New DF Punishment Timer

[Pr0c3ss0r]

Ok so if you can't carry players, you're bad, got it.

DF isnt for you in that case, touché.

[madolyn]

Or anyone that doesn't complain about this is a bad player that wants better players to carry them.

yeah, ok. i'll take your word as experience, lol.

Who cares? The Party Finder is a thing now.

[Parodine]

They also added some sort of 'Party Finder' option to the Social List menu. As much as housing prices have burned me this patch, that is an excellent addition to the game. This will allow people to post 'Looking For_____' groups with ilvl recommendation, newcomer welcome/additional comments for various trials and dungeons. Hopefully this will allow people an expedited way of finding groups that are closer to their expectations and avoid some (not all of course) of the random DF trouble of before.

So 30 minutes now as punishment for leaving an instance. Bad group/failgroup/harassing members (with no vote kick option available, lets say its been used up for the day with its limited use) Griefing/AFK-ing (i know they will be kicked in 10 minutes but there are way around this you all know). And the player is punished for 30 minutes.

Just sit down (in game, don't actually get in combat) and start typing bad jokes in party chat until the party vote kicks YOU.

I'm ok with it. I've had far fewer fail groups recently than early on. If I have to leave an instance i'll just do something else for 30 min, no biggy.

Hurray for cherry picking!

Did you miss the part where it says there will be a vote to leave the instance where no one will receive a penalty? If things go bad and everyone agrees, you can initiate a /quit.

That only on next patch.

Awesome change I agree with 30 mins. Also the vote to kick will be available too.

One simple solution: Don't use DF if you don't want to get in situations like that.

It'll be easy enough to find a party considering the new party search feature.
