    Gen. rush is usually a response to tunneling, and then tunneling responds to genrush, and then Gen rush responds to tunneling because that’s the only way to counter it. It’s a cycle

    THIS!

  • @Garboface said:

    Another thing, people tunnel or genrush because that is just what is being played right now. The game is squelching any points for the opposition. For that, I blame the community. I played 38 games as solo survivor yesterday. I escaped 3. One, because the killer just stood in the middle of the map pondering existence and the other two because the killer let us. It has been rough. Vecna, the most powerful killer to date, with all these spells, is ironically the one, true tunnel monster forespoken of in the necronomicon.

    SoloQ is hard.

  • So if people keep their games open, they can just continue to use the perk that is not supposed to be used?? Sounds kind of like an exploit to me.

  • Everything is working as intended.

    It's Tuesday, Steam maintenance. This actually isn't entirely uncommon with a lot of online games, albeit usually Steam ID isn't affected.

    It's Thursday.?

    This is an issue with Steam itself at the moment, as Mandy mentioned a bit ago:

    Steam issue for just DBD?

  • They say that "DC penalty is working as intended".

    People have been complaining about them with all the new crashes that have been happening since the update but they refuse to either disable DC penalties or even acknowledge that there is a problem.

    That's the thing, I never recall starting at a 5 minute penalty, I believe it was more as when I finally tabbed out of the trial I saw it was 5 minutes and I had lingered a for a few minutes more in the trial to witness my bots actions.

    Someone mentioned transparency on players penalty times which I whole heartedly agree. When leaving a match rather than just have "Are you sure you want to leave this match? Leaving the match counts as defeat." they could add "Leaving the match will cause you to have an X penalty." before you hit the finalized 'Leave Match' prompt.

    Transparency for a lot of things would be great.

    The bots are there to fill in for survivors rage quitting games or unwillingly disconnecting and not as your toy for ranked matches.

    If you want to see bots in action, play a custom game as killer with bot survivors.

    Ranked matches?? Didn’t know those were added in with this patch? Guess Dbd is an esport now with no option for non ranked.

    I'm not trying to argue or debate. If that's what you want to do... don't bother replying, because I'm not gonna answer beyond this. I was simply stating there is no new bots. They've had these bots in the game for awhile now, they just weren't tied to DCing b4. These are the same bots ppl have seen during the tutorial practice matches and the custom matches. Considering they locked 2 characters behind those practice matches now, it's pretty realistic to think ALOT of ppl have already seen them in action if no other reason than to unlock those 2 characters.

    Been playing since 2016 and today was my first experience with bots as well.

    Because crashes don't JUST occur due to issues with the server. If someone's connection at home is spotty, I would want them to take a minute to check their connection, reset their modem, ect. That's all I'm getting at.

    On the other hand, if the servers are on fire and that's why you DCed... Does it really matter that you can't installing run back into the train wreck? I'd be just doing something else for the night rather than beat my head against a DBD wall.

    When I say crash. I mean crash. Not lag out. Not disconnect from host/server. Not esc & leave match. A full on game crash sending you back to desktop/dashboard and sending a crash report. I don’t know when “my game crashed” turned into “oops I lagged out”.

    The game cant tell the difference between a crash and a disconnect. if it were to exclude crashes, people could just use the og method of pulling their internet connection to force crashes. It sucks but logistically there isnt really a way to differentiate.

    So when a crash report pops up, the game cannot tell if the game crashed?? Lol. I’m not talking about kicked out to end game screen or main. Full on crash.

  • @LordGlint said:

    Having SOME downtime after a crash/ragequit sounds like a good thing to me. Gives time to settle any issues on your end, whether that be time to take a breath and calm down or time to check your internet connection. If the time is over by the time you exit the match screen, it didn't really do anything at all did it?

    That being said, just like someone above me pointed out... there's no reason to "test the bots" by DCing. The bots themselves arnt new, just the usage of them in normal matches as opposed to custom matches is new.

    Why would you need downtime after a crash? Especially with the amount of reported bugs causing crashes with this update.

  • @Peanits said:

    So two things on that:

    1. DC penalties do not 'reset', they slowly decay over time. If your penalties were really long, it's possible they still haven't fully decayed when you came back.
    2. I'm not sure what you expected to happen.

    Why are people given penalties when the game bugs out and crashes? If the crash report pops up, you would think the game would be able to recognize the difference between an intentional disconnect and a crash.

  • I don't even understand why, especially now that they have bot replacements, that they have a DC penalty when the game is still in a state where it bugs out people's games to an unplayable state and causes crashes too often.

  • it has been 4 matches in a row of pento & plaything killers slugging and tunneling. It is what is it I guess. I just go on to the next match. You can do the same if you dont want to play with "friendly" killers.
