Guild Wars 2

Alright, I’ve been getting EXTREMELY upset lately with how this game handles disconnected players.

It’s very simple: After disconnecting, your character should remain in the game for another few minutes, to give you a chance to reconnect, and resume exactly where you left off.

I’m sick of being disconnected during these huge living story events, and either losing my overflow, or logging back JUST in time to miss out on the end of the event.

For example, I did roughly 44 minutes of the event, which was set to end in failure… but we did our best, and there’s still a reward, not to mention credit for Vorpps quest.

NOPE. At around 30 seconds to the events end, my game disconnected me. I immediately logged back in, but it was seconds after the event was over. This is not the first time this has happened, nor am I the first person it’s happened to.

In WvW it can be even worse! Playing with ones guild in a hotly contested BG, when suddenly.. -poof- disconnected. Log back in, in under a minute, and voila, standing around in Lions Arch. Try to rejoin the BG you were JUST IN LESS THAN 60 SECONDS AGO? You know, there one where ALL your guildmates are, where you spent the last 2 hours fighting for the sake of your servers territory?
NOPE. Enjoy your hour long queue.

Some people even still Alt-F4 to deny loot in WvW.

PLEASE fix this issue, have your avatar stick around in the game world for a minute or 3 after an unexpected disconnect.
