The new patch has increased quitting substantially.
The title says it all, So far there's only been 1 match I've been in on either side that didn't have 1 or 2 disconnects. If the devs aren't going to start handing out punishments soon i'ts only going to get worse.

I would like the report system to be reworked soon so that people are actually punished for DCing, because losing bloodpoints is not that big a deal.

Why would it make people to quit more ?
I don't quite get it.If you guys are mad and don't feel like playing the game, just... Don't play it, instead of playing it and quit ?

How can the devs ban anyone for utilizing a feature that’s in the game? If this many people are leaving during the match, there’s a problem0

It could be a bug. When Lunar event was launched on Xbox it would cause the game to crash constantly usually during the load screen or initial moments of the game, but also could happen if you got hooked or shocked or hit by something that makes any sort of UI notification come up. This game has stability issues, especially on console, I wouldn't be surprised if the DC's were from crashes.

The people are quitting because they think killers are op now, faster pickup and Trapper is scary now apparently.

agreed. theres always been a need for a harsher penalty imo.
nobody cares about rank. start taking their bps or shards5 -
Its making the survivors leave to make room for the killer mains lol1

LOL kinda hard to BAN someone for a DC... WHEN the game has P2P.... That killers net can go to crap anytime during a game then people DC. Soooo yeah.. If the game had SERVERS then i can see it.

yes, people are very conscientious about such matters and that would work fantabulously.
crawl back in your hole, demented pigmy.2 -
It’s because Survivors are having trouble dealing with the fact that they have to actually have skill to escape and that Killers are getting stronger. When the DS nerf hits, I won’t be surprised if there’s 1-2 players quitting in nearly every game because of the loss of their crutch perk.2

This has nothing to with entitled survivors anymore than it does entitled killers quitting because of map choice.

I’m sure this is true for some survivor mains, but not all of them.SnakeSound222 said:It’s because Survivors are having trouble dealing with the fact that they have to actually have skill to escape and that Killers are getting stronger.

IMO the problem most survivors have are tunneling scumbag killers. And the problem most killers have are 4 man navy seal swf teams. Neither of these issues were addressed in this patch.
You cant force killers to not camp and tunnel. But playing against them is not fun at all. Especially when killers tunnel someone off the hook with 4 or 5 gens left.
You can’t remove swf at this point because the game would die. A 4 man SWF team that is GOOD and knows the maps and gen placement isn’t fun to play against.
Its a huge circle jerk. There’s just as many killers that rage quit. The balance changes are fine with this patch.
So unfortunately, since those issues are still there, disconnects will be on the rise.5 -
I don't see why the quitting has increased. I have not noticed any considerable increase in the killers' power since this patch, and I have face a plethora of Hags and Trappers tonight, and all using the buffed perks, too. So have the other killers I went against like Michael, Hillbilly and the Wraith.

I left once yesterday because i was just done with being farmed

I streamed for a total of 4 hours yesterday, give or take. Only one person disconnected that I can recall. Maybe you're just getting lucky.

i never stay for that either and would seriously question the judgement of anyone who would stay for such. i have asked on several occasions for proof of those who decry no bans for quitting to show in the form of actual video where they tolerate such, to no avail.2 -
Only 2 DCs seen last night in the 3 hours I was playing which is about standard so I don’t think it’s increased, Also from a survivor perspective I didn’t notice much of a change but I only really used SC anyway and the change has yet to effect the way I use it.
Pick up time is great, and still able to get Saves with flashlight, to be honest I think it’s easier as the timing to do it has reduced, like the fact that the whole set up tome had been taken away.

Maybe you're just getting lucky.Touche and I hate being farmed as well, especially by jerks with WGLF who always run the killer back to you when they're close then run off. It's weird though since for awhile it wasn't so bad but then it got really bad then settled down some.
But with the mid chapter release high ranks on pc have been atrocious. I did my 1st killer match of patch as Trapper after getting wrecked by a p3 Trapper on Badham Preschool. I loaded into Gas Heaven and the obsession instantly quit after spawning next to a trap.

According to the Steamcharts, the amount of players currently is how it normally is.

I made this to accurately describe the patch for me. A feast for a king.

DS and hatch are still in the game, literally two characters were buffed and pickup speed was buffed slightly.
No more 2 minute sprint burst chases
Tinkerer got nerfed for a worse BBQ
survivors think it's the end of days
