What is the better system?

  1. Countdown regularly

    18.8%
  2. Countdown when online only

    56.3%
  3. Countdown when only in-game

    25.0%

    There's the regular timer which goes by with real time but what if we could change that? Here's my two propositions.

    1. They countdown from when you're online so it doesn't get wasted when you're logged off.

    2. They countdown from when you're playing in a game and not in lobby.

    Yeah it would be nice to have the usual timer, but with no timer reset if d/c

    Actually gears expire in real time, heroes in game time

    Its highly unlikely they would change the time system because both recommendations would affect RC perm item sales.Anything that affects sales in not a good business move even if it would make the community happy...

    I personally agree with #2, but #1 is just as good. I don't tend to use timed items, as they're the only copy of the item I have if I don't have the actual permanent version. Like my damned Halloween set from last year, couldn't get any of it perm so the timed items stay forever in my inventory waiting to be turned permanent.
