I have had to DC from the last 3 games in a row.
Now, this is to bring light to the fact that there are reasons where players are forced to DC, and that they need to be fixed before any penalty is implemented. This is just one scenario.
I just had a Ghostface (same guy, all 3 times) body block me in a spot. Fair enough, I assumed the first time he'd just stalk and hook me. Nope, he just tea bagged for about 5 minutes a piece.
Devs, your heads, remove them from your behinds. Think these things through.
Thanks! <3

Did you record it? If so, submit a ticket here:

It ain't the killers fault you kept sticking to corners like your parents put you there. Also if the game ended then what is the big deal? Did the survivors do gens and open the doors? Or did they do nothing?
3 -
Regardless of if they put themselves in that situation, the killer is holding them hostage and that isn’t ok.

It's still not okay and not OP's fault the GF was holding the game hostage and doing a bad thing

wish they removed corners you can get hostage blocked in I know some are for hiding purposes but still

How is he holding the game hostage if the other survivors are free to do gens? Holding the game hostage would be trapping all 4 survivors in basment or if two survivors not doing anything.

Body blocking someone till their forced to DC counts as holding the game hostage
5 -
still you shouldn't be able to do that to one guy it's unfair for the one person whos gotten trapped in a corner
2 -
It is holding the game hostage for the same reason mori spamming till bleedout is bannable, you’re preventing them from playing for a mass amount of time.
3 -
I would consider it more griefing than holding the game hostage as if the survivors complete gens the game will eventually end. Either way, still a bannable/warnable offensive I should think.
2 -
That's a bannable offense and sjouldnt affect DC punishments..this is long overdue

It's bannable. Ragequits are not. About 95% of the DCs i see are clearly observable ragequits. So yeah i love the DC penalties.

There is literally gens that place you in a gap the killer can block and being stealth killer makes it very easy to use these spots and block survivors in, especially if it's a killer that is continuing to do so, sounds like he's TRYING to make survivors DC.
2 -
Yeah I wasn't talking about you "mate". Also how do you know they are a victim? They have provided no proof of this ever happening. Also you don't know what was going through the killers head, maybe they got bored of the tedious same old same old and wanted to do something else and the "victim" got caught in the crossfire. You're like a parent, you jump to conclusions and don't even bother hearing the other side.

All 3 times it was stick in between a gen and the wall of a jungle gym. Wasn't a matter of "sticking to corners", chief. I was doing the objective. Now run along.

Yes, let's call me a liar. Maybe it was you. Who knows.
Either way, BHVR has the evidence of 2 of the occurrences (didn't capture the first) in a detailed ticket. So you can just take your cynicism elsewhere, bucko.

So the other survivors didn't do anything? Taking the game hostage usually means, iirc, that there is no other option but to dc. In this case however the other survivors should trigger EGC rather quickly.
0 -
It’d be classified as griefing which is still bannable.

They made a button for when this happens. And guess what, its not the "exit game" button. There is an actual report button 😯 Where you can report the killer for taking the game hostage or refusing to play in normal game play. Imagine that 😂
In ABSOLUTELY NO way did you "have had to DC". Also this isnt the worse thing a killer can do to you by far.
If you think that is a valid reason to DC, I cant wait for you to get hit with a 6hr penalty. Better yet, lets hope they introduce a 2 week one!
0 -
Imagine thinking you can report someone without being able to exit the game and get to said report button.
facepalm
I would like to congratulate you on being a grand specimen of human intelligence. OOF. Of course, I'm being sarcastic. Think before you spew that dribble you call words.
They all more or less tried to meme me out of it. Usually I'd be mad about useless survivors, but eh.
3 -
So how do you get to the report button without having to sit out the entire match?
Like the post says, he DCd 3 times, therefore he would have had to have sat out 3 entire matches, with almost 10 minute queue times, sounds really exciting to me in all honesty.

"Imagine thinking you can report someone without being able to exit the game and get to said report button.
facepalm"
All i can say to this is: "What?" ones your team finishes the gens, opens the gate and u die by endgame collapse u can report him just fine. so again "What?"

Yeah, no. It's still taking the game hostage. It probably was you with how apologetic you are towards a killer taking the game hostage. Literally, shame on you. It is completely unreasonable to think anyone should just have to sit there and be griefed like that, and not be able to leave of their own accord. In no way would I advocate that. This is one of the few times I would advocate a DC, fully and completely. Why would you stay and give him an end game sacrifice? Screw that.
Go away and let the rational thinkers talk. Thanks.

You are absolutely right. He was taking the game hostage which is a reportable offense.
You disconnecting is also a reportable offensive.
Did anyone ever teach you "2 wrongs dont make a right" ?
0 -
There's no reasoning with you. You're in the minority, and you are absolutely abhorrently incorrect and unreasonable. You're likely a griefing killer yourself trying to make excuses for your brethren, lol
I'd be willing to bet even the devs would side with me on this, as literally everyone here but you has. I'm done with you. You aren't worth the keystrokes. You contribute nothing productive. Take your 21 post joke account and post somewhere else. :)

Not completely true, dcing is bannable but it isn’t something you report since the dc system is automatic.
1 -
I'm a David main, unlike you however. I think about my team and while ghost face is taking me hostage. My team can progress. I never felt the need to disconnect because ill depip anyway and leave my team hanging.
But hey maybe thats just me 😄
1 -
See, you would be right - if it was a matter of being camped. No, this was griefed. Body blocked in a corner. That's where the disconnect in your shallow, and narrow irrational opinion is.
If I'm being camped on the hook, I stay. Sure. If I'm being griefed and my team aren't doing generators, I dip.
Now stop. There is no version of this where you win, or look like anything other than an apologist for griefing killers. shoo
0 -
So how is being camped by a revving billy or leather face any different from being bodyblocked. Aside from it taking a few minutes longer?
Also at NO point did I defend the killer. I said 2 wrongs dont make a right. Which is what your entire discussion is based on.

Seems like there would be no consequence to the meta if killers lost their collission with survivors after standing still for 1 minute
0 -
Sounds based tbh
0 -
Honestly it could be 20-30 seconds and it'd still be fine. The killer would have plenty of time to block for chainsaws, Borrow Time, etc. while preventing them from holding you hostage. They could apply it to survivors too, since they sometimes use bodyblocking to grief.
1 -
It's technically not taking the game hostage as the other survivors can do gens and start EGC, and as a result ending the match.
I'd hope it's considered some form of griefing though, as I see no reason to do it for that length of time other than to try to pointlessly annoy people. Not really gameplay that should be encouraged in any way if you ask me.
1 -
But it is the killers fault for being a toxic pos. I love how you just completely ignored that part but when it's a SURVIVOR being toxic, bring out the pitchforks.
0 -
Rather than complain on the forums about it. Take evidence and submit a ticket. Body blocking someone into the corner and holding them hostage for large amounts of time is reportable.
0 -

Camping is a strategy, but bodyblocking a survivor, for masses amounts of time, is considered griefing and if for some miracle that doesn't get the killer banned, then the killer has been targeting OP for multiple games with the intention of ruin his or her experience — that's also bannable. The killer violated multiple rules.
Camping: Fair, it's a strategy.
Soft Locking: Bannable, it's griefing.

I'm locking this here, way too much insulting going on in this thread.
