DCing needs bigger punishment

[TTV.Karanga_]

Yes i know this has already been covered a million times and i dont know about everyone else but its getting kinda stupid now the amount of times someone will dc during a game (Both sides Survivor mostly though) its annoying and hurts everyone playing the game it hurts the survivors as it means 1 less person for the killer to think about and it hurts the killer as they have already qued some stupid amount of time to get a game mean that they protentionally lose bp's and fun and survivors protentally lose that 1 person who could mean the difference between surviving and getting killed

So My point is Dcing needs to be looked at and punishments need to be tougher and i know they will just suicide on the first hook but least that gives the killer some points and wastes their time a little which could make a difference to the outcome of a game

People D/C'ing purely because things are unfair or killing themselves on first hook because again, killer found me first - unfair, best D/C because of it, entitlement overload.

Seriously though, D/C penalty is the best thing this game could introduce, if people care so much to D/C or kill themselves on first hook then they clearly care about their games and or ranking, if they continue to D/C they lose massively on their rank, dead on first hook, same applies but less, eventually players who are negative plebs will just stop and will try, their attitudes need fixing and this honestly needed to happen.

They'll stop being cry babies and just play the game, it's not unfair, it's how the game is, with bugs and so on, oh well bugs happen, why is it as a R1 player I pip every game, sounds unfair, no, just get better.

Ye, of course. Not because game is bugged and unplayable, no no no.

There should be mechanics in place for DC or giving up on first hook. It's ridiculous sometimes. Yesterday i had 5 games in a row with atleast 1 of them

The DC punishment test only lasted 2 days and in that time the number of DC'ers dropped dramatically.

The issue with the system was it didn't take into account bugs or server issues. Some were timed out for the system error after leaving a game for example.

The test gave them a lot to work on and hopefully they can address the issues quickly so another test can be done soon.

A DC system has to also punish all crashes and bugs that make you quit.
Otherwise those that love to DC will use it as a loophole.

And that loophole will become the new DC method without any penalty.
Then we are back to square 1.

How will they abuse the system if the DC system stops penalising crashes?
They will use bugs, cutting power to their pc or using a 3rth party app to crash DbD on purpose.

Annoyed by getting penalised on crash? ----->> Blaim those that DC.
It is the only way a DC penalty system will work.

And I agree with the OP
DC penalties should be a lot longer.

Bigger punishments huh?

Do you remember the Hunch back of Notre dame (not the cheesy Disney one) But the one with Salma Hayek in it. You know the penance scene with Richard Harris from that movie? Is that what you want for punishment? No, I really don't think so. Players dc. just get over it.

If this community wasn't such trash and such trash to each other, there wouldnt be as many D/C's. This community created it's own problem by being toxic. It should have to live with it... Do what most YT videos are about Toxic w/e toxic that etc Make a series of Toxic D/cing it should be fun as fun as going into matches and playing with no other intention than to laugh at the angry comments at GG. Toxic D/C and laugh and GG..

Genuine R1 player, played a lot since hot fix for last patch, sure there are minor issues, major one being Dead Hard not working, game breaking, hardly, get good.

The DC penalties were removed, it was two days of testing with bans and timeouts. They are already looking at good timeouts and how to make sure they activate correctly (aka not giving you a 30 minute timeout because you got infinite loading screens). Ironically everyone complaints there needs to be penalties and as soon as they put the tests on, the entirety of this forum was "NO NO REMOVE THE PENALTIES I WANT TO DC ON FIRST DOWN"

At the first time playing this game and with every update TOS you agree to play by the rules.

Either you play by the rules or you do not play at all.
The new DC system is enforcing that.

It would work even better with longer timeout penalties and eventually a perma ban.

But what if you do not like that?

A: Play by the rules.
B: Do not play at all

Either option works. Your choice.

Are you the kind of player to DC ?
Because, actually, i don't see the problem there, you DC during a game = you get punished, simple .
You're part of a team, your dcing is punishing player and depriving them of chances to win, so you have to lose to in other ways

there goes 50%+ of the games population right there

You could promote that. "we got rid of the disconnectors, so now the game is 50% more enjoyable"

But instead you just promote that this is a bad way to deal with the issue. I for one, even tho I literally never DC'd, I'd never touch the game again after introducing something like that, and I know for a fact that many others would feel the same way. This is simply no way of fixing something.

You have to understand that DCing is not the problem, it's merely a symptom. It would be unfair to punish the symptom. It's just unfun to play survivor right now.
From my experience, I just switched to killer. Playing trapper, hag and myers.
In my last 50 matches, I've 4k'd 45 times.
I'm not great by any means, I simply know a lot from survivor and watching otz/monto. It's just incredibly hard to survivor in rank 5-20 as survivor and people are in rage-quit mode right now.

I agree with you on that, but look, when i play and even if the game goes really bad for me, i don't DC, they could bear with it also and hope for the next game to be better.
My point here is, when you DC you ruin other people experience too, and sadly, that still should be punished

We will have to agree to disagree. You can't punish people for leaving match. Holding someone hostage in your game? Seen many games rise and fall to that mindset.

Yes, that's what a forum is for, after all, sharing thoughts with people that doesn't always think your way :) it's been a pleasure to disagree with you
