Players keep leaving Solo Comp matches...Glory Protection is NEEDED Bungie

I don't know what the hell is going on but the last few days I've been trying to break to 4K barrier in Solo Comp. The amount of matches I get left 2v3 in by the second round is getting beyond a joke. This in turn often leads to the second player leaving resulting in a 1v3. Seriously is just dumb lately in general. It's time that either the community mans up and sticks out bad comp matches or Bungie needs to implement some form of Glory Point Protection in these situations. I don't know what the system is right now, but I do know I am losing Glory because players are leaving before mid match leaving me in an unwinnable situation. (Just to clarify: Yes I have been on the favorable side this and played numerous 3v2 or even 3v1 matches and enjoyed the advantage, but felt bad for the other team. Its not fair on anyone, not just me haha) Some times the player is crap tbh, so I guess maybe some are leaving by choice. Others, though are playing well, and still seem to go, so I am assuming quite a few are getting dc'd. It doesn't matter either way to be fair, because I can't win every single 2v3 match I end up in, but have to endure the loss of Glory points because I'm not quite good enough to carry a 2v3 against 3 players who are of equal or greater skill. Some matches I do come out of with a win and it feels great and should probably be rewarded a bit more in those situations lol, but I am only asking for Protection in those matches we lose because we are left 2v3 for whatever reason. I appreciate this may not be a front burner issue but can we please at least make sure it gets put on the To-Do List. Regards Tok

  • All I want is the Mida-Multitool catalyst. If my rank points didn't go down after a lost match and didn't get matched with -blam!- pro players I would stay. So yeah, there's that.

    • I wouldn't have to leave matches if I wasn't getting matched against unbrokens and people with flawless emblems running around with antaeus wards and shotguns, or like in the last game someone with 11 thousand kills on their NF tracker. I don't stand a chance against those people. I don't even have lunas, matching against people that many skill brackets above me should be impossible. How am I ever gonna make progress from getting stomped? And why should I have to stay in a match with people I can never beat?

        • Had to reply like this because theres no option to edit my OP for some reason. Lots of views and opinions being posted, and Thanks for that. Also will say that with the exception of the one guy telling me to make some friends, all the posts so far have been in the range of constructive which is good if bungie do read this. Re getting a team...done that already in past seasons, need one more legend to unlock Unbroken and I feel its more of a challenge in solo. No big thing, i just feel i will have accomplished it a little more legit this way than relying on a team for the full 3 legend ranks needed. Think of it as my own personal challenge to finish the seal. Re netcode, p2p, ddos etc... im on ps4 and havent seen a lot of supiscious stuff so far. Yes there have been a few headscratchers that may have been cheating in some form. I can only report them and move on. Me complaining that every time someone leaves is because of some form of cheat by the otherside isnt helpful. Its a big game with lots of programing involved, and bungie have shown for years now that lobby stability isnt their strong point. Sometimes shit is just gonna happen, but when it looks like someone is being malicious, i cant get focused on that. I can only ask bungie to protect me when something goes awry in game like a player leaving for whatever reason. Re Freelance Trials....yeah thats just a bad idea all round haha. Please bungie, dont even give this ink and paper on a possibilty list lol. Re Stopping matches when someone leaves (whether it's OW style or different)....I disagree with this for several reasons. -I understand the idea of saving everyone the time BUT... 2v3 can be possible. Sometimes even a 1v3, and those times are epic for those players. While the game might be lost 9 out of 10 times, that 1 win is such an awesome feeling it would honestly be a shame to not have the chance. This is game after all so lets play lol. -Many folks can only play so much in a week. The other night i ended up in 4 2v3s in about 2 hours. And some matches folks didnt leave till round 3 or 4. If each of those matches had resulted in all players returned to orbit with no gain at all would be a huge waste of what little time many players have to do this. Plus considering how bad the stability seems to be lately would probably result in a quicker decline in population numbers due to how much wasted time it caused so many folks. - the best thing I can see ever happening is the glory point system being reworked to take note of players leaving without stopping the match. At the very least it should automatically protect players left short a teammate in the event of a loss. Whether that protection is absolutely no glory points lost or even both points and win streak protection, I would say that is the bare minimum we should be asking bungie for. Depending on how difficult or resource intensive it would be an ideal solution would be a system that not only recognises the need to protect us from loss of points, but also takes into account those times you win that 2v3 or even that 1v3, and rewards you with bonus points. Let me just say this tho....the opposing 3 man team should not be punished beyond what we see now. If they win against the 2 man team they should get the normal gain. If they lose they should only lose the normal amount. Thanks for all the comments. Keep it up and we might get this seen by bungie and just might see improvements in the future. But please keep your post constructive. Even if youre obviously annoyed bungie will take note, but toxicity will see you being ignored. Tok

