I've had so many 3v1s and even some 2v1s because people disconnect during loading screen or right after game begins.
Please make this a quality of life update.
Game is supposed to be 4v1 and it shouldn't even be a match if it is 3v1 or even less survivors.

    I agree with the first part. If every player doesn't connect, the game should not start.
    I do however not agree with the second part. I get that it is really annoying when people disconnect just because they are the first to go down (it happens too often) , but if the game ended if they did, then more people would probably do it, cause "it doesn't hurt the team". This would however just create an endless loop of unfinished games.

    This would just incentivize DCing on a map you don't want to play. You wouldn't be able to play the game.

    I agree with point 1, the game should always start with 4 survivors.

    Point 2 however i don't it would get abused.

    1. Get a map you don't like = DC
    2. Get a map that does not work with your build = DC
    3. Against a killer you don't like to play against = DC

    The list goes on.

    I would rather play than have to go through the lobby again, especially if it was a long wait to begin with. I just pretend I turned the difficulty up one setting.

    This would be the root of so much ######### behavior and effectively ban the nurse at high ranks, so the answer is no.

    Or give us an AI controlled Survivor until the player comes back to the session if they lagged out of the instance(would make more sense if it were a Dedicated server like Fortnite save the world), If the player doesn't reconnect. Penalize them with a reduction of their blood points AND Shards. to discourage DCing... Yea it sounds harsh but alot of nasty behaviors would be corrected if what they worked for were taken away.

    The match should not start when someone dc's during loading screen.

    However, as soon as the game has started, it has to go on. Everything else would just encourage people to dc against all kinds of things they don't like.

    The funny part part is that they can't punish dcs in loading screen and you know why ? Cause they can't tell if it's the survivor who dcd or its their sh... game that freezes all the time. Just saying while I am typing this my game just froze as a killer and I alt- tabbed so I can search on the forums why this bullshit havent been fixed yet / second time freezing for the past hour/. So if u see someone leaving during loading screen and u have some slow load its most likely someone froze instead and after he alt+f4 you enter the stage. So it is the devs do blame here I'd sade like half the time

    This is not a quality of life update...this would make the game nothing but lobby sim entirely with how mass survivors d/c over just being downed once, The devs need to actually start punishing d/cing constantly so the epidemic stops.

    That should be changed as well, of course. Someone dc's during loading screen = the match doesn't start and everybody keeps their offerings etc.

    I get your point. If they see a mori offering, only one of the SWF group would need to dc. In the end, none of them would reach the critical rate of disconnects to get banned.

    So don't show "secret" offerings anymore in the loading screen. The same goes for mist, map offerings and black ward. Then people would have no "reason" to dc during the loading screen. The only dc's remaining would be legit dc's.

    I had survivors DC if I throw in good exp offerings too, they suggested a sweaty tryhard I guess.....

    Then let's just quit showing any other player's offerings in the loading screen at all.

    Well I would support this.
    Even this alone would diminish loading screen DCs by a lot^^
