So the patch broke the anti-combat log system

[Rick1633 136]

Well the patch fucked up the anti combat log system.

 

Just a few minutes ago, my buddies and I were on regular and at the Factory.   One of my friends went down to get a drink from under the bridge.   2 fuckers were hiding under a bridge and decided to shoot my friend while he was drinking water and killed him.   All they had were Mosin's.   What these fuckers didn't know is that myself and my friend Tyler were nearby and we were fully geared with Scoped M4's with plenty of ammo.    I engaged both of them while my friend came closer to help out.  I killed one, the other was standing up and looking towards me for a while.   I laid low but watched him.    He was standing up the whole time and as I was waiting for my friend to flank him..... Poof, the god damn mother fucker combat logged without sitting down.  He never fucking sat down like you are supposed to when you leave.

 

Why the fuck did the patch break the anti-combat logging system and are they aware of it?

[Irish. 4886]

LOL.. while he was standing, he was logging out. 

 

You do not have to be sitting down.. 

[Rick1633 136]

Ummmmm,    until tonight.

 

Every time you log out, I thought your body sits down after you try to log out.  I thought the whole point of that was to really show you logged out to try and encourage people to not log out.

 

When did bodies stop sitting down when they log out?

Your character sits down when you log off.

I think sometimes the sitting down animation doesn't play. When my friends log out they usually sit down, then stand back up, then sit back down again so there's evidence of animation problems. Have you tried watching one of your friends log out to confirm that it's a bug?

[Rick1633 136]

Maybe what I thought is old news?   Was it a long time ago that your body sits down?    You have to agree that would really help prevent combat logging because it shows the enemy when you are vulnerable.   Why the fuck would they not want this if they hate combat logging so much?

Your character sits down when you log off.

Thank you.  So I was right.   The fucking patch broke the previously good working anti combat measures.  Do you guys believe this might just be a one time glitch?  We should report this in case the patch completely broke it.

Good idea.   when people do the duplicating exploit, they can watch.   so that would be a way to check.

Exactly, he never, ever did this.  I watched him for a full 1 or 2 minutes.  He never once kneeled or sat down.  That's why I'm afraid either the patch fucked it up, or people know how to exploit the logging out?

[Weedz 1105]

He might have killed his process or his internet died or something

[Rick1633 136]

So are you saying there is an exploit of being able to leave  server without your character displaying the "sitting down due to log out" animation?   I would have easily killed him once I saw him try to log out.   This type of exploit is game breaking to people here.   Everyone and their mother here had complete hard-ons for stopping combat logging.   But combat logging is easy if you down expose your self by the animation.

When you "pull the plug" in various ways.. you will most likely not sit down.. you will stand in place, or glitch up and down. Sometimes you just outright vanish. 

 

When you click exit, and combat log.. you almost always will sit down, unless you stand first. Then you more than likely will stay standing from what I have seen in videos testing it.. I wish I could link them easily

The moral of the story here kids is: when in doubt, shoot the bastard :)

Don't know but if he really stood there for 1-2 minutes then disappeared probably something like that. Anyway I have more of a problem with people who need crutches in this game like hiding until they see people are sitting down so they can rush them when they get into a situation where they actually have a chance of dying after ambush killing one of them instead of having a firefight than I do someone who's internet died.

 

Sounds like your own fault for not killing a guy who stood still for 2 minutes straight because you were to afraid he might fire back after knowing there were people near.

   I believe that if you completely exit your game, like from Task Manager, without clicking exit, your character just disappears, instead of appearing to log out.

I crash a lot and a friend told me that I was continuing to run in place one time I crashed. We were running together at the time. So it probably isn't an instant log out for crashes/ en process

What are you talking about?  I fully engaged both of them in the beginning, killed one.  Then while my friend was closing in on the location to flank, I was assessing the current situation.  Its called tactics. The whole point of my thread is Im pissed he was able to leave the fight.  I fully expected to re engage him.   I never was planning on only killing him if he combat logged.   I was in the moment of the game.  The fucking pussy is him for using an exploit to combat log safely.

Thank you.  No I know that might be a way to do it.  Why didnt they fix this yet if everyone hates combat loggers so much?

   I don't mind combat loggers. They give me a good laugh when I see them, as I wonder how they have fun playing the game. Then I go on my merry way, with no worries to ruin my day.

Why didn't you just shoot him? Sounds like you had a clear shot.

This. Something isn't adding up when you're story is "so there are these 2 guys so I run up and KoS one and the other just stands there afk for 2 minutes so I just stare at him hoping I'll develop laser vision and kill him"

What I take from this is that you were watching him from around a corner, because if you were looking at him, you would have shot him. Great job, exploiter. Not to say other's don't do it, but you did do it.

[Rauchsauger 94]

@OP

The game has other issues that need adressing.

You should have just shot him.

You exploit if you you use a game mechanic in a way it is not intended...

So being able to check a corner in 3pp is just the way it is and has always been that way in almost all 3pp games ever.

 

So please quit your whining and play hardcore.

[thelonewarrior 886]

I can confirm the OPs problem

Met two friendly guys yesterday and one kept getting disconnected

As soon as the message said on the bottom right that he was kicked by battleye he immeiedtly disappeared

Happened multiple times

Although one and only one of the times he was disconnected did his body sit down

He was mod conversation some of those times as well

The RV engine goes for realism, and it is always questioned why you can see around corners. Someone even made a mod that fixed this. Stop defending the developers if you want a fix for this.

There is no need for a fix since you can simply play hardcore if you don't want someone stalking you with 3pp.

You just want your >>exploit<< third person view tailored to your personal needs

 

Seeing your char from above is exploiting FIX IT!!!!!111oneoneoneelevenone

You don't always sit down when you log out, sometimes the char even switches between prone and standing up.  The way you can see if someone is logging out is if they keep facing the same direction, without mouse input the char just faces the same direction all the time.  If the guy was in game he would be more animated while trying to see where you are.
