Wait. what?

CW Drop, Grim Portico, 12er drop....
One bad router, player disconnects...
And we as a group have to wait the 10sec penalty before the next drop?!?!

Is that intentional?

PS: Mods, please move to appropriate forum... sorry.

You are in the wrong part of the forums buddy. Post this crap in the CW section.

He is penalized for dropping. How can you drop at the same time as him without being delayed?

If you really can't wait 10 seconds then kick him from the group.

Next silly complaint, please.

Frequently I get dropped due to router or server errors. I try to rapidly reconnect to minimize the effect on my team, but now will have a 10 sec penalty to rejoin?! Just dumb.

There are better ways to identify and penalize frequent afkers. I don't think this change is well thought out.

This complaint is not silly but very valid.

I don't know what you people are reading, but the penalty description I read says you are delayed when you try to search for a new match. Doesn't say anything about rejoining the match you have in progress.

Pretty sure there is a 3 minute window to rejoin in where you will get no Disco Penalty.

If your guy cant get back in 3 minutes drop him and get into queue by yourselves, tell him to drop solo on the planet you are own and get in the queue that way to keep his penelties to himself?

Other then that i dont see a way around without help from PGI.

Reading is hard.

Unformed ranting about something that does not exist is easy, aka The Boogeyman.
