DC idea
If any party dc - game ends regardless of useless bots and work done to make it "works"
Leading to big penalties 60min / day / week

Or they could make the bots not useless.

honestly we in 2024 idk why we cant just log back into the current game now with bots as place holders
make it like a 2-3 minute window and if they dont give them the timeout(ban)
this way the disconnectors will slow down in requeueing and having to wait that extra bit timer too

Few things I'd like to see.
Remove the lobby and do not display Survivors usernames until the post-game.
Remove 4% outside of luck offerings and perks.
Remove the DC penalty.
Deploy a endorsement systsm that is hidden from players. Personal rewards only

Why is a lobby too much information for killer, is knowing what items the survivors have too strong like being able to counterplay 4 toolboxes or 4 flashlights just breaks balance

An endorsement system will never work in this game.
Oh you play Knight? Endorsement level 0 for you!
You are a toxic as hell survivor? Your 3 teammates can still boost your endorsement.
You are actually good at the game? That's toxic. No endorsement.
Also why remove DC penalty? That would just make people more likely to leave. If anything it should be harsher.

Just have it be if someone DC's you can DC too without penalty

Removing the DC penalty as shown over and over that the game turns into a DC fest, even with bots the game becomes unplayable.
An Endorsement system is pointless, this community is too spiteful

Reading profiles.
Stream-sniping.
Prestige dodging.
Item dodging.
General lobby-shopping making it more difficult for a strained matchmaker to produce a decent match.

1) You won't know people have DC'd.
2) Most players have not been around long enough to remember the old system. It's a shiny new toy to them, that will fade.

Endorsement system that is hidden from players. Literally already thought of that. You get some BP modifiers, some Shards or Rift Fragments. Nobody can see your "level". It's just something nice to do for players who go out of their way to be cool.
Because they are going to leave regardless, might as well let them go and get a bot. Plus, you won't know if someone has DC'd in this system until the end of the match. The DC penalty is outdated and does more harm than good, burns out players faster and it's ineffective.

Don't really see how the endorsement system will make any impact though. No one will change how they play because you won't get any endorsements unless you basically farm. And again, toxic survivors can still get the rewards regardless because their teammates don't necessarily know they were being toxic to the killer. It just seems kind of pointless.
Disagree with the DC thing. If they are going to leave regardless, then they should still receive some punishment so they can't just go back and ruin more games. The bots do nothing and this would just lead to most games being bots because there is no harm in leaving. If someone is actually DCing so much that the penalty is becoming an issue, then they shouldn't be playing in the first place. They aren't going to be more burnt out because it sounds like they already are. If you don't want to play the game then you shouldn't play the game. Take a break and don't keep ruining the game for others.

Don't really see how it could harm anything.
Their punishment is no BP, no rift progress and no Shards.
Ruining other peoples games is subjective, of course. Survivors shouldn't be able to leave when someone is negatively impacting their game experience, but Killers are free to ruin everyone's time and vice versa.
Keep trying to force players to play a unfun game. Or you could be like that one guy and hardware ban anyone who DC's.

Yeah no one should ruin the game for anyone. Just because someone does doesn't mean it's okay for you to do it. If people only DCed because someone was negatively impacting their game then sure, but most DCs are for silly reasons such as "I don't like Xenomorph", "I was downed first", "You have Coup", "this map is not good for me". If people are negatively impacting your games that much that you actually experience the DC penalty regularly, then you shouldn't be playing anyway. Take a break at that point. It's better for your future teammates and better for your mental health.
No need to turn this into an us vs them or go to extremes like hardware bans.

Don't p100 a survivor if you don't like a p100 survivor
Lmao yeah 4 stacking items deserves to be hidden, id sure love to get surprise 4 commodious and bnps
General lobby shopping leads to an statistically likely increase in strength proportional to what it looks like the survivors have in lobby, 1 dodge is more likely for 4 strong looking survivors with 4 toolboxes or 4 medkits to be hit with a nurse or blight and good. Stronger loadouts and stronger survivors get on average matched with stronger killers

Could you cite any source on any of these claims? I haven't seen them release any information about their matchmaking system's algorithm, specifically regarding how it handles dodging.
I guess we should be honored you took the time to invent a bunch of bullshit. You COULD have just said "That's not a problem because I said so." like when you said "Don't p100 a survivor if you don't like a p100 survivor" so thank you

Endorsement system was implemented in deceit top 10 most "liked" players were lowkey girl streamers.
The system will totally not work while having that one guy who know that both sides should have a little bit of fun while playing a game that is meant to for customers ofc
Imagine playing lol sup or jungle with disabled chat and carrying 9/10 games I bet you at least 2/4 per game reports
Big hits will work perfectly stealing a car going into 24hrs lockout or losing finger is a huge differnece
Edit As for lobby doding - legacy p100 with ulocked steam -happens very rarely.
