As for a timezone, it's been happening pretty much everyday ever since the map changes.
What will happen is that everything will be completely fine, and then suddenly the survivors will endlessly run in a straight line and ignore all my hits on them for around ten or so seconds before I am disconnected. I am given the points I had earned up to that point, but get hit with a DC penalty.
I am up to a six hour penalty now, and have no idea what could be causing this.

I keep getting this Quit game error, it forces me to quit the game, which gives me the penalty timer. Which i had up to 30minutes last week. I dont DC from the games, this freaking bug keeps forcing me to do so. SOOOO frustrating! I have validated my steam files just like it says too, and my steam files are good. this bug occurs about every 2 hours of non stop game play. Its hard to want to play the game or even play the game when I keep getting this error even more so when my brother is able to get on, oh, now i have to wait 30 minutes. t h a n k s D B D. Attached is a picture of the error i get.

The game breaks every time the match starts. The monitor turns black, the computer is very noisy, the only way out is to turn off the computer. Please help solve this problem.

Started healing, crashed and got the "Disconnection From Host" bug + DC penalty
2 -
PS4
North America (Eastern Canada Region Specifically)
Disconnecting from both killer and survivor games throughout the past two weeks or so. DC occurred twice in a row tonight (June 6th around 11pm-12am) in two different killer games. Games work perfectly fine, no lap or fps drop, then suddenly game stops and it sends me to main screen saying "No network connection", I still have wifi when it happens proven by being in a ps4 party chat with another player and the voice chat not disconnecting or buffering, as well as ps4 still being connected to wifi when i leave DBD to check after a disconnect occurs.
After the error occurs i can enter the main menu again right away and I am receiving the DC penalty.
I attempted to reinstall the game and play another killer game but yet again the same thing happened.
Hopefully there is a fix to this soon as im trying to finish this rift (I made it to 50 and bought it) but i wont be able to finish if i cant play the game due to disconnections and the time penalty

Start often happen this week, the last one DC 10/06/2020 23:30-23:40
I usually play this game on my holidays, starting almost from its release. And I have never had such problems before. Now, starting from the previous week, I was thrown out of stability every 5-6 matches and receive a penalty. I got the last penalty for an hour. (have something like 5 minutes 15 minutes 30 minutes before)
Also i want to add, that somehow it always save my progression. i mean i receive my BP and sometimes even rank up from these disconnected matches
Update: another one today 17:40.

I'm not sure, but maybe the problem is related to steam. I was playing CS:GO and randomly disconnected from the match, even though I had perfect internet, just like it happens in DBD. The good thing is that I get the chance to reconnect in CS:GO, in DBD I get straight up banned...

It can occur at any time it seems, this one happened at 5:24
This has been happening for a few weeks now and I can't take it anymore, 30 minutes is far too long for something I didn't even do and I bet if I play again it will be a day or something.

It happened again, my penalty for last time (24 hours) was removed, and in the 3rd match of the day it happened with a 48 hour penalty, its getting pretty annoying but it looks like you fix it fasts.

Again, 72 hour penalty because the game disconnected me, the last penalty wasnt remove so I had to wait 2 days to play again just to get disconnected again. The panalty should be removed if the game disconnect you, or remove that the penalty is bigger the more times you "Disconnect", but right now I only want my penalty to be removed.

"Disconnection From Host" bug while I was on hook + DC penalty

PC
Cologne, Germany
15 / 06 / 2020 about 11:30 am.
It already happened many many times and it is always the same. At a random point in the game the game freezes and I can not even look around. The game sound stays the same. For example if the game freezes while I am chased by the Killer I can still hear the normal sound of the Killers heartbeat. After a couple seconds i am in the end screen (where you can see your stats and how much BP you made) and it says "You were disconnected from the host" and it shows to me that the Killer disconnected, but I know that I got disconnected because it once happened when I was playing with my friend and he did not disconnect and the Killer did not disconnect either. They were playing the game and in the end it showed that I disconnected. But the weirdest thing to me is that I still get the BP I earned throughout the game and get to keep my Item. I reinstalled the game two times but it did not change. And my internet is not the problem because dbd is the only game this occurs and my Discord call does not get disconnected. I currently have my second 24h ban.
Edit: 17 / 06 / 2020 about 9:40 am.
Same thing just that it happned on my first Game and I now have a 48h ban. I still get my BP as if the Killer disconnects but yet I still get a ban as if I disconnect.
Last time I was too dumb to find my log data because I searched in Roaming but now I have it.

Also i just found out that DC most of the time appears after i start some specific action like ability of legion, grab survivors, close hatches. I dont want to sound rude, but please, can someone at least answer something or tell what can be the problem here (even if it appears really messing from my provider, it would be better than just silence). Because i am not sure does someone even read these reports from players. Sorry for my English. I am just upset that cant even properly play new patch

Just got a 6 hr ban have have been kicked out multiple times in multiple games. I will be performing an action or walking and my game will jitter for a sec and kick me out. Opposed to other games where if I lag out everyone will just run in place for a second and I get booted. I’m not sure what causes me to get kicked out but a little revision to the Penalty would help since there’s no way for me to play if this bug happens to me and it’s very unfun to have to sit and wait on a penalty that’s not my fault. Never got disconnected before dedicated servers either.

Playing on the Switch, from Germany.
For 1-2 Weeks now I get random freezes in Game. Doesnt matter which time of the day and which killer survivor I play.
2-3 matches fine, next Match starts, I do something, Game freezes.
First Game after penalty, Game starts, I move around, random freezes. Screen turns Black, loading screen, and then Main screen with "no network" which is not true because my Internet Works and is really fast.
First I thought it's a one time Thing.
But it happend so Often now that I have a 48 hour penalty now on my first Account.
I made a second Account because i wanted to play so Bad but theres a 24 hour ban now too.
I resetted my Switch, installed Game again, New Update, nothing Works.
Yesterday I Was able to play 2 games after a 24h ban until I got another freeze and disconnect,now banned for 48 hours.
It's just frustrating because i love this Game and it's Not fun anymore. :(

Made a second account.
What I have noticed is that there's always a Dwight nearby or the killer is Trapper.
After changing to wifi, the disconnects don't happen THAT often, but I just got one, albeit after 10 games, but I have noticed that people playing with Pyramid Head are getting DCs.
I don't understand. While this is happening, you should be able to know that it wasn't a normal rage quit or Internet outtage because we still get points. Make the penalty System recognize this

Forget about this, got another DC. 15 Mins. I was just running around.

PS4 NA east coast this happened June 17th evening. I was kicked out of both killer and survivor matches. Now I cant even play survivor because it won't form a party. My penalty is now over 15 minutes because of this and I lost hundreds of thousands of bp and experience plus not completing tome challenges or getting credit for things I've done.

Yesterday the whole day was without DC, i was hoping BHVR fixed everything, and now again 6 hour penalty
And yet, i am not asking to remove my penalty. I want to know what is going on and to be sure thats problem from my side, because for now there is no evidence of unstable internet connection.
I am afraid that player LECHUZ_A from Argentina will soon be banned forever for these random DC.
Reinstall game. reload my connection with Ethernet cable, The same result. 1:20
