DC penalties

When they were on Xbox they were fine for me, and all of my mates on other devices find them fine.

In my opinion it does nothing but enables people to bully eachother.

I absolutely love them. It doesn't stop ALL, it doesn't stop hook suicides, but it has made games much better since being implemented. IMO anyway.

but you need a way to leave a match that is locked in a loop or in a bugged state. it's known that if some bugs happen there is no way to get out except close the program, or use the leave match button in the menu. If people didn't decide this would be a fun thing to continue to use we'd not be here. I have seen people who would disconnect because they didn't like how a killer player would nod their head when they downed them, how they would do x or y or hey i'm rubberbanding I'm out. One streamer would do this 5-10 times a night! in some of these I was playing as a survivor with her, sure i accepted it but what am i going to say? just didn't like it personally.

I think it's fine as it is? I'm satisfied with how it's working so far.

I like that it's case by case basis though. It's treated more humanely than a simple ban just because you were having a bad day but wanted just ONE game that was decent, but also didn't have the forethought to quit after thirty minutes of waiting and quitting.

He was playing the game and most people dont agree with survivors definition of tunneling

######### are you on about. Three time in row, killer either camped or stayed around the hook. Once unhooked killer went straight for me. He repeated it until i died. All while no gens were done and i am at rank 1 playing against rank 1-5. My definition of camping and tunneling is fine dont assume #########.

This happens more often than you think it does.

I am not going to waste my words on you, because you clearly dont listen. I hope you get gen rushed, cya-

There is no point of having such a mechanic in any game. We are talking GAMES here, not life support apparatuses. No matter why someone leaves, because he has network problems, real life issues getting in the way or just does not like your style of play.

There are plenty of other measures one could take like (but not limited to):

Award the other party fuil points as if they had escaped/been killed with max points -> no more arguments about pips or points not granted

Reduce their perks by one stage or two, reduce their BP by a significant amount -> they actually lose a lot of progress, way more than they would have gained finishing the game, creates an incentive to play the round to the end or have to play several rounds to get back to the status they were before

Banning someone from a game they paid money for is not justifyable at all, especially in a software that is so bug ridden that it regularly crashes and I have already had more than one 5 minute "ban" due to the inability of this publisher to create stable software.

Should be longer of a ban and less chances to come back from it. I play 50/50 killer survivor and the thing that takes more fun out of the game than tunneling or Mori or keys or gen rushing which is what most complain about is survivors dc when they get dropped once or killing themselves on the hook especially when the run no mither. If you can play out the game and not screw others over then why bother playing at all. Not all games will go your way but you don’t have to ruin other ppls games because you have a bad game especially on the first hook. Two games in a row today two dcs and the next two suicides from first hook.

unsure if this is sarcasm, sincerely hope it is.

I think they might even need to be increased. I still see survivors DC after being dropped for the first time or whatever. I've only had one legitimate bug happen mid game since this system was implemented, so while it's still a problem kind of, I disagree that random crashes are a reason for them to reduce the penalty or anything. If somebody truly doesn't disconnect all the time, a random crash that gives a small 5 minute penalty isn't the end of the world.

The people in this forum that are saying "if I get tunneled 3 games in a row" or "I'll just disconnect anyway if the game is unfun for me" are the exact types of survivors that bolster my point. People don't understand that if they decide to jump into a multiplayer game with other people online, that they're taking on an unspoken responsibility to make the game a fair match. Just like if you were to play a game of street basketball with some people, you don't just randomly say "okay I'm done" and leave your team whenever you feel like it. It's the same kinds of people that I imagine going over to a friend's house to play video games, and then getting mad and shutting off the console when they're getting beat. It's the a perfect example of entitlement and selfishness.

I will say I don't hate on people for having bad internet. I know not everybody can have access to great internet. I'm talking specifically about people who, it's obvious they intentionally disconnect. After their first down, DC within 1.5 seconds or whatever. I still see that stuff pretty frequently.

And I agree that you should be able to play the game if you paid money. Just like anybody else who paid money should be able to play it. I just don't think that just because somebody paid money to play, that means they get to ruin the experience for others. Intentionally. The same way if I went into a fancy restaurant that I paid to get into, I could expect to get kicked out or punished for ruining the experience for other restaurant-goers.

I do feel for you with internet problems, honestly. I just think that people thinking they're entitled to just quit whenever they want, just because they're not having fun, is a huge problem. And if the problem continues to exist, then obviously the system isn't harsh enough to keep those players that DC like that out of my games.

At the same time I can also imagine positive reinforcement working better possibly. I'm of the opinion that, to some people, even getting a complete ban isn't going to stop them from just getting the game again and purposefully trolling. So maybe it might be nice to have positive reinforcement, and reward the players that actually bother to stick out multiple games through to the end. Like maybe accruing a 1.25 or 1.5x BP multiplier for being on a streak of not quitting games. Those might be overwhelming/underwhelming numbers, but it's just a random idea off the top of my head. That way, people who DC randomly would finally get to stop complaining about their penalties and it wouldn't punish people with bad internet. And, the people who actually play the game are getting a reward they deserve that the trolls that just disconnect don't get to have.

Idc for him or whenever someones dc's. Because every single time someone does i can see why they would.

At first it was hell because some players were doing everything they could to get people to DC, but now it's just resulted in more suicides on hooks which is whatever. There's a bigger issue with entitlement that this game produces.
