    Kicked for inactivity......

    There seems to be something seriously wrong with the kick timer lately. I've been kicked so many times just for alt-tabbing for less then 10 seconds right when the loading screen ends to close google or reddit, (I like to read the forums and for honor reddit between matches.). happened 3 times tonight. This shizz is getting ridiculous. Why is the timer 15 minutes? Why should i have to waste 45 minutes because the AFK detector is garbage... This happen to anyone else? it seems its getting more frequent for me.

    I would suggest reading stuff on your smartphone between matches if you want to. You won't have this problem anymore.

    I did not encounter this problem yet. I think it is around 30 seconds.

    I'm alt-tabbed constantly in the minimum time I play to get the orders done, and I haven't been kicked for inactivity in a year or so now. It's like 20 seconds before the 10-second timer for a kick begins. Eventually you'll develop a feel for it.

    Pretty sure the game kicks you after 10 second at the start of the round.

    That’s intended as far as I’m aware.

    If you have problems holding it in for the rough 20 minutes finding and playing a match takes until you have a guaranteed minute + sync/load time. You should ask your doctor.

    I never get kicked for inactivity unless I intentionally want to be kicked for whatever reason. You can easily pee between deaths especially if executed, you got about an hour of wait time when match making so you could even make dinner during that time frame.

    I think people are over estimating the kick timer, I don't think alt-tab is magically getting you kicked. I have 3 monitors and play FH in windowed mode, I spend lots of time tabbed out sometimes and often its when a match starts, I have never gotten kicked unless I am straight up out of the room doing something else. IMO the kick timer is not strict enough.

    There is definitely a glitch out there. Last week I got booting for inactivity after about 8 seconds right after taking a zone. No warning no nothing. That was the first time in a year I was booted for inactivity. I play PS4

    But we are not talking about console, this thread is about PC as is seen in the OPs post

    Maybe I got a urge to piss during a game and before that maybe didn't went for a piss for an hour.You know I don't activate my blader as the game starts...Don't be smart if you are not.
