[oneandonlywolf]

i think u guys need to fix when u dc in ladder that u get kick really sux all the SS i lost and good exp cause of cs lag and stuff why we all get kicked u guys really need to find something out. to day i got dc all waiting on the floor i got kicked form i get on and i at the tree of life.

If your team pay attention, if u get kicked they can stop and wait for you.

^ that works in 50% of the cases - but sometimes the d/c doesn't show up immediately, and then you're still out of luck. +1 for this, it's so frustrating on top of all the other frustrations already -.-

well my team was all on floor 32 they notice before the mobs we dead all waited. i get back on and i at tree of life. so even why they do wait it sometime still kick you to the tree of life.

We've done the same I always notice and wait, but 99% of the time when someone on my party disconnects they get kicked out of the ladder which is what in my opinion needs to be fixed. It sucks for those who get dc and kicked out because they do indeed miss out on good exp and ss's.

whats more important question is, "Why should be KICKED OUT of ladder if we OREDI INSIDE of it" Rules to be exist since 1st place oredi BIG WRONG. so this is at the end just all jokes.... LoL~

You're only removed from ladder if you were the only one on the floor when disconnected. This is because once no one is on the floor, the floor ceases to exist- just like the dungeons. There are times when getting stuck in loading that you never reach the next floor. The game registers you as on the floor before, which would be empty and therefore no longer in existence.

I agree that it's not pleasant. But, there is no way to make the floors persistent so that you relog back to the floor you were already on, and there is no way to make it so you relog onto the same floor as your party if they moved on to the next due to the ability to abuse such a thing. It use to be possible to sometimes log back in on the floor you lost connection on when your party already moved on, which seemed to be a 50/50 chance, but we also had a lot of issues with parties being separated from each other on the way to the next floor (one party member would be all alone as if in a separate instance, while the other members were together on the same floor).

Best thing to do when you notice your connection isn't very stable, or there's excessive lag, is to have your party wait on the floor after the mobs are dead until the lag spike goes away (usually doesn't take long) or so you can relog (this helps, I've had to do it on several occasions). And on the days when it's really bad, ask a member of your party who isn't experiencing lag to stay behind on every floor until you've fully loaded, just in case there's a disconnection. There are no rewards for being at the top of the ladder ranks, so you're not losing anything by slowing down.

Those are very good suggestions and things that help a lot, if I go with my regular party even if we dc when our players come back on they would still be in ladder (due to a good system we have) but any other party, if you dc then tough luck. The problem is when you go with strangers that you don't know too well they won't bother waiting for you, yeah avoid these type of parties would be a solution, but sometimes it's better to go with that party then to solo it.
I know the technical difficulties about floors not existing anymore, but isn't it possible to say, bind a party member to the party leader and if the leader moves onto a new floor and they dc, they could connect back to where the party leader was. I don't know, rough weird idea, but I think something can be done about it

MemoryLane that dont work having your team wait when i got dc i was on Skype all were there waiting for me i reload the game i was at the tree of life. also think you can make a system so the lead will click advance party to next floor so it make every one go so less chance of being kicked or being left out.

I think the chances if getting back into the ladder after DCin are higher the faster you log in. There is serverwide lag that affects this game not just when you enter ladder. The best thing to do to try and not DC is relog your browser and refresh it. r2 needs a big computer tower to support tis game.
