Dc penalty need a big change for sure
I don't undertand why disconnecting from a game cause of internet , resolves in temporary ban of EVEN 30 minutes!! At least make the penalty gradually increase time to time, don't leave it at it's max for days. For this kind of bad design , people without a good connection can't enjoy your game. And we don't speak of people that have to play without a party member, but of people that can't play for 30 minutes! absurd if you think that disconnections are something that can occurs many times . I think there are thousands of better ways to fix this

From what I've seen the cooldown does increase gradually over time beginning at 5 minutes and continuing up. I don't know the exact gradual build there is but I do know that it shouldnt be a 30 minute ban right from the beginning
It does gradually increase from several minutes to 24 hrs. To get to that point you have to DC a lot. Game cant discern between a dc from rage or your internet.
Its either no DC penalty or all DC penalty.
You've seen what happens when theres no DC penalty? As Wesker there was uhh... 1-2 DCs every single game. No tunneling, no camping, no slugging. Imagine Spirit, Nurse, Blight...
With a DC penalty, people with shotty internet will have a stacking penalty, but theres always a DC penalty in online games, even for internet crashes. The latter is superior, even if it harms some people more than others.
"people without a good connection can't enjoy your game" Yep and that's how it should be, sorry if you connection is poor, don't play online games. Sorry but the reality is that if you don't have a decent connection you ruin the game for other people. Please just don't play. BHVR is far to liberal with ping as it is.
Gods yes. They should limit it to 250ms (and that's already too much)
yes please!
There's no way to discern "legit disconnections" with rage quits. If you are having constant internet issues building up a massive penalty, that's an issue you need to resolve yourself.
I would even say that the D/C penalty is often far too lenient as the first d/c is only a minute long and the timeout refresh occurs often enough that you can d/c once a day and not really feel any punishment for it.
