Bots are the best projectile dodgers. Try Trickster or or Nemesis and see how fast they matrix dodge it. Artist is a little weird though. The bot starts to bug when you aim a crow through a wall. But it’ll avoid the crow if it’s range for damaging hit. So it’s kind of a mixed bag

Yes. PLEASE. It is SO easy to grief survivors by slugging them out for 4 minutes, or forcing 3 gens with SM and refusing to kill the last 2 survivors. It's funny that things like locker saves were removed due to it being unfun and frustrating with little to no counterplay for the killer, yet Killers can do what I've just mentioned as much as they like. This is coming from a P47 Twins main, if I felt particularly inclined, I can easily bleedout all 4 survivors with the right build on (the new Forced Hesitation just makes it so much easier). Just give the survivors the option to leave an already lost match without being punished for it. It's kind of embarrassing that this is even still a problem.

One thing they should introduce if DC penalties stay is the ability to re-connect to the match within a certain time limit since not every DC is a deliberate one, often people just get a connection issue or maybe the game crashes but nuh uh, don't care, you get a DC penalty anyway. Had a friend get up to a 24 hour penalty just because DBD kept giving them the "Disconnected from host" error. EDIT: For those of you saying my friend should get a better internet, I am somewhat convinced DBD does not attempt to reconnect you to the game server even if you loose connection for just a split second unlike let's say Team Fortress 2 which gives you a 30 second timer to reconnect, only disconnecting you after said timer runs out. The reason I believe this is because I witnessed my friend get disconnected from a DBD match multiple times on a Discord stream but neither their stream or voice had any connection issues the entire time, both ran smooth. That and the fact that no other game did this to them at the time but DBD. For those of you saying it is a hardware issue too, well I have an RTX 4070 Ti, i5-13600KF and 32 gigs of RAM which I believe should be sufficent to run this game, that and a 200Mb/s connection via an ethernet cable and yet I too have been disconnected for seemingly no reason whatsoever a good few times whilst playing this game. TLDR: Your mileage may vary, the fact that this issue never plagued you does not mean it doesn't exist, a safety net would in my opinion be a welcome change as losing all your progress to a random DC and getting locked from matchmaking atop of it is very frustrating to deal with, especially if it happens repeatedly which is something I have witnessed myself. PS: All the credit for this comment to my beforementioned friend as they are the one who introduced me to this idea, you go bestie!

I’ve done a little experimenting and I’m almost positive that bots know exactly where totems are the moment they’re lit there and also know, at least to an extent, what perks killers have and act around it. They’ll never cleanse all five totems if I have Pentimento, for instance, and always seem to beeline for the ‘dangerous’ totems like devour hope Edit: One thing I forgot is that The Artist is basically helpless against them. I played with bots and a friend (he was artist and I was survivor) and the bots had *instantaneous* reaction time against the crows, would dodge them instantly and by exactly as much distance as was needed before getting back on a generator

The only problem with this point is that it’s completely self-serving from the survivor point of view. The only way you’re okay with this on both sides is if you presume that every killer player is okay with playing PVE. Another problem that’s often skipped over is how bots even if they’re better than a bad human player, are still predictable. Hell, right now in custom matches you can deter bots from doing generators or unhooking survivors simply by having your terror radius near those things. I think bots are a good but temporary fix and players like Scott or DbD Twitter over exaggerating their effectiveness miss the point.

I personally fully agree with basically everything you said in this video because of the experience of playing in the asia region. A big percentage of killers here always go for tunneling and camping or slugging due to path of least resistance. Survivors in solo queue are frequently subjected to griefers and players that just suicide on hook only being hooked once. Due to the tunneling and camping nature of killers within the asia region in general, alot of survivor players just end up just giving up or stay on to greif to make the other survivor players have an even more miserable than it already is with the 3v1 situation. Playing as the killer to do fun/meme builds runs you into a swf t-bagging bully squad 1 out of 5 games, and they will just be extremely toxic in chat in the endgame screen. And if you do run into solo q players to try and have a normal game the situation i mention above with survivor rinses and repeats itself. Reaching the endgame screen, people will call you out for tunneling and camping even though you aim to put every survivor on death hook for that match.

