StanTastic Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 For implementing a penalty to WZ quitters! Today I have enjoyed the plentiful amount of forum tears with people saying " I should be allowed to quit because" blah blah blah; suck it up Sally time to man up and not look for a team to carry you! Only people that have a slight right to complain is the people with frequent crash's/ bad interwebz; but that can ( for the most part) be fixed with a little self effort. Awesome job; thanks for improving my gameing experience in WZ's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabbathius Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I have one word for you - GATORADE! Stock up on it, and start drinking it pretty heavily. You need to hydrate yourself, to prepare for all the weeping you're going to do on this forum when all these quitters turn into AFKs instead, just like you've always wanted.

Eyevan Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 It really is funny when I see people posting why quitting a WZ should be allowed. Now they need to implement a vote kick system that players can use. And have the timer double if you get vote kicked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, vote kick would fix this. Leave a wz 30 min punishment. Get vote kicked out, 1 hour punishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fidopro Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 lol if my team sucks I will just afk, alt tab to browse the internet and tab back to hit my space bar to avoid afk detection until the game ends. no big deal really but it will take longer to get dailies done.

Now we just need a Filter to select out WZs and a Vote/Kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those of us AGAINST this, aren't defending it as it currently is because we quit WZ's...I don't. I defended the "No Penalty" system because I'm afraid we'll have a ton of jackholes like this guy replace the quitters. But...looks like it'll change in 1.2. Great...

Tren Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 One would hope that they'll make an effort to fix the safezone kicks (joining a WZ in progress - don't load in time to get out the door, speeders don't spawn in the ACW safezone, etc.) prior to just penalizing people who get kicked from a WZ for no fault of their own.

Richoshist Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Most of the people screaming for a vote kick would be surprised to find themselves being booted more often than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamajawn Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) I don't leave WZs as a rule (I left one once), but I'd much rather that BW create a new incentive system that rewards gameplay and achieving objectives rather than take the easy way out with a debuff. I think the unintended consequences of this decision will be significant and cause further damage rather than fix the problems. Leaving is a symptom of a problem, not the problem itself.

jonnyshadow Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 a vote kick would be nice but hopefully it wont get abused..but imo im glad they are making a penalty for quitters but if they were to implement a vote kick system the person who got kicked get a 30 min timeout but the only thing im scared about a vote kick system is the a*******s in the the game that will abuse that system (people do stupid things for stupid reasons) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delavager Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 What is this talking about? Is this talking about 1.2 removing the daily requirement to win thus encouraging players to stay 'till the end? Patch 1.2, among many other PvP changes, will remove the reliance on daily quests for your gear progression (and therefore increasing the value of the commendations you get for playing a match to the end) and penalties for quitters.

Too many issues with players hacking, exploiting, WZs kicking people, Getting trapped in the spawn area then kicked, falling into the void star canyon and not dieing, etc etc etc Fix all the other issues then just don't give peeps the opion to leave. Debuffs / lockouts for WZs is totally stupid idea in the face of all the other game issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debuffs / lockouts for WZs is totally stupid idea in the face of all the other game issues. Thanks for bringing exploits up. They are a tremendous disincentive in PvP. I take the stance that people want to PvP and enjoy it. Get the enjoyment factor in there and remove the disincentives and the problems go away. Good managers know that they will get whatever their incentive system is set up to reward. Right now, the incentive system is badly flawed and rewards afkers, exploiters, and those who leave WZs. I think we all agree that leaving WZs is a problem, but we disagree on how to fix it. I think punishment is a very short-term strategy and won't solve anything, even in the short term.

Axethales Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Give me /kick PLEASE. Then when a newbie joins with crap gear, or a player you know sucks we can kick them. Furthermore, if that guy that keeps talking about alienware computers in general chat joins we can kick him too, since we just don't like that guy. Lastly, the ugly psycho chick that everyone hates... we can kick her out too. The game will slowly, but surely get better. If your character don't move in a WZ for 30 secs - auto boot. Pretty damn simple. I've never seen a player stand still in a warzone for THIRTY seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entropicus Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Yes. Do tell. If the OP is correct, then this is good news. Now we just need a Filter to select out WZs and a Vote/Kick. While I like the idea, why happens when you want your 2nd group in the same WZ, vote kick everyone else. Like when they rolled premade Alrerac Valleys and tried to trick people into using the "summoning portal" so more spots would open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
