Location save on quitting game/DC.

Just don't play when everyone else is on. I find playing between 3 and 10AM (GMT+10) I'll get tons of drop outs but playing between 2PM to 12AM will result in pretty much no drop outs at all.

This games problems with regards to server capacity happens most at times that don't affect us aussies so we get some benefit even without having our own servers.

Playing at odd hours isn't an option for everyone. The OP isn't asking for player suggestions on how to not get DC'd, he's suggesting a feature that will make getting DC'd less inconvenient.

Yeah exacly, also don't forget that it's not only about disconnects but also about a freedom to quit when i want/have to without a need to play the same content again just because i can't start where i left off.

Then this game isn't for you.

That's stupid what you said. It's great for me and I'm totally hooked. I just think it would be much more convienent for some people. Just because i would change some aspects of this game doesn't mean i don't enjoy the rest of it. It doesn't break the game for me and its in no way such a big factor that would make me stop playing it. I just voice my opinion since this is suggestion forum. If many people agree with me (and i see some people do agree) then it is needed funcionality of the game for some of us and it's up to devs to determine whethere they agree with what we think or not, not for you to say such a thing. You wrote it like this is how it's supposed to be and nothing will change. You're not a developer of this game so don't state such baseless things please.

I'd widen the request -- make locations last longer. It's quite an often sight in Act 3 when you've been to the area (say, Sarn Slums), then enter a multi-levelled location (say, Crematorium), exit to the encampment, get a SP, meditate a bit on the skills tree, do some trading... and find that:
a) You were too slow and your portal is gone. Back to the waypoint and entrance searching, minus cleared base level and 1-2-3 instance levels.
b) You were quick enoug to get through to your portal and finish the instance. On the way back you find previous levels reset.
c) You were quick enough to clear the final level, complete quest, trade amd level up -- all in "8-15 minutes" ©, returned through the maze... to find that the basic level (Slums for this matter) is reset even if you cleared it out already. Since you have to find your way further into the city, you've got to clear it anew.

This is:
a) Quite annoying. Instead of just playing the game I must watch how long do I venture inside a location. Or re-visit locations after portalling (through waypoint if one is available).
b) Leading to over-levelling since I have to clear the same location twice or thrice.
c) Easily avoidable by setting level reset to 60-120 minutes. And it solves disconnetion problems TS has.

And resetting levels can be done like one in, say, Hellgate Global -- by the interface action.

Nicholas, I've noticed far too many people posting this kind of thing in response to a suggestion. If you don't feel that you would benefit from a suggested change, then ignore it and move on. Your above comment adds nothing to the discussion and will serve to push people away from the game.
Shame on you.

If he thinks he knows best about everything and others are not entitled to their opinions/suggestions then i think this forums aren't for him :)

Bump.... because I think we need it to be seen and implemented!

Lol i just got disconnected after getting to town (with portal) from level 3 Lunaris. Not only progress but even wasting portal! Ok portal wasn't that important... And i was already on the flour that is supposed to have waypoint....

saving location on dc/quit... (first one more so because its unvolontary, but second one can be too) is needed immediately!
