Why u should add timers:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ij_-sVSa6tY

RIP drama missed because of no logout and port timers

It makes it too easy for noob players to be killed. There's no other defense for new players than to log or port. They'd die in droves if they didn't even have that. If they're even using the standard client they don't even have the other players on their radar which makes it even harder to survive against people chasing them.

Are you aware of something called Trial By Combat?

[Dallane]

No he is a moron.

Timer doesn't sound like a good solution. Travel should cost silver and the cost should depend on distance. This solves alt abuse problem.
Travel should be free only to nearest landmark/mass transport station.

Hey this is a pretty good idea too... +1

[Dopefly]

pls just make up your mind, if you dont want ppl to use alts just remove the alt system - it sucks anyway - 1 player, 1 account, 1 character

What is this "alt system" of which you speak, and what would removing it entail? How do you propose to make it "1 player, 1 account"?

Now that is a great idea! !

I'm pretty sure he's asking how to do it... which in this case simply means "it's more complicated than you think it is"

All these tears are hilarious.

I think its a good idea, it stops raiders from alt porting all their stolen stuff to boston. To solve the combat logging problem I think we should just make it so you can only log off at either your leanto or your homestead. There would obviously be a message saying "you cant log off away from your home". If you close the game outside of there your character stays logged in . Kinda like how you can't log off while over burdened.

That way both raiders and non-raiders both get nerfed in a way that its fair for both and removes the silly flaws in the system that both parties exploit to make the game retarded.

To prevent complete noobs from all getting slaughtered, maybe there should be a dishonor/shame debuff for killing players drastically weaker than you.

[Dallane]

I'm stupid.

*Fast Travel to Providence now has a 10 minute cooldown.

I dont care much for that myself, but I know many other people do, because of various reasons.

But I do remember JC say that he did not like alts, at all.
Now, this demands much more alts for everyone, gg JC!

I considered not allowing players to log off unless they are at their leantos but it really messes with those who like to explore.

never.

This does nothing of the sort. Anybody who is using 10KG alts to transfer an extra 10KG of stuff inside a 10 minute timer is wasting FAR more time switching characters than they are gaining and so I consider their stupidity as entertaining as tears. This reminds me of when people ran around pretending there were going to be an abundance of feather alts, and autumn grass alts etc. etc. because of the low carry weight. The reality is that next to nobody does this and everybody who ran around saying the sky was falling because of it did nothing but prove themselves a fool.

Exploring, that was my first thought there, too. I am really excited to see what you will come up with regarding that.

And for the alts, it is not hard for anyone to make alts that can carry almost as much as their mains, if you have all the necessary infrastructure, you can mass produce alts that have all the carry skills (which make up a lot of the carry capacity) and even more through at least medium (yellow) biles.

That does effectively mean, people who use alts for things like transporting lime to their base, now need to invest more in their alts, and well possibly use more of them.
I wonder if we will see raiders with endless alt trains traveling to their target... ^^
