THis is getting kinda annoying, since whenever i press esc. or I'm checking my eq. i dont get any tick, and its frustrating* to have to wait after every ticket before i can press esc. or check my eq. i know they but the feature in because of Siege abusers, but c'mon its annoying on battle where you have to wait around more than in siege
Change it or remove it plz. Whine topic i know :|

+1 this system forces you to stay 100% of the time infront of the PC cant even go afk 5 min without loosing multi -.-
Also do something with the new system of loosing the multi when not spawning for 1 round, cant even have a RL now.
**WHINNING**
-
And dont forget that we cant even risk taking a piss, gettting some food, something to drink etc. without risking losing our X, I mean if you dont spawn why should the X be taken from you?
-
agree with OP. kinda sucks bunch of douches ruined it for us all
-
Yeah this shit sucks on battle,leave it only for siege!!!
WHINING
-
Yep, this new system is not the right way to stop the exploiting.
-
Go spec, leave game if you are going afk. I do not see a problem here. If you are playing the game you do not go afk. I never press escape myself. Should be possible to not forget it.
-

Yeah you can buddy, it starts by not caring about a multiplier.

Well i tend to be enoyed when something i get from spending time and effort get removed for some silly reason, thats generaly how people feel IRL, no?
-
Iam really tired of pressing alt+enter all the time when Im dead and I want to check something on the equip page or in the forum etc. , because it´s pure luck if I manage to get out of the frame and be able to click on the firefox logo.Its fucking retarded.
And for all the People saying: AFK! and such: There is a fucking loud trumpet sound when the round ends, not so hard to quickly open the game again then...
Please bring it back!
-
I didn't know about this.....
All the ticks i have lost T_T

There is a loud sound once the equipment screen pops up after a round! Always was.

"No struggle, no progress"
Even if that struggle means struggling with a bladder infection because you can't take a bathroom break.
-
Funnily enough i find myself riding some multi more often after these new changes, well, if i am not that unlucky to be autoed against byzanticunts :mrgreen:
-
So if I understand correctly, when I'm dead and changing my equipment or doing anything else that involves the esc menu, I don't get ma xp ? :mad:
-
Never knew about that either. So checking forums while dead = no xp/gold ? Incredible;
But true, just experienced it... now that's a real bother.

Well if you don't press esc and just alt-tab out of the game it should be okay... I'm not sure.

Nah, alt-Tab makes the game crash. Only way is to alt-enter and then Esc.

It's funny, I hear everywhere that the game crashes on alt-tab, but I never had the case, even on my old computer or crappy laptop.
You can always try using the goshdamned windows key that would finally have a use if it works.
-
If you play in window mode (or alt enter) you do not crash with alt tab and you never need esc. Never. And I often check my equipment at the same moment a tick should come, once closing the tick comes. ;)
-
When you die and you perss escape (regardless what you do afterwards, equipscreen, rulescheck, start a poll etc) you don't get xp.
This was implemented due to many people at siege who spawned, died and went afk. Perfect leeching without any chance to see whether the person went afk midround or was just actively leeching.
Only chance to get rid of that was by changing the system so that you don't get any xp/gold when you press escape. Now people spawn again on siege and get killed and after some time qml'ed or kicked by admins.
Alt+tabbing out of the game when you are dead is no problem, as long as you don't press escape beforehand.
Alt+tabbing might cause crashed, especially when you do it too often (and it seems especially when you have a multi :D )
Alt+Enter for windowmode works better and reduces crash chance (can still happen)
As far as I know it's not related to one's pc. It's just mount and blade and it's crappy engine :D
-

This is not the case for me, as I regularly check market/forums while dead.
I have paid attention to this and I do get EXP unless I hit ESC.
IMHO what we need is an auto-kick, and some sort of spawn protection (so cav can't kill these leechers on some maps, before they are auto kicked)
-
Good to know that using the Admin menu prevents them from gaining experience. They are aboozers anyhow :lol:
-
This is a seriously stupid feature.
No XP when you have the character stats menu open either (just tested).
Whoever implemented it should flog themselves and undo it. I must have lost tons of money and XP just from reading the forums between deaths while playing -- the easiest way to do that is to hit ESC so I get my cursor and then slide over to my other monitor. I can get around this incredibly stupid feature (like I am right now) but it's a hassle.
-
It may suck on battle but on siege ALL player suddenly started joining the game.
While you had about 5-10 (and more in the first round) in spec all the time you now get 1-5 in spec most of the time ;)
Quite refreshing seeing the people playing the game :p
-
Actually I think menus are blocking the text message of XP, but not the XP itself.
Test:
Note your XP.
ESC out of one tick.
Get the next tick.
Look at your XP. You gained more than 1 tick's worth.
Not gonna take the time to do the math but it looks like the menus are stopping the message but not the actual XP -- it shows up in your stats on the next tick (server knows you got the XP even if the client didn't get the message?)
Actually while testing this I got a tick in the middle of a minute...
So I think you are getting your missing XP.

It was even said in a patchnote a couple of patches ago that it doesn't work anymore. And I've tested it a couple of times unvoluntarily cause I stayed dead on siege due to being afk for a minute or two and I didn't get anything

Yes because chadz always keeps excellent up to date patch notes which represent the reality of the game...
I'm just sayin, try my test and check your actual XP at the end of it. Doesn't add up if we're really missing ticks.
-
Here is a protip kiddo if you want to go afk hit t and then alt tab and you will auto run so you can piss, though I do have over 20 bans from NA 1 so use at your own risk. or get a pee flask and funnel.
-
If people went afk on siege after dying, can't they just force respawn?

If you have the equipment screen open, you will not respawn. People on seige were doing this so that it didn't look as suspicious or couldn't be reported as a leacher. As annoying as it may be, it really is not that big of a deal to not leave the menu open.
...However, the multiplier reset for missing a round is a bigger problem. You are essentially locked into not leaving your computer if you do not want to lose your multi. I have no problem missing xp from not getting in on a round, because I had to use the restroom, got a drink, had to answer the phone/door, went out to smoke. Just don't take my multi away because I had to leave my chair for a few minutes.

You can alt+tab without hitting escape. I've never had this issue before. But I can see how if you're looking at equipment it could fuck you over, I guess I'm not in the equipment menu that often, and when I am it's always to change out a piece of equipment, not to compare stats...

Found a method that alt+enter guys can use instead of opening esc. Just press "C" in game and use that mouse instead.

or if you launch through steam, use the in game friends interface.
i just alt+tab without doing either though.

I always use steam to go to the forums etc. but I thought i should post it so non-steam guys could use it
-
oh, the old alt+enter THEN alt+tab works, and don't seem to crash.
Thanks a lot for that info, i can continue roaming through the forum while waiting for my team to win.

-
