DC Problems - Proposal of temp party rejoin button

**Heiress** · 11-17-2014, 07:55 AM

Proposing that a party rejoin option be made available for elite planar tombs while the dc problem is being sorted out. Just like the regular fast-join feature. U can take it away when it's fixed.

One existing temp solution that works so far, as a number of forumers have shared, is to leave the AL app open on a 2nd device and log in from there when u lose connection on primary device. That brings u back to the same elite map with ur original party (albeit without timer). The limit to this method is that a) not everyone has access to secondary device, and b) on certain devices/slower connections u're brought to login screen not back to the elite map.

Currently still seeing 100% chance of someone dc-ing in a 4-man party. Just a while ago, I dc-ed and rejoined 3 times, 2 party members dc-ed and couldn't rejoin. Adding a temporary "go to party" button would allow us to rejoin without resorting to relying on loopholes, and alleviate a lot of the grief. Plus I am tired of losing money everytime I revive a few times, then dc and don't rejoin successfully.

Whatever, just tired in general. Hope u guys have a think about this.

ps If worried that it will skew map completion times, I don't see how the effect wld be much diff from the current loophole. And generally party of 1-2 take longer to complete than 3-4 so players should prob figure out it's not worth the monkey business. If it's been suggested before, pls help me link original post here. Let's get it doneeeee

+1 alternatively add a rejoin button which if you rejoin kills the timer for all elite maps and tombs permanently that way a dc at the boss so a party hunting aps dont have to remap.

Umm I would say no

Read this thread, just starting, if that would even go with this dc stuff and 10ankh/plat RC then it would become even worse I think ..

Yeah doesnt make much sense, but they can say till the issue is there use this rejoining service we have made :3 and again 10plat/ankh more gone in maps

**GuardianTwo** · 11-17-2014, 10:22 PM

Hold up. U're talking about a different idea. I think u've confused what's being suggested here, with what's being suggested on that link u provided.

I'm suggesting the "Go to Party" button be available from party menu. Exactly what u would see if your party was running a normal map, which has always been free to join. The button stays available and disappears while the boss is engaged.

The aim is to have an existing fast-join feature made temporarily available to elite planar tombs, and not to create a new purchasable service option.

Hope this clarifies ...

I am sorry for confusion, I had read a thread , and it was for rejoining map too! But there the idea suggested was to charge 10 ankh/plat to be able to rejoin, and then I thought that will ruin game like ankh revival as mention in link, so I got out of thread went on searching for link and I didn't found it fast, and when I found I copied, then read heading of this thread, and it was MY mistake I misunderstood this thread as the one I had read earlier, but I already posted and when you replied, I read thread and XD its a different thread in which I had posted.... So it was due to similar thread I posted it on wrong one

I am sorry for confusion.

+1 for this idea, and I think its like the event maps in which when we reset boss, others can join back the map.

all gd it happens. I hope sts considers this simple temp solution while they find a fix. At least implement some form of damage control at their end. It's kinda sad even things like, tips and tricks how not to dc (in the meantime) was posted by a player and not an employee. ouch!
