DC Penalty times?
Did they say how often you need to DC to get penalties?

How long the penalties are? 5 minutes every time? 5 then 15 then 30?

Will you eventually build up enough penalty minutes to stay banned for months?

Why should you need that info? Do not DC, do not find out...

Maybe he wants to know how much time he needs to wait when that lovely game will crash

I dont DC, never have (read any thread on the subject to see my views on it), but, I get a ton of jackholes DCing in my games, and tons of people on here complaining about DC penalties, crying about if they dont want DCs why is there a button, why should I play a game I dont like, so, I want to know to counter their arguments.

And, as for internet crashes, I get mine at 3am a few times a week, so yeah, when it happens, it takes about 5 minutes for the modem to reboot, should I bother trying to get back in? if its only 5 minutes, yes, if its 30+ minutes then no, im going to play Civ 4

From the official forums someone posted:

"First time: 5 mintues

2nd time: 5 minutes

3rd: 15 minutes

4th: 15 minutes

5th: 30 minutes

6th: 30 minutes

7th: 60 minutes"

Granted I dunno how accurate it is but ya.

ah. ty.

Someone was saying somehting about 2 free DCs? Is that thinking that 5 minutes is basically free? or are there actual 2 free DCs?

Where is the official post on this? the link in the game only takes you to the announcement, I didnt see any rules given.

Official post on the DC penalty though it doesn't go too in-depth with the timers. I'm assuming people are considering the two 5 minute ones "free" since they don't last that long.

and, what is the timeline for the 7th ban, like is it life time? in a week? 1 day?

"The incremental penalties will decay naturally over time, starting after the most recent matchmaking ban has completed."

huh, can someone tell me what is the BHVR's definition of naturally decaying over time? And I mean like actual numbers, not a word filler like that

I would assume that if you disconnect 5 times a day, you'll have 30 minutes of waiting. But if you play a week without a disconnect, the next disconnect won't be 30 minutes.

Ive heard from a youtube caster that the dc penalty stacking will reset...
after 12 hours of playing without a single DC.

Yup people that DC will learn.... or not play.
Working as intended. It makes me smile :)

This is what I was assuming too, BUT, is there a non-weasel-word explanation of this?

12 hours? a week? a month? year?

Lol 5 min for DC is a JOKE i tell you. Why not 30 min instead or 1 hour?

Devs are only in it for the Survivors, if ti didnt hurt the game for the other 3 survivors, we'd never see anything

If you don't DC then why ask. For example I don't DC at all so it's not my concern
