Punished for leaving?

[Lagkill]

I don't understand. I was playing for a couple of hours after the patch came out, and my team was winning and we were having a time. Then I quit so I can go shower and eat, and when I come back I see all my gear is broken. I didn't quit in the middle of a game, and my team won the last game. Why do I now have to pay a fortune to fix every last piece of gear i had on when i stopped playing?

[Allers]

Ya that is what i was wondering. Thats really stupid

[Devilize]

same, i lost about 15k for leaving a round to go eat. in total ive lost about 45k within 3 rounds of playing a tank and leaving.

It's simple. If you leave, leave the server. If you are on the losing team your gear will downgrade. Even if you didn't participate nor get gold/xp.

Leave the slot open for other people.

I guess i didn't explain myself well enough, what i meant was that i left the server during a round to go eat not just afk for a round and then came back.

Cool. Sounds like another bullshit way to punish people like Call of duty or something.

I like the patch, but there definitely is room for some improvement.

Nonetheless, sorry for your losses.

Are you leaving mid-round or at the start of the next round?

I did. After a game completed I logged off. My equipment was then broken. I guess its okay if i played for a couple hours like tonight. But a lot of times I'll log in for a quick round or two. This will bankrupt me.

I wasn't in the middle of a round at all. I was at the selection screen before a new game started. It wasn't even mid-game. The map had just changed.

On one hand it's needed to prevent people leaving mid-game when they see they're going to lose, on the other we really could use a short period at the start of the match where you can leave the game.

[Blondin]

I'm ok that we should be punish to leave mid game but kick bug? or server disconnection?

[LLJK_DirtyCajun]

Soooooooooo what everyone wants is so that you can leave mid round when losing and your gear wont break.  Pretty dumb.

wtf? some people have to work and dont have school-holidays, so they cant play the whole day. and if i have my break i am able to play two or three rounds. But if all my equip breaks just because I want to stop playing or got a connection fail or get kicked or somebody visits me or my parents need help with carrying the bought stuff... I won't play after a few weeks, cause my stuff is broken and I am bankrupt.

[Manabalu]

Have to push it...
Do I understand this currectly? If I leaving the game at a running round I have to repair ALL my eqiupment? I can't play at all then, because my internet connection isn't very stable and I disconnect from time to time. I really hope it's not true.

How does the upkeep system works? I thought there is a chance that one item will be downgraded, if losing. So why not simply do the same when you leave the server. There is no reason to make the punishment harder than a normal loss...

I made a fuss about this on the taleworlds forum due to poor internet connectivity a month before the patch came out. You guys should have followed what was going on then, and spoke up. It IS rediculous that you can't have short play sessions, or have a semi-reliable internet connection and play. We ARE being punished needlessly, because the developers could not come up with a more imaginative way of dealing with item decay.

I could list several alternatives here, that could be implemented to make the entire system suck less. But I doubt there would be much point. Developers rarely listen to the most intelligent among their fans. And since that's me, my pleas would fall on deaf ears.
