leave the match
Why Devs have a "Leave the match - Button" anyways if you aren't allowed to leave the match not even for one time.

You are allowed to leave, you just can't abuse it by leaving every single time something doesn't go your way, simple as that.

Oh, and if you need to leave because of something happening IRL, then 5-15 min timeout won't even bother you.

Don't most online games have a "Leave the match" button and give you a warning if you leave it that you'll incur a penalty?

The only ones I know that don't have it are WOW and FF14, at least PC wise, but even they have a way to leave PVP...

There are several topics with the same question, and I've seen you replying there. Why making new thread?

You should always be able to leave an app, no matter what it is. This is how it's made, it's not for rage quiters.

That's why 1 time leave is not perma ban or 30min. If you have to leave it's should be more than 5min coz otherwise you could go and hide and be afk for 30s.
Playing fair, you won't even notice that you've had penalty.

It's so dumb saying "I DC because there is dc button".

I agree.. This option to leave match should he removed.
Since you are indeed not allowed to leave the match while alive.

Only have the option appear on dead.

You also get a penalty if the game crashed, a bug throws you into the lobby and if your internet-provider has connection issues and you lose some packages which automatically throws you back to the lobby.

Then people will ALT+F4 or as their last resort they will use power off button.

DC penalty is the only way to teach spoiled players to play by rules.

Honestly, even if they removed it. Still the same problem

People are gonna say. "Why aren't there any buttons to leave the match. I have to unplug my router everytime just to quit"

And the best (Worst) part is that new lines of topics gonna pop up that will be heavily discriminative toward quitters and compound upon the problem that DBD already has. Making the environment even more toxic

not really, If someone tries to farm me or bodyblock me,or I realize that the killer is a hardcore-tunnler I go for the instakill on hook it´s quite the same like dcing but you get points
Shifterplay Feb 27, 2020 @ 2:59am 
Ok imagine you have important call and you need to leave, do you really wanna look for a killer to die on a hook? Leave button is there for a reason - although there sould be (or maybe is, I never used it) warning that by leaving match you will get penalty.

Yeah suicide is new way to DC, but at least it takes killer's time and rewards him with points he deserves.

I never dc/suicide, if you feel you have to, this game probably isn't for you.

I don´t think that many killer deserve the points, you have at mid- and low-ranks many unbalanced things, e.g. the killer can facecamp, proxycamp or tunnel just one guy and is also able to 4k the game, because of the broken matchmaking and the fact that solo players are punished to playing solo and got a mixed lobby, with some noobs too, do you thing if I am at Rank 9, the Killer is Rank 14 and my three mates are 19, 20 and 18, do you think they can rescue me as good as a survivor on my rank? Nope, if I play solo survivor, I have these matches, even if I am at red ranks. Two weeks ago I have had a match against a rank 20 killer, because of the long waiting time, I was afk for a minute, the killer found me, downed me and hooked me, do you think anyone has safed me? No, they all waiting around the hook, I was rank 3, and many killers at mid- or low-ranks take advantage of the broken matchmaking (survivors too) and that forces many players into playing swf. I understand many people why they dc, and I don´t understand the behaviour of mid-rank killers, they should know what happen on the high ranks. That swf teams destroy the balance and they force the ♥♥♥♥ out of solo players. Chapeau, that´s really smart!

I wrote quite long response but I cut it short

I know how it is coz I'm playing solo.

By pressing Play I treat it as an agreement - I enter the game and play it from start to finish, no matter how good or bad it is.

I respect killers and survivors who no matter what, they stay in the game.

Since you get even a punishment when the nice game freezes in loading screen. I will definitely kill myself on hooks if I don't want to play against something.
I really do not care anymore xd
Good thing tho, I learned to not play the game 24/7. The hype is over.
Remembering the good old times when it was fun..

The button is there in cases of extremes - In cases of emergency, but people have gotten used to abuse it as much as possible, which is why there's the DC penalty.

Also, in cases of emergency, you wouldn't be able to return within those five minutes, would you?
That further explains, that those, who do complain about those DC penalties do suffer from crashes (usually being done by overheating GPU / CPU, by losing connection to their network, or by DCing on purpose to get a free Hatch escape, just like it has been abused for the enternity by SWF groups especially.).

Other than that, I don't believe, there's other purpose for the button to even be there.

Not true, when it crashes at loading screen, there is no penalty and players are moved back to the menus.

Games become much better since DCers are behind penalty wall :2016popsicle:
