varietasplus Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 People already throwing after losing first round in SR. Typing /stuck should be a day-long queue ban for SR and an hour lockout from any other group activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colbymattice Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Well this is a late response but true that. I really really DISLIKE quitters. It sucks being on a team that loses the 1st round and the suicides the next round and loses it for you. It's even WORSE when they quit earlier. I've been on teams that don't even wait the long to quit. They just suicide after looking at the other team. 3 vs 4? Suicide low IR? Suicide. Unbalanced roles? Suicide. Some of my teams gave up before the fight even started. And they should be penalized!!!!! How do you know if it's a lose without trying? YOU DON'T! Just a little effort and maybe we could have won. Quitting is a certain loss. We should at least put up a fight. I NEVER ever suicided in a match before and I never will. If I'm gonna lose, I'll at least make them work for it. I'm not gonna give away free wins if they don't work for it. Win or lose, I'll do my best and give them some resistance. Because this is PvP, even the worst player should do better than a NPC or a training dummy. So, against me, wins are not a hand out . The other team should have to earn their wins I hate quitters even more than I hate losers. Given the choice, I'd take a less talented player who tries over the best player who gives up. Because a team is more than just 1 man. It's a contribution from everyone. We are only as strong as our weaknest links so if 1 man quits, we all suffer. That's why you don't see anyone winning 1 vs 4. A team needs everyone to do their part. So, if anyone gives up we all lose because of his decision. So, I agree with you. Players that use the Suicide command need to be punished. They absolutely need a no-que time I'd kick them for a day to a week depending on how early they quit. And this goes for all of their characters. An entire legacy que block. And like you said, don't let them play anything else on groupfinder either. A time out is only the start of a fitting punishment. Id also implemente a depletion on credits and Valor rank. Sadly quitters aren't punished enough. So, that's just my opinion on the matter. I agree that players should be punished for suicide in pvp. But again, it's not our decision so we can't do much about it. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion that is both way too harsh and not easy to implement. I've been in matches where I got literally stuck in a rock because of a force push. The opposing team could not attack me and I could do nothing to them. In the end I was the only one left on my team. Should I have waited for the timer to run out and waste everyone's time? No, I /stuck it to move things along. This is not easily distinguished from a "quitter stuck", so I'd be locked out of any group content in an MMO for a week, plus a depletion of credits and valor? It would just not be a good way to go about this, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colbymattice Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Well, maybe not those exact numbers. We can tone it down a bit. But I don't think there should be no punishment. "/stuck" is not something players should rely on just to move to the next match. If you're actually stuck, type it. But if you just want to die, the kill command should not be abused. So, I do believe we should do something more than the current punishment. So, I still stand by updating the punishment but, realistically my original words may be a bit excessive. So, we should at least work on something. But maybe if they adjusted that command in PvP to how it's like on planets. If /stuck just moved you somewhere else like how it normally does, that could help people that are actually stuck. That's how it usually works when you're not in combat. But in combat it kills you. So, perhaps if they got rid of the self-killing mechanism and made it something that actually unstucks you, that might be better. The only problem is the part where it autokills your player. That's what is overused in PvP. The point is to actually fight other players, not /stuck and kill yourself. Players should actually have to fight. Of course, this is easier said than done but it's a problem that should be addressed. It'd be better to do something about quitters trying to avoid fighting. For example, if /stuck moved you to the spawn, then you wouldn't be stuck but, that could be bad because it can be used to run away. But another example could be moving the player to their last location before they got stuck. Unstucking a player could be done without death.

DougTheNoob Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 If one dont want to fight for any reason,why cant they stuck? I mean,ppl that stuck would probably just not fight at all,and let the other group kill em anyway. Theres nothing we can do about it . And I kinda understand some ppl who stuck in pvp when they get a group of really undergeared players or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeTacoCat Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 This is a dumb suggestion. Often times in arenas you get matched against a premade with 3 undergeared people who have absolutely no idea what they’re doing. I think it’s totally reasonable for me to just stuck that match (or at least stuck the second round after getting slaughtered in round one).

KumbayaGOD Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 well if this guy want to suicide , even they remove /stuck , they just stay there doing nothing , so its the same basically, because he lost the willing to fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundown Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I guess you are just solving the wrong problem if you want to punish people for leaving or stucking. This is a game, if one does not enjoy it, they should be allowed to leave no matter what. After all the single legit way of enforcing at least a little etiquette was to add proper admin overwatch, but since this costs money it will not happen. So split queues and remove all punishment as least invasive action. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegaMist Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Just wondering, is there a technical reason /stuck has to result in suicide rather than just "unstuck" one if they are legitimately "stuck"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because, obviously, it would be used improperly by certain exploit-prone type players within certain WZ/Arena circumstances.

Bullyabass Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Its an edge case but I was watching a match where there was some beef going on between some of the players, once one side had killed all but one of the other team they left the last person (who had no idea what was going on) alive so they could flag and emote on the people they'd killed Once the the person they had left alive worked out what was going on they had to stuck to stop the match So there needs to be some way of ending a match that has gone toxic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all it did was unstuck you in case you got legitimately stuck (which happened to me more than once in warzones - fortunately so far, not in arenas), and did nothing if you're not, there wouldn't be much room to exploit it. I'm assuming there is a technical limitation - as someone who messaged me privately pointed out "if actually /unstuck was possible, it would exist".

Not sure who is PM'ing you but they are incorrect. The /stuck command used to work to re-locate ( same way it does in open-world outside of WZ's ) , so there certainly isn't any supposed "technical limitation" . BioWare has adjusted the command for WZ's at various points over the years, to where we are now.

Being moved "5 meters" would definitely be a better experience vs suicide we have now as long as it worked properly meaning a) moving you slightly would actually get you unstuck (vs the bug some in those threads described), b) it would not work on stuns, and c) it would move you to the med center if you were thrown off the bridge in Voidstar and rather than being killed, as you are supposed to in that case, you landed in full health and climbing the walls is not an option.

It's not so much of a difference if it's 1 on 4 or 1 on 1, either way, you should try your best. Being outnumbered isn't a good enough reason to give up. If I lose, then a lose but at least I went down fighting. And it wouldn't be that much of a time loss either. Maybe I would get killed in seconds but you don't know until you try and maybe winning is still possible by some miracle. Winning is always possible, so it may be unlikely but not impossible. So, I'm not saying that you're wrong, you may think what you want. But that's a losing mentality. "Don't judge a book by its cover".

It might just be better to leave this command because if the players are afk, then they might as well be dead. So, I understand that stucking is less bad than not playing but playing would be the best option. But in theory, they could implement some kind of afk timer. Gsf has one that's ok, so it could be something like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
