What happens if the party leader disconnects?

TL;DRA disconnected party leader stays in the party and remains leader for five minutes before being kicked, so the party technically can't invite anyone during that time, and then leadership passes to the next player.

Okay, so when the party leader disconnects, he'll be kicked out of the party, and the party leader will be transferred to the next player.

No, no, no. Those five minutes when he's not yet kicked out: is he still the leader?

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

It's 12 noon, and I'm the party leader, and I get disconnected. Up until 12:05, am I still in the party?

Ken AhnAssociate Gameplay Engineer

Yes.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

Okay, so I'm not removed from the group for those five minutes?

Ken AhnAssociate Gameplay Engineer

No.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

For those five minutes, am I still the party leader?

Ken AhnAssociate Gameplay Engineer

Yes.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

Even though I'm not online?

Ken AhnAssociate Gameplay Engineer

Yes. As long as you're in the party, you preserve your role. When you get kicked out of your party, that's a different story.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

So for those five minutes, you'll have a party that can't actually invite anybody else to the party?

Ken AhnAssociate Gameplay Engineer

Technically, yes.
