Cripplers Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Sounds strange. I haven't DCd in a long time but I don't ever remember needing to restart client unless it was an actual crash/freeze. DCs I recall always brought me straight to char select screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malastare Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 If you disconnect via network outage (most common cause: wireless router interruption), then the game forces a logout, and tries to reconnect to the master host to get a list of game servers. In most cases, your network connection is still not functioning at that point, so the game quits, as it no longer has an authenticated session active. The solution is simple: Get more reliable internet access. Of course, just because its simple doesn't mean that its easy to accomplish. A few times a month I'll get DCed because someone runs a crappy microwave for too long or starts up a phone hotspot or something and blasts wireless interference across the same channel I'm using. There isn't much to do about it. However, the behavior of the app is pretty much correct. Perhaps it would be nice if they dropped you back to a login screen, but that's only saving me a few seconds.
