Seventh Sample Spoilers (Potential Soft Lock)
So when I went into the cold storage lab I closed both doors behind me thinking that wouldn't be a bad idea since you are getting chased. After getting Sample 7 the monster spawns next to the room and follows you towards the door which is still shut for me. As far as I can tell it isn't possible to open the door and prevent the monster from getting to you by shooting it while waiting for the door to go through it's lengthy animation. If you try to get it to follow you into the other rooms to go around it it kills you through the walls.

Moral of the story is don't do what I did kids.

Howdy there, QA here!

It's technically possible to get out if you close both Cold Storage doors with the creature chasing you. It was something we've checked more than a few times before launch (to make sure that it couldn't get it's spindly hands on you).

Of course, there's always a chance it could be something else! We'd definitely welcome the discussion in our Discord: discord.gg/thGRBsu

While it is technically possible, it's so insanely tight that it feels kind of unintentional. At points it felt like total chance if the creature would grab me or not. I did the same thing of closing both doors, and out of about 20 tries I was able to actually open and escape the first door twice. Once past there though, it was a walk in the park (after I found out to close the door)

Hey! So I just recalled that pressing spacebar skips the animation of the door opening, and that should afford you a larger window of time to escape. Regardless, you do make a great point, and we'll add it to our list of matters to look into.

Thank you!

I did the same mistake and while difficult it is easily do-able. Just have to shoot while running from the creature to slow it down. The gun mechanics make that a bit difficult with you having to continuously bring back the gun instead of a reload animation. I think I died about 3 times, once fumbling with the 2nd door and the other times with the fact you apparently have to close the vault door behind you, which isn't the most intuitive when the creature is a foot away from you.
