If you desert more than, for example, 3 matches out of 5, you will be forced to fight and win in 3 matches of low priority matchmaking with NO earnings alongside and against other deserters.
-
No access to your tech tree before you fought and won all 3 matches.
-
Only available squad is 9 man rifleman with no perk at all from Germany and USSR.
-
The match will be set in a custom map where there’s little to no cover outside a few trenches (a la Kursk).
-
Each squad will wear stripped down basic uniform. Germans get Feldmantel M40 and winter fur hat while the Soviets get M41 Great Coat and ushanka
-
Everyone will be given ONLY damaged second-hand Kar98k and Mosin M91/30 with identical stats with canted iron sight, slow cycling, bad spread, and slow reloading. No other equipment will be given other than the rifle.
-
No access to vehicles whatsoever during this low priority match.

how about they introduce map preference first like they promised year ago… at least quarter to half of all desertion happen cause of shit map or mode.

lol this is the worst proposal to a desertion penalty seen so far.

Much better than straight up banning people for whatever duration. At least if you actually fought the few matches you can get unbanned asap.
But I digress, the problem is not the deserter itself but the matchmaking that suck ass.
good way to end to kill this game

Yeah maybe. I just think something like this would piss off a lot of people. Plus it would probably be a pain to implement.
And yeah I think you are right about the problem being the matchmaking. But also whenever the map/game mode choice is implemented, we’ll probably see fewer deserter.
Just no, however a lower priority matchmaker for frequent deserters could work in a less vindictive manner, where common deserters get their own place in the main queue, where they are more likely to be uptiered.
It would be a very basic karma system in that regard, players who fight to the end get rewarded with better matchmaking, players who desert more make up for the better matchmaker.
Now this wouldnt be every match now, but maybe say something like a 5-10% higher chance of being uptiered now.

Or just make the play other deserters, can’t recall the game but they ha an all cheaters server. That way you desert your end up in another deserter match. You keep deserting you end up forever playing other deserters.
I want to say it was H1Z1 but that might be the one where they forced all the cheaters to make irl video apologies for cheating to get their accounts back only to laugh at them.
I thought you were trolling but I wasn’t sure. Yeah that’d be a quick surefire way of ending this game, or at least getting rid of the casuals. And just like in almost every online game, the casuals make like half of the playerbase if not more.

It’s a preferential rule, not a guarantee.
Deserters will have to play the maps they’ve been deserting for anyway. 
So I fail to see how is that a good argumentation for not implementing punishments for desertion as soon as possible.
Desserters ussualy leave because of the map. They should add a system for that before they add tyranical rules about desserting
Because when I only have a 35 minutes of free time after a hard long day of work, then I dont want to waste it on Seelow Hights. Thats the only one I sometimes dessert because I get it so frequently because really dislike it.
I cant understand how you dont see this as an important factor

I will always leave when losing 1st objectives. because they sucks. not even trying and tryhard for the game.
sounds like a purgatory tbh and this solution to deserting problem is way to agressive dont u think?

- Not allowed to play game for a week.
And I guess this probably still better than the previous points.
