nathanbayfield@live.com 2 Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) @ Cherno apartments time of posting.5 guys in the space of an hour get shot at by my party and DC SEVERAL TIMES to avoid death.we exit through the hills at the back and one guy reconnects and mows down our entire party.What is even the point anymore? The game is unplayable until Rocket adds in a timer for the disconnect. How hard can that be?ALSO every server is ADVERTISING disconnecting when you join. 'disconnecting will be punished'? REALLY? I haven't seen it punished once! Every new player is seeing that and going 'oh! i'll do that when I have good gear!'FUCK.will have video evidence of some of the DCs up soon.

alexander.dudley@btinternet.com 3 Posted July 19, 2012 I can back this up, as a member of the party. I shot 3 people with a CZ 550 and both disconnected once they took at hit, blood spurting everywhere. I'm also very fed up of people disconnecting before they die.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wordplayuk@gmail.com 101 Posted July 19, 2012 I'm sick of it too, and I'm pretty sure anyone who doesn't themselves d/c to avoid death sees it as a priority. Unfortunately I just don't think the fix is, in practical terms, as easy to deploy as people think. There is a post in announcements where rocket makes a pretty empty threat in regards to doing something about it, and how easy a fix it would be, but that was a while go now. I really hope it is high on his list of priorities but until a permanent workable fix has been publicly rolled out I wouldn't hold my breath. It's a real game breaking shame but I still love DayZ.

nathanbayfield@live.com 2 Posted July 19, 2012 aye, I saw that. Ban if you log in and out too much? that doesn't solve a fucking thing!all there needs to be is a timer and alt+F4 not actually DC'ing you from the hive. If this isn't fixed in the mod surely Rocket will be able to do something about it for the stand alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gtok 3 Posted July 20, 2012 Hi guys. As server Admin of UK41 i take the abuse of the Server DC as a means to gaining an unfair tactical advantage very seriously. Please send me any and all evidence you have of these players and i will look into banning them from the server.I hate to see peoples game ruined by an unfortunatly large majority of players who are too scared to play the game properly.

soapmak3r 677 Posted July 21, 2012 If they add a timer to connect/disconnect to the game in it's current state, they will kill it instantly...The reason? So many servers do not show the correct time. So many servers are horribly unstable. So many servers are bugged out. So many servers are running different, conflicting beta patches and on and on...Half the time I have to join 5-10 servers just to find one that is working, and daylight. Everyone I know is in the same boat...In order to find a working server for us all to play on, we basically all have to go and search for one, random servers, make sure it works, has enough spaces for us, and is advertising the right time, then get them to join.So yeah, a timer would kill the game in one move at the moment. Until all the servers are working, properly labelled, and running the same ArmA2 beta patch version, there is absolutely no way a timer can be implemented.