I actually think that your "crackpot" theory actually has some merit. Lets take a random killer, how about ghostface. I've recently hated going against ghostface predominantly because once i get one ghostie I just get more and more back to back and I don't want to be dealing with janky reveal mechanics game after game. If I could dc against my 5th ghostface while leaving a bot in my stead, not only would I feel better because now I know theres a computer who probably plays as well as me. But I can move onto the next game where I may or may not get another killer, relieving my ghostface burnout by a little bit.

As said above, this problem stems from the killers and core game designed rather than DC. By default, you should NEVER have any reason to disconnect.

The problem is, if others perceive the way Content Creators talk about "Weak D tier killers" as not being able to win, they won't play as them, meaning you'll get the 6 Weskers, or blight and nurse at high MMR because it's a self fulfilling prophecy. This is how "meta talk and talk of meta" works. Players don't want to feel like they are wasting their time, so they don't pick the "weak/loser characters". It's why you see survivors run Meta perks when they have access to them. No one wants to be weak. So as long as BHVR is retarded and fails to balance their game, you're getting six weskers or blights and nurse fiestas until the "weak characters" get buffed.

Enough, I believe, to say that the DC penalty should be removed entirely. You’re not winning big prizes. Mathieu Cote isn’t coming down to your basement with a check to recognize and reward your skills… it’s just a game. It’s not a great game. It’s not a good game. It’s an adequate game.

6:52 - Knight main as full disclosure. I think the views on killers like Knight and Skull Merchant has become too skewed since the meta shakeups started. The most unhealthy about these killers, is the community's reaction to them as a whole. I played a scrim match on OhTofu's channel back in mid-May, wanting to see if Knight could be more than just a PUB-stomper. I was excited and nervous, certain I would lose my first match and not move onto the next stage. When it was finally announced that the next match was a Knight, I could feel the collective groan from the community before the lobby had been assembled. The next 5 minutes was everyone complaining about how the match will be a snooze-fest and to just play ads over the game. First match was close, but in the end I closed out a win. The community's reaction? Everyone was hyped! The chatter had completely changed from "The Knight is such a bore" to "OMG I can't wait to see the next match!" It was a fantastic experience and I think a few people decided to pick up Knight that day. Was it because the killer was the "epitome of everything survivors hate"? Would Tofu been better off sparing everyone that match because it was Knight? The more celebration there is around DC'ing against Knight and Skull Merchant, the more harm it does to both the killer and those playing against them. If someone tells me Trapper is horrible and it's better to DC against them, and every game I play against Trapper everyone DC's, where do I get to form my own opinion? Is Trapper horrible, or has everyone been keeping the newcomers off the ladder?

Implementing a vote to kick system could help deal with the real problem of people just not wanting to play. Though it could be abused by groups of 3s. It would help prevent someone refusing to play or suicide on hook. Now depending on if they remove the dc penalty or the option to suicide on hook make the vote to kick not have a time penalty. Also could implement some safe guards so it’s less abusable. For example you can’t vote to kick in the first 3 minutes in a match unless someone is killing themselves on hook.

the game had no DC penalty for YEARS and the game was arguably less toxic back then. You're making a baseless claim with not only no evidence to support it, but evidence that easily disproves it. People already just give up on hook instead of DC'ing. All removing the penalty will do is actually make the bots worth having spent time developing. There is no good reason to DC and get replaced by a bot over giving up on hook. On one hand: You get no XP or BP for the time you did spend in the match helping, and you get a temp ban from matchmaking but you're replaced by a bot. On the other you keep all the XP and BP you earned from the game with no temp ban, but you don't get replaced by a bot. Only the most brainless wonder why people choose the latter... Your take is bad and you should feel bad.

It also in contrast around cause not dcs in general because like you said anyone can quit for any reason. Sometimes survivors tough out the game even though they’re not interested from the start but with a no dc penalty at any point during the match someone will quit which would just cause nerves to never to complete unless killers lose. A good example is from the nba 2k community it essentially has no dc penalty and games rarely ever go to completion because people quit and you just get a bot that just is there to fill up space. Dc penalties don’t eliminate the issue but they do keep it down a solution I thought of what if you had a forfeit option where if 2 survivors and the killer or 3+ survivors vote to quit a match it ends ( the reason why I say 2 + killer Incase the other 2 survivors want to play with bots)

I was going to make a list, but it is far shorter list to make of killers who survivor will play against: Trapper, Wraith, maybe Ghostface and Nemesis. Basically every other killer in the game will have at least one bot in the game. On the flip side, one person has a build the killer doesn't like, 2 gens pop before the first hook, the killer get body blocked while carrying, the killer gets looped for too long; DC. Basically preventing the other side from winning and not let them have a game to play. This is not even going into lose dodgers. If we do your idea of having only 3 free passes before the DC. Survivor will kill themselves on hook to avoid this and Killers will AFK; effectively solving nothing at all.

