Why Do People Immediately Leave An Activity They Specifically Chose?
As the title says, what the heck with that? I'm playing the reclaim missions, twice I've loaded the Cabal one, twice other players abandon the mission within a minute. What's the point of quitting before you even know how the mission is going to go?

My bad homie. Old episodes of "2 And A Half Men" came on right as we were loading.... The Charlie Sheen ones. My bad! I had to go!

Speaking just for myself: If I run in and instantly die, I usually figure the Fireteam is better off without me, and I should give that slot to someone who can actually make use of it/benefit the team. Nobody wants to feel like a liability, y'know? And in some of these difficulty levels it's very easy to feel like a liability. I think a lot of it comes down to confidence; people don't feel confident that they can complete the activity. I'm trying to be better about this, I stuck it out through a Master Fireteam Ops last night despite my frequent deaths, managed to complete the activity, but I did feel kind of lousy about eating up my team's resurrections. And the difficulty scaling in the Portal is kind of wacky and unpredictable. Hopefully next week's changes will help smooth that over a little bit.

Edited by Obi-Juan: 10/11/2025 2:48:19 PMA lot of people I think loaded up an activity and were equipping their loadout, then before they're fully ready the game locks it. That's enough reason to quit for a lot of people. Remove the locked loadout from matchmaking and I think you'll see this occur a loooot less
-
Usually Players realising they’ve got the wrong flavour of energy weapon on. 30 seconds grace before locking loadout once you land would sort that out.
-
Equipment locking. they messed up something in their build before loading in and can't change it.

5 RepliesHas Bungo forgotten how to add someone from the queue into a matchmade activity when someone quits? I have yet to see a replacement brought in after a team of 3 suddenly becomes a team of 2. Is there something that says join-in-progress is disabled? I could tolerate quitters a lot better if they were replaced promptly.
-
1 ReplyBecause modifiers. I just want to select an activity and a difficulty. Not spend 5-10min changing my load outs around to optimize every time I play
-
Because motivation to play only lasts while in orbit.
-
This is getting worse. Ugh. And you don’t get an automatic replacement when they gobble up the revives and dip out.

I know i did it to random on accident. A friend and i were running just to get the bonuses. I launched the first one as a custom and we completed it. I launched the second one and didnt realize i put us into the match made version, because we loaded in instantly. I asled him if he wanted to stay or pull us out. He said leave because he wasnt about to run it 30 under level.

1 ReplyLocked loadouts. If you forget there's not much else to do.

3 RepliesThey are lazy bums hoping that you might already be done 70%. They just do it for the loot. Effort? What is that? Why should they, bungie is at their beckon call after all. The community should be happy they fill the fireteam spots. Its hard to play a game when you work 102 hours and have 7 kids.

2 RepliesIf I get people that rush in and die within 30 seconds I'll leave unless we're in a party/ team. When the team starts with 1 life and it's gone that fast forget it. Between network errors and the length of the mission it's not worth it. I decided to try and tough it out yesterday during a reclaim run. We get to the end and I get disconnected. Just not worth it. It's not bad enough that once you hit 500 you're doing tough stuff but the modifiers are terrible and sometimes don't even work correctly. I can grind and that's fine but when you need an A on every activity and higher power gear isn't guaranteed it gets tiring. Bungie inadvertently made me realize what my time is worth.
-
Because if I want to do Reclaim then I'll pick it from it's own section. If I want to do a random strike then it should be a strike and not a random Reclaim that snuck in.
-
Because nine out of ten human beings can statistically be dismissed in my book. You are gambling when you go for blueberries, don't expect anything.
-
1 ReplySome folks don't check the modifiers and load in with builds that won't work. If they are on a great arc warlock build but the activity has solar hunger they can either leave or have a bad time. Sometimes both.
-
It could be that life happens man this is a game get over it and move on
-
Maybe they are bipolar
-
No ideas, I did it couple time in FF usually when I’m joining someone lower level and they don’t notice the power level is adjusted up and end up launching us into a C grade activity. And I’m not grinding Encore for 30’ for a C.

1 ReplyEdited by GammaJam: 10/10/2025 12:45:51 PMYeah, I dont get that either. I have noticed most tht leave are over 500 light. I mean those take some time investment I guess? That said, I can almost aways two man them but it is irritating when they leave.
