Disable Unit/Resource Loss Until Bugs are fixed

[SysOpPsyche]

Honestly, I actually got into a PvP match today instead instantly going out of sync. Personally, I figured I was going to lose - army was Goblin raiders mostly with a few Berserkers, Ogres, and wargs as well as some archers. My opponent had all Archers (grandmasters I think) and it was obvious from their health and damage that they were level 10's, all mine were 5's.

Anyhow, I wade thru a group of NPC's in between our 2 armies (army vs army - no objective) and my forward wave (for some reason I could select all my units) has reached his army (and was in melee range of his forward elements, with my Ogre units set to rush into the midst of his big blob of archers while they busy picking off my numerous goblin raiders, which to my surprise weren't dieing that fast) then all of sudden 'Out of Sync'.

I seriously doubt he bailed and I didn't. Personally with how fast units are generated, I'm guessing any thoughts of your opponents Alt+F4ing just because they are losing at the moment is really just wishful thinking on your part. Either way, the game definately has problems.

After looking through these forums, I'm actually wondering when the SP will actually start working because the community I've seen on these forums makes my Orcs look 'Pretty'.

Yeah looks like they're implementing it in the next patch to keep this from happening. Ironically losing an army isn't the "end of the world" in dof. I've lost a few already...you just go out and buy lvl5 units and get after it..

They need to figure out someway to only punish the person who loses the connection, not both parties.

I don't have a huge amount of time to dedicate to playing games, and those 8 units basically negate my entire play time yesterday. That is not acceptable.


At least make it so that out of synch or disconnects result in no unit loss.

Our fight went OOS too, right?


My worry is that a lot of fights go OOS even though neither party alt+f4's. About half of my OOS battles I see the guy in system chat immediately after.

when that happens it means the battles went OOS. In the same time though it's hard to say since different people don't necessary join the chat.I just hope they manage to fix the OOS once and for all though.
