Feature 3.4.0 The upcomming Disconnection Penalties
Hello,
"Players who disconnect early from games will receive temporary matchmaking bans, with the duration escalating for repeat offenders."
A rly good decision and def. a right step in a right way. In my opinion make this change for late disconnecter too. ( only for ppl, if they put their internetcable off ). Ragequitter doesn´t need this penalty, because if they use the quitbutton they will get punished and they loose 3 pips and that´s ok at the momend. With the upcomming changes in the future for the new Rankingsystem: I hope this Penaltysystem would be get better and better. *thumbs up Devs*
Sry for my bad english grammatic
Greetings

I agree, the penalty should apply to anyone who disconnects at any point. It's possible that that is what they meant by "early", as in "leaving the game early", and just worded it badly. But if not, that's how it should operate. Any point before the match actually ends is too early to disconnect.

I just hope the feature works. On the PTB i tried testing it and couldn't get a penalty while intentionally going for one.
If its anything like the PTB the system will do nothing at all i hope they can fix it.

I have no problem punishing people who DC from games and intentionally ruin the game experience for their teammates. However, there are people out there, and I'm one of them, who constantly get kicked from games and then get an update rank error. This has been happening to me since the Stranger Things DLC with no fix since then. 7/10 games are completely unplayable. I lose my pips, any items I had and get zero bloodpoints. Even if I escape the trial, I get this error and it shows I DC'd in endgame chat. It's got so bad I just play killer now because playing survivor is like a toothache. And now, with this new implementation, not only will I lose everything, I will also get banned? This is also happening to many other people from what I see in the bug report forum. And that's just the people who are voicing their concern. How many people are affected that have no idea about this forum?
They need to rethink this and not hurt people who are being disconnected because of BHVR's broken system. @Peanits , can you confirm how they plan on dealing with this? I paid for a full game, but I only get half the experience. I have opened many MANY tickets about the issue, and nothing ever gets done.

And if killers or survivors ragequits or put his/her Internetcable off, other players must def. be better rewarded. A plus on bloodpoints or a plus for pips or with the upcomming rankingsystem, a plus for other stuff ! Siriously, It´s rly frustrating if ppl quit because, you get a depip or no bonus and this is really annoying at the momend. It doens´t matter if you play killer or survivor. Fakt is, something must be happend in the future because, it´s out of control at the momend and destroys the gameexperience for alot players in Dead by Daylight.

Just wait a minute if you want to DC without penalty 😂👍🏼

shame about you

Oh yes shame on me!
It’s okay for those 4 Killers to leave the lobby I am waiting in because their inspection of us didn’t pass.
Sorry I don’t want to play in some matches. It’s not a competitive game, nor will it ever be. Get over it.

BHVR's broken system ???? Siriously i understand what you mean but don´t show with your finger everytime to BHVR. Mabye you has a problem with your computer ? or fix your Internet ....if not better play another game...sry but if nobody can help what you can do ?....nothing

It was bugged on the ptb. Even leaving 5 seconds in several times wouldn't cause a penalty at least for me.
Live will probably be a lot more strict.
0 -
Guess we will find out. I’ll probably end up going AFK while playing another game to derank. They should make the game more fun, because red rank survivor makes me not want to play.
1 -
well, i hope on the Live version it would be runnning.

Survivors who are removed from the game should not be obligated to stay until the match ends.
0 -
Of course not. By "the end of the match" I was referring to the end of the match for that particular survivor - that is, when they either escape or are sacrificed. Apologies if that wasn't clear the first time.
0 -
That's good to hear. Leaving the game at any point should result in a penalty, because for some people deranking is a bless and can't be considered punishment.
I would also remove suicides on hook. It screws up the game for other players.
1 -
Would that even be worth the effort? Next update onward people only get reset to 5 everyone will be red ranked all the time soon enough.
Even if you did that it'd be a very slow process it would take days each time. It'd be tedious and only lead to hating the game even more.

Agreed. There's never a functional gameplay reason to kobe attempt 4 times on first hook as the first person down. You should gain struggle attempts through time in the trial to prevent people from soft quitting. Because this is what people are going to start doing.

I think with "early" they mean "before regular match end". You don't have to DC in the first minute to get the ban.

I legitimately deranked from red to yellow in a day without dcing or instadying once. It was horrifying and somewhat amazing.

I really hope this system doesn't detect lag outs would be bullshit

There's nothing wrong with my computer or internet. I run other games flawlessly and without problems. My computer is state of the art and made for gaming and my internet is more than capable of keeping up. I play many other online games and don't have disconnection issues. I paid to play this game, so yes, this problem lies with BHVR. And since so many other people are having the same issues, it lends credence to the fact that BHVR does need to sort something out on their end. I shouldn't be punished for problems that are caused by their game coding. NEXT!

remove suicide on the Hookz ? nah, if they do they will depip ( if they haven´t doing not much in the current match ). It has the same effect like the Quitbutton, that´s fine. Only ppl they put the internetcable off must be punished.

Does it know if people DC intentionally or by game/dedicated server errors? I haven't had troubles but some folks have been saying since the dedicated servers they get disconnected randomly.
0 -
Wait what if someone has to go irl? They can’t just leave the game running because they’ll depip either way???
0 -
So are servers launching tomorrow on console?
0 -
I really hope someone is willing to take one for the team and actually test it out for themselves and post results. For some reason I don't believe this is actually going to be anything, not sure why though.

Red rank survivor is 100x better than green or lower, Idk what you find so bad but I actually quite enjoy my games in the red ranks as survivor, I don't have to worry about gens not getting done or getting 1 hooked because no one goes for saves.
1 -
You only lose 1 pip for leaving the match.
0 -
If to stuff happens the game can go shove itself tbh. If something happens and you have to leave then a day long ban shouldn't affect you since you're not going back anytime soon
0 -
Survivors are just going to suicide on hooks now lol. Although, not much killers can do. They'll have to accept defeat.
0 -
Time to start slugging as killer and hook rushing as survivor to prevent that :D
No giving up in my matches :D
0 -
I think that would be difficult though; what if you haven’t been hooked the entire game, and you and get off the hook as a last ditch attempt whilst your other teammate is downed/on struggle hook, and then don’t want to struggle/it lags? And on that same note, what if it lags when you’re on struggle hook and it kills you, like it’s known to do at times? What if no one comes to save you and you try and get off, go into struggle, and it lags? Just scenarios off the top of my head. Probably more... Things like that would make it tricky, and unfair if implemented.

ya if you die on a hook ( in the match you did nothing ), but if u use the quitbutton its 3 i think.
0 -
Nope, was change recently. You only lose 1.

here is a update from the patchnotes. Sound pretty good
"As of Thursday, December 5th, we will be testing a new feature on our Dedicated Server enabled platforms (Steam, Windows Store and Switch™). This feature is designed to penalize players that are disconnecting from matches.
Users who disconnect from matches will be prevented from joining a new match for a predetermined length of time, which increases after each instance of disconnection. Our objective with this feature is to discourage players from quitting games and will serve a double purpose of excluding users who are already in a negative mental state from re-entering matchmaking until they’ve had a chance to cool down.
The system will also apply if one or more players in a group has an active disconnect penalty, preventing the entire group from joining the matchmaking queue until the penalized members have either cleared their penalty or leave the group.
The incremental penalties will decay naturally over time, starting after the most recent matchmaking ban has completed."
