Guild Wars 2

So I was killing Scarlet Briar, at the 1:00min mark we have her down to past 50% of her health, and all of a sudden my computer dies. Frustrating as it was, I was hoping when I log back into the map, I’d get the reward for the effort I put in. Sadly, it did not happen. So I was wondering what do you guys think about a compensation system or a recovery system so that when players somehow disconnect, when they log back in they’ll get credit for what they’ve done?

It would be great, but it will also not likely be something ANet commits to. The reason I say this, is the problem is the event zone out problem. If you zone before an event you participated in completes you don’t get credit for it. Disconnecting is the same as zoning out. Even if you came back before the event completed you still wouldn’t get credit unless you participated more in that time.

Now the reason I don’t think they have any intention of fixing this is the Moa Races in LA. They made it so that you physically can’t leave LA if you bet on a race, to ensure that you will be there when the race finishes. At this point would have been the ideal time to implement a way to save progress in an event to ensure that you get credit when the even completes even if you left or crashed or whatever. Instead they just tried to prevent you from leaving.
