Wonder how they'll handle the loot if the reconnect system is added since we drop our stuff after a DC
When game crash, I think it will be death box, pick banner and once the player rejoin, you will able to respawn them.
They should limit this to game crash, NOT network disconnect or shut application down.
The dev should able to see the error log is software error then allow to go back in.
Otherwise people will simply unplug cable/wifi, or restart the apps.
- @asukojo Assuming they implement it with the method you mentioned, I'd say any case where they are forced to leave the game should warrant the ability to reconnect, except if the player leaves the game in the conventional manner. I see no benefit or exploit to the reconnect by purposely causing a disconnect.
If u knockdown and team mate can't pick banner, people can cheat "disconnect" then reconnect back to get respawn later in the game.
One simple strategy, each member split to 3 different places, when 2 of the die, they "disconnect" then reconnect back close to top 10/5 or close where they're so many loot boxes left behind.
- @asukojo They'll include the time out timer on picking up the reconnect banner, hopefully.
