I’m a fan of -20% XP for the next match if you desert. This would stack all the way up to 100% for the following match played.
and this would stack up to dead game. there are many reasons why people desert and not fixing them and instead punishing people would just make people more frustrated with the game till they quit.
Not until they let us choose the maps and gamemodes we want to play. Before that i will be leaving every train escort that i get
Its not. 100% is the minimum level of boost card that it takes for keeping me in a game no matter how fucked up it is. And since “join any faction” pretty much mean losing game. I think we need at least +100%
Because we already don’t have enough players. and deserters are not a small part of our little player base.
Games should punish nobody. Higher reward is the way to go
They want to leave. Let em leave. They should uninstall really.
Better way to go about it.
Forgive me because my sarcasm wasn’t understood lol (my bad) if they work on better matchmaking, I think that would help the desertion problem. They need to look into some serious SBMM, but I don’t think they want to do that until they get tier for tier matchmaking working the way they want.
Then they should at least provide a 25% bonus if you stay throughout the entire match. Said match bonus would only kick in when you’re over a certain score, say 750. This way people that join mid-match aren’t screwed out of a bonus. So you would get base XP plus a small bonus for the number of matches you did where you got stomped by the enemy.
Looking at the whole bonus XP card thing, it would be smart to allow the player to choose when they want to use it. Specifically at the end of the match.
Agreed. Once many people figure out the game is just going to be another ass kick seal clubbing what is the incentive hanging around? Sometimes you can determine that within the first minute. 
Obviously, if your team is delivering the ass kicking you want them to stay, but you sing a different tune when it’s being administered to you.
Penalizing people will do nothing but piss them off. So, how bout everyone who participates gets the same amount of silver…WIN OR LOSE? If it is just a video game for people to have fun, then just pay the same win or lose? I would pay as how you finish on YOUR team, but pay the same percentage on both squads so obviously not everyone is going to get the same. But make it that you collect NOTHING if you desert. No coin, no experience, nothing. Get rid of the rank system as well as some people figure why waste my time losing a rank when I can quit and hope for a more favorable match. My two cents worth anyway. 
I’m dying over here after reading this. And yes I do second if you desert you collect nothing, No XP, no silver, etc. But if you do get stomped, The silver gain should at least be comparable if not the same.
This way it’s only a short-term debuff, you could bounce back the following match.

Yeah, people gotta have a reason to stay. I was at one time bragging that in almost two years I had only deserted once. Then shortly before they reworked the match making I started doing it a few times a week when I could see it was a hopeless cause and there was absolutely no joy. There was no incentive to continue, especially since breaking my computer or the monitor was becoming an option.
tell me what kind of MM is that? ffs now we dont even have enough players to populate all BR tiers for current factions and introduction of any other rule would just make game ghost town.
even if they had players for SBMM (which they dont), majority of people want the game to stay casual and not be competitive like CSGO, valorant. think that majority of people would rather want for game to go PvE than SBMM.
also it is impossible to introduce SBMM if in queue of one faction you have 50 marshals and in queue of other you have 50 privates. for it to be anywhere near plausible they would need to force any vs any (so no more faction v faction) or force join any on all players.
anything below 50% wont work cause winners automatically get 50% bonus.
