As irritating as it can be, the answer is no.
It could be argued that they were looking for the hatch, for example (depending on gens left).
Even though they're hiding, you still have the ability to attack them, if you find them of course.
It maybe be an idea, after perhaps 10 mins of lack of gen activity, to have an automatic Whispers come in to play or something. But I bet that wouldn't go down well in the survivor camp.
-
I've been working through the remainder of my Tome challenges which are survivor/both challenges. I am only using survivor and besides the wait times, the whole game experience is much more relaxed.
I play both but when you have a survivor game you can clearly see how hard it is playing as killer, when taking in to account match-making and balancing.
-
I am not a member of the sites, but I had a look on Twitter and Reddit and plenty are complaining about sudden lengthy bans are simply one dc, often due to internet outage. There must be something buggy with the system.

NOED and Moris get nerfed.

Except two DCs wont get you to 4 hours. Either you, or they, are lying. 🤷♀️
Oh look another one!
Nothing to do with a possible bug with this efficient game.
Yeah ok, we're all big fibbers. Nothing to see here. Next.
-
You'll get the usual 'Ok bye then'/''see you next week'/go play CIV' comedians...
But I'm one of the people who understand.
This game is utterly screwed up in just about every respect.
Whether it be match-making, balancing, queue times, bugs, exploits, connection, the community...it's all overly abhorrent.
The bottom line:
The game is not fun.

I've played thousands of games and DC'd only when the killer is too laggy to play against or there is a game halting bug. I've also DC'd when the game crashes, which it's done in the past on certain versions and on certain driver combinations, and will certainly come up again. Neither are in my control yet because they can't come up with a better way to counter DC's such as bloodpoint awards, game mechanics being changed etc., I have to pay for the toxic immature kids they are catering to more and more??
For BHVR to presume their game is anywhere near a polished enough product to punish people in situations that are completely out of one's control is arrogant and a real slap in the face of their customers.
It says A LOT about the people that run this company.
Agreed

log you can cap?
As far as I know you can't get more than 30 minutes. I would imagine constantly DCing after that might lead to a several week ban and then a permanent one. Its either a bug or they are not telling the truth.
It's really odd.
I understand I am going to get the standard DBD loudmouth saying I'm lying, that the person must of been DC several times and that the ban is justified. That's standard here. But unfortunately this has happened.
He's definitely not a quitter. As I said, he doesn't quit as he wants BP and fears getting banned.
The other day the downstairs electricity went off and he got a very small ban, around 40 seconds.
Then this evening a match got all laggy, then the game froze but he could hear the sound fx. Then his game ended. And he had a 4 hour ban. It's gotta be a bug.
I'm in the same house.
I will have to check.

4 hours for 2 dcs?
Yes. He wasn't happy. He enjoys the game but is now apprehensive to play because of the unjustified ban nonsense.

@ASurvkillivorer said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1114257#Comment_1114257
how would you get banned for 4 hours in 2 dcs? when the max is 30 minutes? If that happened he really should've screenshotted that so it can be fixed.
Is there any time of DC log I can cap? He's on PC.

Dude I wouldnt even be surprised there are so msny bugs and broken things in this game.
Exactly.
The whole thing is over the place.
The person said the game kept lagging, then a message appeared saying there was a known error, then it said he had escaped with the host disconnected, and then back to the main menu and had a 4 hour ban.

thats a complete lie, who tf do you think will believe 1 DC equals a 4hour ban? i have had unkown error, errors, powercuts and i can still play and after my 3rd powercut my ban was at 15mins so... but power has been fixed since and oh look, no DC`s since and no its all reset, funny how not quitting games does that. and you complain about the ranks yet half of those red ranks should be rank 10 anyway, god help you if you actually versed red ranks players, if they still play the game. hell i never see them.
"That's a complete lie."
Firstly it was 2 DCs.
Secondly this person does not purposely DC during games for fear of being banned. Imagine that.
And lastly: I don't care what you or others believe.
-
I believe people who DC as a rage quit should be punished. But this new DC Ban process is not always fair:
A person I know had two disconnections: one due to the house electricity outage and then one from a 'known error' which popped up on screen.
For this = 4 hour ban.
He's so cheesed off he's considering playing other games.
I'm with him...but due to the horrendous match-making.
I'm a level 12 killer going against levels 1-2 and getting slaughtered. Absolutely no fun.
-
Hopefully match-making improves soon.
If not, I'm done with this game. It's a bad joke at the moment.
Think I'm getting sick of games in general actually.
-
Clown.
Have been trying out some fresh perk loadouts that I've never used before. The Tome challenges can encourage this.
Usually get good results with the big lad.

