It is very frustrating to have to join half a dozen games just to find one where I am not joining midgame to a match where I am placed on the lopsided losing side.
Ideally, inflict a penalty on those that dont finish a match, those that leave before the end to prevent a loss (I am assuming that is why)
OR
Give me a check box when searching to opt out of games that are in progress
People leave for more than just losing the match, sometimes it’s due to the **bleep** server that you are on is just not performing as it should be. Just now, I was stuck on a server where the network graphs would indicate “l” have a problem, I stayed, I would get shot at by guys with non snipers, 1 hit would take 80% HP instantly in 1 damage packet and I would require half a clip into someone to get a kill. I’ve played a few hours this morning, this was the first time the network graphs have popped up indicating a problem. Some of these servers are just **bleep** and really need to be closed down.
Haha I leave if there is more than one player using the grenade launcher on dom or the server is full of rats
I leave when I see populating with bots or I join a game with mostly bots.
But also people leave for all kinds of reasons.
In the mornings, ill end up leaving if a game is running to long and I need to get my butt out the door to go to work.
This title is broken on many levels, which is why the problems you describe arise. Funny enough, previous installments in the series didn't have these problems – the problem is the lack of knowledge, experience, and creativity of the staff (including the person overseeing it) to properly develop it.
Maybe it's time to change the people in charge, look at previous Battlefield titles, the systems models that functioned (actually) there, and incorporate them into the new title. Trying to invent something that already existed and worked is just a waste of time and money.
Players need new maps, grounded in Battlefield – large maps where tactical team combat can be played. Surely, many would pay for DLC with maps from Battlefield 3 or 4.
