Login timeout suggestion: Only give penalty waiting time on manual logouts, not server disconnections

[Jacob31593 2]

Only make the penalty apply to people who click the logout  button, not people who get disconnected for whatever reason :(

Same for the 30 seconds of your character sitting after a logout :(

Cable unplug would be used. Same as ALT+F4.

Being a normal user I don't mind having to wait a bit if it happens.

No. Won't work. People will always find workarounds so they don't click the abort-button, such as forceexiting the game, so they can bypass the anticombatlog.

Like the others said. There's just no way to make a distinction, so just roll with it and grab a coffee, chow, or a smoke while you wait to relog. Happen to me plenty already, is a fair trade to mitigate loggers and hoppers.

That completely 100% defeats the purpose.

No. I disagree. I am right and you are wrong. And you also should be ashamed of yourself. And your mother eats snails and frog legs.

I eat snail's and frog legs, where can I meet his mother?

Well, I know a fine restaurant by the Seine. By fine I mean completely decadent and barbaric, where people drink traditionally made wine and eat baguettes with salt butter for breakfast.

hahaha, funny. (being French myself) Lots of people in Dayz are also "decadent and barbaric"

 

back to the topic at hand: I think people will  go to great risk just to bypass any loophole that prevents their character from dying. People want the easy way out! However, they need to be punished because they are breaking a core mechanic of the game. If everyone else must take more time to log on or off to a server, so be it. I'm willing to take longer because it will lessen the amount of combat loggers, server hoppers, and ghosters!

Like a buddy said... "can't remember all the ones I killed, but i remember all the retards I would've brought down if they didn't log..."

Plus the worst scum is the ghosters. Seriously, can't win a fight proper ? Don't get into the fights.