I always thought that a good change they can make is to make the 3v1 not so weak. As in maybe putting a repair speed penalty on survs when they are full (4 survs) and as they go down they get a speed buff on rapairs acordingly This way early dc wouldn't just ruin the game entirely, on a similar note this would serve as an incentive to not tunnel, as in you would want to get as many hooks before they get the buffs. Then people wouldn't just give up once a surv is killed Obviously this is just a basic idea and a lot of balancing would have to be done for it to work, such as in camping 1st hook would be easier if survs have the penalty cuz they are technically still 4, so maybe bring back the idea of having "gen parts" on the map to get rid of the penalty (which would also serve as a side objective in normal matches instead of just sitting on gens) or the better idea of just get rid of the possibility to camp that easy that early Just thought to share the idea, maybe someone has a similar one or an addition to it, on a better fantasy world maybe it would get to the devs or whatever

I'm all for removing DC penalties. If people don't wanna play in a match, they should be allowed to quit, ESPECIALLY if it won't screw their team over since they'll just be replaced by a bot that's putting in 10x more effort than they would of had they stayed. In fact, I think they should let you keep whatever BP you earned up until the point when you DC, so even the people who wanna keep their BP can just leave without killing themselves on hook. Plus it makes it when a random wifi shut out or crash at the end of a match won't just delete all the BP you earned.

An idea for how to sort out the difference between accidental/reasonable DCs vs toxic DCs could be lenient penalties for the first two or three disconnects followed by much harsher punishments as it escalates. DC one through three in any given day is a simple minute(s) timeout while number four would be a half hour timeout and five a whole twelve hours followed by a one match BP penalty OR a twenty four hour indication on the players tag in the pre-game lobby that they DC regularly. A further evolution could be a system to detect when a player DCs. If such a system detects that a players DCs coincide largely with being the first person downed 60% of the time (hypothetical) then a poor sport tag or hidden label would funnel them into lobbies with other matching players. Same would go for killers who DC after being stunned within the first two minutes of a game regularly and such. Keep such qualifiers simple and relatively easy to track as coding and nuance rarely work well together. No stats for "DCd after being flashlight stunned then tbagged by bully squad" or anything. Just a simple "quit early after stun/down/save/in chase". Plenty of people who could think of a better system probably but that's my two cents.

People DC for many reasons, not only for the choice of killer. They DC because of perks and/or add-ons they dislike, or because their teammates aren't being productive/are occupied with archives, or they DC because even if the killer is fun to go against, they went against them the last 5 times and so they're bored of that. Take Wesker for example, he's fun to play and go against, but he's suffering from success (=high pick rate) so much so that people DC anyway because they can't stand facing the same killer 5+ games in a row.

@@ghostie7808 thats exactly my point. when i talk about killers being unfun to play against, im including the busted add-ons that some use. i dont see too many perks in the game as a big issue (maybe 4 adrenalines but at that late in the game i doubt the killer would dc), but the fact that add-ons like tombstone piece still exists is crazy to me, even though michael isnt inherently as 'unfun' of a killer as knight or skull merchant. as for wesker, it isnt a problem of 'hes too fun' like many ppl say, but instead because he is fun when other recent killers just arent. when wesker was followed up with knight and skull merchant, no one wanted to play them bcuz of how boring and repetitive they were, so they stuck to wesker, making him even more popular. people disconnecting against wesker because they see him too often is essentially a problem entirely stemming from bad killer design, despite him being a well designed killer. as for the unproductive teammates, i think its quit a niche topic. right now most survivors do the generators at a rate which is acceptable to the point where people dont feel the need to disconnect. yes it can happen, and i dont like how bhvr incentivises unproductive actions like searching chests and cleansing totems, but its very rare for it to ruin the enjoyment of a game compared to someone picking a killer who is just miserable to face

I'm with you on your opinion, frankly. I want BHVR to get data on what killers people just *don't* want to go against by seeing who is DC'd against the most and fastest. Also it doesn't punish people who have internet hiccups as much but chronic game bailers will be hit with the timeout box. Anywho, I don't DC in matches, but I won't lie, there have definitely been cases where I was sorely tempted. Mostly during those days I'm going against five-million "obnoxious skill check build" doctors because it's just miserable. And, of course, people who just slug you for an hour (hard countered when do No Mither runs, eyo)

