People leaving wz is now out of control.

I see you're unfamiliar with it, too. I don't know how old you are, or presume to know, but that's no excuse to not have any.

So you'll go from not playing the game and actively harming other players to just not playing the game.

Most of us see this as a positive, not a threat. =D

Do people even really care if someone leaves? Its not like your going to win if they stay. Is it cause your feelings are hurt?

I really don't care if someone leaves or stays. I've left some, and people have left some I stay in. I never got all emo about it.

Just pretend they died and are respawning, and then a new guy will come in instead. People get all emo cause they feel all rejected and stuff.

While I personally don't leave a WZ with lots of baddies I pretty much understand those that quit it. I understand the frustration of going towards objectives while those around aren't giving a damn about it.

That happens almost only when I playing on the Republic side of my server as the quality of the players there is very low, matches often start when you have less than 8, and at the level 50 bracket the gear disparity between Imps (who still farm a lot of valor in Ilum these days) and Republic is incredible.

I do get frustrated, after like 10 or so lost matches without a single win as well but I go like well if I can't go against them then I am joining them.

So staying alone for turret defense while the Reptards are having "fun" road fighting? No go.
Being the first one to rush and interrupt a bomb placement in voidstar, and then get CCed and focus fired to death? No go. Let others do it, but almost 100% of the times nobody is interested in interrupting.
Waiting for an enemy to finish a comrade in order to get an easy Assassin medal? For sure.
Becoming a medal hoarder (I like to call "medal-hor")? Definitely.

Leaving a game might give room to an optimistic player that would make the match last longer by attempting objectives and get the teammates more valor/medals than they really deserved.

Joining their style of playing is actually helpful in the long term since the other side will improve at a much faster rate and when the gear/skill disparity becomes really nasty then things may start to turn around because the human being mostly flourish in the face of adversity.

It reminds me of Gabriel in the movie Constantine:
" If sweet, sweet God loves you so, then I will make you worthy of His love. I've been watching for a long time. It's only in the face of horror that you truly find your nobler selves. And you can be so noble. So, I'll bring you pain, I'll bring you horror, so that you may rise above it. So that those of you who survive this reign of hell on earth will be worthy of God's love. "

losing should be painful. competition, true competition, depends on people despising the mere thought of losing.

if everyone is content with merely participating for the fun of it, the end result is perpetual mediocrity because there is no incentive or drive to get better.

i don't know about you, but i strive to always improve myself in whatever im doing, including my leisure activities. ill never accept 2nd best as being the pinnacle of achievement.

that's why i won't waste my time in clearly lost causes... but will put in the effort in a close match where both sides are evenly matched and its anybody's guess who will come out on top.

that's a challenge worthy of my time and effort... lost causes where defeat is inevitable are not.

kinda funny how retarded some people are. I guess you'll start caring when WZ doesnt pop for hours, or when they start merging the servers maybe? =d

In either case you might not care, but EA sure as hell does, if enough people quit (and they WILL) **** will either change or this game will go F2P like all the rest of other could haves.

Yeh I agree a Debuff or some punishment for abandoning should be implenemted asap!

ive been doing this long enough to recognize a lost cause early... many others have as well.
if i see my team throwing everything they got against the enemy team and getting steamrolled (this is assuming they're even paying attention to the objective in the first place)... me sticking around isn't going to help them... 1 decent player with 7 bad teammates against 8 coordinated players ends the same way as 7 bad players vs 8 coordinated players.
if during that same first few minutes of the match i hear "an enemy is unbeatable" 3 or 4 times... its a fair chance ill hear that another dozen times as my team throws itself at the enemy controlled turrets and fail to take them. again, not worth my time or effort.
if the enemy team plants the bomb within the first minute... lost cause. if it took my team the entire first round just to barely breach the 2nd door... lost cause.
some of us have limited time, or simply hate wasting our time. matches where there's a chance of winning are a different matter, but most of the time quitters leave the match because they see something that flips a switch in their head that tells them its a fail in the making. less experienced players are right less often, but more experienced players can recognize the warning signs of a wasted queue much more accurately.

yea, if they gave some sort of incentive to stay in lost causes, that would be different, but right now, i log in with a goal in mind, and that goal is not furthered by wasting my time in losing matches surrounded by mouth breathers with no coordination or concept of teamwork or objectives.
sorry, it sucks, but that's life. i ask nothing of others except that they put forth an effort when they're on my team... i don't expect anyone else to ask more of me. which means once im out of the team, what happens to the ones who remain is no longer my concern, just as what happens to me should be of no concern to them either.
again, i owe them nothing. they're not my guildies or friends. they're merely an ends to a means... as i am to them. if they can't pull their weight, i have absolutely zero reservations about leaving them to their fate... just as they should have no reservations about leaving me behind if im not pulling my weight.

i won't begrudge them their decision, they've got to do whats in their own best interest, just as i do. like i said, i don't know them and owe them absolutely nothing more than what i get from them.

No, I won't care then either cause people leaving a game has no effect on queue times. There are only a finite amount of people queuing warzones regardless of whether or not they stay in games or leave games. Queue times will be the same.

If you decide you don't want to queue anymore cause people leave, thats your decision. I don't care either way. Its good that the game allows you a choice on what to do.

Just accept that people leaving is the same as people getting killed in the warzone. Someone new comes in just like the other person would respawn and wait for the door to open and then come back. No difference really. If I stay in a losing game to farm honor, I really don't care who leaves or stays. I'm doing my thing either way. If I leave, people will still keep on doing what they are doing before I left.

Everyone takes it so personally when someone leaves a game. Who cares? You think you would somehow win the game with them staying? We all know that's not true and you are scapegoating the loss to the one who left the game.

What if someone dies alot? And the are always at the spawn point? You're still out a person till they come back. No difference.

You realize that won't stop people from leaving, or just medal farming instead or just afking around. And it won't change the game from being a loss. If the team is just pit fighting or medal farming in the middle, I'm still leaving even with a debuff. Thats 15min I can do something else than to have to hang out in the warzone that is a loss anyway.
People take it too personally when someone leaves their warzone and get all emo about it.
