Vague Memory.2817 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Previously if a member of your team gets disconnected and then rejoins later, and your team loses you wouldn't lose points. Why did they change this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kako.1930 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you only lose points if they're disconnected for under 2 minutes. Any more and you don't lose any points as far as I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not using current "top player" formulas but something more robust) ... or is something like that just absurdly hard to do and mostly science-fiction at this point?

People know the inactivity and disconnect timers so what they do is AFK for X amount of time and comeback.The timer for both just shouldn't reset because they came back or did a skill when it said they have to.That said, the inactivity timer is too high as is.
