It's 2025 and Arc Raiders offered this feature in a tech test, so whats the problem here? Have they said why they can't figure it out yet, can anyone chime in? We lost a Playoff game last night beca...

So in most games when you DC but can reconnect you are just standing still in place(Apex Legends as an example). So if you have a human player just not playing it could cause problems. Now if you were to want a player to magically go to the bench and a CPU comes out then I'd worry about them reconnecting getting their right player build used and of course the stat tracking. Anyone remember how long it took them to fix pulling a human goalie erasing the goalie stats when they became a skater? It took quite awhile. But let's be honest in Drop-Ins people would troll using this causing an even bigger balance issue. Especially if the goalie wants to do it.
rsandersr47 If someone were to just get online and we had space early in a game then we'd just back out. A record/ratings means so very little. It should be able gaming with friends and trying to have a good time. There isn't any real reward to being a top team/player
Yeah, I feel it. It just sucks to do that haha! I guess there are ways it can be exploited. I don't see any of those as a huge issue though. I think the advantages outweigh the exploits but it's w/e to me. Imo if it's easy to add.. I'd throw it in drop in and see how that goes. See what can be exploited see if it ruins games or w/e then discuss whether or not to bring it to club.

It's really not as easy to add as you would think. That goes for most anything connection related. It would be different if it were just one person, but with potentially 12 human players, disconnecting and reconnecting, the likelihood of a desynch is pretty high.
