WHAAAT!?! "No active players remain"

[Patriot03]

I just had a great match with bombs deployed and 3 kills in my F-84, I'm out of fuel so I land to rearm and immediately take off with my eye on the enemy Mig-15 with 15 minutes left in the match, as I'm rotating to take off the game declares no active allies on my team and ends the match that I was destined to win.


What in the world is that?


A system to prevent airfield camping is fine, but it needs to be reasonable enough to allow for a player to land, rearm, and take off again. Whatever is in place right now is way too aggressive.

My post could've been more clear, the game declared my own team to have no active players despite the fact that I was active and taking off after having just landed to rearm.

For even more context I was landing right after getting another kill as a fighter followed me to my airfield when I had like 40 seconds of fuel left, so I'm assuming the game thought I was loitering around my airfield even before landing (Which wasn't really true, but I did just have to engage an enemy fighter near by) so it may have started a timer before I even landed which may have influenced the overzealous outcome.


Basically the game thought I was hiding in my own airfield, but I wasn't.

I went back to land because I was low on fuel, briefly defended myself from a pursuing fighter, landed, rearmed without delay and took off. As I was rotating my wheels off the ground the game automatically declared that I was inactive and swiftly drained my team's points to zero by the time I was 50 feet above the runway having taken off..

Yeah, when it’s 1v1 or anything where you’re the only player left on your team, you basically can’t land or your team loses. There’s a grace period, but it isn’t long enough to get back off the ground.

This happened to me again today

People who land at the airfield are considered 'in-active' if they are on the run way for a certain amount of time, therefore the game ends if you are the last player.

It's a bit ♥♥♥♥ really but it's to stop people just sitting on the airfield allowing air defence to thin the herd.

Right, the problem is it literally doesn't give you time to simply land and take off again.

might of been a glitch or if i can ask at any point did u "die" but were able to land and repaire couse that might also cause it couse the game counts ur deaths in the match but u are still livible. Had that happen once i lost wing and was labed as dead but limped my way home and was bakc in match

*meanwhile it takes 5 minutes for the game to consider you have no active players in your team in a 1v5 situation when you J out at airfield*

It's certainly related to the recent updates because I never had it happen before either, but now it's happened twice within 24 hours.
