Opponent Disconnecting
Can something be done about opponents getting their * handed to them and then disconnecting when they are about to lose? It happens all the time. Maybe a disconnect resulting in double medals and poi...
Forum Discussion
Disconnect doesn't change win or loss. Tho a disconnected player's troops are on autopilot mode but if you can't clear them off the pad you can still lose.
Well, okay, you still need to win the battle. With an opponent who is not doing anything anymore, especially not producing any new units, this should be extremely easy to do.
It's like a free throw in Basketball. If you don't score, it's your own fault.
- Okay, urban myth here, so time to break out the mythbusting gloves!
Myth:
If I DC from a game, and check my played game history later, it doesn't show up, so it doesn't count against me!
Truth:
The game still results in a loss once your opponent beats you in the game you abandoned. However, your app doesn't know to check for this data, so it never populates the game in your history. However, if you close the app and open a fresh one AFTER the game has ended, the app will load the proper history including any games you abandoned and lost.All streaks are broken correctly after the loss, and DC'ing from a game will not preserve any win streaks.
TL;DR:
There is no benefit from disconnecting from a game.

There is a benefit from disconnecting... moving on to another game. I disconnect from challenge battles all the time... if I am in a challenge battle with an opponent twice my strength and with units I cannot combat, why waste my time continuing? I forfeit the battle, accept the loss, and move on to the next (hopefully winning) battle. No body wants to sit thru a battle they have NO chance of winning....there does need to be a white flag button tho, but people would probably complain about that too...

Even worse. A free layup. Like seriously, complaining about losing to someone who is t playing can’t possibly be a real thing.
