I m tired of seeing victims logging out of the game to prevent a death. It sickens me. I know this hs been brought up before and has been discussed numerous times, but I have never seen anyone come up with a true fix, I could have missed it.
Here is my solution to the logout to save me from a death.
1. Every time you logout of the game there is a background script written somewhere to either the client or server. Use this to charge a death if someone logs out during a PvP if the script was written
2. There is a problem with option statement one. People can still reset there router, unplug there LAN cable, or cycle power to any decvice. I don't have a problem with this because it will take longer for this player to return to the game. That puts the other team in a man down situation. So if this happens you don't charge a automatic death to that team.
This is my fix please I would love to hear more ideas and maybe we can get a fair fix to people logging out to save a death.

Make us wait 10-20s when we log out or change toons.
As someone that changes toons a lot its a bit annoying... on the other hand... it 100% ends the practice of logging out to avoid a death.

I hope when you will get a snr to be banned .They should first test the system on you.
Both are typical resolutions for the problem of people leaving a match in the middle of it..
They could also just have it where if your in a PVP Match, and you log out, your character dies and a point is given to the opposing side, in the case of an arena, this would how ever suck for players who accidently get DCed.
Ker'rat they at least fixed so that when you log out, you log back in at the exact spot before. Sure it doesn't help if they just wait for the Zone Reset. But if they don't it can be quite funny.

The real fix could be you log out and you can't go back to the pvp match. As I have only seen it with premade teams I think that would be a possible fix too. But I like your 30 second sitting duck idea too.

so you cut your internet instead of using logout bind ...problem solved lol
Yeah, you personally won't log out. Instead, you will just use the Lobi store Stasis Pistol + Engineering Minefields for an instant kill people like you have been in the ground queues the last few days :rolleyes:. The only time people use logout in ground matches is when someone is exploiting a mechanic to get cheap kills (i.e. stasis pistol + minefield, sword 15+ chain knockbacks, 5 man spawn camping). If you don't want people logging out, then don't abuse other problems with the ground game. It's why so many people have been using /logout or just flat out leaving the match when they run into you and your team Doc. Nobody enjoys sitting there helpless while the other team hammers on them with impunity when the reason for it is because the other team is using design flaws. The stasis pistol was designed to take a target out of action, allowing your team to finish off the other nearby targets faster. It was not designed to hold someone there while you lay mines at their feet right before the stasis expires to get a free kill.

The stasis kill, not the log out
Think about it, Stasis pistol has a 18 second cooldown, mines have a 25 second cooldown. A team with one person with stasis can get an easy kill every 25 seconds via stasis pistol + mines. A team with 5 people + stasis can kill the entire opposing team with the stasis pistol + mines every 25 seconds. There is a grand total of one thing in the game that clears it, the mental discipline trait, which has a four minute cooldown. The trait can't even be obtained by most ground races. So would you mind explaining how that's a "brilliant tactic"? It's cheap noob garbage that Doc pulls out when his team is losing, because he knows it is the one ground ability that can't be countered.
