This might have something to do with it. Oh, don't worry. Bungie would never lie about this and say they didn't use this cheap tactic in Destiny. https://www.pcgamesn.com/activision-microtransaction-matchmaking-patent

I'll still leave matches...😆. If bungie actually believes that players are worried about quitting penalties they're mistaken. The only thing this will do is minimize the pvp pool of players and give penalized players more motivation to log out and put a different game in. At the moment the motivation to quit the game in general is already there, the penalties will just boost that situation. So the question is, can players Honestly believe this will prevent quitting? Instead of quitting matches, do you think players will simply disconnect instead? Will the penalties go as far as even affecting lost connections? If it does, how do you think this will affect players who loose connection from no fault from their own especially in trials? Do you think that players won't simply find s different way to avoid the "quitting penalties"? Or maybe instead of quitting they'll simply go hide in the map until the end or simply afk until the game boots? There's probably more ways but those are quick ideas.... Destinys pvp is absolute trash. Nobody cares about this game anymore. So I actually hope they do implement the penalties. It will give me a good laugh......

Don't forget that plethora of zoo errors you'll be penalized for now too

If those FOOLS at Bungie actually implement this it will KILL crucible. NO ONE will play and the numbers will continue to dwindle. The penalty will only ensure people quit playing. I think many of us are willing to deal with the bullshit lag and stacked teams because you can always leave. If that goes away, SO WILL THE PLAYER BASE!! All of those wanna be hard asses that complain about people quitting will end up playing each other as that is all that will remain in crucible. I'm not the best in crucible, however I refuse to stay in a match where people are skipping across the screen or won't take damage. People can get as mad at me as they want, I don't care. I'm not going to waste time getting my ass handed to me due to Bungie's crap matchmaking, laggy P2P, and cheaters.... Mark my words.... The penalty will KILL crucible. Given the leadership at Bungie is a bunch of FOOLS they will probably do this as they won't have to fix the sandbox as no one will be using it.

The error, in this instance, is yours.... and they are penalizing you for being a quitter. I am NOT excusing the problems and eff-ups that Bungie (more precisely, people in Bungie's Management) have made. They own those problems... but if you're playing a match and you puss out because you're getting schooled instead of fighting on, that is on you. Don't blame Bungie for your flakey-ness. Just sayin - try fighting on more, and whinging less.

Didn’t the community want this? I seem to remember numerous posts about having a penalty for people who leave early. “Oh but matchmaking/solo queue sucks” this is nothing new and they still wanted its. So. Suck it up, find a team in a TEAM BASED GAME or get the hell out.

Just can't agree. Quitter's should be penalized. Not to mention your position is just wrong headed. Every match is unique. If the outcome of one match was any type of predictor... Why would anyone even return to the crucible? We've all been stomped before. To enter the crucible you have to have a short memory or you won't be long for it. It's too late for you though, once a quitter- -always a quitter. There is no turning back! You just made Shaxx throw up in his helmet Guardian.

Penalties for players quitting is straight up BS!!!! The only time I quit is when the other team is lagging or cheating, I'm NOT going to play in a match like that!!! Reporting is a joke, and it does NOTHING at the time of the match, it doesn't remove the loss or properly award the loot, so what's my incentive to stay in a match and let some cheating scrub win!!! I have NO problem losing a fair match, but nothing pisses me off more that cheating at video games.
