Guild Wars 2

Not sure weather to post this in bugs or pvp forums, but I DCed from a ranked match, rejoined with 50 points to go in the game and had 0 points on the score board. The match ended and I got 0 credit for the match, 0 rank points and 0 reward track points for a match in which I was almost the top player before DCing. That’s total trash on the part of whoever “redid” your system for credit in pvp. It’s a serious problem and it needs to be resolved. Ranked matches should track your participation throughout the match. DCing should not affect this.

DCing does have a major effect on a match even the the instances where players are “only gone for a minute”. I hope dishonor gets enabled again soon so they get more of a penalty.

Well anet had a ‘new build’ which kicked everyone out mid-match. I took -3 ladder point loss even though we all rejoined and my team won 500-50.

-_- it takes me an hour to recover a -3…

regardless of what ever idiotic ideas you have, i was almost entirely responsible for why the match was 450 to 125 in my teams favor. ALSO win/loss in tie matches is determined by which ever team has more added player points. i.e. my 250 points on the board would have mattered quite a bit (if the game ended in a tie). not having points on the board tied to your account is just a poor system. Penalizing DCs so harshly for players who rejoin almost immediately is just not right.

I’m playing my tiny violin for you guys. Such a sad song too.

@flyphish : obvious troll is obvious. go troll somewhere else please.

There really should be a grace period for reconnecting. It’s poor planning on Anet’s part, their zero tolerance stance isn’t a good decision. Some of the most popular competitive games have grace periods before the player is punished. Also add in the fact that GW2 servers aren’t exactly the optimum makes the problem even greater.

Not trolling. You really should (and will) be penalized more. You are lucky you did not have to sit out for a few minutes with dishonor.

I say count your blessings.

Player who is responsible for 250+ player points on the board should be penalized for a less than 30 second DC to fix a server sync problem cause by the anet servers? makes total sense bro.
