[Feature Request] Please remove or increase the high latency kick feature.
New, NormalPublic

Description

I'm new to DayZ and I love this game so far but this feature nearly renders the game unplayable for me and I'm sure alot of others. I live in a bad area so I get lag spikes from time to time so while playing I'll get kicked every 10 minutes or so which has caused me to get knocked out twice and killed once. It's very frustrating to survive for hours and gather loads of gear only for you to run into someone and get kicked at the wrong time and lose all of the progress for something that wasn't even your fault.

All 3 of my friends that play DayZ also get occasional lag spike which just kicks them immediately.
Ain't no fun when they have to sit in the queue just in hopes not to get kicked again.

So I'm all for this, kicks needs to be more forgiving if possible.

At least give us warnings in the chat when our ping is too high, or let us have ping indicator on the top left or right. Thanks in advance.

Yeah exactly, I just want to be able to play the game I paid for. I was hesitant to refund it because of how fun it was besides the constant kicks.
