Solo hardcore game + death(1)Category: Technical SupportJanuary-28-2014 4:22 AM PST (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
I was in a solo game and pressed escape to pause the game. I have done this many times before.
Now after doing some things around the house I come back to a dead hero.

How is this possible? Doesnt the game pause when I press 'escape/esc' on my keyboard?

I was doing fine .....paragon 51, not once was I close to death and now I die to something silly like this......?

Amitabha,

Pressing escape will not pause the game indefinitely. The idle timer will disconnect you after 30 minutes but if you were in the proximity of enemies, they'll most likely get to you and kill you first.

Never leave your hardcore character unattended. If you must, at the very least, get it back to town first.
