THE FIX FOR LOSING ITEMS THROUGH DC'S

Please make sure you read the second paragraph aswell


Why can't there be something implemented where, if you disconnect from server for any amount of time, you are logged straight out.

Only problem with this would be PVP such as wildy or duel arena where people can simulate a DC to log out, which is why death mechanics in wildy/duel arena could stay as they already are.

PROBLEM SOLVED!

P.S: I've only ever died in PVM due to DC's, never on 07 have I legitimately died bossing.. ..


Spread this solution until it gets implemented!

Why is CORP the only thing with a death change? if every world is disconnecting...? and there is other things out there that require more risk then a bunch of people with d hides and spears... i just dont think that is fair. its not like they are DC'ing the CORP they are DCing the WORLD. Time should be extended for the people that choose to play other parts of the game like Gwd.

Problem with that is another mechanic where you can't log out for 10 seconds after you are in combat. Plus what happens if its not a dc but a small bit of lag? That would log you out straight away in that situation. Then what are you going to do when you go to log back in? That boss will be there waiting for you when you do log in and you will be vulnerable for a few seconds after logging in.

2 minutes is the limit if you scroll down to where i posted a quote from another jagex mod you'd see that is the limit on what they can give you to retrieve your items. And at corp if you do not get back and get your items within 2 minutes they are deleted.

I hate this. You're making the game easy with this. So what if people are looting at corporeal beast? The whole point of taking on a hard monster is so you face the possibility of dieing.

Don't make the game easy just because you can't stop DDoS attacks to your own servers. Spend some money once in a while and you'll fix it.

Hey guys,

I's like to comment on a few things that you have raised. Firstly, the reason why you only have two minutes to collect your items from Corp is because it still maintains the risk of fighting corp. If we extended the timer there would be a very limited risk to being there, this would increase the amount of people going to Corp and thus the amount of sigils dropping. This would devalue Corp significantly.

I understand that you are angry when you die due to the network issues, I would be too which is why we are working so hard to find some solutions. We did some work on our London servers on Friday and those have been fine over the weekend so I would suggest you use those if you are planning anything dangerous.

With regards to the network attacks, there is not a single solution which will solve the problems and system administration team is working on numerous solutions. Every time we make changes, the types of attack we receive change and we then have to react to that.

There have been numerous solutions posted on the forums and on other sites, all have been investigated as to the potential for their success and we proceeding on likely solutions. We can change content relatively quickly so if you can thing of any content changes that may help, please do get in touch.

If you are experiencing any death mechanics different to how they are advertised in this thread, please send us a bug report .
Thanks,

Mat.

If items are not appearing for anyone at Corp, what's the point making the despawn death timer 2minutes?? No1 is gaining from it and if you dc it takes 1minute before you can login again.

Make it 5-30minutes inside of corp cave aswell, looking like you don't care about everyone losing fighter hats/torso/fcapes/void @ corp.

:c

Besides that what is the point of a combat level requirement when it was only there to stop looters but no need of it as no loot can be looted from there.

the point of the level requirement is so that people who aren't there to fight corp don't make fighting it extra hard; corp regens hp based on how many players are in the room.
