stuck in hyperspace, but no thargoids

May 09, 2004 randomize link
My sector is loaded to 100%, but I don't appear in sector (10 or 6, i've waited so long that I have forgotten). Screen is stuck on loading splash.

It sucks twice as much because I was doing mission for N.T. and had to cancel it and take a faction hit. That blows!

I request that missions time out after half an hour (or 1 hour) if not cancelled. This way when game crashes, sector fails to load or connection drops out I don't lose faction standings - it's not my fault, so I don't believe I should be punished for it.

Thank you :)

And here it is time to realize that we are somewhat of a beta-testing group. I can say "it's just a game" and "it's not a game" in the same breath and be justified. Don't worry about it.

While I do respect an opinion that this is not the game, but merely a test, I also believe that in full game missions should not abort when people get unwillingly disconnected from the game.

It seems that sooner or later this should be implemented in the game, so I am raising this issue now, rather when people are paying for it and getting rightfully annoyed by this silly limitation.

Thank you.
