Missing the DC penalty already

I'm pretty sure DC was taken down because hackers were triggering the penalty on killers/players they didnt like. There was also a glitch where people who completed a match would aslo get a 5 minute DC penatly. Although to be fair, it was unclear if this was indeed a glitch verses a hacker thing happening.

It should be coming back at some point, it just needed some security fixes.

Definitely miss it. Had someone rage quit today once they spawned in. I've faced them before and I know they like to rage quit.

As soon as the trial started and they knew it was Hawkins (no offering was brought) they quit. 3 gateaus were used and this person had an escape cake. Other survivor killed themselves immediately on hook so I needed to farm with the other 2 to get any points.

Bet it's mainly Killers whining about this. I highly doubt you'd be whining about teammates DCing, because majority are useless when playing Solo queue. At this point though, as long as I'm getting slugged/camped/farmed or it's obnoxious Legion I'll DC. I'll gladly take that depip than go against the most obnoxious killer in the game that people think is cool lmao.

The difference is that, like I argued before DC penalties were introduced, you might not be having fun but you are actively ruining other player’s fun in the game, which is directly against the EULA:

”While participating in this game, you also agree to comply with certain rules of conduct that govern your use of the game (“Rules of Conduct”). For example, you may not...

• Interfere with the ability of others to enjoy playing [Dead by Daylight]...

Your online conduct should be guided by common sense and respect for others who access and use the game” (Behaviour 6). Therefore, you are committing an EXTREMELY bannable act by disconnecting against anyone or with anyone you deem unworthy of your presence/patience, and it would be in the best interest of the community to have these types of people removed from the game (Mass DCers).

This ones my personal favorite

tbh I don't really care what it sounds like to you, you're just biased because the second someone has a different view from you you immediately call it childish and just think that because I don't like something I'm just supposed to play against and tolerate the frustration. This game shouldn't be frustrating because of a killer or killers addons.

No offense but playing for points is boring af when you have majority of your survivors and killers maxxed lol

I didn't know anything happened to the DC bans. That does explain the increase in DC's I've seen lately. They need to bring back the penalties. They even said it decreased DC's by 50% or more. It was obviously working. Why did they remove it?

I don’t care if you DC as long as ALL remaining players in a trial receive a reasonable BP bonus, as a killer you can have a good start and have 3 people disconnecting and receive almost nothing.

for survivors is even worst, not only you have other people throwing the game because of a tantrum, you also get nothing, and if it’s early game you probably finish with 2k BP

it’s already hard to find a match whit the current state of the matchmaking, let alone bad game where you get genrushed or your team slugged early

i like how survivors complain about the dc penalty and think they should be able to leave when the killer does anything they don't like.

It would be a different story if killers were as weak as survivors and left at the smell of a 4 man swf and constantly quit game after game after game.

Than I guess I'm a sucker for hording up so many of my killer add-ons

Killers are getting 4K in 90% of games, now without a DC penalty the stats will drop

This is sad to see, they had to add it in the first place because DCing had gotten out of hand and now they've removed it.

You’re actively denying points or pips because you don’t like that they won. Either everyone will start to be put on hooks, or someone has unbreakable and will restart the team. The only reason you should DC is if the killer is holding the game hostage by slugging and not picking anyone up.

Going out of your way to make sure everyone is laying on the ground and bleeding out? I would DC and report for that. Even if it isn’t technically ‘holding the game hostage’ in the dev’s standards, it’s ruining the experience for others as well as holding the game hostage. Survivors can’t do anything but crawl around until they bleed out.

Going out of your way to slug everyone and forced them to boringly wait until they bleed out every game is against the rules. Read my previous comment about the EULA rules if you don’t think so.

Killers who do stuff like that are also the ones that inflate the bad rep killers get.

I believe you’re either going out of your way to try and find something to get people mad about, or you’re being ignorant.

A killer that doesn’t hook, but slugs everyone AND LETS THEM BLEED OUT instead of hooking them is purposely making the game a horrible experience for survivors. They’re using the slugging mechanic in a way that it was not meant to be used, and there was a ban wave in the distant past when people got tired of the game and constantly did it every game. If you need even MORE context, imagine 4 survivors sitting on the ground and being forced to do nothing until they all bleed out and the game ends.

Abusing mechanics given to you to make other people miserable while playing the game WITH THE INTENT TO DO EXACTLY THAT is a violation.

I'm sure you also saw multiple DCs while the penalty existed too, proving how it doesnt do anything to help, right?

A casual game with 5 players. You getting butthurt and quitting because you dont like what's happening ruins it for 4 others. If you cany handle good AND BAD games, dont queue up. If you're only here to win every game and never have an obstacle, you dont want to play, you want a winning participation trophy.
