Kick option for ppl who not respond when someone has dc

Postby laPPen » 26 Sep 2012, 22:38

I had a few games lately where someone timed out and we got a disconnect screen.
The disconnected person got kicked by all but one person (normally someone who died already
but stayed in game as obs- this person went afk and didnt kick)
So the game didnt go on and was ruined.
So is it possible to implement an option to kick everybody after a certain time
of disconnect screen beeing open?
We had this option in gpg and i kind of miss it since this issue spoiled a few games in past.
We could make it like 5 mins or sth so it wont be abused.
Whats other ppl opinion about that - give me your thoughts.

I agree totally with this, even in some cases players have refused to kick and stayed there for ages to get the points, which is very very sad.

Many games are ruined by this problem so I would love to see something implemented to help with this.

i agree totally.

when someone does this, it would suggest to get rid of the desync window in replays as well (which occurs, if somebody leaves NOT through the score menu). i think that these two things are similar to fix.

No and no.

The desync popup means that your game is desync. You can remove the popup, but the game you are watching is not the one that was played.

So is it possible to implement an option to kick everybody after a certain time
of disconnect screen beeing open?
We had this option in gpg


There is absolutely no difference with what you had in GPG. I did not remake the netcode or anything like that.

It was there. im more than sure.
After a certain time when the dc screen was open u were able to kick anybody
in the game. not only the disconnected person.
It got abused sometimes ppl on the losing side just kicked others
randomly in order to ruin the game

That's probably something that was fixed in 3603.

Yep, this got so annoying. Its good you cannot do this in FAF though. I think after all but one player in a 3-6 player game vote to kick then the last one should not have a choice. in a 7-8 player game the last 2 should not have a choice.
