|  | "convenient" disconnects « Thread Started on May 8, 2012, 4:52pm » | |
Has anyone else noticed a trend when you're winning/dominating a game, it's almost over, and all of a sudden the connection gets super choppy resulting in you getting a disconnect loss or network error? Are there people out there lame enough to somehow try to spike you off the game? 
I wouldn't suspect anything if it didn't consistently happen RIGHT BEFORE I win.

I haven't noticed this being consistent enough to report it to the board - I almost always chalk it up to people quitting when you're in control and I usually get the win. But I do have some games where I know I'll win, then the system slows down because I assume the other quit, but then I get a disconnect loss.
Any other inputs out there?

Did you play *edited out*? I rarely get network out of sync, but somehow I played him back to back and both times once I was winning I got network out of sync message.
I have played all day and then all of a sudden back to back against the same guy seems really fishy to me.

As soon as I popped out the winners last night, I got a network out of sync.
The timing was just too perfect to be chance.

I had something very similar happen yesterday too. Who knows if it's chance. I don't.

At first I thought it suspicious that I was getting Network out of sink error most mostly when I was winning. Then I realize that my 80% win rate accounted for it.

Does anybody have any idea how to generate an out-of-sinc error? I don't think it has been posted on this forum, and I'm afraid that we are most likely the cause of others abusing a bug as we post them here...
I would be very surprised if multiple individual players have discovered how to generate an out-of-sync error without the use of a forum like this. I think it's just random...

The eastern community use QQ to communicate, not this forum, and information is quickly disseminated among QQ groups.

One thing I've started getting recently is all these disconnects and then right after getting booted from Uplay, making my winnings worthless. And of course, its always when i'm winning.
Also, from my friends over at the console ACR(evelations) Multiplayer, they been getting some pretty bad connection issues with Uplay, causing random disconnects and horrible gameplay problems. So this is most likely a Uplay issue rather than a Recollection issue (although Revelations has its own set of crap problems)

I just got this "error". Played against an unnamed player who was losing. Then he lags out. Keeps starting the timer. After 2 minutes I get a loss and a disconnect. Now 2 things should happen here.
1) this is a bug that you can force a loss upon someone (and get the win?) 2) players should be reported to ubisoft. But where do you do that?
It was intentional. No doubt about it.

That's miserable, but there is no way to report it. I was playing someone a couple days ago and received a disconnect just as I was about to win. Made me wonder.

I know, in order to have any kind of matchmaking or ranking system, that there are plans to create a uplay matchmaking system in place of Apple's. At that time, they should be better able to track abuses.

I haven't encounter a scenario when I am about to win then a disconnect happens and loss yet but have certainly experienced instant disconnect and loss many times (10+ to a certain top 50 player) but I thought it's a server issue as I got some instant wins too.
