Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Match vs Ping - Please set a limit

in Feedback and Suggestions

In the before time (a year ago), DBD had a intelligible addition added to the game. Naturally, this is not a strong point for the game, so the Devs removed it. This was a connection meter in the lobby. This allowed you to see how strong your connection was going to be with the killer. This allowed you to bow out of the match, prior to it beginning, if you had a bad connection. For some reason, the devs removed this. Whatever.

To the point of this "Suggestion"... Please add limits or warnings to the player in the lobby if the connection is bad. I shouldn't get into a match and find out that my ping is 150-200. That's insane. This is definitely a match that I would have backed out of in the lobby. All this causes me to do is kill myself on hook to get out of the match, which people generally don't like.

To summarize, please find a way to warn players that they are connecting with a killer from Mars and the ping is pretty bad.

    All these random attempts from BHVR to reduce lobby dodging... just to show Survivor prestige to everyone on the lobby.
