Effects of resigning in combat

Vanye Dendarii Pedestrian Renegade Group: Members Posts: 21 Joined: Nov 21, 2009 I'm confused about resignation in combat. I assumed that resigning from an event, whether voluntary by the player or imposed by the character/vehicle damage, meant that characters would be out of it. But that doesn't seem to be the case: twice now I've had vehicles resigned automatically, and though they are then out of my control and sit there doing nothing, the other vehicles still fire on them occasionally and the characters are reported as taking damage. The same thing happened the one time I resigned voluntarily. So if this is the case, what's the point of resigning? I thought it was a way to prevent further injury at the cost of forfeiting a chance of participation in victory, but unless I'm misreading things injury is still possible. ......................... vet Posted Nov 27, 2009, 3:00 pm

You are still in full control of car and pedestrians. But remember, just because you give up, wont mean everyone will "honor" that, but those who don't are few indeed, and looked down upon. ......................... vet wv zom gateautumn deathrceL1 elmsautumn pvp1 pvp2 sssc raceL1 e2g combatL1 santa1 pvp3 gwextrav ww circuit32,18,0 Posted Nov 27, 2009, 3:05 pm

Vanye Dendarii Pedestrian Renegade Group: Members Posts: 21 Joined: Nov 21, 2009 Ah, thanks. So even NPCs will sometimes disregard resignations, that's good to know. I hadn't unassigned gunners, so I guess that may have had an effect too? ......................... vet Posted Nov 27, 2009, 3:16 pm

Ah, I wasn't clear, from what I know, you are fine unless you keep shooting, but taking the targeting of never hurts. ......................... vet wv zom gateautumn deathrceL1 elmsautumn pvp1 pvp2 sssc raceL1 e2g combatL1 santa1 pvp3 gwextrav ww circuit32,18,0 Posted Nov 27, 2009, 3:31 pm

The risk factor versus payoffs is just too imbalanced as opposed to solo scouting. I have to agree. While it's a good starting point to learn solo dogfighting tactics (when you learn NOT to rush in), if you nuff it, you still risk the redding. ......................... vet wv zom Posted Nov 29, 2009, 12:40 pm
