Now I think we’ve all experienced some anger when your about to kill someone and they combat log, expetionally if that person angered you and killing them would relieve the stress they put you under.
Proposition
What I propose is a confirm button when your about to leave the game in combat, on top of that, you would have to wait around 2-5 seconds for the button to be available.
This would not only allow people like those described above to be able to take their anger out but it would force combat loggers to be more strategic ;furthermore, gameplay becomes more fun.
You do know the idea behind combat logging is leaving the game in combat right?
Obviously you can’t stop that, at best you can raise the consequences. What’s even the point of that menu anyway, if anything it’s just waiting to leave combat but way shorter
idc if people combat log to be honest
i just want it so when you combat log it displays the last player that hit them so everyone near (or make it server-wide) can see how cowardly you are in PvP
I mean theres no real need to change anything as is
at most you could copy starscape’s approach for wild and unsecure space:
your “ship” would remain in the spot you logged at for like a minute
with an option to do a “safe logout” that immediately boots you
but again theres no need to do this
more severe combat logging penalties really only need to exist in games where death matters (like rogue or starscape)
First part of the first season is basically ‘‘hey check out this cool game. it’s fun right? oh and if you die here the device kills you and there’s no exit. you’re trapped here. if someone disconnects you from the device you will also die. now complete the game without dying and you’ll survive’’
Unfortunately, somebody rigged the game to instead just spawn you in an Arcane Reborn dungeon at level 1.
Unfortunately, Arcane Reborn doesn’t have VR support, so you get to wait until your actual body starves or somebody lures an NPC to you to put you out of your misery.
As you get ready to leave the game and break free from the curse by leaving the game, you’ve leveled to level 41 from the fight and a level 300 one shots you with a legendary weapon.
Or better yet, right before you leave, now with the tons of XP instant leveling you to near max.
An NPC shoots you with a magic spell in the same moment you leave the game, causing you to combat log…
Unfortunately, combat logging counts as a death.
