Guild Wars 2

I think this would the best solution to counter people that alt+f4 when they are downed, a 20 minute debuff that doesn’t allow you to reenter WvW but this only applies if you don’t leave WvW through the entrance portal. While this might affect a few people that crash/disconnect due to bad computer/internet I think that it is a necessary evil to get rid of these blatant griefers

Moderator edit: removed CoC infraction from thread title

i think they should add a fifth downed button that simply exits the game and actively encourages this behavior.

i much prefer my enemies i have defeated to leave the game completely. i know they are so beaten they are either out of the running altogether, or at best have a longer time to return to any actual objectives.

its sort of like a fatality the way i look at it. one that leaves my server as a whole in a better position.

The easiest solution is to have the character stay in the world for an extra 30 seconds so they can be finished off. Let them rage quit but don’t deny the person who won the fight their (possible) reward.

Problem is people are not getting any rewards(badges/gear) for killing them and getting back to were they were before after logging out to character selection screen doesn’t take that long

Anyone who alt+f4’s automatically gets finished off Mortal Combat style. And their corpse drops a few sparklers or something.

Babality!

Problem solved

1 for altf4 make player “die” and xp/loot with bonus, but not for debuff because they have always disconnected of crash people

I agree with making player die when they alt f4 and xp/loot dropping- after having had this happen numerous times and missing out on a lot of kills and loot it can become annoying- a bit like thiefs being able to hit 8k4k4k in .5 of a second from stealth before you can even react your dead.

The downside of that is that they will just start logging to character selection right before they are downed and bypass the system again that’s why I suggested a debuff for disconnecters

how the hell do you leave WvW through the entrance portal while downed?

I’d pay good money to see than happen as a stealth patch and hear them all cry in chat omfg I just died wtf!

btw, I really dislike leaving through the unnecessary portal.
Anet messed up big time when they put that kitteny dungeon into kittening Lion’s Arch. Leaving through that stupid portal means:
-fast-travel to spawn.
-load the spawn
-step through the portal
-load for a long time
-finally arriving in an overstuffed overflow chunk, greeted by a spammed chat and massive lag
-open the map
-pay to fast travel back to where I just have been.
-load the location

Instead of:
-press f12
-click your character
-loading screen
-appearing just where you have been

btw a nice way of restocking on tools, accessing the bank, using the mystic forge and selling junk during pve:
-enter wvw
-buy/sell stuff
-f12
-click character
-done

A.net can also remove the repair penalty from WvW to discourage that. People don’t want to leave due to their own selfish wants; but instead they usually Alt+f4 to avoid the incurring repair bill.

Repair in PvP is a stupid concept and it should be removed from WvW, but it won’t happen considering there is PvE in WvW.

They don’t character screen for repairs, but because they feel like the people killing them didn’t deserve the kill. (i.e. 50 people gang banging 5).

While I dislike this, sometimes, I do lag in wvw and there’s no option for me except to alt+f4.

D/C’s and crashed would be punished by this idea.

It would break more than it fixes.

Bad idea is bad.
