Well headline says it all and im sure there are many ppl who are pretty tired of getting DP cause they get killed during crashes.

I just got killed myself during a harving session where i crashed *not the 1st time that have happened i might add* and i just got rid off the DP from last crash so it was nice timing :)

So please remove the Death Penalty until you have things under control again Nevrax.

This has been suggested before when things were *much* worse and they didn't do it, so tbh I doubt they will do it this time :-/

Also, they are patching the server now with a fix to the crashes.

i havnt had any crashes so far today i had 3 lastnight which made me go to bed lol

i went to stronghold with a friend to kill some ocyx/varinx first one we attacked the server died on us and it rolled us back to the lakes..

went back to stronghold killed some varinx/ocyx with friend for a while then recieved a message from a guide telling me harvesting in pr according to the devs hadnt been changed so i went pr to forage prospected saw the same stanza too low message and crashed again relogged back in dyron stronghold with a big roll back and loss of exp/mats/loot

by now rather bored with doing stuff and then 10 mins later having to do it again i just sat and stared at my screen wondering what to do till the next crash came.. and when it did i went to sleep

hopefully this patch will fix more than just the crashes and harvesting but thats just hoping i think

Sounds like an extremely good temporary solution to me :) at the very least, DP shouldn't be racked up if you are disconnected when your character dies.. at least till the crashes are fixed

not sure tho each time i have crashed it has rolled back to a previous time so there is no chance i can die due to the crash because it rolls me back to b4 i was actually in a situation to die