          • Well if people like me who barely have 1000 glory didn’t have to go up against people with mountaintop, Luna and revoker every -blam!-ing game you might not have that problem. I messaged a guy the other night when he went 23-0 against us and asked for help but he said he was max glory and I would be better off by keeping playing solo comp. He was real nice but max glory and at that point I was at like 700. That is probably why people leave. I don’t understand what these people get out of beating the shot out of people like me who suck and are trying to get better. It’s a nightmare

            • Well you knew what you were getting yourself into. You can always make a fire-team to prevent this issue.

            • Let's not forget that the Network is Peer to Peer and that Bungle's matchmaking is abysmal. Many times, I go into Crucible (not even Comp) and empty guns into people and do ZERO damage to their shields let alone health, only to have them spin around and one shot you instantly. After multiple occurrences of this, I just leave the match - zero point in staying and just getting my butt beat. Until Bungle has Regional Dedicated Host Servers, it will be a complete and utter Fecal Spectacle of broken game play and "WTF was that?" moments.

            • There should not be a point deduction for losing, this is a shit system. Before anyone comes back with a stupid get gud i have not forgotten and i did it solo.

              • Unless you’re REALLY good at PvP, cheating or just are lucky enough to live in a spot where you’re getting a good host 90% of the time, then comp sucks.

              • Here's an idea, make it so the player can't manually leave the match until it ends.

              • Simple fix. Players who remain on the losing team stay flat, but the amount of glory they would have lost is deducted from the quitter. Effectively leaving = 2X the glory loss you would have picked up by hanging in.

                • I solo queue a lot. Solo comp imo has most most consistently fun/close matches. Solo QP is usually a blow out win or blowout loss, the matchmaking is terrible and they seem to force a 6-stack vs 6 solos on purpose (which makes no sense). The problem with freelance is breaking up the teams after a win. Imo what they need to do after a win is keep the team together. Let us have a decent chance at a win streak instead of win-one-lose-one. FYI, [b]perfectly[/b] balanced matchmaking would be a 50% win percentage. I think trials freelance could work if you keep the team together after the first win. Otherwise it would be pointless...

                    Actually won my last 2v3 somehow, but a teammate leaving ruins most games in which it happens. Don’t think there should be a penalty if someone in freelance leaves or you join a game in progress.

                  • This is exactly why there should never be raid, end level nf or trials matchmaking. People look for a carry, carry isn’t going well so they leave. It’s sad, almost makes me think they shouldn’t do solo que at all and make the cry babies stop being lazy and find fireteams. That’s the point of these activities anyway so why discredit activities.

                    • Why I stopped playing solo queue comp. Not worth the effort trying to either carry 2 other people who are obviously below my skill level (inherently putting me at a disadvantage) or having a teammate leave after losing 1 round and leaving us in an almost unwinnable situation.

                    • I feel like as long as it wasn’t someone on your fire team that left you should get no penalty or a smaller penalty. Also matches that start off with unbalanced teams should just be canceled

                      • I like when someone leaves. Makes it easier to win. Just keep rotating and get a kill here and there .life advantage, easy win

                      • If people leave the match the winners should only get half glory and the losers should not lose or get anything.

                        • I see it happening a lot more these days. The team winning should get the glory points, regardless. However, if I lose a game going 2v3, my loss of glory should be minimal if any.

                          I thought I was just unlucky with this constantly happening Here's a thought: Keep their names up on leaderboard. That way you know who and report them for quitting. You say you want [b][i]US[/i][/b] to report them Bungie, allow us to then!!!
