A good feature that most new games incorporate to avoid the quitter mentality. NO ONE LIKES A QUITTER! Title edited to remove ALL CAPS - ElliotLH

@iiBullFrog Disagree.There are many reasons a player will quit, from real world commitments ( caring for a relative for example ) that will require a player to drop out.This isn't a competitive game either so bear that in mind also.

Please Add A Feature That Punishes Abandonment

At most a mild discouragement. Shouldn't be punishment for not wanting to play with a toy anymore.

@iiBullFrog I quit a match, if I’m not having fun. This could be because:

1) My team is getting steamrolled by the other team

2) My team is steamrolling the other team (= mega boring match to be in, even though your side is winning)

3) I can’t get into a squad that has at least 1 person who is PTO + being a good squad and team player

4) My team have almost no players who PTO + are being good squad and team mates

5) The other team has a 100 star pilot who is raining hell down on my team constantly

6) There are 4+ clan members of the same clan on the other team, and I can see my side is losing tickets extremely quickly

etc.

@iiBullFrog Nay, nay and thrice, nay.

Punishment for what on many occasions, is 'life' is not a good idea.

Bring back 'quit %', that would suffice.

Quitting a 5v5 match affects the team more than quitting in a 64v64 match.

@iiBullFrog It's a "no thanks" from me too I'm afraid. Just don't see why it'd be needed more than anything else.

Also I've edited your title to remove the all caps.

@VOLBANKER_PC 1) So you only enjoy the game when your team is winning? Are you a winning team joiner?
2) Switch sides and help out the losing team?
3) Make your own squad and encourage others to join.
4) As long as they're winning, who cares?
5) There are so many tools to your disposal to get rid of a pilot. Why not use them?
6) Same as 1.

Hi @iiBullFrog ,
Though think most players do not like to see another team player quit the game, then we should not forget what it is: A game. A pleasure time engagement for joy and entertainment.
It is not a professional job for the vast majority of us. None are obliged to stick around for it. Not all are lucky in this world and have maybe a medical condition that needs attention. Also many of us being blessed having a family around, friends around and also real jobs that needs and deserves our time and attention.
Certainly I always consider that health, family and friends should have priority above anything else here in life.
So instead of negative punishment, then think instead of increasing the rewards for those that do complete the game rounds. It is much better to encourage positive behaviors with incentives. Those that do have to take care of their health, family or job will leave the game round no matter what silly penalty scheme you may come up with.
