Get rid of DC banning!
Ha ha ha yeah, I saw those posts and BHVR has done it.
just look how bad it is now since they removed DC bans and if anything DC bans should be even longer.
Makes me laugh as it even makes SWFs even more buffed, play with one of them and they DC then the rest DC.
Leaving 5 gens and 1 or 2 survivors to depip at the end.
If anyone decides to post to remove DC banning, the current state of DBD is where you'll find it.
Now if someone at BHVR secure their loaned Amazon servers then we can go back to enjoying the game.

I'd love the dc penalties to return but considering how you apparently dc whenever you're playing with a 3 man even when you're downed first and not even hooked I'm not entirely sure you would.

@GoodBoyKaru bring back DC penalties or also increase penalties?
Also why are you posting every single time I DC whenever I play with a 3 man SWF if I get downed first?

BHVR didn't remove DC penalties becouse of form posts, they removed them becouse apparently hackers managed to give people DC penalties for no reason. There were a lot of streamers who got banned for hours becouse of hackers.
That's why they removed them

till they can make it more secure from hackers i don't think it should.

you do know that they did not disable the DC penality system because of people crying on the forums and that they do plan on reactivating it as soon as possible, right?
there was an exploit that was gamebreaking and until that is fixed the DC penality system will stay inactive.

And when it comes back the disconnects will go back to hook suicides, and when one survivor gives up early the rest usually do after. It wasnt much better with them.
At least now if someone quits in the first 60 seconds I can quit too and find a new game. Whereas before when someone quit you got a few miniscule pity points and were expected to play out the rest of a tilted, unfun game. Punished despite doing nothing wrong.

I understand this is the case but haven't seen anything from BHVR to confirm that they have disabled DC penalties due to hacking though.
The post originally was intended to show people who requested the bans to be removed how it looks now which is worse than ever.
I'm concerned that hackers can do this as banning should only be done on a server side, for the server to do this makes me wonder what has been comprised. Very concerning.
The DC ban should be increased to remove the toxicity from doing so and improve our community which can spread

Because that's exactly what you did in a match vs me? I have the vod if you want proof?
I'm all for bringing back the penalties. They helped improve game experience and when I dced because I was sick I legitimately did take a break. They were healthy for the game.

I'm sorry you were sick @GoodBoyKaru .
I personally think they have to increase them or introduce a bad sports lobby, this game is far too toxic and only seems to spread the toxicity, e.g. survivors bring a key and the killer bring a mori into the next match.
You mentioned "you apparently dc whenever you're playing with a 3 man even when you're downed first" but that suggests I was playing with a 3 man SWF which nobody knows if they are until end game which makes it impossible for me to do and then to repeatedly do is impossible.
I may well have disconnected from a game you were in but can't give you a reason why as I don't know which one, posting that I do and do this repeatedly on a forum isn't nice. I'm not perfect like you so please trust me if I did disconnect I mainly do not.
Wishing you well and hope you message me if we are playing together, Andy

Just had a game were all 4 survivors DCd as soon as I moried the guy with a key. It was an Ivory mori.

Well if Pale Rose vs Pyramid Head on 24th July 2020 at 00:56am rings a bell it's that.
Sick meaning "sick and tired" or just "fed up" by the way.
You then made a forum post immidiately after your dc complaining about SWFs dcing when a friend was downed. @MaybeShesCrazy remembers this thread well im sure.

Punish hook suicides. Done.

While I do remember the thread I really wished an open talk could have be held about it. Maybe one day it will be. Maybe not in that thread - but maybe another - one that has both a DC'ers POV on a game experience and one on the other end.
Currently we do have an abandonment BP for games. I don't think it's quite working all the time the way it is suppose to though. It gives the people abandoned a 600 I think bump and it also -1 from the DC'er rank.
I had a whole SWF team DC on me today. The killer apologized to me after. I was on the hook when they did it. No coming back from that. It wasn't the killers fault, they didn't do anything wrong. A teammate died and they DC'd. I had another group that I'm not sure if they were SWF or not, but same thing. Honestly - I didn't care because if someone doesn't want to be in the game - I'd rather for their sanity and the team - they didn't.
I do wish they'd not do it on first down though. At least give us a chance to prove we will be there for you as a team. I guess if they've had one too many bad experiences though - it's hard for them to trust the team. I know - I've had those moments. I've had teammates leave me to bleed out for no good reason a few weeks back. Sucks - I would have been absolutely in my rights to DC at that point without benefit to them and without a penalty on my end. I didn't. I died and moved on to the next game.
See I do do that. I admit this full and frankly think it's okay.
Reasons so far:
- Teammate is about to get pummeled for trying to rescue me.
- I'm being camped to high heaven and another teammate is for sure going to go own and I'm probably in the basement.
- Teammates self-healing right beside me or doing gens while I'm going into second phase. I mean seriously what kind of nonsense is that?
- Teammates ignoring getting off hooks until the last second, again that puts someone into phase 2 and the second they are hooked again they are dead.
- Teammates all rushing from across the field, getting off gens to get BP. Gesh man only one needs to come the rest need to stay on gens. Chances are the lot of them are going to end up going down. I'm actually saving them from themselves lol. Seriously think about it - I actually am.
- When you have an obvious SWF that involves the killer. Oh helk no am I dealing with giving a cheating teammate and killer extra BP's.
- An SWF that obviously is only looking out for each other and not the whole team - yup - bye bye.
So above are some reasons some may think are selfish but I think they are sanity savers and if anything the other parties behavior is unfair.
Some are very much for the team.
I actually have accidentally done it a few times too when someone was almost there, I thought they had me and stopped spacing and yikes. Oh that's bad. I feel awful when that happens. It's happen I think 3 or 4 times. I am more careful now.
I think those are pretty legit reasons and I've experience a load of those. It gets very frustrating to play that game, after game, and not suicide and say "oh, forget this" and move on to another game where you can actually have fun with people.

Lemme amend what I said before: Punish super early hook suicides. The ones that are clearly just fueled by a desire to ragequit. Stuff like suiciding to give someone the hatch or suiciding because you're already down a person and someone else is on the hook at 5 gens still is okay. Hook suiciding in a way that basically just screws the entire team over is not okay in my book, and that's what should be punished.

The above I gave you - many of those are early suicides. At least the negative team based ones - not the ones where I am saving my team .
...and the trouble with that is this: they are subjective to a judgement call and I'm sure there are times my judgement has been wrong. Although I'm fairly good at sniffing out these people.
I can't say that a number of those kinds of games in a row don't jade you a bit, and skew that judgement. I have to be careful that what I feel, and what I'm sensing, and seeing, are matching up before I suicide. I have to be completely honest to when I say ... after many bad games like that in a row... I error on the side of it being bad teammates or the teammates having ulterior motives. Not always - but a lot.
Is it right? It all depends on your POV.
The honorable ones - I think for sure are good reasons.
The really subjective ones? There is only so much I will allow myself to be subjected to in terms of the above and I think that's fair. The trouble though is a double edged sword. My rights to have fun and someone else's need to balance. These are the things I have to consider. If you are having fun at your teammates expense. That's not a team. Count me out. That's my POV.
I stink to high heaven at this game, but I try so when my teammates pull those kind of stunts. Simple it's a no-thank you. I will however never suicide just because the game is bad and I have teammates that suck like me. Those games are kinda funny.
DC'ers. Puzzle me. Though I do understand if it's like what I've mention. (When teammates are purposefully messing you over. Even then I don't DC that punishes me - not them - which is where it should be.)
Makes sense?

@TAG Sorry I forgot this - yes rage quitting I would agree with. Like a first downed situation. That's silly of them imho.
