Aren't DC penalties supposed to reset to 5min after a couple days?
Crashed for first time in 3 or 4 days. Played probably 50+ games in the 3 or 4 days since last crash where I'd gotten a 15min penalty.
I received a 15min penalty not 5min, I was under the impression it reset. Ps4 if that matters.

If it supposed to decay from 15 to 5 which it didn't you may want to look into it instead of just giving a dismissive reply "community manager" lul

It would decay from 15 to 10 and then you crashed making it 15 again.... how’s that hard to understand?
5 -
So it decays once every 4 days? Or did you not read the post?
4 -
What is the decay period? Or rather, how long does it take to decay one point?
4 -
There is no 10min ban. They escalate from 5 to 15 to XX. The 4 days in between should have reduced it to 0.
How hard is it not to comment on something you are completely ignorant of?

It's 15 minutes for 2 DC's within a 24 Hour Period.
It's 5 Minutes for your first DC, if you DC again within 24 hours, it will increase to 15 minutes.
Stop DC'ing and complaining about it on the forums.

A - I'm not complaining I am reporting a bug
B - I play a lot I crash every 30 games or so. People rarely intentionally DC where they can simply suicide on the hook nowadays fyi.

Yup because everything in DbD works flawlessly and it's irrational to point out things aren't working as intended...

What? You don't like the fact that every window is a god window? Or the house of pain? Or the Great Wall of Haddonfield? Or just boring gameplay in general? ´Well my game always crashes when Survivors use these Map offering idk why tho. Must be a bug.
Wait theres Penalty now! Oh no, i dc´d because the Game is so bad developed!! devs undo this pl0x to let me keep being toxic to others!
I got a penatly without reason! Lmao!
As a non-Dc Player ima big Fan of the penatly system! It doesnt solve entirely the behaviour of players, but it helps.
If you got Potatoe Internet, your problem. Its 2020, and even if its not "competitve"... its kind of competitve, so dont play such games with such bad internet.

no need to DC anymore, now we won some points and suicide on the first hook. ez

Mmm you got me there, but your post says (3) to 4 days meaning it can decay to 5 then go to 15 then. So I got you 😉 it would have been 3 days and it decayed on the second. Why is it so hard to not be ignorant yourself.
Speaking of the 2 day mark seems that’s been edited out? I dont know what happened to the assumption of 2 days prompting my reply. Perhaps it was just a guess all along and if so I agree the dev should just announce the decay time.

Is that... a Quick-Play Trap card?

I can tell by your ######### attitude that your game wasn't crashing. nice rage quits bro. enjoy your ban. 😂

DC penalty is exclusively targeted towards killers.
If a Survivor's having a bad time, they can kill themselves in under 10 seconds (or the killer is holding the game hostage, which is reportable/bannable) while the only thing a killer can do to get out of a game quicker without DCing is AFKing... which is, guess what, "Unsportsmanlike", and reportable!

One of the most ######### comments seen on this forum. And thats something.
Gotta love this keyboard smashers. Thank you for salting my fries with those tiers, optic fiber titan!

Man I cant IMAGINE why he wouldnt respond to comments like THIS!?
Seriously though, he told you what was up. It decays, it doesnt reset.
You saying it's another 15 min ban means you're either fibbing about the time frames or what ban you were on, or even that you crashed and didnt DC.
But being a snippy ######### about it surely wont bring you any more answers.

Wow, the amount of people who flat out refuse to read and respond only to what they wanted to hear is depressing. His penalty should have completely reset over a 3 day period. Why this is so hard for so many people to understand is concerning. Whether he's lying is a different matter. Y'all should at least be able to understand what he's saying and respond appropriately if you want to pretend that your responses have any meaning.
5 -
i guess everyone of us did clearly understand his concern. Wether Hes dcing for purpose and basically lying, or hes the only player out of thousand on this forum, and guess what is more likely?
1 -
Then why out of everybody saying things are working right and he's complaining for nothing are you the only one who said anything about him lying? Even Peanits straight out ignored the fact that he said there was 3 days between his disconnects.
0 -
Because i do support the penalty system. 3 days or not 3 Days, for me he could be perma banned, i couldnt care less about dcíng people, know how to fix the issue? dont dc. Very simple.
1 -
If you're trying to imply that you and others are actually reading stuff properly before replying, that post definitely didn't help your message. That wasn't a response to either what I said or this thread. Definitely you hearing what you wanted to hear and then responding to your own imagination.

If you are reporting a bug, post this in the bug report section, or open a ticket with the support team. This is not the place to do so.
1 -
Man literally no one even listened to your concern, feels bad man
3 -
Haha no worries I don't expect much on this forum (worst dbd community?)
This wouldn't be the first time over the years when something wasn't working as intended and people didn't care then it showed up fixed in the patch notes a month or two later.
4 -
Okay so here is how it works as far I as I can gather.
copy + paste from another thread:
"First time: 5 mintues
2nd time: 5 minutes
3rd: 15 minutes
4th: 15 minutes
5th: 30 minutes
6th: 30 minutes
7th: 60 minutes"
So if you had DC'd 4 times then your last penalty would be 15 minutes. If you decay at a rate of one rank per day then yes, after a couple of days you can still DC and be right back at 15 minutes. It's easy to lose track of these kind of things. It could be 2 days 22hrs (which you would perceive as 3 days) between disconnects and you would go from rank 2 right back to rank 3 (15 mins). It seems more likely that you just lost track of them as opposed to it not working right. Regardless this is one of those topics that won't generate a lot of sympathy from players and your attitude doesn't really help either.

I thought the game tracked whenever a player unintentionally left the trial? Was that not right? There has been a few times where I got disconnected from a match at no fault of my own. I have very strong internet and occasionally I have noticed that this is the only online game that I play that disconnects me for no reason.
TC, I understand what you're saying but they have to close monitor intentional DC's versus the unintentional.

Wow, i'm amazed at the number of people on here who act like the game hasn't had crashing issues for the entirety of it's existence. Gotta love them spineless dev apologists, eh?
4 -
This is why I'm against the penalty. It's buggy, messy and not fit for this game. I feel like they shouldn't have rushed it and fixed the bugs and stuff. Plus it's way too harsh for a party game.
Example: Overwatch only has a penalty when you leave 7 matches, and it starts soft but then it soft-band you from joining for a few minutes, then gives you an exp penalty. All that increases with the number of bans and only decreases with games played on their entirety.
That seems like a much better system
0 -
I agree here. People who play a lot (including me) encounter many Crashes, bugs, hostage situations etc so it should be the same penalty like someone who plays 2 gamey per day and rage quits in both of them
1 -
They do decay, one level every 12 hour im pretty sure.
