    The 2:30 time, and disable the penalty for disconnects...

     

    Purely speaking from one who plays with friends, and who know's nothing but a poor connection is occuring...I'd like to be able to finish the game with my friends, heck, even after 5 disconnects...no issues, we (the team) are invested into the game...so...give us the option to by[pass the 3 disconnect thing...

     

    Let we who are playing decide...

    And:

    Give us all a "suggest to drop" like in MP...so if one of my buddies is having an issue staying online, let us the players decide the match, and if we'd like to contunue. drop it, etc.

    AFAIK there is no disconnect penalty in A/S - it was dropped a few weeks after introduction.

    Concerning the dropping suggestion, I'm not sure if this would not count as a disconnection, as well as a hole or game concede in Matchplay.

    Concerning the disabling of the timer,

    a) it has been rejected by a mod IIRC,

    b) it's against the no-options doctrine,

    c) it complicates the code - beware of new faults.

    After 3 disconnects, that team has lost...I'd like to bypass that...we knock it out for 8 holes, tight match, get the 3rd disconnect...game gone.

    In MP we can "suggest to drop match"..

     

    If both parties agree, it's like it never happened...seems that is "written" somewhere, and could be implemented in AS as well.

    He's not referencing the disconnect %-this is a friends finishing the game thing.
