DC Grace Period Too Long
I can get it if people actually don't load into the game. But why can I load into a game, walk to a generator, get a down, hook someone; then be in the middle of the second chase when some salty survivor DC's and the entire game is nullified cause they know i'm about to beat them? That's probably the 3rd time this has happened recently.

I think this is a bug. One survivor doesnt load in, in the game they appear afk, then after a minute or so it says they disconnected and ends the game but they never actually loaded into the trial

I've had people load into my game and get crows immediately. I'm pretty sure this is ragequits but if you do it in the first 45 seconds to a minute it's free. It's only happened when im ######### over the SWFs. Coincidence?

Yes, actually. I've had people im SWFing with DC within 20 seconds because they heard the Spirit's whoosh for the 9th game in a row (which, honestly same) and the game continued like normal. Its a bug, not some new SwF oP eXpLoItS fOuNd SoUnD tHe NeRf GuN

As survivor ive had the opposite. Someone disconnects within the first minute and the game plays on.

Yeah, the system is buggy sometimes. I got games which got cancelled after a minute, because the game did not realize that someone DCed in Loading Screen. But I also got games which started with 3 Survivors and a DCed Survivor, because the game did not realize that someone DCed.
The system has Bugs sometimes, but overall it is working.

Please keep this on topic of the original post and don't start fighting.

What also sometimes happens, someone has DC'd during loading but that information is not getting to the server in time to prevent the game from starting - so you can load into a map, play for 30seconds (for example) then the match ends once the Server recognises that the player did not load in.
Also, if someone DC's during the game - that does not end the game, even if they DC the instant they load in. It's only when a player hasn't loaded in that it ends the game.

Could Do in dbd what overwatch and i think rainbow do. If theres a dc in the first minute the match gets canceled and the dcer gets a harsh punishment. (Then just refund everyones stuff except the dcer).

@supersonic853 I personally don't think that's needed, to cancel the whole match for that happening - as I could see it getting abused by groups that play together, load in, map they don't like, killer they don't like etc...one of them would just DC so that the whole match gets cancelled. I don't really think that's an ideal scenario for DbD.

Yeah I guess overwatch and rainbow also punish it by hitting the whole team with the penalty if its a party and you lose a crap ton of sr so the dcs are pretty punished. But is it really fair if its a 2man swf rn and they dont like their facing a freddy so they insta dc and now the other 2 just get murdered and lose their stuff? Which is honestly the fairer option the match gets canceled and noone loses anything but the dcer and their group. Or the survivors now are down 1-2 people against a killer which you have no idea what their running? I wouldnt want to face a forever freddy with 1 other person and lose my purple medkit because the 2man bailed.

I figured it out after thinking about it. This was just run of the mill hacks. I forgot the hackers have the capability to click a button and end the game these days. This thread can be closed.
