Actually, I'll let you in on a little secret.


There's a key word in this game that will pause everything... so what you must do is this: type /yell I LOVE BUTTSECKS!

And it will pause everything around you. Then, to restart, you type /yell I NEED A TOWEL!


There, hope that clears everything up for you.

Oh come on people, if you want to pause just disconnect from the game and reload when you get back, it makes you covert, people see you as LD, and it takes two seconds to load back up.



I agree with your point but no need to exaggerate. It takes more than 2 seconds just to get LaunchPad to render and start checking for updates.





Actually, on a decent computer it will. Disconnect, not exit. Disconnect brings you back to main menu, not having to restart the laucnhpad.


About pausing an ONLINE GAME, (chuckles), you çan't. The servers ALWAYS run! There isn't a way to [ause it without other people's games stopping too. Your first post made you sound like an immature selfish ass hole, of course I have a problem of seeing that in people right away.



Define "disconnect". Do you mean /quit? Do you mean /sit;/logout? Do you mean pull your net cable?

Let me clarify: YOU CANNOT PAUSE THE GAME, EVEN YOUR INSTANCE OF IT.


When you run the Client, you are essentially logging into the server your character is on. You don't even need the disc in the PC to play. This is a game that is run on a server that you have absolutely no control over. The only way that the game could be "paused", is if the server went down. Then it wouldn't pause anyways, it would end the game. Once again: you cannot pause the game or your character on the server. The game is ongoing until the server shuts down/crashes or until you log out. I know that it is impossible to explain something so simple to most people, but I don't know how else to do so, without flaming or just being really blunt.

Come on, guys, he registered on 7/23, not to mention he keeps pushing to pause the game even though everyone has made it clear that you can't pause the game. On top of that, I really don't think anyone could be so stupid.


Methinks we just have an attention grabber here

I think everyone that actually replied after him asking why can't he pause the third time has to be or will be an excellent parent.


I could've told you that he was just being silly after the second post. But omg this was the best laugh in the longest time, and I could not stop laughing after that dude got angry for everyone laughing at the poster. There is a thread in the Jedi forum that describes this situation the best go read it.


Oh Man you my friend get 5 stars for the funny post.
