If you're playing Dead by Daylight and you get the "Connection Error" message, it means there are some communication issues between your game and the server. This can be caused by a number of things, like a poor internet connection, or an issue with the game's servers. If you're getting this error, try restarting your game and/or your router, and see if that fixes the issue. If not, there's not much you can do but wait for the servers to come back up, or try playing the game later.
