well just played a 3v3 against mczomg blitzkreig529 or something and undeadphantom and game was basically over we were just about to give them the timer when boom me and nated0g kicked and left one remaining player: slowzo irrelevant if we win this is really bad sportsman ship and they did not say any thing before we were kicked. thoughts plz........

they did that again?

these guys have been doing this repeatably.

one of them lags a lot, sometimes out of no where, causing your team to get a vote kick due to it cycling members, then they boot you.

You are responsible for your connection.  While kicking maybe frowned upon, it's certainly not against the rules.

dash these same three people have done this more then once, and hte lag is on THEIR Side of the game every time.

the lag usually starts when they are losing, not before.

It's nothing I can fix or police.  It's Relic's issue and they have to deal with it.  My advice is for you to kick them next time it happens.  Same thing with the desync at the end of games that AmPM mentioned.  Players are able to do both these things in vCOH so they can do them here too...

actually you can police it, you can ban them from the modification if they keep doing it.

ha heres the kicker.  I told them i was leaving for work and then didn't move anything for awhile.  then the game played fine and they brought up mortars to clear my hmgs.  as soon as i started to howie them, the game started to lag again.  seems evidence enough for me.

save the replay, people who do this shit need to gtfo of this community.

we can't police it because we can't see who we are playing against, anyone playing against them should vote kick them instantly.

So, it ended with them spamming 100's of letters untill somehow they kicked me.  Heres the replay.  Keep in mind that when they dropped my allies it was almost 45 min until they dropped me.

needs to be a rule in place and consequences for abuse of things like this.

saying it is doable in Vcoh there fore its doable here doesn't bode well.

Any kid and his friend could do this over and over under that pretense , and if nothing is done it could drive away potential players.

Doesn't lag make howies more effective?

Also, your 'proof' is seriously lacking.  To me it looks like its possibly a witch hunt, which is worse than the outcome you guys are trying to achieve.

witch hunts are bad yes, but what if its a repeat offense with more then 1 person attesting to having seen it in the past?

Always err on the side of caution of course, but... hmm

Seriously if they don't want us to see who we are playing I feel like there should be some policing.

If there are people that develop a reputation as poor sports, or abusers of the system, why should I have to play against them. If I could see who they were I would at least have the option to avoid them.

Almost every game of EiR I have played since I began back in June has had the option to kick SOMEONE, I never do it because I think it ruins the enjoyment of the game. I really don't like the new dev attitude towards this and other poor sportsmanship. This whole "to bad, your problem" stance irritates me and from what I see a good deal of the player base.

It really doesn't matter how much Vet Units had died. If there had been strange lag that hadn't been there during the start that just suddenly shows up at the end espeically when one side is losing or about to lose, it does tend to make the side that was most likely to win should have a right to be suspious of you.

oh without a doubt it looks bad, but does a 42% win look like hacks?
and for the people saying that blitz is a drop hacker...
