I've been grinding Survival Freelance in hope of getting legend for the 2nd and 3rd time, however during this season it has been EXTREMELY frustrating to have teammates being disconnected or depart themselves, and yet I get punished for it. The tipping point for me is my experience less than 20 minutes ago:
I'm a busy dude, and I sometimes game on my lunch break. So here I am grinding comp, on a good streak and then I get loaded in with one teammate... ok bummer, but now i have to just suicide until the match is over so i don't get penalized. So that happened. Load into the next game(which I had time for one more) and once again. Load in with one teammate and the other departs within a minute.
My question is WHY should I get penalized with quitting a match where someone DC'd or left first, and WHY does my glory take a hit. I understand in the Survival team playlist, if we weren't penalized or lost glory, then people can exploit it by just having someone leave. But why can't the Freelance playlist adopt this rule. It can't be exploited. Couple this frustration with the amount of cheaters running around and people 3 peeking and hiding with shotguns and swords until their supers charge is making this PvP experience the worst in Destiny history for me. PLEASE Bungie. Give some love to PvP. Please.

Losing a game should always cost glory imo, even if it seems unfair - if not, it would be abusable. But I agree that you shouldn't be temporarily restricted for leaving a game if one of your teammates left before you.
