One thing I’ll add, that bit about tickets being optional has been there for years.

Where’d this larp term come from? I know what it means, yet it’s gained popularity out of nowhere.
Is it another 4chan word?

Thank you sir!
Hope you’re doing okay!

Do you feel the current system is fair? Because I've never seen another PVP game hold on to a penalty indefinitely so that it can count down in real time (akin to a time out) and tell players to spend over an hour minimum playing through 20 rounds to even see their record go down. Especially for a game that is not ranked and doesn't have very stable solutions to issues like camping/tunneling/slugging. It seems more designed to cultivate frustration and fear, and maybe maintain the aforementioned data, than it is to improve the quality of the game.
Likewise, why would the heavy penalties toward DCs need to be implemented but the Surrender mechanic is fine? Is that data retained while DCs are not? I don't know if it's ever been specified before.
I’m not entirely sure if this is what you’re referring to, but it’s false that you have to keep the game running to make the penalty go down.
You do need to ‘activate’ the penalty by attempting to queue before it starts ticking down, tho.

I suspect it was supposed to be nerfed for its release, but they weren’t able to add it to the big patch in time.

I'd just leave too, that's my point. I see the bots either way, I just don't want to play with bots anymore.
I was using DC penalties as an example for the discussion. The abandon feature exists, why not extend it to those kinds of scenarios? You can keep the penalties, in fact go ahead and triple or quadruple the amount of time the disconnect penalty is for. But allow other survivors to choose whether or not they want to keep playing.
As for killer, its harder to say what the solution would be. Killers really can just effectively go AFK if they decide the match isn't going their way, as I mentioned in the main post. So the DC penalty kind of just prevents them from getting into another match immediately. Perhaps the killer abandon/disconnect conditions are fine how they are now.
But for survivor I think the enjoyment is too dependent on your teammates thanks to the asymmetrical nature of the game, and being able to abandon if someone you aren't queued with decides to ruin the fun and leave could alleviate a lot of frustration.
Thing is, if you're not enjoying the game, the best thing is to simply not play it.
Players need to realise they're addicted, and that they can break that addiction.

And I prefer to play my team based game with real people and not bots, it goes both ways. Don't know why I should be forced to play a heavily losing match to potentially an excruciating length just because an entitled teammate decided he'd rather go make a sandwich during his disconnect cooldown than to play the rest of the match out. I've had teammates DC numerous of times in a match that we were actually winning in, and manage to escape or get very close to it even with a single bot. Two bots though, the game is just over. There really might as well be an abandon option for that.
Also if I'm playing killer I'd honestly rather play against bots than players who are just giving up and refusing to play, but maybe that's just me. If you really don't like playing against bots and getting the free BP, then there's an abandon option currently active if the survivors are all bots.
But you realise that by removing DC penalties, you're going to be seeing even more bot teammates, right? You're just exarcebating the problem.
-
Idk about you, but I prefer playing my PvP game against actual Players, not bots.
-
I mean, it's to be expected.
Triggering the mori is faster, and once it's started you can sit back and the game will end.

@radiantHero23 said:
I know this sounds crazy to some, but could we get rid of the abandon feature altogether?
All it does is encourage quitter-mentality.
If you don't want to play the game, then please just quit before you hit the ready button.
Been saying this ever since it was introduced.
People use it as a 'get out early' card, when all it was intended for was combatting hostage situations.

Well said. In that case I request a pink bird that isn't a flamingo.
Hmm…
Well, there's some cockatoos, the roseate spoonbill made famous in certain circles by Dropout, a variety of finches…
But I'll go with this one; the pink robin (Petroica rodinogaster):
Exclusive to Tasmania and a (relatively) small area of mainland Australia. They're a part of Australian 'robins' which are only distantly related to the European robin, and not at all related to the American robin.

Everything related to him is unlockable through iridescent shards as far as i know. That seems more than fair.
The two regalia outfits are only available for cells as of yesterday.
I imagine they’ll become available for shards later down the line, though.

Nice in theory, but this’ll just lead to people spamming Support with tickets.
Like Aven said, it doesn’t solve the issue people have with reporting cheaters. It takes forever, requires you to have been recording already, and oftentimes barely does anything, cause of burner accounts.
A replay system and/or server-sided checks are much better at (partially) solving the cheating issue.

Unknown, because he was the first killer in years that actually unsettled me.

Thats why this was the one license i want that fits right here.
It would be a drastic shift from the Style of Don’t Starve to ‘realistic’ DbD
I haven’t really thought about the voices tbh. But i still want to see/hear it. Though having Instrument noises for grunts and screams would be also.. intruiging?
Gotta wait and see what the Sandbox modding will allow!
Oh I didn't even think of the artstyle.
They of course have to do Wilson's hair justice, or we riot!

Charlie as killer, and plenty of survivor options/legendary skins
I mean, you already know I'd love to see Charlie.
But a Don't Starve survivor would be rather weird, with their 'voices' and all.
I'm not sure I want to hear anything other than a trumpet come from Wilson's mouth.

Ok ill admit you got me with the rage bait. im a very stupid person lol.
but yeah i knew old DH but DS USED TO BE TWO? jesus. i wasnt around for this time so
According to the wiki, it never could be used twice.
What was deeply annoying was that while the Obsession could use it immediately, anybody who wasn't the Obsession didn't get to do the skillcheck until around a third of the bar was filled, meaning you could get hit by a surprise DS up to 3 times.

Its funny because only The Trapper was made available to play in the beta, but due to a bug you could still play as both Hillbilly or Wraith. Wasn't consistent and I forgot exactly how to do it, but im sure theres a few clips floatin around
Hah
Some things never change, huh

Although well before I started playing, I distinctly recall that there was a time where not even Wraith and Billy had been introduced yet.
Although the game did ship with those three.

As far as I know they only respawn if you reloaded with them. Normally broken hooks stay broken even then. It's a very nice trick with him :D
Afaik, broken hooks repair themselves after 30 seconds or so. It’s just that you typically won’t notice, cause you’ll be long gone by then.

Do you mean DLCs, or disconnects? If you mean DLCs, if they have linked a BHVR account, it should transfer.
If you mean disconnects, I have no idea.

You can also opt to pre-run.
That doesn't solve the issue.
You'll have to pre-run every time he uses OE, which kills any efficiency. Not to mention that if he has Ruin, he'll get free regression just for being in OE.

I think the question should be why he does get it.

Apparently it's been reverted now.
Still not a good look, tho.

Hm.
Not the best first impression, all things considered.

I kinda doubt it would affect his chances, tbh.
He probably said it so shut him up.

Engine updates, maybe?

Artist is already a turbozoner as she is. Her potential to put you in lose/lose scenarios would be even higher.

I think the dispute was over the second and third films specifically. They should be free to pull from the first film.

It being optional will happen if we ask for it, I just don't understand why y'all have to deny everyone else the chance to have stuff they enjoy.
I'm getting tired of the negativity of people on here, this has to be the best anniversary in the whole 10 years of playing this game, like freakin scooby doo, I'm so excited to meme with friends, and as a fan of diablo 2 I can't wait to have Mephisto.
Survivors need more to them, voice lines is definitely a step in the right direction to give them personality.Hence the toggle. Then both parties can be happy.

The Official kill rates demonstrate otherwise. Even most killer mains agree that low MMR killers dominate pub matches. Not that we should trust what killer main group think believes.
Does it? The official killrates cover all MMR levels. We're talking bottom MMR here, starting level. The official stats simply cannot be representative of that level of play, by simple virtue of sample size.
