So as of today we punish players leaving matches and here are my thoughts
-
Unintentional leaving (such as due to crashing or disconnection) is still punished, which shouldnt be. Devs, players are not supposed to be punished when you make unoptimized maps loading with useless assets, consider the possibility of benchmarking maps before they are green lighted. I have no idea if Reconnect ability negates punishment, which should be.
-
The system is Incompatible with the prefered maps system, I still dislike some modes and maps and I wish for more amounts of Dislikes, please avoid making new maps, the latest additions are really bad. Kindly increase the number of dislikes so we can avoid more maps have little to no reason to leave based on mode/map preference.

Queueing must be strict, when I queue for NA put me in NA, donât allow for chances to place me into a diff region, one reason why people quit is due to bad ping or connection.
Also a weird consequence, because youâre forced to stay, I encountered interesting characters
People straight up using Micro to not get kicked and just stay in one spot the whole game, pay attention to the last player. If Iâm being honest, this should incur players who are doing absolutely nothing to be punished more than leavers. Bots play objective, these players do not.
Iâve played this game close to 3 years, bottom-fragging should be your priority of punishment. Most of the time, I dont mind leavers, they are replaced with bots that atleast play obj, these bad players spoil the experience more.

stop making new maps
Lmao, no. New maps keep the game fresh and give more variety. Also Wald is solid from what Iâve played
Give more dislikes
Honestly when I went through the like/dislike system Iâve not even used all mine. Do yall like only want to play on 2-3 maps or something? But sure, I guess they could bump it up.
At the end of the day, most other PvP games have desertion penalties, and rightfully so. Players leaving screws over the rest of the team. Youâre agreeing to play a team based game, so donât quit on the teams.

There will always be deserters, no penalty they could realistically impose will change a thing. The 20% penalty is a complete joke if youâre a vet who has your squads maxed and TTâs finished. So what, I get less experience or silver? 
The only penalties that would work are suspension and banning, but neither help the player base when we are already told their arenât enough players. So, penalties are not going to work.
No one wants to address the reason people desert. Some desert because they just donât wanna be someoneâs cannon fodder, some play till the end then desert since they donât want to take a loss on their game rank or win loss percentage and some because they lose power or internet connection. The main reason I used to desert was when I wanted to play level three Allies but got tired of having to face level five Japanese all the time, so that was an instant desertion as soon as I saw the first level five weapons scrolling on the kill list.
Do away with the Rank system, do away with the win loss percentage, give solo players a choice as to whether they want to play against only other solo players, or donât care where they can play against groups. Me personally, I have said this several times but if there were a selection box to choose before you start the game, I would choose to play solo only. Less seal clubbings when groups play groups and solo players play other solo players.

right now Im trying to do bp mission which is âcapture 1 pointâ and this is my 4. or 5. match and game keep giving me defending missions, and if I try to desert before match starts I get -20 lmao

I just instantly get rid of capture point objectives for that exact reason, I will literally never get an attacking side or the one time in your life you want a conquest map while that objective is on. Remind me of how in WT, they increase the rate of deathmatch type gamemodes instead of capture points during task based events to artificially slow down the task grind.

See its even funnier, because the serial deserters its meant to deter, dont care about it, they already have everything unlocked, to them this is just a funny little modifier, a modifier that means nothing as long as your in a winning match as is.

Not really.
When i leave i get replaced by a bot that would have more motivation to play than if i was forcing myself to play a match i dislike or know wont be enjoyable (which i have done when playing in a squad) come back or not if i didnt have fun i dont really care and would much rather have been in the next match already.
