Penalty for leaving a match early.....

So IB Rift is a bit of a gong show. Some like it, some hate it, that's not what this about. I have played a lot of IB solo and some in a fire team over the last 3 days and about 40% of the matches I am put into solo are in progress and a re total blow outs. People are getting their 5 medallions and once they are in a match and getting spanked they quit and go looking for another...screwing everyone else in the lobby. Needs to be a penalty instituted for dropping early. Either the rep equivalent of a medallion or actually losing a medallion if you have one(or more) in your inventory. I understand that people with legitimate connection issues will also be punished but you should'nt be playing online MP games with a 1mb connection. Thoughts?

  • There's no incentive to waste my time in a game I have no chance of winning. Why stay till I get a medallion and a weapon/armor part when I could leave and find a game I might win? Lets say I spend 2 minutes finding a match, playing it, ultimately deciding the match is lost based on a number of observations and quitting to find another game. I do this 3 times total wasting 6 minutes. The 4th game has a chance for a win. I stay, play and win. Takes 8 minutes. By the time I finished the winning game I've spent 14 minutes. After all that, I spent 14 minutes to get (making up numbers for ease) 100 IB rep. If I stayed in the first game, I would've wasted 10-12 minutes for 80 IB rep and started another game that may or may not be won. For 2 extra minutes, I gained 20 more rep. Plus I sometimes get lucky and have 2-3 games in a row that are wins and that just adds more time I can spend jumping and still have a net gain. When it comes down to it, I'm not wasting my time to get a medallion that's worth less than a normal win when I can jump from game to game to find a win. Especially since Rift is an absolute ass game mode and is not fun for me to play in any way, shape, and/or form. In conclusion, I play games for my enjoyment not others. Your experience and fun is not my concern.

  • What's sad about this is that they won't address these problem until after iron banner then be like "we had a lot of complaints about the matchmaking so it's updated now" like where the fu/ck was the update during iron banner

      Once bounties are done and you have 5 medallions there is no incentive to stay whatsoever with drops rates of desirable gear so low and it being a limited time event. Change those rather than penalize. That just benefits those who can play all week and hurts those that cant. If losing gave some rep, drops were guaranteed, or time extended we would have less of a problem

      • I would say yes to all of this if Destinies servers weren't what they are you have all had a day with good connections and still have gotten an error code kicking us from the game
