I have been playing for the past few weekend and the other day I was playing and happened to run out of pistol side arms cuz ya know... I died a few extra times due to the way some of the spawn points and the spawn point loading works .. IE I died before I could move and while defending we only had one point in the game (we got dominated)..
Anyway, the point is all three of my 3/4 kits went "INVALID" and I couldn't launch. So I had to refit while in the game. Unfortunately its slow enough sometimes to refit and meanwhile I'm getting yelled at "You must deploy to the battlefield." stuff for people who just sit afk and don't re-deploy.
Personally I don't think you should get kicked because none of your kits were "base only" so you tried to buy weapons and restock while in combat or tried to update your kit for the above mentioned "invalid" kit issue.
On that note, once I did have my kits all done up. I couldn't even select one of our THREE points we had taken back. I had no option to deploy and I got afk kicked 30 seconds later (and no sp for my 15 minutes in game) because of the kick..

The other issue I noticed about AFK was that its cumulative. I had to afk for a few min to get my phone I left in the other room, I get a warning.. deploy.. die, deoploy die.. went to drink my coffee before I re-deplyed again and I got booted for being AFK... I tell you, it was annoying. I think this should be re-worked so you can eather earn afk time back based on how long your alive or what not...

According to the readouts ingame, "You can always use the basic gear to re-deploy" it says or something of that kind. I figure that the ability to change the basic suit layouts is some kind of bug, and I've set all 3 of my basic suits to nothing but default options, while making my 4th + into the ones with printed gear attached.
As for earning AFK time back, that is usually what most games do, so I assume Dust will get some kind of tolerance improvements too. |

happens to me as well usually when I do well in the game, it only took twice for me to learn not to do that anymore. They should give more time. |

One of the woes here is menu screens being unresponsive. You'll be happy to know they got some love in teh upcoming build and should manage themselves a lot smoother.
The other issue about the warnings being cumulative IMO... is proper. A game only takes like 15 minutes. If you're not going to sit and play it the whole way through because you've got stuff to do, just do it before the game. Don't try to juggle. Your teammates probably won't appreciate it very much if half of the match is you semi-afk at the spawn screen and you're taking up a slot that could be filled by someone who would be playing the whole thing. Everyone does have to do some stuff sometimes, and I get that. But there is like a two-three minute delay before it kicks you, so you have plenty of time to quickly answer the phone or grab your coffee and bring into the gaming room. |

I thought they were going to make it a feature by having you win at Slay before you could respawn. |
