question about time penalties

this is a question to the devs , how long until you take this unfair time penalty system out of the game ? also will the time penalties be reduced since they are so ridiculous now ?


and my second question to anyone who wants to answer it , what is the clown level called ?

    I'm not a developer, but I can tell you with almost complete certainty that the DC penalties will not be removed from the game, unless the developers decide that they are harmful to the game which is not the case currently and not likely to be the case any time soon, if ever.

    As for the penalty lengths, the team appear to be happy with what they have right now, but they will continue to monitor the system and how it is performing and may make further changes to it if they deem it necessary.

    I'm not sure what you mean by the "clown level". Would you be able to elaborate on that a bit further?

    ok first of all I don't understand why you think you can tell me or anyone else who bought and play the game that they have to be punished for an unfair amount of time , and if you or anyone else is toxic enough to want this either now or in the future the player base for this game will drop dramatically because having a 1 hour penalty for dc-ing only twice is completely unfair and no one will play the game anymore cuz they can't stay 24/7 in front of a computer screen or they want to play something else and then come back to this game in 20/30 minutes so people will d-c at some point and they won't come back if they can't even play because of the wait times .


    And what do you mean by "the team" ? you just said your not a developer so I have no idea on who's behalf you are speaking . if you are referring to your "team/friends" that want to keep these unfair and ridiculous time penalties because you are all toxic I frankly don't care because people will stop playing the game because of the reasons I mentioned above and just toxic players will stay on this game like you and will be forced to wait a long time since no one will end up playing , but like I said I don't care if the penalties remain as less and less people will play and if that is the case I'd rather not play then waste my time waiting to play against toxic people like you who ruined the game .

    Wow, so now I'm toxic for trying to help you? Good to know, I guess I won't bother next time 😕

    For the record, you shouldn't be getting a one-hour penalty for disconnecting twice. If that's happened to you, you should file a bug report here: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/categories/bug-reports

    And by "the team", I meant "the development team". I'm not a developer, which is why I said that they "appear" to be happy with the penalties as they are now. I'm not speaking on anyone's behalf, I'm going off what I've heard them say on stream and on the forums.

    It looks like you're just looking for someone to lash out at because you're upset about the game. But I'm not interested in being that person, sorry. I've answered your question, so if you're just going to keep attacking me, don't expect any further response.

    I didnt realize it was a bug thats why I called you toxic because I thought you agreed with the 1 hour ban time for dcing twice from a game , but I'll put this as a bug in the forums .

    @batmanscar

    The DC Penalty System was implemented to counter-act the growing issue that DCing in-game possesses.

    I don't see how DCing twice would give you a 1 hour ban, if it did than yes please do file it as a bug in the Bug Reports sub-forum, i'll link it below at the end of my write up.

    And for the second question, the "Clown Level" is called "Father Campbell's Chapel", which is also a part of the "Crotus Prenn Asylum" map category, the other map that's in this category is the Disturbed Ward.

    anyways, here's the bug report sub-forum link

    Good idea. For the record, just because someone has a different opinion from you doesn't make them toxic, and it's best not to throw names like that around because it doesn't help anyone, especially not yourself.
