So we can do our writ open the character selection screen and load the next toon seamlessly without logging out and returning to the login screen. The toon swapping is out of control 17 toons takes forever just log in and out every single time... Yes my game is on ssd with an insane system but still games like BDO and GW2 have this very basic feature so should we.

I'd guess that the ability to do this might depend on the server structure & coding of each game. I've played MMOs in the past that could do it, but many more that didn't.

Wouldn't speed up much. The game needs to close the current character and save all changes back to the database (thats what logout does) and then pull up the new character from the database as your active character (which is what login does) So the work what the game need to do would be the same, and you would just effectively would sit in the front of a twice that long loading screen.

No it wouldn't cause you would have to go through two loading screens as well to enter and leave the house....

Just being able to place them in our housse would already be SO COOL!
(In other words: never going to happen).

I have exactly the same thing, random screen freezes when on the character selection screen, even without add-ons enabled.After Waitmoor launched (barely) - my game constantly crashes 2/3 times after few seconds of being on character selection screen (with or without hitting play button).
As an altoholic with 18 chars it's horrifyingly annoying to switch toons knowing that I'll probably will have to restart game and pray rng gods that it will not crash this time.
So yeah, I would definitely like improved and faster way to switch chars.
In guild wars swapping toons takes seconds
Even just keeping track of which character you logged out of and not jumpimg to the top of the list would be an improvement...

Is this a PC thing? Because on Xbox your character selector stays on whatever character you just logged out from, even on a full shutdown of the game/console.
I cycle through 11 characters for daily writs, and have them in a specific order on the selection screen so I can keep track of various things, and if I login on my main (#1 slot on the selection screen) but go to bed after logging out on character #8, when I boot up the console and game the following day, the selection screen will start me at character #8 and not reset back to #1, so I'm not sure what you're referring to about jumping to the top of the list unless maybe you have an addon that's causing it.
