Exodus302478 6 Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) My friends and I would love to test out the game for you guys, but it's impossible for us to try to interact with other people, because 2/3 times someone combat logs on us. I have a simple solution for this:When someone logs or turns their game off, their player model stays in the world for about 15 seconds or so, doing some kind of pose showing players that he is logging/combat logging. Share your ideas down below for Rocket to see!! (I know it's Alpha, but I wish this could be implemented as soon as possible for a pleasurable PvP experience.) It's a top priority. They have a solution already and it's almost done. Be patient. I was unaware of this, thank you for bringing it to my attention ZedsDeadBaby.

starthealmighty 597 Posted January 9, 2014 The system that they have on the Arma3 Breaking point mod works wondersits simple and not complicated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcoheinen@hotmail.com 5 Posted January 9, 2014 It sounds really simple and it has been suggested a lot of times. Yet it hasnt been implemented yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoWeMeetAgain 100 Posted January 9, 2014 yeah today I even had another newspawn combat log on me...first he didn't respond (we both had melee weapons), and when people don't respond they're never friendly so I made it my mission to chase him down before he got a weapon and came after me.Lost him in a city because I had to sidetrack to kill someone ELSE who attacked me, and when I found him again he logged, the biatch killed 3 hoppers today though, that was fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karmaterror 982 Posted January 9, 2014 Honestly....again? This is an issue that will only really effect your enjoyment of the final game. Right now, for the purposes of testing, there is no need to fix this. I have managed to go a while without saying it but....ALPHA! lol. For me this falls into being fixed towards the end, around the time they are playing with loot spawn rates, locations, and other balance related issues. I see it like this... Server performance...Add a feature...More server performance...Add a feature....More server performance....Remove a feature.....More server performance.... Waaaay down here somewhere.....balance loot and introduce combat logging and hopping features....More server performance ;) Basicaly if its ruining the game for you, wait a while....this early stage may not be for you. All that being said, if they do implement something soon, great! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exodus302478 6 Posted January 9, 2014 So i can die when im not even playing? you must be retarded cause this is the dumbest thing in the world.Have you played DayZ? Where are you going to log off, in the middle of a town? Do you know the chances of someone seeing you when you're logging off in a tree? I didn't say make the player glow bright pink.

vladiman 25 Posted January 9, 2014 So i can die when im not even playing? you must be retarded cause this is the dumbest thing in the world.It's called making sure the area you're logging off in is safe. Too many people log off in highly populated areas with complete safety, that needs to change. Go into the forest and log off in a bush, no one will find you before you log off unless they were stalking you. Imo, the log off timer should be around like 30-60 seconds, and any gun fire or combat in a certain radius around your character should extend that timer.

Crakka 44 Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) you people are just trying to ruin the game 1 cry at a time. I can predict it now that the end game will be god awful and unplayable thanks to you retards. Lets just make it so once you open your game you cant turn it off and robotic arms strap you into your chair until you die, thats pretty much what you guys want which is retarded. OMGOSH SOMEONE COMBAT LOGGED ON ME, I MUST GO CRY ABOUT IT ON THE FORUMS CAUSE I DIDNT GET THERE SWEET HOODIE Edited January 9, 2014 by Crakka 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) Right now, for the purposes of testing, there is no need to fix this. Rocket disagrees and he's working on it right now. It will be fixed in the next major patch. To quote him directly "most important to me for doing ASAP is implementing the server queuing system to solve combat-logging and loot farming." you people are just trying to ruin the game 1 cry at a time. I can predict it now that the end game will be god awful and unplayable thanks to you retards. Who are you even talking to? People who want to fix cheats? Those people are "ruining" the game, because they want to stop others from cheating? Is that really your argument?

Guest Posted January 9, 2014 Combat-Logging removes one of the core elements of the game - interaction. If players are scared to be in the same vicinity as another player then you can't really "test" the games dynamics. There's no point playing the game, even to test, if you're not willing to go up against someone who you won't definitely defeat in combat. Crakka, your post was just retarded.

Exodus302478 6 Posted January 9, 2014 Always they contradict themselves, like clockwork.I agree, it's alpha and I expected many things to be unpolished and unfinished, that's why I'm here. I'm simply saying that I refuse to interact with players if they can just disappear. The only thing I CAN do to players BEFORE they can disappear... is kill them, and that's not what my squad is about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To quote him directly "most important to me for doing ASAP is implementing the server queuing system to solve combat-logging and loot farming." Fair play...if thats what the D-man wants thats fine by me. I just feel the mentality of the testers is a little off at this stage. Everyone is too obsessed with there gear (that will probs get wiped anyway lol), or killing other players. People seem to just want to play as if its finished product lol. So far iv met 4 people, 1 tried to kill me....2 were egar to be on there way alone. But myself and this other lone wanderer met up to the north, and ended up spending maybe 3 hours just figuring things out together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karmaterror 982 Posted January 9, 2014 My friends and I were running through the forest and we got into a firefight with 2 people ambushing us. One of us got killed, and we started to return fire. We got to where they were, hiding behind some rocks, and there was nothing. Thats my point, they were playing as if its the full game and there gear is so precious that they have to log to a diffrent server. There is such a small amount of items ingame so far compared to the mod (well excluding the new cloths) Thats why its so easy to find every in-game item. There is no need for combat logging. If these players would just embrace the alpha, and realise that they can have full loot again in 30 mins(without hopping), I think we would see a lot more interaction. Anyways seems like Rocket is on top of this, so hopefully it will get resolved soon :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing you say is going to change that. So boo hoo, you won't be able to be a pussy and log out when you and your squad are about to get slaughtered anymore.
