks and still failed.

I don't know how or why, but I managed to complete the 4 yellow glyphs today. I tried yesterday after the patch and it was impossible, but today (I don't know the answer) it seemed fixed for me (PS4).

On PC still getting lag if i manage to get past the first two checks. Also getting the "hit" sound usually on the first two but it registers as failed. If the glyph remains this broken you will need to vastly increase the see distance and ability to see it through walls. Because these glyphs are broken, I can do merciless storm, but not these? And failing so often causes the player to have to go find it AGAIN. basically making them useless to the team. I'd say don't add any more yellow skill checks until they get some sort of overhaul because in their current version, they are a mess.

Still bugged for me. I've succeeded at one full glyph in all my attempts at this challenge. It seems you have to hit a sweet spot in the 2nd quarter of the check for it to count, but getting five in a row is very difficult. I have to assume this has something to due with lag?

Same. Unfortunately we have to wait until the mid-chapter comes out for a patch that will hopefully fix it.
