I was just kicked from a Ranked match (which we were going to win) and it banned me for 30 minutes. My ping spiked to 988, but then started dropping back down and once it was around like 200, I got kicked. I’m a bit pissed about this because I just wanted to get in one Ranked match tonight and this happens. Not sure if it’s a bug or what, but it definitely isn’t right.

I used to have the same ping spiking problem with Windows 10, whenever my ping went to 900 it was because windows was downloading a update in the background without any notification.

Hmm maybe that’s what happened. Still doesn’t explain why it kicked me though. This shouldn’t happen. It shouldn’t even be able to happen. I understand getting disconnected, but you should be able to come back to the match rather than getting a penalty and making your team lose. I was carrying my team when it happened too so it’s not like they lost their worst player
One thing I can think of other than it being a bug is that your update hogged all the bandwidth and game couldn’t connect to internet and kicked you. By the time you tried to reconnect your team would have surrendered leaving you with a penalty, do you still have that game in recent matches?

I actually tried to reconnect nearly instantly so idk. It kicked me back to the main menu, but didn’t give me the option to rejoin like it’s supposed to. The game is still in my recent matches though.
servers kick you if you have to much packetloss or something and when you get kicked there is no rejoin option

This is insane and definitely needs to be fixed. If the player is able to rejoin, then he/she should have the option.

No.
Sort your connection problems.

DB is the only game that gives me any sort of connectivity issues. It hasn’t always been like this either. Started happening after some changes in DB and now the game isn’t smooth both with connectivity and gameplay like it used to be. But that’s besides the point. It’s still absolutely insane that you would get kicked from a match and not be able to rejoin simply because you lost connection.
Other people are also experiencing similar problems with DB only. Red/yellow circles on the side of the screen are frequent and again, only for DB. Could be a server problem (which isn’t unlikely) and could be something on mine and others’ ends. Just odd how the game was once fine until different server changes and the split from Nexon. Playing with or against people with over 130-150 ping wasn’t a problem, but now it’s horrendous and extremely noticeable. Just an example of some issues.

Good example.
I ping between 30-120 for U.S. East/West servers (some west servers must be in Alaska or some shit) and it’s generally a stable ping, but I still get teleporting everywhere. Some days it’s worse than others, but still happens nonetheless.
Letting windows update while playing on ranked then asking to remove the lag ban is not a DB server problem. It’s origin is clientside, between the chair/keyboard interface.

Windows wasn’t updating, already checked. Again, it’s still wrong to permanently kick a player due to a lag spike. Shit happens, shouldn’t mean that both the player and the player’s team have to suffer.
There are people lagging their asses off with 200+ ping and never get kicked. A ping shooting up and then coming right back down doesn’t deserve a kick.

Lagwizards with 200 ms ping should use their own region on ranked or get kicked. The ban system is far too tolerable to give an interesting experience now in fact. For everyone.
Why someone would play a shooter with a ping of above 100 is above my comprehension. There is plenty of CCG that are turn based.

I personnaly can live with 8vs8 objective servers being crap. Gameplay wise and connection wise. But disconnection ban in ranked is still a good thing.

Tell SD to distribute more ranked servers, specifically more towards South America and Australia.
NA players can queue in NA, as much as Asian players can queue in Asia.

Hey mate. You’re in AUS, fine. You want to play Ranked DB at 2AM on your side of the world, fine. Go ask them yourself, grow your community, live long prosper.
What I want here is people with a decent connection to play with and against, so stay on topic.

Most of the time it’s not even their fault they have high pings, but the lack of servers/people playing in their region. Even if there was a kick for high pings, you still shouldn’t stay kicked just because your ping spiked. Plus with the way the servers are and have been in the past, it’s not unlikely to be a server-sided issue that causes ping/lag issues. Also, lots of people play shooters because they’re fun, but not everyone gets lucky with their internet or location. The U.S. for example has pretty slow internet compared to some other parts of the world. Plus, most locations in the U.S. only have a handful of options to choose from and of those, maybe only 2 worth choosing.
Also, ping used to not play such a big role in DB, but something changed. Not sure what happened, but sometime in maybe mid-late 2016 the servers got updated or something and now any ping over 100 is difficult to play with or against. It used to be pretty smooth regardless of your ping as long as it was stable- sadly, not the case anymore.
But that’s a bit off-topic. There’s still just no need for a kick+temporary ban simply for a ping spike or connection lost. It should allow the player to rejoin once their connection has smoothed out.
