If so, they need to lengthen it again. Seriously. I was playing a simple PVE dominion today, and got a text from a friend, so I parked on a zone to boost it and went to respond to it, and no joke, LESS THAN A MINUTE later, still typing my message, I was kicked for inactivity.
What the balls is the inactivity timer set to right now that I can't even finish typing 2 sentences in a message outside of the game before i get kicked for inactivity? That's right, I didn't even finish typing the second sentence in my message before the timer booted my ***.
Look, I understand cracking down on AFK farmers, but those sons of *****es use bots to keep their character running around or swinging their weapon to circumvent the timer. Lowering the timer isn't gonna do a damn thing to stop those guys.
You can find the details on the AFK timer here http://ubi.li/k8ggc. Right now, it's set for 45 sec (4v4) and 30 sec (1v1 and 2v2). We're looking at it right now following feedback around the community so if changes are made, we'll let you all know.
As someone who has seen people standing at the spawn point until they die and not spawning until, I am assuming, the time until automatic respawn ran out, I am fine with the afk timer as it is.
It is no feat of strength to just,maybe, walk around the zone you are boosting or keep your attention on the game 20 minutes.
I was boosting zone, and no one came to fight me.
Kicked out for inactivity. And that happening to me a lot now,
just because i know that dominion is not a deathwatch and you need
1k (preferable for the best result) before killing other team members.
And now. I have to push, doesn't matter which, buttons just to stay active.
Pretty sucks you get a penalty after. I'd call that frustration.