Hope you all had fun.

Yeah it's a tough time to be a DBD fan.
Also: WHAAAAAAAT?!?!?! 😂
I'm always swearing to myself playing this.
-
😂
Again, from the original post:
"I'm in no way saying "THE LAST SURVIVOR MUST NOT EXIT VIA THE GATE UNTIL I'VE CLOSED THE HATCH!". It's just sad to know that some players will do anything and everything to antagonize others. It's just so pathetic."
It was an observation of confirmed behaviour from some survivor players.
Ta ta.

Trust me I'm a killer man too, it has less to do with what they're actually doing and to know that there are people out there who just want to ruin your day. It makes playing the game frustrating and in the end makes me want to just turn it off. As a community I think that's a problem, and one that needs to be addressed I'm not sure how but the more killers means some more games and maybe employing some simple sportsmanship would help the total health of the game.
I feel that match-making along with a mean-spirited player majority are spoiling the overall game experience.
Playing games should be fun. It shouldn't be about making the experience miserable for other players. But sadly, that is fun for some.
People will be turned away by these sort of antics.
I just can't get my head around purposefully antagonizing others whilst playing online games. But that's just me.

no he's upset about the mentality behind it, the survivor sits in the exit gate trying to get a tea bag, and then locks the killer for being unable to find hatch with the extra time that the survivor decided to take. it's less to do with survivors sitting in the exit gates to give more time and more to do with the mentality behind denying a hatch just to piss someone off. It's the intent not the action.

most of the time they won't let you ahead them out, and you're just walking over to them to get tea bagged at

There is an achievement for hatch closing.
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1095491#Comment_1095491
I believe the OP's frustration was from the survivors attitude more then the action.
Bingo 👌

@ClickyClicky said:
Why would they do that? Survivors get “pressure” points for you closing the hatch too.
They likely waiting, realised you weren’t coming and left.
Why? Because they're absolutely beastly.
-
@SnakeSound222 said:
I find it funny when that happens. It means you pissed them off enough to where they’ll do anything to deny you points.
Exactly. Obviously it would be nice to have those extra BP, but at least we didn't give them the satisfaction of watching them teabag the night away.
-
😂
A quick clarification.
Here is an excerpt from my original post:
"I'm in no way saying "THE LAST SURVIVOR MUST NOT EXIT VIA THE GATE UNTIL I'VE CLOSED THE HATCH!". It's just sad to know that some players will do anything and everything to antagonize others. It's just so pathetic."
It's all there.
But if anyone wants to say I said this and I'm this or being that, that's fine.
I think I'm just getting tired of the constant 'toxic' (that buzz word...) behaviour associated with this game. But it's no biggie.

It sounds exactly like you're having a fit over a computer game.
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/1095598#Comment_1095598
It's a genuine question. You have the ability to avoid the situation entirely, then proceed to complain about it occurring after you let it happen. Makes no sense.
Nope. Not at all.
-
@Carpemortum said:
You're mad that you cant close the hatch FOR POINTS?? And mad at survivors for leaving instead of letting you close it? Seriously?
Jesus christ the entitlement.
Yes. That's it exactly.

Once again, I go back to my initial response. "Why do you care exactly?"
Ok cool.
-
I'm not having a fit over a computer game, they're not that important to me. Just things to waste time.
I'm just remaking that it's now customary for this game to bring out simply the worst kind of players.
It's like on Friday 13th when we had those morons exploit a glitch and get on top of the house, or gang up on Jason and all dance about. More 'megaLOLz!'.
I just find it disheartening that this game is being spoilt. But I've gone on about this too much.
It's happening, move on etc.

@AsePlayer said:

You also get extra points for just hitting the survivor and forcing them out. You are causing your own problem here.
I've had one or two wait at the gate for a complimentary hit today. A lot of them leg it out when you get within swigging range. More 'mega lolz' no doubt.
But they don't have to wait. Their purpose is to run out the gate. It's the confirmed silliness that I find curious.

