Aborting/alt-f4 - ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Solutions!

Recommended Posts

Logging to avoid death is a product of perma death, any game that has perma death has people trying to avoid it by logging, disconecting their internet, shut down computer, etc.

People will always try to game a system and will always try to justify it to themselves and others in some way.

The implications of Altf4 go beyond pvp though, players use this to escape pve encounters because it allows them to lose aggro and also avoid death if they didn't do it before they were attacked. This screws with the economy and eliminates the games balance.

The balance of DayZ is that it should provide the same experiance for all players, other than that there should be no balance as it is a simulation, there is no blance IRL. Being an honest do gooder is harder and less successfull than being an in it for yourself bandit. If someone drops a 20 in front of you and you gave it back its doing the right thing, but at teh cost of your own success, your choosing this path so stop complaining about it.

The DC timer should be at least 30 seconds this will punish everyone and keep people from logging out in locations where aggro/player encounters are common.

When I see someone AltF4´ing I usually camp the spot till he log in again give him a lead-overdose.

Unless they simply swap servers or ghost around to a new location and shoot you in the back of the head.

Posting to support a log out timer.

Unfortunately, as has already been stated, the engine isnt allowing it at the moment.

Hopefully, they can find a work-around.
