    Look at it this way, if killers dc enough on just that map then the devs might change it. Worked for survivors right?

    Perfect example on why they need to return. I don't like a lot of indoor maps, yet I play them anyway. Some maps are more suited for killers and I play my best. I was Ghostface at Spirit's Home and i hated it. I love the map as survivor though. I played the map, lost badly, survivors tea bagged, I sucked it up and continued on

    True but they have been increasing the past few months and Behaviour doesnt appear tk have done much about it.

    You know what isnt rare though? Trolls. People that have no intention of playing normally, or working with the killer, or sandbagging.

    DC penalties should go once bots are in so that people that want to rage quit at least leave everyone else with a bot.

    Had a killer dc on us, and when we were in the after game just chatting, the killer TYPES my internet connection went out on me! hmmm well 1) if you can type to us your internet connection didn't go out. 2) you said that to try and fool some idiots that you didn't intentionally dc. the couple times in almost 2 years i lost internet while playing dbd i lost all connection to the game i was in before and after dedicated servers.


    This is why we need the penalties, and they are not stiff enough, maybe for the first it's good but only adding 5 minutes on the second and another 5 on the third? come on that's too light. this is not an esports game true enough but however it IS a competitive game. that means you are compeating to see if you win against another person or not. If you will earn blood points in a match dc penalties should exist.

    I actually like the bot idea. Like, yeah, the bots will be terrible... but at least the bot would try to do objectives instead of just giving up on hook if they bring back a d/c penalty. Hell, a bot working on a gen is better than half the potatoes you get as teammates at red rank in solo queue.

    bots are not for actual games but a practice mode on mobile games. bots in a real game would be predictable and would get 4k's as well as execute dead hard perfectly timed without indication of looking backwards. lots of issues there.

    The killer might be right my internet does this to itll fall to like McDonalds internet for a second randomly then spike all the way back up to normal so i could get dcd but my internet seems fine because it all happens in the span of 2 seconds.

    doubtful, possible yes, but very doubtful. that blink would litterally be within a millisecond otherwise the three way handshake that is used for the connection would be lost. I'm a network specialist and I know how these routers work, and you're going through a minimum of 4. your router, your isp's router at the isp central, atleast ONE intermedary router and finally the dedicated server's router. there could easily be more, and in very rare instances only 3. but that's at minimum 3 routers that have to keep connection, and if it looses the signal in a millisecond or less it will time out. (this is how you have a 112 ms ping since that's how long it takes your signal to go from your pc to the destination and back).

    I just DC every time when Doctor is my Killer. Penalty or not - waste of time trying to fight him. One time he didnt found me whole game, WHOLE game, until one gen, and only me and her on hook left... Game over. ######### that. Now i DC every single time on start. SOmetimes Freddy too, when i dont feel like i want running around whole map like a moron.

    I also want two gamemodes added. One is an Ai killer with you and three Ai bots. The other is you as killer and 4 Ai bots. This would work as training modes to practice and so that newcomers could get a better feel. Valve did this in their Left 4 Dead games.
