Blacklist late-join games when we have a booster

Just now I had a 200% booster and immediatly I get put into a confrontation with the first objective more than halfway done!
By the time I spawn we moved onto the next zone and I get put way back at the previous spawn points even tho there might be a rally point placed down and I could immediatly go into battle.
I’d rather wait 2-3 minutes for the servers to find me a match that isn’t a late-join.

Boosters seem like a curse and its more and more likely that there is a secret mechanic smuggled into the game where anyone with a booster intentionally gets constant late-joins or conquest matches.

Either make a major late-join match rework or just blacklist them when we have boosters.

Suggestions for rework:

-If the first zone is lost or captured / just a couple seconds (5s-10s) away from being lost or captured, that matches fate is sealed and funneling players into it isn’t going to change it much, unless the players are really pro. So don’t put players Into matches with the first objective done.

-If a late-join happens let us choose where we want to spawn, because there may be some rally points put down, but we just get forced back to the original spawnpoints.

-And for the third time: NO late-joins with boosters!!

At this point it’s intentional they don’t want you to level up they want you to level up is slow as physically possible not instantly

Hopefully at some point we will get the setting to “turn off join games in progress” like in warthunder.

But they will have to stop starting games with a couple of players before that can happen. Means longer ques

This weekend I had 230% booster. Spawned into a conquest match well under way and going the wrong way. The next few matches were the same. In each case, I believe I led the team but the team lost because, in Conquest, what can you do if you’re not playing in a stack and your team basically is not good. Absolutely nothing. Wait for the clock to run down. Fight for a battle hero award if you care. Have fun? Nope.

It really feels like it sometimes. I’ll get a real nice booster and end up in a losing match, even on campaigns when I’m playing the dominant faction. Very strange.

You ask too much. A balanced game never will be welcome in Enlisted. This is a good game, but with no attention by the DEVs.

Today I rung up the +300 XP for 3 mathes booster in battlepass.

I played 2 matches. In both, we lost. In both, I was a late join by at least 1 min and one was a complete mismatch. I played hard in both.

In total it took over 40 minutes. I knew within moments of each match that we would not win but stuck with it for (booster) reasons. It was not fun. It did not leave me satisfied or feeling good about Enlisted. It felt fine walking away from the third match of the booster. Late join to a match is cancer.

If this nonsense continues after the meta change that may be it for me. I really dislike nothing more than spawning into matches that have already started.
