If you were affected by the Grade Reset Bloodpoints not being awarded properly, you will receive any missing Bloodpoints shortly. You may need to restart your game for the rewards to appear. Thank you for your patience!

People disconnecting on purpose.

Is there ever going to be a penalty for this? Just came back from a long hiatus after I heard they're revamping the game and all my games whether it be killer or survivor had at least 1 d/cer, and as a killer I had two games in a row where at least two survivors purposely disconnected (instantly leave while we're all loading).

I get how maybe some survivors are tired of playing nurse and hillbilly over and over again, but yeah, I am only hanging around rank 18 and this stuff has been happening regularly.

And instead of just penalizing those folk, perhaps we could offer them some rewards for staying at a high rank? :)

    Not until they introduce a casual mode, remove game breaking bugs and exploits, get rid or quickswitching and get an anti cheat engine, not like EAC= easily applied cheat

    Never seen anyone complaining about disconnect ban on any of the forums (this or Steam), never seen any screenshots of disconnect bans either. But I guess they are punishing them.

    I still see lots of people disconnecting on first time being downed or hooked - or just before last hook.

    Noone is complaining because the DC rate is probably somewhere at 70-80% till they take action

    I dont think you can be banned in the PTB
    Also there are lots of bugs, you never know why they DCed, even though the reason will most likely cus nurse OP or sth^^

    The rules should be followed in any form of DbD, especially in what is meant to be a "test" area. When people DC it stops the testing. People also complain and DC on people who "tryhard" in the PTB, when proper tests must be conducted on all playstyles in order to ascertain if something is good or not.

    It wouldn't surprise me if that was the reason.

    This game attracts entitlement.

    That’s hilarious. “Ah excuse me sir we only came to play with our cosmetics and the new survivor not to face a tryhard using such an op killer go uninstall please thank you”😂

    They do ban for DCing, it has to be a ton though.

    I got hit for one back in march when I was trying to derank from 1 to 20. ( Queue times were insane )

    I doubt that you deranked in PTB from 1 to 20 :wink:

    What was the punishment though?

    It was on live servers, there wasn't a PTB.

    24hour ban was the punishment.
