character locations on log out/in

Post#1 » Fri Jan 29, 2016 10:51 am

Sometime recently something was changed where when I log out or get dc'd, if I leave a player character somewhere other than a camp or chapter hub of some kind, when I log back in the character has been moved.
I've always enjoyed exploring the zones if I wasn't doing some kind of RvR and since the ToK unlocks were implemented I've been doing more exploring trying to get unlocks done. In the past I often would log out in a random location, sometimes even on the opposite factions side of a zone/map but now I always get brought back to a friendly camp when I do that. Even in Altdorf, I may log out in the vault and when I log back in that character is over by the flight master.
Was this changed for some reason or is this a new bug that has cropped up? I'm posting here because I honestly don't know if it is a bug. If it was changed intentionally was there some reasoning behind the change? Also, if intentional is there the possibility of it being changed back? It is very discouraging to do all the work of getting close to a far away unlock or area you want to see and have to log out for a few minutes before you reach your objective or worse you get dc'd and have to start all over again instead of just logging back in where you dc'd. Thanks for reading/listening.

Thank for all the great work you devs are all doing.

People could run duel accounts if they wanted to farm themselves. I do agree it can be annoying crashing at a keep take and spawning back at the WAR camp but at the same time a lot of players use to D/C on purpose if they were about to be killed. The positive is when you use to log out in RvR zone and log back in there was a possibility of being surrounded by the opposing realm.

Would be abused one way of another, no real solution comes to mind.

i put this on the bugtracker, its not the original behaviour and the change was wrong IMHO.

logging out in a keep or bo should respawn you in the wc, logging out in the normal rvr lake (or going into a sc) should respawn you at the location you logged out/went into sc.

Yeah, and it was a change that should be reverted.

Upvote for restoring the original behavior as Tiggo suggested.

If it was an intentional change, as you said, you should know better than to report it as a bug.

i didnt say it was intentional. Actually its not in the intentional change thread:

i didnt find any thread discussing this change either to be honest, nor was the change in any patchnote.
