The top 30% of the leaderboard are quitting games early, including me

Exactly this

Some people just cant stand losing to better players. They rather quit hard matches and farm new players/bots in games where attackers cant even cap first point.

This post was about quitting early because of being FORCED to be teamed with the massive numbers of new console players. I was asking for PC players to have the same option to turn off cross play as the console players already have.

What a laugh, I was the OP and my post had ZERO to do with losing to better players. In fact, I would welcome that because we all learn by being challenged. There has been zero challaenge playing against new older generation console players. I just want to be able to tur off cross play.

Did you read the OP? This is about being FORCED to play with the mass of new console players. Your screenshot doesn’t have anything to do with that. For all anyone knows, you had zero console players on your team

@Shiivex…Your screenshot shows ZERO controller icons. Either you are off-topic, didn’t read the OP r are a console player yourself.

I quote my self because of “berlin its the only campaign worth to fight untill the end” on my original answer. Was to add to it.

And no, I do play on pc with keyboard and mouse.

Maybe for people who constantly leave since leaving can be important to keep one’s sanity, like if a team is Barely even trying to play the game then why should I stay around?

If you play on PC, Berlin must not be popular with the new console players because not having a single console player is unheard of for me. Try Normandy for a few games, then you might have a better idea of the current mess.

Berlin isn’t avaiable on older Gen consoles. Neither Moscow as far as I remember.

Good to know, thanks

Some people, do work. Some people make with their work more money than the next say 10 people one may meet at grocery shopping. So if you work 12hrs per day, 6 days a week, to a total of 72hrs a week and earn a good living tho; you may be one of these people who play just 1 hr per day this game while boost progress by spending 1000 € a month on gold alone because “you just have it anyways”.
Afterall, I pay 150€ alone for dual Gigabit unmetered, unshared homeline.

cool wall of text ( i mean, not really. i’m being sarcastic as it’s irrelevant to be honest ) .

money or not, leaving matches wont do you any good, and no exscuses can actually " cover " or justify the act.

I can’t say I’m always in top 30%, but I quit early if

  • map doesn’t have capturable points and I’ve got BP task to capture strategic point
  • accidentally queued wrong faction because I’m a derp (no, I don’t have option to join either side)
  • something comes up irl

Why would you think that a person’s income has anything at all to do with quitting games early that people feel are a waste of their time.
Not that it matters, but I don’t work, am in the top 5% of income in my country (got lucky with timing of the stock market just before the pandemic) and I DO quit games that I feel are a waste of my time.
My point is that income has NOTHING to do with quitting games early.
I also turn off movies before they finish if they are a waste of time and get off the highway before my exit if there is a lot of traffic and another road would be better to get me where I want to go.
Money has nothing to do with any of these.

wrong person buddy.

perhaps talk about it with the other dude.

not me.

Not you?

yeah?

it was answering to his smart post.

read.

You are impossibly stubborn…but I’m sure that you hear that all the time

sure buddy

I don’t see what the big deal is. Console players are easy to farm atm because they are mostly low level but still work as a sufficient meat shield. You just have to give some helpful communication and you can lead them to victory. I haven’t had much of a problem winning with or against them and it’s so much nicer playing against real humans compared to bots. Even if they are noobie and doing odd things, at least it is interesting or funny. Like it’s been cute to see them all building sandbags and barbed wire all over the place or trying wack strats to deal with things. Some of them aren’t even half bad. Had a pair of Stuarts tag teaming my panther and flanking instead of just rushing headlong like most PC players do.

The only time it’s bad is when one team is all console and the other mostly PC, but that is more because the PC players are usually a higher level with bigger toys and the balance in Normandy is brutal until you are at higher levels. In these cases the team would lose even if it was all PC due to the level unbalance. In these cases, it is up to you to carry hard, or drop if you aren’t able/willing.

I feel like nobody remembers what it was like being a low leveled scrub. Or you all started playing early so you never experienced just how mean being low leveled can be.
