Additional Information

This damn bug finally caught up with me and got me killed, so I'm reporting it. It's been around since the "new character controller" was introduced.

Hello fundogthrillionaire.
We have been testing the issue but we were unable to produce it. Is there anything specific that affects the occurrence?
Regards,

@Geez,

Yes. You have to be sprinting and time the injection for the instant you've run out of stamina, but don't stop moving forward during the injection animation. This has happened to me so many times.

I got a new PC and started playing on that platform and was able to reproduce it there, so it's not just a PS4 bug.

I wish I could be more helpful.
