Why is the logout extended to 20 seconds?

What worries me is what happens when something unpredictable and genuine happens like router resetting itself etc especially during pvp seems like you're almost guaranteed to get killed and lose gear with a timer that long?

I think it's stupid. Its one thing to address an abuse of logout but to multiply it by 4? Come on....

To compare it to modern games yes, it's around that length but only in the wild. In town it's instant and alt f4 is instant for those times you don't give a shit . Looks like it will be ctrl alt del cause I cba with that crap and if I die from something agro then fk it, that's how it's gonna be. May come across as spitting the dummie but it's stupid things like this where I just cba. By all means fix the problem but for God's sake don't make it worse

You want to curb the behaviour of those who used qwik log apply it per char or apply it to level cap. Why do the rest of us have to suffer

Now no matter what as well if anything hits it interupts. Used to be able to log of at nightmare n happily do the 5 seconds log out. Now even a fireball would interupt it. Running from the mob is 1 thing for 5 seconds but them things have a fair hitting distence for a 20 second log out. I no I'm being lazy buy not running far out and all - but it is nice to log on and crack on with hunting when u only have a minimum amount of hunting time anyway. Without running half a map to do so.

I've never seen the point in these quick logs if u gonna get pked u gonna get pked y chance a quick log u could die n drop something surely ?

The interrupt is good and the not being able to log while running is good.

Could there be a comprise and lower the timer to 10 seconds?

I feel that the interupt and not being able to log while running was probably enough. But please reduce the timer to no more than 10 secs lol

The game is already enough of a grind lvling wise, adding a 20 second timer is way ott, all it does it add another annoyance? trying to figure out how it contributes to preventing cheating at all really? ofc not being able to quick log is good, same for not being able to log whilst running, but the 20 second thing?

20 seconds pretty much means a d/c = death. Even if you weren't in a PvP situation, not moving for 20 seconds would give someone obvious notice of the fact you're gone and motive enough to try and kill you.
