I get it, some people can’t handle it when things get rough, team mates die, and the odds are looking bad. You want to quit because you can’t handle that? Fine. Quit away. BUT USE THE DAMN IN GAME LEAVE MISSION. I’ve had a number of games where I’m the last standing, clutching it out and it’s nothing but bots and no in game messages about so and so leaving the strike team. This is because you raged hard and quit the game in frustration. Used Alt-F4 or maybe you ripped the console out of the wall. I dunno. But it means no one can else can join the game for quite some time because Darktide is keeping your spot in case it was a legitimate DC. This means bots for 5 minutes or whatever the timeout is. Bots suck. You know this. And more than likely the mission will drop off the map and it’s bots forever.
Just stop it. Own your fear and leave the mission and let someone else who enjoys hot dropping knee deep in death, maulers, and 5 bombers lighting it on fire join the game.
I like the option for Alt+F4 to quit and rejoin. I’ve had to use this before when I get stuck in map geometry. There’s probably a better way to handle this issue though, like allowing a player to suicide so they can respawn if they get stuck somewhere.
you could still have the option via killing the process manually. ragequitters tend to not do that so it’d be fine to leave it that way. or just an actual unstuck option of course but that might be a bit complicated for the devs left on this
