I want dc bans but this system is extremly bad
Ima keep this short but straight to the facts
People who dc alot should get punished
People who only dc when they are being hostage in the game or even worst honestly a farming killer. Or something like a surviver is body blocking you or working with the killer or maybi if you bugged and cant move
You should not get banned just because you dc once in like 20 games.
You should get a ban for 5 min or something if you dc every 4-5 games.

Sorry, but if you dc 90% of the time you should be punished way more than 5 minutes.. specially since it takes so long to find a game nowadays.. you get into a game just to have one of the players disconnect and ruin it for you.
I like the way it is right now as it escalates the more you dc... I just wish the game had a system to identify when it's the actual game's fault. Like sometimes the game wont load the match.. or you get a weird bug where you can't see your hud... stuff like that.

yes if you dc multiple times the timer increased from 5 minits and then something else like the current system dont know how the current system is but i tested to dc my first dc in like 30 games and i got insta 5 min ban

Agreed. A halfbaked system implemented at the wrong time.
Also interesting how gamebreaking bugs that causes issues the last time this penalty system was in the game still haven’t been fixed yet in that time they’ve managed to tweak and implement the penalty system.
It really shows a lack of care or concern for the players.

I'm curious - why all of a sudden are you so against DC penalty's? This was never a point of contention with you before. Do you make a habit of DCing? Just a question.

Bugs and server issues. Bugs that have been in the game since the last dc penalty trial which caused literal disconnect standoffs still not addressed. Bugs going back years still not fixed. Developer track record of putting out half baked updates which add more bugs than they fix. Toxic community willing to troll just to try and get other people to disconnect.
If over the next 2 weeks they fixed half the bugs in the game, promised extensive testing on all future updates and the next one came out almost bug free then I’d feel a lot better about it.
Then they just need to address WHY people disconnect because right now everyone suicides on hook and I know people say “mub bbq stackz!!” but to me it makes no difference its still a thrown game that sucks for everyone else left behind and I think a lot of us would rather be given a forfeit option.

Oh, so all of a sudden you're running into all these issues 100x more now that DC penalty's are a thing?
I'll let my man Ace (not of the Visconti variety) speak for me here.

This is what I mean by people being unable to see anything further than directly what’s in front of them.
Complaints have escalated dramitically about these now because it’s actually punishing people. If you got a crash before you reloaded. Now you reload and wait 5 minutes. If you get a gamebreaking bug before you quit. Now you get stuck have to quit and get punished. People are now trying to play toxic to bait disconnects purely because theres a disconnect punishment.
It doesn’t take a genius to find out why once people are punished for issues in the game people become more vocal about said issues.
In fact I don’t know how you have the cheek to say this is only being brought up now. People have complained about the bugs for YEARS. Know why it stopped? Because the devs either obviously weren’t listening or were incapable of fixing them. Now that people are being punished though they are saying “enough is enough”. God forbid players ask for a reliable game without too many issues. How entitled!

I'm just pointing out there you complain about a lot of things, which is your right of course and I'd never look down on you or call you a troll for having an opinion different than mine like you've done to me...but this in particular is only an issue for you now? It wasn't before? That's why I find it curious. Makes me feel almost as if the old DC tech is a play style of yours.

This is pretty spot on for me.
