Server Restart Warning / Add Sever To Fav.

Recommended Posts

- I'd love to have some 5 minutes warning before the server restart ... server should show something like: "the server will be restarted aprox in 5 minutes"  and this time should be somehow random, restart should come in range of 1-7 minutes not exactly those 5 (these times can be extended or shortened to make it harder for hoppers)

 

reasons why have this:

  • if you changing items on the ground - mostly taking new backpack and swapping old items to the new one ... i think it happened to most of us lose gear like that if restart came unexpected
  • my speculation - i got some characters wiped cause i was moving inside building in upper floors, if i see the restart is coming i will definitely move my ass to some safe zone aka forest or something
  • you probably wont start some gunfight at this point

 

 

- another thing that would be much appreciated if one could add server to favourites once in game (over "P" menu probably)

 

 

 

I think these has been posted somewhere already as I have feeling I was reading it already but my search function didn't helped me much as I can't find it or I'm just bad at it, so sorry if it has been posted already.

Post any other constructive ideas or cons/pros to this topic I will be updating it, thx.

This is definitely something that needs to be added. The number of times I've been screwed over by backpacks and restarts is unreal...

 

I'd like to see a 15, 10 and 5 minutes until restart countdown.

But it is ALPHA ... sorry guys ... couldn't resist. :)

 

One would hope that this would be implemented in the future.

There are servers that broadcast warnings on pending reset and if you stick with regular server you know the reset schedule. In some random servers

admins are abusing their power and reset servers at their pleasure to re-loot valuable locations and give no warning about the imminent reset.

This really needs to be added, mainly for those people that meet up with randoms and are suddenly disconnected without knowing which server they were on and can't join back in to continue with their new friend.
