Afk Zones

[KarzKnarzer]

Hey Guys,
I'm kind of new to the MP, only a few days since registration and I really enjoy playing, espacially with a nice community like this.

But I also got some ideas, how to improve the experience we all can have by playing this great game. One of those I would like to present here.

 

Suggestion Name: Restingzones

Suggestion Description:

So I went driving for a while and what I noticed is, that a lot of players just leave their lorry on the road side when going afk, waiting for the server to kick them off. At the same time I saw the resting places deserted and it seems to be a rare event meeting somebody at the gasstations. So my suggestion would be to turn the ingame resting places into afkzones, where players can rest, lets say betwenn 15 and 20min without being kicked. That way some elemental part of the gameworld would get some use, it would add some realism to the game and players could stay logged in for a restricted amount of time, while going afk.

Let me hear what you think

Any example images: 

Why should it be added?: Realism, immersion, practicability

Hi there,

 

Unfortunately, whilst your suggestion would make things nice, the whole point of an AFK timer is to make room for new users waiting in the queue, so if we extended the AFK timer, this would not allow more users to join.
