Explanation

I keep getting matchmaking penalties though I never disconnect from any games. The only time I could “disconnect” would be when the abandon feature comes up. But that’s not technically disconnecting and I’ve only done that a couple times. Even one match when I escaped and returned to lobby, I was**** with a matchmaking penalty.

Not exactly the same as this, but am tacking on here rather than starting a new bug post. Have barely played the game for the last couple of weeks. I jump on to play the event. Queue times are atrocious on survivor. One game goes fine and the second game the killer is bleeding me out because they want 4 moris. I can't really be bothered sticking around at that point and want to go next as I don't have long to play, so i DC.

I have a 15 minute penalty. What is this? I thought the whole DC penalty thing was changed a while back to accumulate and not build up in the same way. Not only that, but the last time I DCd was something like 2 weeks ago when I had to cut a session short.

Make it make sense
