bogroll (DayZ) 26 Posted July 31, 2012 Would stop Alt-F4 and the slightly slower Esc>Abort. If you have to log-off then it's off to the countryside for you.Could this work in the Arma engine? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doom4mr 135 Posted July 31, 2012 and if you play with friends? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xaiier 27 Posted July 31, 2012 And if you are getting sniped from >200m? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bogroll (DayZ) 26 Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) and if you play with friends?You run 200m away from them into the woods.It's not perfect but getting sniped by a good marksman ought to mean you are toast anyway.As far as the posts below are saying re having to log off cos of RL - well that's the price perhaps. Cmon it's not that difficult to find countryside in Cherno.Suspenselol - 2000m is 2km btw. Edited July 31, 2012 by bogroll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simonjames (DayZ) 10 Posted July 31, 2012 not really sometimes i have to log off in town .....or sometimes i have to log off because of rl issues and cant spend 10 mins running to the woodsthere is simpler ways to defeat lame douchebags that log off to ghost around or cheat death ..global/server ban Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suspense 210 Posted July 31, 2012 You run 200m away from them into the woods.And if i am in cherno and dont have time to run 2000 meters out of town to "hopefully" not be near a horde of players? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonybravo 4 Posted July 31, 2012 Will never work :D what a bad idea.. people will jsut use it to cheating, like standing in elektro and try to log out to see if anyone is near you.. bad idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peke_kantsi@hotmail.com 36 Posted July 31, 2012 Again read patchnotes, people who alt + f4 will be banned if they keep doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrettHarrenton 29 Posted July 31, 2012 Fuck that what if i want to get off on a 75 person server jackass? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suspense 210 Posted July 31, 2012 Again read patchnotes, people who alt + f4 will be banned if they keep doing it.I suggest you read the patch notes. No ones getting banned, everyone is being LOGGED. No action is being taken, and no system to enforce suspensions/bans based on player actions has been developed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doom4mr 135 Posted July 31, 2012 and if there will be systems to check if player received damage in last 10-30 seconds or used his weapon etc? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
concepts (DayZ) 7 Posted July 31, 2012 Somewhat like my friends suggestion, I personally like his better, but, their both nice.His suggestion : If a bullet is fired within 2m of you, then you can't ALT+F4 until you move 50m from your position, and another bullet is not fired.

teocyn 37 Posted July 31, 2012 Until they fix the rampant hacking in this game, changing anything else (apart from FIXING the appalling screen tearing) is pointless. This idea, is pointless. Shoot to kill, don't fuck around, shoot him in the head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bogroll (DayZ) 26 Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Like that idea of proximity shooting concepts. Perhaps a combination of methods. Nothing will be perfect.BrettHarrenton - You're a charmer. Getting 200m away from someone even on a 100 player server is pretty easy don't you think.tonybravo - i don't think players will go through the hassle of logging relogging to do this. Maybe wrong.

Wiley 49 Posted July 31, 2012 I'm not in favor of that, as it would be used as a detection capability. Why not just a 1 or 2 minute logout delay regardless of what's going on/near you? You can exit, but your character stays where they are for the amount of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can exit, but your character stays where they are for the amount of time.If you approach a village and see Zombies in the distance there's a cue. Dead zombies also another. If you're in Cherno or Elektro you'd be foolish to assume nobody is around. I dunno. it was a thought anyway.As far as the timer thing goes Rocket has mentioned some ridiculously low time (in seconds) whereby a character is frozen in place before logoff. I would support the 2 minute time. You've got to be pretty sure your safe; therefore you're not in combat. Edited July 31, 2012 by bogroll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wiley 49 Posted July 31, 2012 This will never work. -.-Why? If you're logging off in an unsafe area, that's your choice if it bites you in the ass. Stick around to be able to defend yourself if need be, but any motion/action would abort the logout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
