Hardcore needs a timer to log out
|
Let's be real: it's so cheesy that people have macros bound to auto-logout from the game when they get stuck in a sticky situation.
It kind of dilutes the whole idea of the hardcore experience that you can click a button and safely go back to town, granted you are swift enough. A three-second logout timer would dissuade people from going balls-deep with their hardcore characters and be more careful about their approach to a situation if they know they don't have an EVAC button. You can disagree and I expect you to - especially if hardcore is your go-to game mode, but it won't change the fact that an instant logout option keeps the game from being truly hardcore. Thanks for your time. Last edited by DuALsTRIKE#0089 on Nov 25, 2019, 9:16:25 PM Last bumped on Nov 27, 2019, 11:45:17 AM

I second this.
Hardcore with insta-logout is not so much hardcore as it seems. 10 sec logout time will be fine for insecure areas and insta-logout for towns and hideouts. And yes - i'm a hardcore player myself. |

play hardcore the way intented not with cheats. "Parade your victories, hide your defeats. Mortals are so insecure."
Once you break the cycle of fear no angels or demons can whisper you their sweet nothing words. poe0.2/10. Nuff said. |

" +1, I always thought this is just stupid, why would HC players be allowed to do this kind of cheating. There should be at least 5-10 sec, log out timer. |

But even softcore players have this option, if they want to avoid death penalty :P.
GGG thank you for all the great things you are doing. You have combined every element of all other great Rpg's and joined them together as one Diamond, that will shine Forever.
This is coming straight from the heart <3 |

" so what? are you trying to defend this cheat on a mode where you shouldnt die? "softcore" as you called it, there's no point in using logout macros maybe for the .1% of the players. "Parade your victories, hide your defeats. Mortals are so insecure."

" I am not defending anything, because i never used logout macro and just accepted my faith when playing Hardcore. I just said it is an option for SC as well.

HC player do not only have to face dangerous monsters. Some of their biggest problems are lag spikes, freezes, frame drops and random disconnects.
My HC character had more dangerous situations from this kind, than from monsters. A three second timer had killed me several times in this case. "The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried." - Stephen McCranie

" No excuses... 30 seconds timer to logout when in combat now!!! "There's no thing like random one-shots in this game. You only die because you take 353,456,237 hits in 0.2 seconds."
"The best items in the game should not be crafted, they should be TRADED." - Cent, GGG |

I don't play HC so I really can't weigh in on if the delay is a good idea, I just want to add that it would be easier to implement if instead you could only log out from towns / hideouts.
That way if someone had a real life situation demanding their attention, they could still portal to safety and then immediately log out, rather than be forced to wait around for some amount of time. |
