I am also experiencing dc counts after death. I was contacted by 12 man groups about CW matches so I immediately found the enemy, blasted away until I was killed. After death, I clicked the spectate button, then quit match after a few seconds. I did this twice today and I have 2 dc counts on my record. I did immediately drop in a new game (obviously not with the mech that was locked by the solo drop). I hope this will assist in locating the issue.

Thanks PGI for all your hard work on creating such a varied and fun game.

Hey Navid, i m not on Twitter. Can u do me a Favor and twitter Russ, that i never left a Game until the Final Scoreboard shows up - and i have not the DC-Counter Problem like many other? Maybe it helps Russ...

[Cox Devalis]

I dont have a twitter account and I dont know who is Russ. But is it possible for him to look inside this topic if he is competent?

OK, one question...

I don't know if anyone has asked this, but to me, there is one unclear point..

Do we have to win the apointed match score on ALL the apointed maps to get ONE prize pack, or do we win ONE prize pack PER map on which we acheive the appointed match score?

So, for the solo que for example, if I win on all the maps, do I get 2 milion cbills or 18 milion cbills total? (2M for each map)

Also, I noticed one thing that's kinda unfair about the leader boards...

Some timezones get to start accumulatng leaderboard points ahead of others, and there is practically no chance the late-commers can catch up..

How am I supposed to be top-dog on a leaderboard that is designed to reward no-relationship, no-job, no-life players that can sit all night and day and play the game...

I'ts 8AM, and I'm at work now, just saw the tournament announcement.. and have no ability to play untill 11PM becouse of various real-life obligations, and people allready have 5000+ points.. there is no realistic chance I could ever catch up..

I'm not whineing, I'm just saying.. no-lifers have a distinct edge... your not rewarding skill, your rewarding not having a life..

Maybe you should make the leaderboard reward best score only in a certain number of matches attempted.. not best 10 out of a gazilion matches..

It thinks I have 5 of them now. I wonder if canceling searching for a game is counting as disconnecting?
Or if changing and saving settings in game is counting as disconnecting?

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.

Same here. Left the game only after I have died and still 2 DC's.

Leaving a match after you die counts as a disconnect. GG PGI.

(dumb limitation imo)

btw
About 7-8 hours of non-stop solo gaming = played Forest Colony once.

Additional clarifications:

Death caused by an out-of-bounds suicide currently counts as a strike (regardless of whether or not you leave the match before it's over).
Leaving a CW match before all four of your 'Mechs are destroyed will count as a strike.

We are currently looking into any additional scenarios that might be leading to strikes.

I sincerely hope you have fixed the out-of-bounds bug on Grim Portico then!

We'll see how it goes tomorrow if it is a major issue we will address it.
Remember Rejoin can and will help with any unintentional disconnects.

Some feedback:

I have disconnected a few times during the current challenge now and always managed to reconnect. I have also not disconnected from a match until destroyed.

I do, however, have a disconnect in my scores. Since I don't see myself making the leaderboards I doubt it will prove an issue but I just thought I should let you know something funky is going on.

[PyckenZot]

Great event! Now to find some time

[White Bear 84]

Up to 6 now, 3 from game crashes, 3 from leaving game after death.

Great rewards, poor execution.

Wish the contests wasn't dependent on map rotation landing where you need it.

wouldnt it be possible to stick with the matchh till its over? my internet cut off and i got 1, only 1. I stayed every match even after death.

[Lily from animove]

hmm, I already feel bad for the guys wiht a non stable internet connection.

also, this is going to be an metamech event, ouch.

But they, at leats a rather big event. Thats a lot more than many other f2p's pull out. Especially with the T1 and 2 packages being available for everyone.

But the leaderboard, well bought elite dangerous this week, so I am unfortunately too distracted to run for the leaderbord.

Always do.

All the disconnects I got back in and rejoined the game.

[ColourfulConfetti]

Having to get a match score of 400 on 8 maps is just infuriating, not because the bar is set high but because landing on the map you need is based on luck of the draw.
