Why banning for DC when the killer slug

[ranzoo_tr]

I just had a game where the killer just slugged me for no reason. Why am I forced to wait 5min without doing anything? In what is it fun?

Were they nurse?

Were you running a high place with Boil Over?

Did you have an unhookable build and sabo team and kept running to a far corner?

Was it Pig?

I hate Pig.

Sometimes slugging is the smart play. I had survivors who sent themselves to the swamp map and teehee ran into the bottom floor of the one structure where I couldn't hook them. Downed two of them down there and just stood at the top of the stairs waiting patiently while they bled out. Sorry, but no free passes.

Sometimes you meet that maladjusted Trapper who's been on Eyrie of Crows one too many times and they just slug peole and then flex over them until they die because that's... IDK. It's like waiting at the exit gates.

There's no reason why sometimes. Some people really do just be weird. Gotta learn to take your lumps. When the game is on, it's great. When it's slugging at 5 gen Nurse with Blindness and Oblivious on everyone, it's GG pro gamer, I'll go next.

Because slugging is a valid tactic and DCing is not allowed. That simple.
Just because you don't like that you got slugged does not give you the right to ragequit, nor the right to decide how the Kilelr can kill you.

You got no context here.

I have absolutely had killers slug all four of us and pick no one up and just walk around nodding at us instead.

No, we weren't being toxic, it was back when I was a bebe potato with a team of SoloQ potatos. It's not just survivors that bully.

Yesterday I had a Knight who were slugging and camping the survivor on the ground until he bled out. He was also using his power on the survivor on the ground. It was basicly impossible to save him.

No sabo, all soloQ, not even playing toxic. There were still 5 gens to be done.

He lost ofc, but it's kinda of boring to play like this.

Sure; that Killer was a jerk.
That does not change the fact that it's no excuse to DC or expect the DC penalty to not apply.

I've also had Survivors who were in 4-Man bully squads who pent more than half the match preventing me form getting any hooks.
I remember one match, before hooks respawned when sabo'd, where they brought their strongest toolboxes, 99%'d every hook they saw, and then followed me in my first chase. The SECOND I downed their friend; multiple hooks were sabo'd in that area, and they ran ahead of me to sabo every hook I went towards.
After that; they made sure to take any chases to the dead zone, so I could never get a hook.
I did not DC because my irritation over their tactics did not excuse me DCing.

So I have perfectly good context here; DCing is not excused when you're upset. Regardless of side.

I agree that DC is not the answer.

Why do killers get a ban if they leave after getting gen rushed or being sent to a really unfair map?

lol, killers are also forced to wait if they DC from the game.

Regarding slugging, if killer is doing it just because they are a jerk, I understand the anger, but in cases where survivors bring sabo perks or perks that boost their chances of wiggling free before they get hooked, slugging is a valid tactic for a win, but not for geting pips nor BPs, since you aren't rewarded for survivors who bleed out.

1) Noone banning players for DC.
2) Don't go down in a first place.
3) You are not forced to wait for 5 mins - create SWF party with 3 friends and talk, they will pick you up.
3.1) Or just DC and go next game.

Also killer slugged you for several reasons:
a) To create pressure;
b) To win the game;
c) It is not against game rules.

i had so many games, where i could killed all survivors or at least one, but was too friendly and didnt want to let people wait and took them on my shoulders, trying to take them to a hook and then they free themselves and helped others and then escaped. and i often let the last one on the ground, while im going to search the hatch for him, so i can drag him there. i dont know what your killer did, but not everybody do that for no reason.

Slugging does not equal a disconnect.

A lot of people in the community need to understand that not every single game will go your way.
And you can always move on and play another match instead of being a petty ♥♥♥♥♥, and crying about it on the forums like it'll solve anything or change your match outcome.

[ranzoo_tr]

My point on slugging and camping the slug, it's just boring, you know that you just have to wait, doint nothing... it was at 4 gens, no one was toxic. It was maybe tactical, but it's soooo looooong, it's just unfun. This game mechanic should be reworked. So, I'll take unbreakable.

[Motherf♥♥♥er Big Scorpio]

When this happens to me I just go take a break, go to the WC, make me some tea, wash the dishes or wipe the floor.

Some people will sweat hard, and there's not much you can do about that.
Best piece of advice is just working around that and not letting it get to you so much.

A break always helps.

Have to agree with everyone else. If your DCing over a slug then your a big part of the problem and honestly if you get banned for it it's deserved. I don't quit when I get a hardline bully squad that lives on the game even though it's just as long, boring and unfun. I do agree the mechanic needs some adjustment but there's not much past basekit unbreakable which has way too much potential to be abused.

If you get slugged most of the time the killer feels they need to or their newer. So it's not nearly as likely that someone is trying to be malicious as people think. I slug every once in a while and leave someone down as a bait then get a team cripple by downing some of the others. After that I hook because I used their altruistic nature against them. So I think people need to understand the difference between "slugging" and slugging considering some think walking away for a short while to handle a problem = slugging.

Not saying that happened here as I have little to no context but ya your already running the counter which is unbreakable.
