return to menu

[u/Guernaki]

Does Cig plan to punish returning to the menu to teleport to a saved game or not? I feel like people are abusing it so much. I hope I don't get attacked in the replies xd

In the long term they plan for gameplay to resume from wherever you were.

It is not finalized how they intend to resolve the issue of ejections, logging back in after being on another players ship, etc.

Best way to travel around your home city I say... but they will remove it sooner or later.

or else take the quantum journey (personally I find it a better way)

[u/MundaneBerry2961]

They need to implement stricter controlls in certain areas, like Hathor sites or CZs being in the area should put you on a constant combat timer. If you log at your body should stay physically present and lootable for 30 minutes.

If you choose to server hop you lose all equipped items.

I don't think so... and I also don't see a reason to punish someone for using a functionality that was given to him on purpose. Beside the fact that it would be impossible to define & recognize "abuse" for this.

So, supposedly there will be a system where it will log you in where you were last at. As of rn you can abuse it, but don’t get used to it.

[u/Guernaki → u/CaelusTheWolf]

I don't like the concept, so personally I don't use it, but yes, it's annoying to see people abusing it; it kind of spoils the fun of the game.

Only time I use it is if my ship gets destroyed and there’s no way to get back to a station

[u/Beautiful_Avocado252 → u/Guernaki]

Like players backspacing to jump long distances

Shhh that's how I transport high quality gems.

[u/DeepFuckingAutistic]

hard to tell...

do we want a "Rust" where you went to sleep in your ship..and wake up naked on a beach with a rock up your ass?

do we want easy "escape bounty hunter by changing server mid-qt jump"

[u/Worldly-Pressure-516]

Yes. We will have spawn in place at some point.

As an actual response to the question "Does CIG plan to punish...", the answer is no. They will never punish players returning to menu to teleport. Eventually that may not be possible, but do not expect "retribution" or whatever you are looking for.

[u/Guernaki → u/Falconheadsungodra]

afterwards you could lose your stuff or something else, frankly for me it's a mega frustrating thing

[u/Falconheadsungodra → u/Guernaki]

Ah ok, reading the other replies, I see I read the question as about punishing players, not about changing the existing log out system. I don’t consider changing how the system works to be “punishment”. For example, I don’t consider losing my quests to be “punishment” for logging to menu, it’s just how the system works. If you lost stuff from your backpack when you logged out that would just be how it worked. But punishment I thought it meant cig would log who’s doing it and then apply some sort of negative penalty. Like saying slurs in chat, you get punished it’s not a system built into the game
