[Suggestion] Add a (limited) DC Ban to PTB

While PTB is "just for testing", it is also an essential part of the game's development.

Because there is no Ban, you almost always have at least one DC per round. This affects proper testing, because sometimes you don't even get to hook a survivor.

So while I don't say it should be the normal DC penalties up to 3 days, it should at least include the first 4 stages of 5m, 15m, 30m and 1h. That way you can still play PTB, but you may not DC that much

    If they implemented a dc ban to PTB I'd never test anything ever lol there is times you are like "I've seen enough" it's not like we are wanting to win.

    It's not an essential part of the game's development. idk who told you that.

    The PTB is primarily promotional, and finding bugs the devs don't already know about is a secondary benefit. Testing out new perks/builds/killers is just a fun thing you can do while you're there. But it's not the main purpose the PTB is made public.

    If you want to test things uninterrupted, hop into a custom lobby with a couple friends.
