Disconnects need fixed

Almost every match there is a disconnect in domination pvp. The auto-boot leaver penalty for 10 second disconnects has made the problem far worse than it ever was. A whole lot of people disconnect for 5 or 10 seconds then get right back into the game. Making it so that these minor dc's cannot rejoin the match is usually a death sentence for the team and it is killing dom pvp.

Whatever they do it needs fixed because right now it comes down to the team that does not have the disconnect is the team that wins. And that is pretty much almost every single match.

    Yes agreed, hate losing because of this! One time I was kicked out of the match while watching 1v1s, I guess because I didn't move in a while? Either way 30 min penalty ~_~

    I hate winning to it also, love solid competition. It can't be that hard for them to write a piece of code that allows disconnects as long as the player returns to the same map within one minute, after that is fair game for the penalty. For 1v1s we really should have a 1v1 pvp format in addition to domination, with no afk penalty so everyie can join the match to watch but only the two players flagged could fight.

    It just got me again. Dog knocked the cord out of the router, dc'ing me, I immediately plugged it back in and was out of the match for a total of 10 seconds. Get back on, in the map and "you are no longer a part of this map, leaving in 5 seconds..." back to PE and unable to que for 30 minutes.

    Between this kind of fail and the bugged refinement crit am glad I am holding off on spending anything on this game.

    I was activly moving in a GG pvp match and the screen changed and I landed back in PE with a leaver penalty. no disconect, no idle time, so unless someone had the power to kick me this is a serious bug that needs fixing. My partner says the instance leader board shows me having points even though I am not in the match anymore.

    I experienced this today and i got upset. I disconnected for less than 10 secs (disconnecting and then log in and entering the zone again) i saw i was not able to play anymore and then penalty. Its a pain and frustrating to leave ur team abandoned. 1 of the worst thing ever made for pvp so far in this module

    Their 2 servers are running heavy today. Stop shopping at Wal-Mart ffs!

    It got so bad last night I just gave up and have started playing a different game. I didn't go to another game out of mod6 rage or being mad at being disconnected, I went because Neverwinter was essentially unplayable. Literal 5-10 second lag spikes. Insane rubber banding. Like a frame every few seconds. In pvp.

    I am still way more into this game than I should be, and I genuinely feel that the devs will eventually right the worst wrongs, but when you physically cannot even play a game due to lag and disconnects, there is nothing else you can do. You might have loved that horse and even though it is near death and can no longer walk let alone run, you don't want to take that saddle off. Well the **** thing isn't even moving now so I guess all things eventually come to an end.

    Game crashed for me today , back after 2 mins and it just kicks me out. FIX IT, is it hard just to edit one value for this? It's obviously stupid.

    There was an exploit that allowed you to silently kick people in pvp. I don't remember if it was fixed but it sounds like you were a victim of this.

    and again happened today. disconnected in the middle of a match then got penalty when going back. this needs to be fixed and leave it as it was before. This is becoming more annoying either pve and pvp. not a way to have fun in this game any more.

    I am pretty sure it has been fixed. The new thing now is if you don't think you are definitely going to win a match, just leave party and take the penalty and the match doesn't count. It isn't even an exploit but rather the unofficial forfeit option. So ya, the DC by accident/on purpose thing is entirely broke. You should get three minutes to reconnect and if you do not, you are hit with a loss and the penalty.

    This has happened to me a bunch of times since mod 6, DO NOT click leave instance when you load back in or you will get a 30m penalty

    but.. what do u mean? i cannot even click "leave instance". Even if u click or not (i guess) u will have penalty. this is a serious thing to fix, it kills pvp for people who has problems with their internet, or had an incident at their home that disconnected them.

    They need to give us an option when logging back for 10 seconds to either stay in pvp match or leave (penalty included)
