Just as the topic says. If I hit "Quit" I probably want to quit. I don't want to be asked if I want to quit.
In general UI design, buffer message boxes are best used for actions that:
1. Have a high misfire rate. The closest button to Quit is View Replay and the buttons are far enough apart that it's very unlikely to misclick Quit.
2. Have high ramifications upon misfire. Quitting accidentally has low ramifications. If I'm on that screen, it means that I already disconnected from the chat server. Misclicking it only closes the application and means I need to reopen HoN.
"Are you sure?" adds very little value to HoN. Either remove the message or add a checkbox "Do not ask me next time."
The best example I can give is that almost all PC games do not ask you if you want to quit upon button action. Warcraft, CS, etc. I actually cannot think of a single example of a game that does this.
Disagree.
I think the dialog is there to remind you to prepare for the most awesome quit sound ever
I'm an honest guy who's not afraid to be blunt. Hope you can handle that.
100% agree @ #1

Well... i kinda agree with OP.
But the sound is just great^^
And it's buggy... try clicking quit multiple times... or try clicking Cancel after clicking Quit
Are you disagreeing with my disagreement, or are you agreeing with my disagreement......?
(Sorry I had to.)
I have the feeling you guys think that this is about the sound. It's not - it's about the damn "are you sure you really intended to click this button?"
Why don't we add this ingame as well? For every skill clicked or hotkey pressed we ask if we really wanted to do that with a popup...?
I am agreeing with your disagreement against OP's post
**If you have any questions about keybinds in HoN, feel free to ask and I'll try my best to help.
what about adding some sort of "show this msg again?" :P
Most, yes... We need less complaints about people who left their clans by accident.
I made a disconnect button mod, slides out when the game is over (either base destroyed).
Are you sure?
This :3
Why ...
I can't ...
JUST WHY?
I will never understand some threads on this forum, srsly
If you want to quit HoN without going to main menu and avoiding the are you sure dialog, just open up console anywhere (ctrl + f8) and type quit and press enter
**If you have any questions about keybinds in HoN, feel free to ask and I'll try my best to help.
yeah all those questions are pretty useless and make me wanna kick something.
also: alt+f4 ragequit already!!!
Yeah remove the question at the end. No one accidentally can press quit when you can't even use ESC in HoN to get out of things.
so instead of 2 mouse presses, you can go with 7 key presses instead! problem solved guys.
sometimes i click quit and then it asks me if i really want to quit.
so I think about it a few seconds and then decide no, I don't want to quit, and I play another game.
just throw on a checkbox to 'don't ask me again' or something imo.
T-down
I like the question box.
It tempts me to play another game. lol
