Is bodyblocking someone during EGC, when the exit gates have been opened, a reportable offense?

    No, body blocking is not a reportable offence... unless the Killer is blocking you in a corner to prevent you from escaping or playing, than that's considered holding the game hostage.

    Otherwise no, body blocking at pallets, at an Exit Gate, or whatever, is not reportable.

    Here's the link to the Game Rules that states body blocking isn't a reportable offence: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/19450/game-rules-and-report-system#latest

    Well, I actually meant bodyblocking someone in a corner during EGC until the EGC timer expires. I have my doubts if that's considered taking the game hostage, because the timer is already up and the game is gonna end in two minutes.

    It's not a reportable offense. Because of the EGC timer, the player being body blocked does not have to disconnect to end the match; they'll just be sacrificed once the timer is up.

    It isn't, the closest thing to that is griefing on the game rules post.

    The reason it isn't holding the game hostage is because there is a definite end to the game due to EGC being active, if EGC wasn't active than that's a different story.

    Anyways, griefing is in the temporary ban category, which this does count as griefing if it was a teammate doing it. Not so sure on if The Killer doing it is bannable since the closest thing to The Killer doing that is holding the game hostage, but the game has a definite end so...

    But yes, if it was a fellow teammate doing it, than it's reportable. If you didn't file an in-game report than you can't follow up with a ticket, an in-game report is mandatory for a follow up support ticket... so if you didn't do one than you're outta luck.

    Sorry if I was not precise enough. Yeah, I meant to ask if it's an offense in case the killer is doing that, judging by what you both said it seems it isn't.

    Thanks.

    No problem, and right, it isn't unfortunately.

    Sorry.
