Rage Quitters In The Crucible

Edit of February 22 of 2015: Happened again in the Iron Banner. On the other team 3 left at once when they got overrun. Edit of March 20 2015: Had two people from the other team rage quit when we pulled ahead by 400 points and only had 1000 more points till we won. Scumbag behavior. 400 points is nothing, i've come back from worse than that. Hell, other teams have come back from worse odds versus me. Just gross and disgusting. Don't be dicks to your teammates, please. Bungie needs to have a system to punish people who abandon a pvp game. The game clearly knows (or should know) when you disconnect because of the connection or when you just quit the activity via the ghost. If you quit via the ghost x number of times you should get some sort of penalty to your character. [b]Original post:[/b] Gif pretty much nails how I felt and how I think everyone else on my team felt. [b]Disclaimer:This might not the the stereotypical post you might expect from these forums so give me a chance.[/b] I've been there before, I get it. You're getting destroyed by a superior team. Yeah, your K/D ratio's taking a beating. That stuff sucks. It's not fun. Know what's worse? Witnessing people quit in the crucible, leaving their teammates to get destroyed. I just finished a match where half of the opposing team quit because they were losing. It wasn't even an awful beating at that point but still they ran away. I felt awful piling on the remaining players. It was horrible. I've endured awful rounds, a few extra deaths won't affect you much. Quit when the match's over. I'm not going to mince words, this community is awful. And what's worse is that I[b] know[/b] that there are great people in it. I've played with them, i've talked to them and i've interacted with them but the rotten apples are just too numerous. This post really has no point. I'm not offering feedback on how to fix it (would be too hard to fix it via punishment for quitting and whatnot). But I just wanted to put this out there, regardless of how it makes me look. It's my first thread on the Destiny tab/board and I thought long and hard about posting it but I feel it needs to be said at least one million times (pretty sure this isn't the first thread about this particular issue). Inb4stopbeingableedingheart and inb4FirstWorldProblems and other such reactions.

    • I agree with OP that there should be a penalty for quitting. However, there should also be an option to toggle off getting dropped into a match already in progress. It really pisses me off to load into game where my new team is getting beat by 5k or more, and other team has all flags and heavy ammo... sometimes I go straight back to orbit I wont lie...

    • I go with the Street Fighter philosophy that every defeat is a victory in knowledge From defeat you grow stronger and this in turn makes you better if you learn from your mistakes When you start to leave games because you're getting your arse whooped then you learn nothing Apart from when it's lagging to the point where my bullets aren't doing anything, I see no reason to leave

    • When you play a superior team they are teaching you valuable lessons. Pay attention and learn their tactics! It's not a waste of time if you gain knowledge of the game. More importantly, have fun and lvl 5 will come. It did for me and I only have a .55 k/d. :-/

      • It hasn't been that bad this time around. Back in the Suros reign of terror last month, the rage quitting was a lot worse.

      • I agree with the OP. There's only one reason to quit for me, and that's if the opposing teams lag is just ridiculous.

      • Well, you get a gay medallion for losing and once you get 5 every lost match is a waste of time. What's worse is putting me in a game that's half way done on the team trailing by 10000 points. I'm not wasting my time especially if I'm playing solo.

        • Ive been the last man standing after an entire team rage quit around me. I had fun. Control with only one target is pretty frustrating for the other team. I equipped my shotgun (usually sniper) and managed 9 more kills. I remember the number because I just wanted 10 by myself. After about 6 minutes and barely any score change the team refilled with about 2 min left. Pretty big waste of time for them... we still lost. I got a couple of messages after that match. 2 nice "GG BUD" type txt messages and one voice message full of rage calling me a camping whore. The last one was my favorite. :)

          Wall of text summarized: "People on a team quit, I didn't quit, One team thrashed the other team like they should have since they had more people on their team and it's not fair. Waaah! Waaaah!"

          • I find it fun when people rage quit. Especial when there is just one person left,we just start dancing and waving to show him we're friendly. I had a match a few days ago when the only enemy left just sat down with us until the match ended...good times.

                • I don't mind getting stomped by a good team. It's frustrating but acceptable to me. The number 1 reason I quit out of games is due to dumb teammates. For example: the guy that thinks it's domination in COD. Constantly flipping the spawns cause he is capping the other teams spawn. Then picks up the heavy by himself as the rest of the team is sprinting back from B zone. This is what irritates me and causes me to quit out.

                  • When I am getting constantly dropped by your team of 6 at the spawn zone in first place on my team with 600 points and 5 medallions I'm going to leave deal with it. Wtf are you crying about if everyone leaves you still win?

                  • The only times I leave is when I'm dropped in a game where it's ridiculously lopsided and the other team has a full arsenal of heavy ammo. On a recent IB match, I came into a game where team was already down about 3k-8k. I stuck around cuz I was getting kills, and ended up winning that match by almost 1000. I would never rage quit if I sucked (sorry to people who I'm bringing down in that match)

                  • I only leave if I am literally carrying my team a certain amount of games IN A ROW. It gets annoying. I know my team is bad when I'm at the top of the scoreboard.

                      • Doesn't bother me, gives the other team a chance and if I win one or two down all the better. Sometimes we get awesome replacements as well

                        This one time, I was playing with a random team and we were up against a party team. We destroyed them so hard (probably 10000 to 2000), the party left and we immediately got a victory.

                      • I leave when I put a whole clip into someone and they don't die and then drop me instantly. I don't mind one or two people with red bars but when 8-9 players have them I'm out like a fat kid in dodgeball.

                      • I only leave when my team doesn't try to cap anything like when they have all three
