[GoKuXo]

in CW the game start and i end with black screen, so i close the game, then reconect to the game and end with more of 200 point, but still i got:
Total Disconnections
1


i got a black screen for the second time, so now i ask a friend to kill me... please, fix the problem!

As I said earlier in this thread we will be keeping an eye on how the disconnects play out.
The intention was to deter people purposely dropping out of matches and leaving their team a man down.
We will update the rules tomorrow if necessary.

Disconnect counter is bugging. I only left a game once after being dead and it gave me a disconnect in the tournament page counter. Solo que.

I have very few played games during the event, like 5 and no disconnects to PGI servers outside this single time I left the match before scorescreen after I had allready died. So should help debugging the issue.

Also the map rotation was weighted evenly for the public Queue for this event.

I understand and appreciate the rule, but that's not what's happening as we're getting hits on the disconnect counter after we've died contrary to what the rule states; I hope these instances will be cleaned up.

Seems to be a great event !

But why has it already started on Thursday ?
And why is the Leaderboard already filled before I even know that there was an event ?

[Kaptain]

I have disconnected (error) twice and reconnected. It thinks I have 5 disconnections in which I did not reconnect.... support contacted.

I'm about ready to abandon this whole thing...and it also doesn't help that the 400-point thresshold for pug matches is really high...and 300 seems high for CW too...

Look at the CW Leaderboard. Guys do ~800 per match.

400 in a pug is not too bad at all, maybe you should rather analyze why you can't get a decent contribution in a team game rather than complain to pgi that they for once reward for playing decently rather than reward for minimum effort done? 400 score for tier 2 rewards is a good game, couple kills, ~700 dmg, 1-2 most damage done, 6+ assists and protection/hitnrun etc bonuses. 300 score is just a decent game.

Nothing spectacular.

I also have a disconnect recorded despite following the letter of the law. Bugged challenge. So they'll extend it for three more weeks to make up for it.

** CONSIDER: How is a DC recorded by the server? Is it once you die you have to "ok" off of the screen spinning around your dead mech or what? when is a DC a DC? **

a short question... I haven't played CW since they changed the scoring formula. So it is enough to make 600 damage with 4 mechs to get to 300? And some little stuff of course to even out the 4 death penalties?

Or does CW have a different match score calculation?

How I see it, you either do the pug queue challenge and grind your way through it or you go the CW route with a easier(?) score and better rewards.

Or is there something I forget?

[John Werner]

Dear Support, maybe it helps:

I did ~15 Match and i like to wait for the Final Scoreboard.
I wait every Match till the End.

I have zero! Disconnects. 0. Nothing. All fine.

Maybe that verify, that the DC Counter count ppl who died and leave and dont wait till the final Scoreboard.

I got stomped..as in 99% of the games and left...mech was dead...+1 to DC counter? WTF!!!!

[Rolodius]

Played tonight and did crap load of matches. never dc'ed unless I died and had no unexpected dc. just checked my counter and I'm up to 7. I like to mix up my mechs and I do play locust but sometimes I get one shotted and so I dc. wonder if it has to do with how soon you exit the match from the start of it.

No, I got my only 1 DC from match that was almost over, well over half time played. Quit after my mech had died. The system is just bugging and counting leaves from match after death as DC. Wait for scoreboard. Every other time I was alive at the end or waited for scorescreen. I only have like 5 games played so its easy to isolate.

hop on twitter.

[Master Pain]

i only dc after my mech is destroyed and i have 2 dc's now. there seem to be alot of people that dont even qualify for the event now because they are getting counted as dc even when they dc after they die.
