Can you start punishing for dying on first hook?

I would be agree to remove that buttin except when using liberation of course..

Can’t allow that…that would increase the survivor winrate and show a more realistic killer killrate. It cannot be, sorry.

Killer stats are balanced with all these suicides…right ?

They should remove the 4%, its a stupid mechanic. The fact that a game can completely be swung due to complete RNG is absolutely ridiculous in this day and age. Remove 4%, rework luck mechanic, deliverance can stay because it isn't RNG based, so its fine.

sadly those ppl are in every game, it's not dbd exclusive.

Honestly, its a good mechanic.

I want to dodge games, where i would suffer anyway. Killer can dodge a lobby too.

Also if someone doesnt want to play, they just either run to the killer or do nothing all game. Which isnt better at all.

Tbh, I don't think there is even a good way to do this without nerfing or taking away the self unhook chances.

“Survive alone or together.” - DBD’s tagline 🤷‍♀️

These posts have no point. 80% of the users here all endorse game ruining experiences.

You can fix the problems and people will still give up at the drop of a hat, removing hook suicide will definitely have a larger impact than any of you think.

Lets be honest, you're the one gaslighting with that dogmatic response. And you know exactly why.

You won't be able to stop people from not wanting to play, killer or survivor. Trying to do so is not only asinine but unreasonable.

If anything needs to be punished it is people running luck builds and the persons who thought it was a good idea to make luck a stat in the game. It legit does one thing and it does it poorly at that.

Whenever I see someone running a luck build I know that is a teammate who is gonna kill themselves trying to get a kobe for the content.

I have no idea why, as I'm not gaslighting. Taking away the ability for a survivor to turn the game from a 4v1 to a 3v1 is a buff.

The only option for leaving the game manually should be via dc, which should be penalized for severely. Also, how are you ok with people killing themselves on hook? The game gives points to the Survivors / killer when a survivor DC's to help people from de-pipping. Survivors circumventing this hurts 4 players, while letting 1 leave the game scot-free.

I believe they will be able to do more good in the game then dead on hook. Even if they are trying to get the killers attention to get killed, they are at least a distraction while the other survivors do gens.

An AFK timer would work wonders. 3 birds over your head is an automatic DC. Other games such as Overwatch, Call of Duty, etc. have afk timers. If you don't move or interact, a countdown starts. Once the countdown expires, you are kicked from the game and penalized.

While I don't want to force people to stay in games, that's a pretty crappy attitude to have.

They've turned on DBD and went through the process to get into the game and by giving up they're actively ruining the game for others. If folks aren't willing to commit to playing a game out they should consider whether or not they should be playing the game at all. Perfect example happened to me last night, I play Skull Merchant and down a Feng and they dc the moment I pick them up. Didn't tunnel them, wasn't camping, didn't even attempt to hold gens, just play regular m1 killer chases. They threw their toys out of the pram and dc on their first down which hurt their team.

Why even play this game specifically if you can't handle playing a game out? To me it just seem like if you're just gonna give up on first hook or dc maybe you don't actually want to play dbd. People playing Knight, Artist, Spirit, Nurse, or Skull Merchant doesn't absolve them of blame for being bad players.

Let's remember to keep the discussion civil, please, and to keep the Forum Rules in mind when posting and commenting. Thank you.

majority of cases are entitlement but not all

People take games way too seriously here

Most of the 'problems' that people say this idea would cause are easily addressed:

1: There are times trying to escape is the best idea. Agreed, thus escape attempts are only not possible until X occurs (that could be one survivor dead, a certain amount of time has passed, or something as simple as the first survivor can't try and escape).

2: It would eliminate the luck mechanic/builds. Again, easy fix. If a single person increases luck, escapes are viable from the beginning of the game.

3: Won't allow survivors to communicate with their hands. No problem, still allow survivors to control their hands, but they can't actually complete the action.

I really don't disagree with the idea of players not having to play a game they don't want to, but if so why even have things like DC penalties? It's so strange that BHVR has an 'approved' way of disconnecting and a punished way of disconnecting.

With the upcoming idea of bots taking over for DCs, BHVR should just go one step further if they are intent on allowing people to skip out of the game - just give an option to exit under certain conditions and let a bot take over.

Nobody is forced to do anything

DBD is the exception NOT the rule.

You don't get penalized and forced to wait out a timer when you leave a game because of incompetent teammates or low-skilled opponents. Killers cried, like they do with everything else and that is why it is what it is.

BHVR made it so you can see us doing practically anything during a match. They've nerfed, gen repair speed, healing, decisive, dead hard how much more do they have to do before you all learn how to play?
