    Devs - Please do not remove the DC penalty.

    OP - Help your guy get a better connection because in order to get a thirty minute timer, s/he might need some improvements there.

    The wierd thing is me, an Xbox player, and my three room mates (Two PS4, One PC) are all yet to disconnect since Deidcated Servers came out.

    The thing is you even said yourself why he disconnected. "one of are guys lagged out". This is due to his connection.

    still it counts it as a Dc so they need to fix that or not have it at all

    It is a disconnect. There’s nothing wrong with the DC penalty applying in the story given in the OP.

    I want you and your friends to play, too. Having the bandwidth to be able to play online is a base requirement for multiplayer games or it ruins other players experiences, even if you and your guys are willing to look past it.

    I would fully support removing/lowering DC bans. I have never in 2 years had a problem with players DCing, in my survivor matches or my killer matches. Sometimes, I have agreed with their decision to head out, no one should be forced to take abuse, in a game that should be enjoyable. And if I was mildly inconvenienced by it, well there is always the next round.

    You cant blame/punish someone for having poor internet as it could be all they have available in their area or all they can afford.. besides half the time its DBD's servers having the issues anyway.

    I won't lie, dbd's servers at times feel like they are mushed together like a raspberry pi that was mistakenly put into a sandwich, but at the same time you have to purely recognise that despite the poor connection (Expecially in this scenario) its not the devs fault? Hell i was getting disconnected from half my games last week which sucked and i honestly thought i had something wrong with my pc/wrong with the servers in nz, but i waited and they've evened out. even bought myself a new wifi dongle to use since mine was showing issues (being 9 years old as it was.) Nothing but stable internet since.

    I get it. There are people who cannot afford a computer, console, or the price of the game either.
