I'd like the option to deploy as a reinforcement force, with an increase in rewards for taking on a difficult contract.

so back in the day it was fairly common to join matches that were halfway over and it was a pain however since there was a big outcry against it something was done to supposedly prevent it

but now I have been seeing way too many half finished matches that I am getting placed in and its getting really annoying especially because I always end up on the team that isn't even trying

now a simple fix would be to allow players to choose what matches they could join but only ongoing matches that are missing people rather then forcing everyone that queues up to have to deal with it and have no choice in the matter

I bring this up in GD because I am not sure if it is just me experiencing this so I would like to hear from everyone else to see how common it is as I haven't seen many people complaining about it yet

Plus if we had a server list it would make qsyncing so much easier.

TBH if i didn't know any better, I'd say that CCP ninja brought back the deploy into matches that have already started to stop people whining about not having full teams.

We only have ourselves to blame for this. But most importantly, let us point our fingers at the people who leave battles.
FOR SHAME!

I have been trying to get alternative solutions to matchmaking out there so that perhaps one of them will be accepted enough to be added to solve the underlying issues a reinforcement option to me seems like the best plan of action

We can only hope a good solution will be picked from the pool.

Booom +1

I love joining a match where the enemy has just began redlining my team, as long as your team responds to you flanking and getting hacks there can always be a comeback and a good fight, bonus pay for grinding these battles would be nice, as it is, you are paid less for being late lol

I agree with you completely

The only solution I see is to revert back to the old matchmaking system, you know back when Dust was fun.

Or that. Give us a minute to wait in the warbarge and prep for battle.

If they did reinforcement deployment, maybe scale the bonus pay based on difficulty. Bonus applied to EOM results.

Freshly started but short only a couple mercs: maybe 5% bonus

50% shield and/or short 3-5 mercs: 10%

Shields critical/down, armour >75%: 25%

Armour 75% or less: 50% (double if you actually win)

Numbers, obviously, open to debate

I actually prefer a flat amount something around 100k would be fair but I say only pay for the reinforcement if they mange to win rather then rewarding them for still losing and it also prevent some players from taking advantage of the system rather then having just anyone join so they can get better isk rewards

I think the main point of reinforcing would be to try to win instead of just going for kills or WP or only playing to get an extra % wing or lose

having a flat bonus means players are more likely to prioritize matches that they think they can win while the more skilled players can choose to play the matches that are more then halfway over to maximize the profit they can gain from reinforcing

I would like to refer to one of my previous posts where I go more into improving match quality for everyone

I 1v1'd immnuto earlier and that alone made him quit, not without sending a patronising GG mail first though, which just leave me to make 43 kills with the arr
