What about this?

Recommended Posts

Just right now on EU40 near Elektro powerplant (they are still there) a group of 2 guys with some decent gear aggroed some zombies. I hear the shots and I look at them from a distance. And then, bam! They disappear as well as the zombies they aggroed but no message of disconnecting players appeared. Oh well I didn't care. Kept playing and then guess what, the same guys appear again but once again being idiots they aggroed tons of zombies. Yup, they vanished again as well as the zombies. Maybe some major desync I thought? I went to check. As soon as I get there they are back but only one this time and the body of his teammate is by his side. I assume one of them died in the previous fight before being able to pussy out and his buddy is protecting his corpse (decent gear like I said before). At this time I am right next to him and ask using in-game voice via direct chat if he is ok. As soon as he hears me he disappears. I check the area and no one else is there and I proceed to move out and out of nowhere he is back in-game where he was and kills me.

What is this faggotry? Idiots quitting to lobby every time they see someone or get into a fight? Ridiculous. Anything we can do about them? After all I do not have their nicknames since I cannot see who they are unless they chat and a video recording wouldn't show their names either, only their locations and their doings.

As far as I know, most servers now don't show connect / disconnect messages.

Sometimes if a player times out you see " is loosing connection" but I think thats a bug.

In this particular server it did show people disconnecting, losing connection, connecting, dying, etc. And trust me, they were not disconnecting since no said messages appeared in the time frame that happened. They were definitively disconnecting to lobby then getting back in without leaving the server.

What happened to "body still existing 5 seconds after the player disconnects" mentionned in a previous patch?

It didn't work? Was it removed because it caused problems?

It has to stop some day ...

15sec disconnect timer will solve this with ease.

They did this

Esc Key > Abort > Join

Exactly.

Either it wasn't implemented or it isn't working properly.

It was removed because reasons I can't remember.
