Disconnecting...and camping.

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if there are plans in place to prohibit people from disconnecting from a session?

I remember playing Everquest; when one had to log out, they must sit down and 'camp'... The process of camping required a wait of 15 seconds before the game drew to a close. This ensured the safety of the players character...

Players who simply used ALT + F4, or closed the game via other means were allowed to do so, however their character remained in game, out of control for a full 15 seconds.

Is there some way to accomplish this in ARMA / DayZ? Are there similar plans in place? Just my $0.02.

hmm... How about that... But the importance of keeping Player characters in game after a player has disconnected reinforces behavior that its in their best interest to remain connected during a fire fight... It also encourages players to log out in safe areas such as forests, and not hot spots such as fire stations.

The only way to disconnect to safety should be finding a safe place ( house / tent / woods ) if you want your character to still be alive if you reconnect the next time.
