What happens when you leave a game dead by daylight?

Answered by Randy McIntyre

When you leave a game in Dead by Daylight, there can be penalties imposed on you to discourage players from abandoning matches. The penalties are designed to maintain a fair and enjoyable gaming experience for all participants. If you frequently leave games, you may face increasing penalties in terms of minutes and even hours of restricted access to the game.

In some cases, like where I live, power outages can occur unexpectedly, causing disruptions in gameplay. Unfortunately, these situations are beyond our control and can result in penalties if it happens during a match. If the power goes out and you are unable to continue playing, it can be frustrating to receive a penalty for something that was completely out of your hands.

I personally have experienced this issue multiple times due to the unreliable power supply in my area. It’s incredibly frustrating to be penalized for circumstances beyond my control. Losing access to the game for 24 hours due to a power outage seems excessive and unfair.

It would be beneficial if the game developers could implement a system that distinguishes between intentional disconnects and unforeseen circumstances like power outages. This would prevent players from being penalized for situations that are out of their control.

Leaving a game in Dead by Daylight can result in penalties, such as restricted access to the game for a certain period of time. However, in cases where power outages or other unforeseen circumstances occur, it seems unfair to penalize players for events beyond their control. Game developers should consider implementing measures to differentiate between intentional disconnects and unavoidable situations to ensure a fair gaming experience for all players.
