For me it comes down this, am I willing to waste time and energy on worrying about combat logging? The easy answer, Nope, there is too much stress and things to worry about in my life that when I play xbox, it's just for fun and a stress relief. There is no need to add on another layer of junk to worry about. That is why I quit playing competitive multiplayer, it became unfun. When that happens, I adjust and do something that I enjoy, which is Coop PvE. Why waste the time and energy with this?

dont know why did you waste your time with a reply ?
 
Some people just have nothing better to do the moan about unimportant things. I get that its initially about an idea on how to tackle it but with the connection setup the way it is, its not going to change. wailing and Balling about it on a few posts won't get it changed.

please read 1st not wailing and balling as you seem to think

I have an idea how to combat the combat loggers.
seeing how we can record such actions now .
how about if we send the evidence to frontier and if they agree that the player logged then that player gets 10% of his assets removed from his account,making the players realize that combat logging will gain you no advantage and it would be financial better of to get blown up and paying the 5% re buy.

ideas?

rep to you but am all out of reps
 
hardly upset by a game but some here seem to be any mad have you logged ?

Ive been killed twice by players since game preview started, once in a cobra by a clipper winged with a python, and once in a type 7 by 2 anacondas lol.. truely brave players . I have learned from these experiences and handled players well now, without ever logging. I have never attacked a player and dont intend on doing so , its jus not my way, i want the game to succeed and last for years to come, so my thought is all should enjoy.
Ive unfortunately killed players now who have attacked me, i run a 2nd conda along my usual trade route, but its no trade ship. Call it baiting but if you interdict me and fire upon me then you were looking for it lol. And thru this i have experienced my fair share of actual "COMBAT logging" people pirating or worse and then when there plan fails they simply vanish lol poof.
Maybe they saved and quit , i cant know for sure, but if you pick a fight, and then log out i call that shadey at the very least lol. And the game goes on...
The game isnt perfect, but for me it has huge potential and i like to think they will continue to improve it. Honestly the one thing that can trip this game up is the community lol.... but hey i dont come on xbox to surround myself with common sense, i realize i will meet some good people, but some will leave me shaking my head lol
 
this thread was about an idea but some seen the need to defend themselves.
again if real life gets in the road i would offer that player to come back and destroy me but hey that's just me . honour and respect.

Sorry, that was meant to be a gag (IT Crowd reference).

As to defending myself. I don't really need to. I don't play in open, and I don't recall any situation where I was in a combat situation and needed to disconnect at a point where I was likely to be destroyed.

My point is, you cannot go handing out punishments just because someone happens to disconnect at a point that is inconvenient for you. They may have a perfectly good reason for doing so. Even if they did it just as they were about to die, it may be perfectly innocent. This means that FD would have to investigate instead of just handing out punishments. Pretty sure everyone here would rather they paid people to develop and improve the game rather than trying to determine if someone actually "combat logged" or not. In the end, those who do genuinely combat log (disconnect to save their backsides) are merely annoying little Rodneys. Just ignore them and let them enjoy their pyrrhic victory, as that is all it is. They know they lost, you know they lost.
 
Ideas?? yeah just get on with it.

This has to be at least the one hundred and eleventy twelth thread about combat loggers. ( and this might as well be linked to the "great" debate on solo, Pvt & open play discussion)

All of which blert out the same flak with the same result = nothing.

There is nothing more that should be done either. You catch a logger, report it, move back to the galaxy and carry on!!
 
touchy are we ....you know you didnt need to reply ,you could have just skipped over it

how is being fed up with the same threads and the same posts in the same league as touchy?? What you don't understand is that no matter how much you wanna complain on here it will make NO DIFFERENCE!

I think i saw that the amount on the topic of connection now totals over 25,000 posts and Fdev haven't changed their stance on that in 3 years so what makes you think that you are going to be any different to your "OMG THEY COMBAT LOGGED" predecessors??

Lets just wrap this up, report them in and move on.
 
hey i have an idea ........no wait forget it .........oh i know ....nope that's stupid too.........ahhh ......nope oh god daamn it solo mode it is then oh well

move along cmdr's nothing to see here on this pointless thread .....

Indeed. There will always be gits in any activity. Here we call them "griefers" and "combat loggers". On the road we call them "Audi drivers" :D

As an Audi fan (but sadly not a driver) I take offense to your bullying and griefing and will be reporting you to... well I don't know who BUT I WILL!

But in all seriousness, I thought it was BMW drivers that were the acknowledged jackwads? I mean, there's a meme out there somewhere saying "If you ever feel worthless, just remember there's a worker in a BMW factory somewhere responsible for installing turn signals."
