DC penalty is such a bullshit

Devs said every disconnect is considered the same, because they cannot know if player turned off his computer, or just pressed exit button. What a joke considering the fact, that this bugged game crashes a lot, even in the middle of a match.

    They said they are trying to make the system more fair, but the game can't distinguish your game crashing and you pressing the disconnect button. That is indeed very, very unfair, but yeah.

    Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    In which case I will say that the last time I crashed because of the game was a few months past. Largely the reason you would DC is usually your own fault, and the fault of servers having spikes that will result in people disconnecting.

    A lot of "game crashes" are a result of poor optimization on your computer. For example, having thr game set to Ultra settings when you can only handle medium, etc.

    I'm not saying you are having this problem, but I've had people who can't manage the right settings fitting of their PC for games and crash... then blame the games.

    Anyway, I hope what I said above isn't the case, I would love it if you went into more detail about it rather than complain about DCs dime a dozen.

    The disconnect penalties are too fair and my game hardly ever crashes.

    You realise that you could turn it off on the wall and the Devs wouldn't know if that was a power cut or intentional?

    Similar to communications on SWF, Devs can't tell so allow it
