Seen a survivor who DCed show up in chat? I experienced this today, and don't know if it's a normal occurrence.

    Probably not as why would you DC just to spectate to the end of the match. Quite pointless.

    Yeah it's not uncommon for someone to ragequit by using the "leave game" button. This only returns them to the lobby where they can choose to spectate or stick around till the game is over and join in the chat if they want.

    But how is this even possible is the question.

    To me, this raises the question of IF survivors are actually DCing...I mean, yes, many are, but doesn't this mean it's possible that the problem is from the game side, not always the players.

    Dude acting like he didn't even know he DCed.

    Thank you...I've never DCed, I had no idea that was even an option.

    Leave game, main menu and a "spectate" option appears? This is why I asked here...my initial thought was obviously way off. Thank you for the heads up.