Nah, you're just reading into it too much, you could have closed hatch at any point, them leaving as soon as possible would guarantee you don't get hatch closure points, not waiting in the exit gate for 20 - 30 seconds and then leaving.
You're just making up an issue so you can have yet another thing to complain about survivors for.
Oh ok I must of thought up those post-game chat comments too.
-
@[Deleted User] said:
Dude, you are rreeeallllyyyy reaching with this complaint and looking way too much into it.
They probably did want to teabag you at the gate and then leave, but I doubt they were even thinking of hatch points at all xD Who knows maybe they were just going to give you a free hit for some points instead.
I think you need to get out of your own head a bit, it sounds like you are making things harder on yourself emotionally, by assuming everything is just being done out of spite- a lot of it isn't.
I would understand this but I've had post game chat where they have gloated about running out so the killer can't close the hatch.
I wouldn't mind the points, but it's not my main issue. It's just a shame that you can't even have a game as good non-camp, no NOED, no franklins killer and still have some plebs do everything to attempt to wind you up.
I know of people who go on DBD with the sole purpose to make the killer disconnect. It's just sad.
Sad behaviour and just sad that's its making for a bad gaming experience.
I had some survivor games today and I did get facecamped on my first hook twice, which was highly irritating. But then I played some killer games...what a ruddy carry on. Totally different animal. I keep coming back to this game but crikey I'm getting cheesed off.
-
@Seanzu said:
Wait... so now killers are complaining that survivors are leaving EGC too quickly?
you guys have come full circle, congratulations!
I had a Myers down me in the exit gate, pick me up, and realise he couldn't get me to a hook so he dropped, my team mates had to leave and the hatch opened up next to me, but he slammed it shut and watched me crawl out the exit gate, both sides do things to spite each other from points, I however think this is just you being paranoid, you could have closed the hatch at any second.
What more likely happened is the survivor got bored of waiting to tbag you, and left, not even considering the hatch.
No it's not a complaint about survivors leaving too early. As I mentioned in the original post.
It's the fact some are doing this purposefully in order to irritate the killer. The post match comments back this up.
But would/should I really expect anything less from this community?
-
@AsePlayer said:
Why do you care exactly?
Well I wouldn't mind those extra points. Sorry if that's difficult to understand.
-
Possible perk idea?...but obviously this would cause issues with the final 3 available gens...if you hook a survivor near one gen...the other two would be temporarily locked and the killer would be free to camp the hook without pressure.
-
If you use McDonalds internet, you should get a free Grimace skin for Clown.
-
The new killer will be The Match-Maker...
-
I chose Dead Hard but I forgot how much I like WGLF.
-
1. Bloodpoints
2. Good possibility it could reveal your next target.
It also encourages the killer not to camp, which makes the game more fun for all.

Oh god no, Just imagine how utterly broken this would be in Macmillan state or in the god window of the shack.
I was about to mention the Macmillan window. That's a pain in the buttocks.

I agree.
It's far too windy. The tent would surely blow away.
-
I had a red rank 2 Billy. He actually spared me the hatch too. Good egg.

Ghost Face
-
Oni is a pain in the posterior.
You're running around injured and he just need to follow the trail of blood orbs. It's a right cacker.
I can't quite get the hang of his running club attack, but I have been absolutely destroyed by other players.
-
I like him.
He can saw through pallets, multi-down and has good base perks.
He's obviously the most dangerous killer for close hook security (camping 😂) and basement interactions (deep camping😂).
But I started using a new set of perks with him to combat the match-making debacle, and I'm having respectable results.
Used Corrupt Intervention to slow down the early gen-poppage.
Started using Thrilling Tremors to also ease gen-rush fever.
Had Discordance to spot those troublesome '2/3 on a gen' superpoppers.
And finished off with BBQ&C to find those muppets and soak up the bloodpoints.
Bubba is good.
-
Corrupt Intervention will help give you a early boost.
Thrilling Tremors helps limit access to gens.
Surveillance is good for keeping track of gen progress.
Pop Goes The Weasel increases gen damage.
These perks will help slow the game down.
Been having some pretty solid matches with Leatherface using Corrupt, Tremors, Discordance and BBQ&C.
-
Yeah I have similar concerns.
I like this game and love horror, but Dead by Daylight has numerous flaws. Match-making, map size, overall balance: it's serious.
I just need to discipline myself on the amount of time I spend on it. I'm just grinding through challenges in order to get free cosmetics. I rarely stop and think "Am I actually having fun?". More often than not I am just driving towards those challenge targets in order to get more unlockables.
But I've moaning on here too much previously.
