5 minutes is to much

No. This will never work. They need a system that persuaded people to never DC, not game the system so they only get warnings or banned for a short amount of time. Honestly, the first DC needs to be 30 minutes.
it appears the DC ban is working slightly. All the people pissed off about it are the ones DCing.

No. You're wrong.
You giving them money is optional. As is your choice to give in to your childish hissy fit when a game doesn't go your way or not.
Be a big kid and stay in the game even when you don't like what's happening, or go to time out. This is what growing up is all about. Making big kid decisions.

No, you are way wrong. Constantly DC is a sick behaviour and others had paid the game also to have a good time, and not to swallow any ######### unsportsmanlike players wanna throw at then.

I agree that 5 minutes is a bit much for your first DC. It's sad that players even feel the need to DC in the first place, but I get it. Hell, I've done it. Most of us play to relax, enjoy, and have fun. Not feel forced to have to tolerate a style of gameplay that makes you miserable, which, in a way is what the penalty is doing in my opinion. Killers can play any way they want now ( not that they didn't before ) with the comfort of knowing that survivors have to deal with it, or take a " time out ", which is wrong, and it's making a lot of them be bigger douchebags. An insidious camping legion, an rbt tunneling pig, a face camping doctor. That's 3 that I faced last night. I don't understand that kind of gameplay. I mean, you're not learning anything, and you're not improving your skill..

They could easily fix this by taking away the button so you cant manually disconnect yourself
but yes there would be the few times the game has major bugs and you're forced to do so 🤷

Guys i wanted this to be a bait but maybe i didn't express it welI. I actually think dc penalties are fine you can't dc only because you don't like a perk or an addon of the opposit side. I wanted to joke about how short those penalties were.

Seems pretty fair to me. You do know there's other things to do to wait right? Books, other games, YouTube. There's many things you could do during 5 minutes.

Thank you. If there is somewhat of an emergency then just go AFK, and if you're hooked you're hooked.

Why be inconvenienced at all? Should be 1 second for first DC. It's not like you are inconveniencing 4 other players by DC'ing. Oh wait.... you ARE inconveniencing 4 other players! That's 4 other players that will get less value from their add ons, offerings and most importantly time. If the average game is 10 minutes long then you are costing 40 minutes worth of inconvenience by DC'ing. Therefore you should get 40 minute ban for first DC and add 40 minutes for each DC after that. Consider yourself getting off easy with 5 minutes.

5 minutes is fine, like a lot of people have mentioned. If you dc once for a good reason. 5 minutes is nothing. If your complaining about 5 damn minutes. Then you obviously dc for a dumb reason or you just dc cause you didn't like the match.

I hate this whole penalty for dcing because I just got a 6 hour penalty for the game giving me errors right after spawning in then kicking me back to main menu with dbd game errors, even after restarting over n over. I didn't DC once and I think it was like 5min, 12min, 15min, 30 min, 1 hour, 6 hours. Also, my internet wasn't having problems. Never thought I'd say this cause I love this game but unless they remove the penalty system until they fix their game errors..I won't play this unfair game anymore. Also, it was 24 hours since I last got a disconnect error and it appears there's no reset system. It just keeps adding on. What's after 6 hours? Like devs this is way strict and unfair when every time ur game gave me disconnect errors. Are you going to fix this or keep ignoring our complaints on twitter?!?!?

So many logical fallacies, nearly died.

Wow...before dc penalties it was "Devs need to do something about dcs". Now it's "It's too harsh". So what do you people want?

I already told what I want. Start reading already.

Why should I reboot my pc in the first place?

I think the first disconnect offense should mean BHVR call your parents and suggest they ground you for serious breaches of Toxicity and Sabotage of the highest order.
On second offense McCote should upload skynet.
Stop DCing, Save Humanity.

Iam wrong or can it be that some people want have a free dc?

5 min is not even close to be high and considering the fact that the 2nd DC is actually also only 5 min what I have heard.
Every other online multiplayer or pvp game has DC penalties, it's a normal und necessary thing since years. But this community is the only one that complains and cries about it with every kind of pointless excuses, says pretty much everything about the players attitudes and mindsets imo.

Defend them and pointing out how they blow an argument out of the water are two different things.

If you have really a freeze because of dbd, or some programm that runs in the background, or because of a variety of hardware reasons, you may need to restart your system.
Did I really need to explain that?
Comon I can't write every possible scenario here down, why a user could dc. That posting would go in the dbd forums history as the longest posting ever made by a single user :|.
