Penalty for Dc'ing before the match loads
You should be able to keep your offerings or add-on when that happens.
Especially since as killer you don't even pip when that happens you merely safety pip with almost no gain in BP.
Please if you can, look into this.

It could be a crash, they're all on the same shared internet ie college dorm there's lots of reasons for it and are you for punishing all the killers that do the same?

I think OP meant stop punishing killers if all player DC (by letting them keep add-ons), not add punishment to DCing player.powerbats said:@Gardenia said:

Yes exactly
Ok that makes much more sense then and yes that's been asked for both sides but how do you determine a crash versus actually rage quitting?
I've had killer do it usually they don't like an offering especially if it's a map offering and say a Doctor that put Gideons in and a survivor ut a different one in.

This would be possible with dedicated servers. @not_Queen do you know if this is planned after introducing dedicated servers?0

There should be a penalty for DCing. Completely ridiculous that we still dont have one

A lot of times a DC in the loading screen is because of lag, which we shouldn't punish. Not their fault. DCing at start of match is a whole nother thing.0

I DC during a loading screen if i see the ping goes from green to red because i know that ping isn’t stabled .0

Well there's that but I've seen it where it stays high until someone teh killer obviously doesn't like leaves then it magically goes back to normal.

Was explained a loooong time ago on a dev stream, that the ping spikes are usually the killer checking the survivors profiles.
Please don´t ask which one. I´m done with searching dev streams for a one liner.0 -

I also already acknowledged that's what happens as well but let's not pretend that killers are angels here in any way shape or form. Once the dedicated servers come up there won't be anymore of that nonsense going on.

Never claimed they are. But i´m tired of survivors calling every killer a lag switcher, when they only had a lag spike.
I´ve been a survivor in those matches. No lag on my side. Survivors still acused the killer.0 -

If people were actually told what's lag switching and what's not they actually feel better and learn something instead of feeling their getting trolled by killer mains.

They are being dismissed, because people call everything a lag switch:
Survivor missed the DS skill check? Lag switcher!
Killer seems to go faster than normal while carrying someone? Lag switcher!
Survivor was downed after jumping through the window? Lag switcher!Nothing of this is a lag switcher.
But the next things are real lag switches that happend:
No progress bar progress for more than 10 seconds while holding m1.
Can´t see the killer, next second you are downed or already on the shoulder of the killer.
Being unable to unhook someone, no matter how long you hold m1.0 -

Nope actually you're wrong again with your little snarky remark on PS4 if they pull the plug you lose it all even the bloodpoint progress during the match I've lost countless amounts of items because of that and @Vietfox can vouch for thatMaster said:@OrionsFury4789 said:

Dedicated servers wouldnt change this at all. Lag can happen regardless of where you arr trying to connect.DwightsLifeMatters said:This would be possible with dedicated servers. @not_Queen do you know if this is planned after introducing dedicated servers?

That happens to me occasionally. I had one occasion when I was unlocking an Exit Gate and I saw Leatherface chasing me... He kept on running straight past me but then all of a sudden I was downed and left to bleed out. My team were still good and revived me though, so I can’t really complain.Tsulan said:@powerbats said:

Sometimes it could just be the survivors’ connections. I am knowledgeable of mine being terrible but not by choice, due to living on a newly built estate where Fibre connections haven’t been integrated yet. So if I get into a game with a killer whose ping is bad I will know, especially when my ping is above 300. But otherwise it sticks to 80+. If I could move so easily I would and would instantly get a fibre connection as I know it is equally as annoying for killers and survivors to have a laggy player (especially when someone’s connection completely cuts off whilst healing you, you are stuck in place until the game recognises the disconnect.

How do you check ping if you are on the loading screen? :P
He simply disconnects during the loading screen to screw his team, instead of dodging in the lobby, where he wouldn´t harm anyone.

I know. Why do you think I stay away from there? Even at mid ranks, the stale meta is ubiquitous, but at least it's not 99% of every loadout.

There should be no item/add on loss when DC happens during loadin screen. Can't tell you how many killer DC's have killed keys or purple items. There should also be no depip for loadin DC. It sucks when you're one pip away from rank 1, and then killers keep DCing.
