    What's wrong?
    Does it feel like you're about to be denied something you like?

    Yeah. I know that feeling too. :p

    Sorry, really had to go there. After being deconstructed on so many times despite never deconstructing myself, I am feeling a little vindictive. Game's going to be less stressful and more fun now.

    I am all for fun an diversity, hell I hate nerfing, but decon has no reason for being in the game. It is purely for people to abuse an piss on other players, an you know it.

    there was a problem, SoE fixed it. The player base abused the fix and soe didnt say anything about it. Soe is removing the fix and putting the problem back in.

    ...noobsammich to gooooo for myself and my few thousand friends

    we r all idiots, we have all failed, somone hit the reset button and let's try this again :(

    except if xp was granted anyway, then there'd be no "pissing on people"

    And there are reasons for deconstructing- from the immersion to helping the "nanite lore" to things like the guy who mentioned getting rid of his vehicle so he could do stealthwork

    and THAT is FUN... someone tries to kill you and you manage to kill your self , not only you should be allowed but you deserve a medal ;) because sure its hell of a fun to do

    i do that as infantry as well BTW, just throw a grenade and walk in to it before your heath reaches zero ;)

    even better is when the returd chases you trough half the map, to get that single kill , you kill your self and he is stuck in the middle of no where.. but even if you does kill you he is still in middle of nowhere and just lost valuable time running back or redeploying :p

    Lol, i guess people love doing stuff the hard way in PS2....

    or everyone is braindead...

    except that the mass majority use it to abuse other players to stop them winning a fight.Your role players an the odd lore addict aside, it has no real use. Hell on briggs NC are notorious for taking 1 hit an they jump out to run while deconstructing. or just suicide an decon....Saying it is needed for the odd role player is just grasping at straws, there's a multitude of ways to hide, ditch your atv. hell if your using a plane, you just nose dive it as you jump out. Point is, theres nothing that req's such a idiotic system.

    it has been ruining fights for last 6 months, an its about time SOE showed some backbone an got rid of it.

    I still fail to see the problem, he said that he logs out as infantry, and that he doesn't use vehicles... infantry die fast enough logging out cannot save you if someone truly intends to kill you, and even then, we all need to log off to deal with life... you're practically never out of combat, if they implemented log off timers, people would just force quit the game as a supplement to logging off, because it's inconvenient, and will result in deaths you shouldn't have counted against you (because you're not doing anything, just standing there, waiting out the timer).

    Grasping at straws? really?

    What logic is there for denying players like this

    THen you STILL HAVE THIS

    Seriously, grasping at straws? How about coming up with a real reason not to implement the xp grant solution rather than locking out all decons? The realism argument doesn't work, the xp argument gets solved, the suicide argument gets solved, the kill stat argument gets solved
    It makes far more sense to do what other games have done and implement the granting-xp-anyway solution. We need a SMARTER system for this, not hacking at problems with a doggone ax.
    Backbone? So it wouldn't be backbone solving by other methods?
    No one should be able to deny kill xp- and you just want to deal in absolutes?

    Granting full experience as if it was a kill for a deconstruct would solve the issue entirely, no need to disable it. The other griefing issue is suicide to deny a kill, granting full experience and kill rights would again solve that. That all said, it is good SOE are actively trying to address griefers, their is no excuse for poor sportsmanship.

    I only ever deconstructed once, which only happened because I thought I was alone and the attack happened after the countdown had started. The only combat suicides are from when I miss press my reload button in my Reaver and hit eject instead. :D

    Nope. I just logged off after a session and witnessed a couple vehicle deconstructs (one of them a Mosquito in mid-air).

    I'm guessing this would only apply if you still own the vehicle. If that's true, just make sure someone else takes ownership of the vehicle before you pull another one.

    Probably not too hard, since they're doing it, but apparently it's going to take long enough and deconstruct is being abused so much that they've decided it's better to simply remove deconstructing altogether until they finish implementing the timer.

    Logout really should have a timer, too, just like Redeploy.

    Props for being the first in this thread to not fall to the "get rid of decons NAO" mentality

    people on some servers must have really been suffering from this. i dont see it on waterson, but i do see suicide crashes
  18. Zapon


    can't give someone else full control until you spawn another vehicle- that's how it's currently done. So this would destroy handoffs to others via spawning another vehicle- and that's messed up.


    And why the timer over the xp solution?

    I really have to wonder, why are the flyboys the whiniest of the lot?

    Disposing of my Flash in enemy territory is going to be a pain now.
  20. Cl1mh4224rd

    Ah. Thanks. I guess I don't use vehicles enough to be aware of that. That does suck a bit...

    Dunno. It would need to expire, though. You can't have a situation where you pull a Flash, have an enemy sink a few bullets into it, get to your destination and deconstruct, granting that enemy a kill for the vehicle.
