Malist Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Sitting in queue right now after crashing mid-fight. Adding in the 5min grace period after discon would be greatly appreciated - thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyantheSith Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Error 9000. First one. 600 in que. How hard is it to code in a grace period after disconnect? I mean really? Oh and whoever though RP-PVP servers wouldnt be popular at Bioware should be fired. We need at least 2 more on each coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kashaan Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I agree that a D/C forgiveness would be nice, but that would only cause more queue problems. People need to think in terms of actions and consequences. The easy way to prevent this problem is paying for a decent ISP. It's not really BWs fault if your ISP or your computer suck.

deadreign Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Totally agree, twice this has happened to me the middle of a 4 man instance. yesterday 600 queue today 1700 queue. my net dropped for literally 30 seconds and put in a queue. grace period is mandatory for todays games pretty disappointed that it doesnt exist already. definately needs to be put in. ive had my game crash randomly and i was able to get straight back in but after a disconnect nothing. why is it so many other games have this available but not swtor. for a game thats been worked on for so long they missed an important part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abrasion Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Holy freaking ****, how is this not implemented? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mamono Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 This really need a fix. Waiting for 4 hours and getting DC'd (for not being able to play any more this day because of queue time) does really **** up your enjoyment of the game :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypernetic Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I made a thread about this the other day in customer support but it was locked and I was linked here. Anyway, this really needs to be implemented NOW. Frustrations like this are the kinds of things that cause people not to renew after the first 30 days.

GhoXen Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I was just in Taral V and my game crashed. Now I'm sitting in a 2 hour queue. Waiting for long queues is fully expected and completely fine with me, but without a grace period of some sort it's very much ruining my experience.

PJMosling Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Agree with the OP. I feel bad for anyone who disconnects or has their client crash and then catches the tail end of a 600 person queue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rytick Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I don't have the most stable connection due to my area. I've gotten down to literally 20,30-40 people in line(out of 800) and had my connection drop.. which leaves me "Locked out" until my account drops from the previous queue, and then back to square 1 at 800. Really annoying. If nothings done I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kashaan Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) You could have a generally reliable ISP and still have connection issues to a game server. Not really. If you have a reliable ISP, you disconnect extremely rarely. Not to mention the fact that where I live only ONE isp is available if you wish to have broadband. Not BW's problem. That being said, I would not be against the idea. However, people have to realize that if this is implemented, queue times increase even more than they are now. So there will be just as much QQ and threats to quit. You're just trading one wait for another. Edited December 18, 2011 by Kashaan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angeredsoul Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 definitely need this implemented ASAP. the queues on swiftsure are madness. Drank 16 beers before getting into play the game the other day....zzzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crashing and being able to play again. Vs waiting 1 hour to log in, crashing, Then waiting another hour to log in, crashing, then another. etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're just trading one wait for another. I'm fine with waiting 3 hours before I start a flashpoint run, I'm not fine with waiting even 20 minutes in the middle of the run if I crash or DC. My ISP is superb, my computer is top-notch, but the game isn't glitch-free yet and my entire group just had a crash in Taral V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollowpoynt Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Can't believe there hasn't been a developer post on this. They are taking the issue "seriously", but they can't figure out what solutions to implement. This is a great idea; with the way things are currently, you might as well call this a single player game. "Group at your own risk" At least people are replaceable by companions.

Fooki Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Agreed.. had to relog due to getting stuck in a WZ load screen(for the second time now) and there is now a 550+ queue.. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Eternal- Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Could we please have some type of grace period to log back in after a disconnect? Had issues both in guild and in groups, if someone would disconnect for a minute they'd have to sit in a 15-20 minute que to get back in and finish the flash point or whatever they're working on. No doubt. I've been unable to play all day. Everytime I get on, there is some glitch keeping me from playing which requires a crash. Then right back in the hour plus que I go. Our guild has attempted to instance but each time one or two gets kicked before the instance can begin. This game has been a disaster so far for me.

Dezziedc Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) As the guild and I have just been discussing in our own forums, given the long Q times, people aren't logging out. So the wait time gets longer and longer and longer. Once you drop, you may as well give up. My Q time currently says 1hr 35mins. I have been waiting almost 3hrs already and I am still at number 475 - so the wait times are nowhere near accurate. The long wait times are causing people who are already in game to find ways to stay in the game while they are afk. It just means the Q's get longer and longer. The DC and server login errors/issues are just adding to this problem. Edited December 18, 2011 by Dezziedc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaGicBush Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) Damnit ***, just waited for a bit and said "server connection problem" and restarted my queue...