I feel that you can't really use data about DC's as it's not as black and white there are multiple reasons why people DC it would be impossible for them to deduce just from data. Even if everyone who DC'd just DC'd against killers they didn't like then what would that really do as let's take Wesker and skull merchant one a lot of people hate because of 3 gens and the other is oversaturation. To the data they both could be equally as bad so then they end up reworking them which could be good for SM but Wesker who generally is in a good state but just has been too fun would more likely hurt by it just for the sake of making him be seen less.

I've run into a LOT of spiteful killers who do the kind of petty shit you described completely unprovoked. I think either removing the DC penalty or severely reducing the penalty is far more preferable than removing the ability to punch your own ticket on hook. The main reason people hated DCing is because it effectively ruined the game for all remaining players and made it unwinnable for survivors, wasting everyone's time. That is no longer the case with bots.
@SeaKaned

my opinion (killer main) is let people dc as they want, they get a good teammate instead of the guy that doesn't want to play and from what we can see incentivising staying in an unfun match is horrendous. This comes on top of the fact that there are a lot of ways to keep people in a match against their will i.e long bleed out times and hook stages becoming more time consuming to go through. I would personally also shorten the bleed out timer to maybe 3 or 3.5 minutes just to keep that more in check as well and give killers a slight "buff". And there is no reason to even have a dc penalty when there are bots more competent than the player dcing would be, so if they wanna dc every match it shouldn't matter because they are already not playing the game they bought and thus can't do any harm.

No other multiplayer game allows people to DC or kill themselves (throw the match) to such an extent that DBD does.

The real solution is to start banning people for doing it.

I have an alternative suggestion. As someone that plays killer mainly, I recognize there are certain scenarios where I don't want to play out the match. Some games are just unwinnable. I have been wanting a forfeit button since 2018. Plenty of other games have this, including competitive shooters. Survivors can vote to forfeit and if the vote fails you either play it out or dc. On the other side, killers can forfeit after a certain amount of time has passed in a match. This keeps survivors from feeling like their time was wasted, etc. because they got to mostly play out a match while also giving the killer the freedom to throw in the towel when they feel beaten. On top of this, there should be minimal penalties for DCs until it becomes a pattern of behavior displayed over time. It shouldn't be a limit of 3 DCs per a day or something like that. It should more so be based on the amount of times a player ends up disconnecting over a period of time. Like if you dc from more than 20 percent of your games, then you catch a ban. Just thought I'd throw in my two cents as most people seem to be coming at this from a survivor perspective. Trust me, killers want to dc too. I have almost 4k hours in this game and I still regularly just want to go next sometimes.

Well done Scott, I completely agree with pretty much all of your points. I was confused when they first announced bots because of the dc penalty. I did not consider that they would remove the ability to kill yourself on hook, because that is just a bad option, someone will just go afk. If someone is spiteful enough to waste the maximum amount of your time, then they are spiteful enough to avoid a bot taking over.

In my opinion there shouldnt be any disconnect penalties. No matter if you have just a bad day, or you encountered multiple cheaters in one session, it isnt fun at all staring at the timer for multiple minutes. This would also massively reduce toxicity, because if someone really disconnects every match, theyre just ruining the game for themselves at this point, they could add a feature, that only matches dc happy players together, to suck the last joy out of their dbd experience.

I agree that a disconnection bot is preferable over a teammates giving up on hook. But if we allow free disconnections, we'll normalize that players can freely choose whatever they want to go against. It will be like dodging lobbies except worse because you still load into the match and then experience people "dodging" the match by leaving which is much worse imo. Back when disconnection penalties weren't a thing, people couldn't disconnect for free because servers counted how many times you disconnected and you could be banned if you disconnected more than some % of your matches. But without any sort of penalty people would disconnect freely, which could actually kill the game, no joke people might as well quit playing entirely if this goes too far.

The punishment needs to stay. Sure some survivors will kill themselves on hook, but the actual toxic survivors will continue to DC immediately when they don't like something because even giving the killer a hook is too much for them. Alternatively, remove the DC penalty entirely and start watching Killers DC any time they dislike the game too. No bot replacement for killer? Doesn't matter.
