The D/C's are real...

Please fix the d/c penalty system soon; its a shame that as soon as the penalty system is turned off, folks just immediately go back to the bad behavior of d/cing whenever they 'disagree' with something... whether it be the map that was picked, or the killer they just "don't like" or the fact that the killer used a mori (when a challenge or ritual calls for it or not)... this continues to just inconvenience other players and drags the game down.

At least it confirms that the penalty system works. Game was great to play when it was enabled and un-hacked.

    I agree, me and my friend just had two games in a row where a fellow survivor disconnected immediately as the match began.

    It just ruins the entire match, it is a guaranteed de-pip and its so unfair, and also its just unfun.

    No, don't bring it back the dc penalty yet UNTIL they fix the game especially hacker/cheater

    Otherwise we have to deal and force to play against hacker/cheater

    They only should fix the DC time stacking glitch or whatever it was.

    If you dont want to play with hacker or cheater, dont play. You cant stay 100% save. Everygame have cheaters and its impossible to 100% get rid of it.

    Also in DbD, they are extremley rare.


    DC Penaltys are great and important and if you dont like it, leave or eat it.

    I miss the DC penalties. Was watching a killer stream last night and every round 2 people would DC.

    Tombstone, really? If you have Myers I want you to try Judith's Tombstone + Tuft Of Hair a few games and see how effective it is. Honestly it's more effective to not run any addons since you have full movement speed and reaching EW3 doesn't take draining 3 and a half survivors of Stalker Juice. (Which in a real match and not a hypothetical vacuum, is EXTREMELY hard to do since murphy's law will be you can't find that last survivor, or you can't find the obsession to get PYWF stacks so you can move at a normal movement speed unless you bring Nemesis or something to get a new obsession, but that's 2 perk slots banked now.)


    You can also avoid being tombstoned by hiding in a locker.


    IMHO the only "BS" tombstone combo is Tombstone Piece + J Myers Memorial for fast stalking or Judith's Journal and Nemesis for fast stalking on the obsession you can switch. I say it's a cheesy combo because Tombstone Piece has no movement speed reduction and with a stalking addon you can hit EW3 relatively fast.


    Iri heads, Insta-saw Infectious Billy, and a tunneling Pyramid Head suck to play against but Tombstone Myers, as threatening as he is on paper, is arguably enjoyable to play against because if the killer wants to use tombstone he's not going to be tunneling anyone out of the game super quick + there's a sense of urgency of if you're going to finish the gens and get out before he hits EW3 and finds everyone.

    Had a lot of other survivors DC yesterday night. In one match, I'm pretty sure it was a SWF because 3 of them were being super toxic and as soon as one of them went down, they would DC. I was left alone against the killer in a matter of minutes of the match starting. Fun.

    Had a game yesterday where I played Billy for my daily. I find a Claudette and hit her with an M1. Not even using my chainsaw. She was only injured. She just stopped and disconnected. These kinds of survivors have no shame.

    You're probably just noticing them more because you know the systrem is currently off, just like killer said that hook suicides were rampant after the DC penalty but was confirmed by the devs thast hook suicides haven't increased at all.
