Dear devs, please bring back the DC penalities!
hey, so i know that there were issues with them, such as players whose games crashed receiving them, but since they were turned off i have gotten tons of ragequitters!
i mean, as a killer thats annoying and all, but as survivor it makes the entire game unwinnable - if they do it early enough (which is usually the case. they DC uppon being the first one downed, so there are 5 gens left at that point).
when you had the punishment system active ive had literally no ragequits. none.
now they are off and out of 2 games 3 people ragequit, making me just want to stop playing solo survivor (rank 3 btw. they insta ragequit at rank 3.)...
so please, polish them a little (so ppl whose games crashed wont get timed out for the next 50 hours) and then bring them back as fast as possible!
because i dont find this survivor experience at all enjoyable, at this point in time.
thank you very much.

What is the difference between a dc and a hook suicide? The people that dc are exactly the same people that will just kill themselves, but with the penalties you punish people crashing

hook suicides are a lot less common that ragequits tho.
when the penalities were on ive had very few players quitting (via hook suicide) - sure there were some, but majority just played the game normally.
idk why, but the hook suicides were just a LOT less common than the DCs currently are.
now, as ive said above, there is maybe one game in 5 that no one just insta quits.
it makes the game basically unplayable for solo players like me.
also, ive said above that i didnt want them to punish players for crashing.
i literally mention it in the first sentence.
have you read the OP?

When they fix game crashes and etc. then they'll probably turn it back on. Or after doing tests.

While you said you didn't want crashing people to get punished, you still asked for the penalties back so they would still get punished. And you can argue that dcs are more common than hook suicides simply because they are quicker, and besides, I had people killing themselves on the hook while the penalties were active as much as dcs on the normal game

do me a favor and reread the OP.
ive already said everything you try to argue with me here up there, regarding the crashes.
but just in case, ill say it again:
i do not want the DC penalities return in the exact same state they have been in when they got first released. i explicitly said i do not wish for players whose games crashed to get punished and that they would need to be slightly altered before the rerelease.
i merely wished to give my feedback on them and inspire the Devs to bring them back as soon as possible, as they have been, at least for me, a huge improvement.
now regarding the hook suicides:
i cant tell how many hook suicides you've had. i can only share my own experiene with them, which was that, compared to the absurd amount of DCs ive gotten ever since the penalities were turned off, there have been very few.
it might be different on other ranks (i'm red rank with both killer and survivor - though i have been at purple ranks as survivor when the penalities were put in place), but from what i experienced hook suicides were a lot less common that DCs.
they are nevertheless a problem - but they are not a problem that is caused by DC penalities. hook suicides are a problem that is already in the game, which is just overshadowed by a different problem - the DCs - which would get fixed with the implementation of the new system. so yes, they definitely need to be addressed, however that doesnt mean we should ignore the DC epidemy that is going on right now.
if you wish to know my thoughts and possible solutions to this, i will go ahead and link you to a discussion regarding this exact topic i made when the penalities were on - with possible solutions to it for both sides:
