Once again I bring up that Leaving a match must have consequesces.

And by leaving I ONLY mean pressing the buttons to "Go to Orbit" I watched countless Rift matched my daughter was playing where all it took was a slight lead from the other team for people to start leaving. It's quite simple to deter. If you 'Give up" on a match you also "give up" ANYTHING Gained and/or acquired from the match. I repeat...ANYTHING: XP (Class/Subclass Progress) Reputation Glimmer Weapon/Armor Progress Mission/Bounty Progress/Completions All Stat Progress (Anything else?) I reiterate that this is "Go to Orbit" triggered only. If someone wants to disconnect themselves from the internet to do this (restart game, Log back in, Re-queue up) then so be it. That's a lot of time and work to just quit a round. I understand that this seems like a harsh consequence but leaving is the middle of a round should not be a valid 'tactic' to avoid a loss. Sure maybe there's a family Emergency or something but I bet that whatever 'valid' reason for leaving far outweighs what could have been earned in a game round. EDIT: Some replies and clarifications that came up in topic: - It's not meant to deter everyone. If you feel a pending loss is still worth leaving despite losing anything gained that round then more power to you. As long as the consequence is understood. - Real Life always comes first. If something really important came up it's probably worth more than whatever you were gaining in game. - For cases of: Matchmaking fail (entering a badly loosing round), Dislike Map, too many Red Bars, Same Map in a row, you are a Red Bar...30 seconds (or some short timeframe OR before you score any kills/points) to leave a match you just joined with no penalty. - Alternate system. limited 'quits' per week. When limit is reached there is a 10 min (or some timeframe) ban from playing PVP.

  • Agreed. They wanna avoid the loss. I'd normally spew some profanity about these cowardly maggots, but out of respect for your daughter, I'll refrain. But, there definitely needs to be consequences for bailing mid-match.
