feeling that the game kicks player too fast (during match)

from Demigod Forums

I have the feeling that a connection problem which last only for a few seconds is enough to kick a player from the game. I've did some tests and it seems that something like a 5 second connection freeze is enough to kick a player. During my last 5 games nearly always 1 disconnected at least and as those were either guys from the winning team or happened when the game was even I don't think it was all quitting. If I am right, I'd like to see the time before someone is kicked increased to at least 15 seconds, I mean there is a reason that in most other games it usually happens after 45 seconds ;)

Havnt had this happen to me yet but if that's the case it sounds way too low yeah.

This has happened to me too. My internet did one of those VERY fast disconects or a quick freeze, and next thing I knew I was out the game :(

Thanks for the analysis.

I agree that the game might be kicking players to quickly: it happened to me several times...

45 seconds sounds good, fair.
