9 from 10 Killers leave to early

I love this game, but since one month, i'm waiting and waiting and waiting again for a lobby and this is so troublesomešŸ˜ If i find a lobby (after hours), 9 from 10 killers leave before the game starts and i must waiting again. Why they leave all the time and what is the problem to change something to make the game great again. They have enough money, right? At the moment it's only sh*t, sorry, but that's the truth...!

    Thanks for your answer. Reason 1, 2 and 3 are not reason's to leave the lobby before the game starts. These are only reason's when the killer is a little pu**y or a baby that is crying when he loose a game.

    I have solo no problems getting into lobbies, too. But that the game starts is the problem because the killers always leave the lobbies and this is the problem. Do you understand what i mean?

    Figure out why you are being lobby dodged, then change that.

    Yeah something needs to be done about the lobby dodging for sure. It makes wanting to play with your friends almost completely unbearable. You spend more time playing lobby simulator than actually playing the game.

    That's why they're making all survivors appear at the same time in the future (SWF or not), another way to reduce lobby times

    It's the result of years of bullying :(

    You didn't mention dodging people with high ping which is very frequent. The half of my dodges are due the ping, specially since a few time ago the game put asians with 300+ ping in my lobby (I'm from Europe), I have no idea why.

    If I think I'm going up against a SWF group, I'll just leave the lobby and join another one.

    As far as the devs changing things so that all survivors spawn in at the same time. If they do it, I'll just DC if I'm put up against a group of toxic survivors, right up until they bring in harsher punishments for DC'ing. At that point I'll just stop playing the game all together.

    I've gone up against hundreds of SWF groups. The vast majority have ended in me being abused. I play the game because I want to get enjoyment out of it. Being told to kill myself because I killed someone does not give me enjoyment. Nor does going up against a SWF team all carrying flashlights and running DS. Not to mention the fact that going up against SWF as a Rank 1 killer is like playing on Veteran mode. Verbal communication shouldn't be a part of the game. That's why killers dodge lobbies. That's why killers DC.

    Survivors (and the developers) need to realise that without killers, there is no game. Treat them like ass for long enough and they'll just stop playing. Which is what is happening. Wondering why lobby times are horrendous? Because there aren't enough killers playing the game.

    I always dodge if I smell toxicity. This can be based on outfits or names or items. I always dodge people with YT or TTV in their name. The problem is that a few bad experiences led me to doing this, and I probably end up dodging a lot of "innocent" survivors.

    I wont stop, because after a day at work I dont want to have ######### games because of people who have nothing better to do than ruining fun for others.

    You resumed it so well.

    Almost 1 month without even opening DBD because i was a killer main and sooooo many bully childs.

    Game is not worth for killers now ... no rewards no incentive ...

    BHVR think that survivors are the core ... but guess what they are wrong !

    I always thought ā€œif Iā€™m hosting the game shouldnā€™t I be able to kick people with high ping that join my lobby?ā€
