    not sure, but maybe once the dedicated servers become stable enough they will start implenting dc husks with dc punishments

    First they need to stabilize servers and after that is done they'll be implementing new features like The husk system.

    I wonder if the husk system will allow the killer to see that the survivor has DCed. I can only imagine killers who are use to slugging the 3rd to find the 2nd, to just...leave a husk up so it wont bleedout...INFINITE TIME TO FIND THAT LAST GUY!!!

    lol.

    Just dont slug for the 4K, when not all Gens are done and you got a 3K, you already won. There is no need for a Killer to have infinite time to find a Survivor (besides this could result in Hostage Situations).


    @topic:

    Sad thing about the Husk-Situation is, it only benefits the Killer. I mean, the Killer only cares for his BBQ-Stack, this is mostly the reason they complain about DCs (at least when going through the Topics about that)... For a Survivor it does not matter if there will be a Husk or not.

    Besides that, I doubt that DC-Penalties do anything. People will just kill themselves on Hook. And you cannot punish that.

    Slugging someone when i see the last person is fair game them dcing is just being unsportsman like the point is dcing is a problem regardless.

    Thats typically when I do it, but you'll have others thatll just search the map for the next half an hour, refusing to kill the husk.

    Difference with a 3k and 4k is 2500 points and a pip. Enough of a difference for me to want that 4k

    For survivors benefit, they can unhook the person still, along with heal points if they needed to etc. Maybe not at struggle phase obviously, unless they change that soon. But this has happened before with a DC, husk remained and I was able to get stacks as survivor :D Plus if you really wanted to and running by the husk you can hopefully get killer to aim at him or auto-target and boom free shield XD lmao jk sorta.

    The entire thing is because of the emblem system. That's why most killers end up slugging and why you see it so often in red ranks. And also why it's complained about. DCs can result in not getting a pip. Sometimes not even a safety.

    I hope DC does not become bannable because I see a lot of people with maybe poor internet getting wrongfully punished. Dedicated servers has been kicking out a lot of people.... counting them as "DCs"

    As for husks, they can make it so after a time, they start bleeding out or something. like a new timer on the body goes, like a BT or mend state that slowly drops.. Possible sometime after crows start, so you know where they are... unless they give you an aura to see them...(which im thinking, if your teammates healing then he knows where 2 people are due to his position..so idk about an aura) idk. Just to avoid time situations like that. The only concern of hostage I see is the killer may not know where the husk actually is for awhile. But some killers might just want to hook the husk and can't find them, and the other is being too immersed and the killer can't force hatch, EGC. That would be a frustrating miserable game. Im thinking it'll potentially be a husk, but still be considered a DC so the game will end once the person that is found gets hooked or so. (and hatch will also spawn) . Making the husk irrelevant in that regard. and merely be for the points.

    I imagine this is why it's not quite implemented in game yet.

    It can help survivors when a killer is camping if they can make it so they go through all phases but only if no survivor comes close 😉.

    It can in theory also give survivors some unhook points for emblems.

    Imo its why survivors should see when another dc's with the husk systen but not the killer as a dc really doesn't disadvantage the killer as much in game bar the BBQ points.

    It might even stop people from being overly altruistic overall when they are camping as that shows the killer they are still in game.

    It has the potential to change the game up and make slugging less attractive also since a survivor would know they can hide in a locker for a while as they know nothing can be done.

    Dcing is being looked at and different punishments are coming. As for killing themselves on the hook that can be looked at. One idea for example is you can try still try to unhook yourself the same amount of times but it only uses half the first stage bar so 30s of time, when you get into struggle they could rework the current mechanic and change it to a key press hold to give up but only after 30s. (if you are the hooked and everyone else dies you can then give up anytime). That gives the others a min of 60s over two stages to do gens or get saves.
