Censorship in End-Game chat

I see it as one of 2 ways, either remove censorship from the end game chat or just remove the end game chat!

What is the point in having a system where half of the words you enter get blocked due to a poorly designed censorship system?

In my last game I wanted to question my teammates reasons for t-bagging at the exit gate...what got sent was "why did you ################# gate"?

I mean, it's so poorly done. The game has an 18 rating, can we just be done with this crap system.

    I think there's a middle ground, I think this system is just far too overzealous. I get the idea, but it's misguided- all this system needs to censor are outright slurs and maybe a few specific insults, even most curse words are probably fine. Even still, if it only censored outright curse words, that wouldn't be nearly as much of a problem.

    Short version: I'm on board with having people trying to call me the n-word or the f-slur censored, but there's no need to expand it to innocuous words.

    I have never seen normal phrases censored here. Pretty sure it is a different system for whatever reason.

    so called four letter words, slurs and common 1337 alternatives are all that's needed and yet words used in the game are blocked.


    it's a joke of a censor

    Or make it as an option to censor your chat or no. But that would be customizing ingame setting and we dont do that in this game

    Well this game is a trash, so what do you expect? Soon there will be few premieres of good games so this trash called "dbd" is going down

    It's great when "why did you ######### on first hook?" becomes "why did you #### ##### ##### your mother ####!"


    edit: it even did it here!
