some sort of disconnect hack upon dying and/or switching ships by enemy team

Basically had a perfect game going, 750 vs 100 something with all 3 beacons captured. Then I noticed my teammates just not showing up anywhere in the game. Slowly enemies start taking beacons. Then I die, and after respawning and switching ship I lose connection to the game. I’m unable to reconnect until the very end when we lose. Emphasis on this part - the rejoin battle feature tries and fails 3 times. 

 

I don’t know what this is but it’s way too coincidental to just be a random disconnect issue. How do you lose the game when the score is 750 vs 100 something and you have all 3 beacons captured? 

 

Even if one of our guys disconnects, it’s still very unlikely that we lose given how far ahead we were.

 

If an approximately equal number disconnect from each team, the team holding more beacons should clearly win, so it wasn’t a server issue.

 

So somehow only my teammates disconnected and everyone on the enemy team remained in the game. Seems very fishy. 

 

 

I have a very good internet connection, ethernet cable directly hooked up and 1-2ms ping to any U.S. server, and I’ve only ever disconnected one in the past 700+ games (since I started playing again in January). Also that one time the rejoin battle feature worked just fine.

mhm… over 18 seconds you lost all the packets. If this wasn’t a network problem, it was surely some disconnecting hosts illegal a. of some sort. Clearly it took you three tries, at which the last one worked, you were about 1 minute out of the battle. The rest of the battle seemed fine. Also for devs and skula, this info is at 02:15:52.942 to 02:21:44.491, where he reconnected into the battle.
