Hello,
Anyone have already known this issue : being disconnected from your SOLO instance without any chance to enter in back, losing any progression and potential reward.
This issue is very frustrating in these cases :
- SAB, especially during long instances from W2 or when you’re trying to get all those bubbles. (yesterday I’ve experienced an other disconnexion at the end of the W2Z3 tribulation mode after more than 2 hours …)
- Tyrian Personnal Story,
- Living Story 2,
HoT Personnal Story.
A near 4 years old game can’t continue with this isue and need to fix it asap.
What can Anet do ?
- First, like GW1, Anet can implement a way to reconnect into your SOLO instance shortly after you get kicked.
- Second, Anet should create a soulbound checkpoint item that appear in your bag each time you enter in a new SOLO instance. This item will save the last checkpoint from the current instance (SAB, living story, …). Then, if the player is disconnected or if he’s just can’ continue (IRL issue?), he will be able to use this checkpoint item to be ported and get a chance to finish his SOLO instance.
While you try to use this item a message will pop-up and states the current SOLO instance, asking confirmation before being ported.
The item destruction will be automatic when the current instane is cleared or afeter a certain time (24h ? 48h ? 1 week?).
In order to avoid any abuse, this item can be limited to SOLO instances.
